June 22, 201411 yr I'm getting quite interested in what Mr Wenger's plans are tbh. Intrigued to know what he does. Giroud's having a good WC, so is Benzema. Campbell looks quality ( should have had a pen against Italy I reckon.) Balotelli? Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger 'to meet Mario Balotelli's agent in Brazil to discuss £25 million transfer' http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/mario-balotelli-transfer-arsenal-boss-3741478#ixzz35LjBq7uh I wish I could find that pic of Arsene doing a remarkably good impersonation of Mr Bean.

June 22, 201411 yr Anyway. Balotelli is sh*te according to a UNITED fan on here. Can I convince him Wenger could do with him what Rodgers did with Suarez? Like hell I can. If Mourinho wants him, he will get him.
June 22, 201411 yr Yep. That's the one. ( Don't worry about carmine. He'll be too busy arguing the toss with some ignorant to**ers on the World Cup Forum thread.)
June 23, 201411 yr gut reaction , shaw wont be moving. For £30m any club buying him will need to be insane. So off to Chavski he will trot.....
June 23, 201411 yr gut reaction , shaw wont be moving. For £30m any club buying him will need to be insane. So off to Chavski he will trot..... It's possible I suppose. But mourhino has said he'd prefer Albert Moreno from Seville at £18m ish. Liverpool also chasing him still? Not sure what the situation is atm. Chelsea cannot go crazy because of FFP btw.
June 23, 201411 yr Would rather have Benzema than Bagutelli but regrettably I reckon Benzema will show up at Liverpool. Seems like Arsene is having a mare of a Summer scrabbling around for someone half decent to fulfill promises, but who knows when all we are relying on is back page journos (mostly at the scaly end of the scale). Seems like you only get the best out of Bagutelli if you build your team around him. I was going to say that the current line-up doesn't work that way and neither does Arsene but on second thoughts previous great teams were lined up purely to feed Henri (less so Bergkamp)

He's a miserly old <deleted> to be sure. Giroud and the BFG probably had to hold him by his legs upside down to get the dosh to buy Ozil.

Netherland's World Cup defender Ron Vlaar, 29, is being tracked by Queens Park Rangers following uncertainty over his future at Aston Villa.Birmingham Mail Rio Ferdinand has agreed to join Queens Park Rangers after 12 years at Manchester United. The former England defender, 35, will link up with Harry Redknapp, the manager who gave him his first start at West Ham. Daily Mail Welcome back to the big stuff.
June 24, 201411 yr Southampton's new boss Ronald Koeman has rattled Manchester United by increasing the price tag on England left-back Luke Shaw, 18, by £10m to £40m.Daily Mail I think rijit's gut feel might be right. He won't be coming to Chelsea at that price.

So you like managers who flash the cash around like it's easy money do you? Good for the future of football are they? Aren't you some of the guys who have previously commented favourably on Arsenal's financial probity?

Aren't you some of the guys who have previously commented favourably on Arsenal's financial probity? Having a bit of fun Santi. I respect Wenger and I like his style of play. I do think it would be in Arsenal's best interest if he targeted a few more "pricey" players. Supposedly he has the cash to do that now. If he doesn't get a decent DM with pace and technique then Arsenal fans ought to throw a fit. Not that high quality DMs grow on trees but some are out there. If you rely on Flamini and Arteta to close down some of the high octane attacks in the EPL you are just asking for trouble.

He won't be coming to Chelsea at that price. I doubt he will be going anywhere at that price! Interesting to see how he does in the Costa Rica game. Only 18. But class in the Prem. Worth watching I reckon. Few more seasons at Southampton I guess is most realistic?
June 24, 201411 yr arsenals defensive midfeild lacks power could be argued they've never replaced veirra, song seemed the nearest, and that gives you a clue how faraway they' ve been.
June 26, 201411 yr Fernando: Manchester City sign FC Porto midfielderFernando and Fernandinho. It's going to get very confusing with all these Brazilians in the Prem. BBC Sport.
June 27, 201411 yr Agree with all the comments, except the presumption that Wenger is going to do nothing (serious money) about the DM position and the implication that Arsenal fans might not throw a serious hissy fit if he fails in that task. We never know what is going on in the background with Arsene so no news at this stage is not necessarily bad news for us. Arsene must be worried by the lack of performance by Wilshere in the Costa Rica match.

June 27, 201411 yr Author Brentford land Leyton Orient starlet once targeted by Tottenham Lilywhites missed a bargain (honestly)........but BRENTFORD!!! http://talksport.com/football/brentford-land-leyton-orient-starlet-once-targeted-tottenham-14062798845? Seems like sell out time at Brisbane Rd, not just players but the club to an Italian. Probably change back to blue and become Napoli Orient......might be able to use that Balotelli chap down there.
June 30, 201411 yr It is like looting. Southampton sell player after player. And manager is gone as well. Making a lot of money, but can they replace the players who leave?
