'How can Villa even shop in the same boutique with us?': Tribuna fans react to Arsenal's reported failure in Buendia pursuit

Everything indicates that Emi Buendia will join Aston Villa imminently. He was Arsenal's reported top target in the summer and fans are baffled by the outcome of the transfer battle. Some other insists that it's not the end of the world.

💭 Acadia U: "if this means we can get Jack Grealish to us, then fine. if not, then Arsenal have really disappointed me again."

💭 Ben Warner: "if we lose out to villa when Buendia wants to go to Arsenal... it shows Arteta's, Edu's and the board's incompetence."

💭 Cke Nizwan: "I will blame the owner if we fail. He holds the final decision to approve the amount of transfer fees. Without enough transfer funds, everybody will face difficulty to secure the targeted player."

💭 Wale Banmore: "If this story becomes real as our failure to get Emiliano Buendia, then nothing to cry about, because it's a familiar story to us in Arsenal.

"As much as we drag our feet in taking decisions when it matters most and stop checking on every potential recruit in the transfer market, so do we miss chances. It will be too bad a situation to fail to land in quality players then have to settle for remnants by end of the summer."

💭 Gav: "Please can someone explain to me how the fuck we can be beaten by Aston Villa to a player that apparently we really want! We are a laughing stock."

💭 David Omabukodo: "I don't believe this! And if it's true, then PROTESTS!!! How can Villa even shop in the same boutique with us? It's a reason to get irate with Kroenke already."

💭 haywhy: "When Gallas said Arsenal is not a big club, many fans were angry. U all can confirm now... We should stop living in past glory. Winning d Premier League can't happen in d next ten years with Kroenke in charge take it or leave it."

💭 Chidi Nwankwo: "Arteta said Stan Kroenke will support him. The question is in what way?"

💭 ITZ. F MADU BANG’S #07💯✅🇺🇸: "Lolz 😂 let’s chill out gunners Buendia is not Messi or Ronaldo. We still another player to sign the game is all about gambling."

💭 Cyrus Oyeniyi: "Guys, this is transfer time. I know we may feel bad but it is not the end of the world. We still have other targets, let's quickly get it done.

"This is not about money or outbidding. We all know that when it is transfer time, players may get it right or wrong let's wait and see. Let's go for Bissouma and Aouar quickly, next season Buendia WILL not replicate what he did this season. Cheer up, guys."
