Arsenal Fans Have The Defining Twitter Conversation Of 2015 Arguing Over Player's Age

The European summer soccer transfer season is barely underway but the rumors are flying fast and furious. Arsenal is strongly linked to FC Porto striker Jackson Martinez. The 28-year-old Colombian is a proven scorer in both the Portuguese league and Champions League. By most accounts he’d be a good fit at the Emirates Stadium.

What a time to be alive.
