If we sign Jonny Evans we might as well get Van Persie back. Why are we settling for this, we want world class players not failed players.

Imagine you meet a girl, fall in love, get married & when she gives birth, the baby is Jonny Evans
That’s what it’s like supporting Arsenal

When Arsenal fans hear they’re interested in signing Jonny Evans for £16m… #AFC pic.twitter.com/2wg1qp0kme

@Ladbrokes I think we have to stop comparing to 5 years ago, £16m is peanuts now!

If Wenger signs Jonny Evans I’m supporting United until he leaves.

But this West Brom supporter is not at all impressed.
As if Arsenal fans are laughing at the prospect of having Jonny Evans. They don’t deserve him. ?

some of the Manchester United fans looks even a bit annoyed.They too seem to have taken offence with Gooners for being such snobbish about their former defender, with many strong opinions suggesting that the 28-year-old is underrated.
Well, Evans has won three Premier League titles, as well as the Championship with Sunderland in 2007.
If Jonny Evans was named Jonatan Evansinho Arsenal fans would be creaming their kecks. A key part of a title winning team too…

Certainly what Arsene Wenger needs is a safe bet. He is looking for an experienced player who knows the Premier League and will do the job asked of him.
Maybe, the Arsenal fans frustrated because they want more inspiring signings further forward.
But, when it comes to centre-backs, exciting is not what you want!
