Gooner's looking to sell half their team to buy Hoilett...

Discussion in 'Tottenham Hotspur' started by Hoddle is a god, May 23, 2012.

  1. "Arsenal will offload seven stars including Nicklas Bendtner, Denilson, Sebastien Squillaci and Johan Djourou to free up cash to bid for Blackburn's 21-year-old winger Junior Hoilett."

    (Source: The Daily Mirror)


    How can anyone take this article seriously when the word "star" and "Bendtner" are used in the same sentence?

    Honestly, is there any one of those players that we would buy?

    Exactly.

    The story implies one of either...
    a.) They're expecting to pay through the nose for Hoilett, hence the need to sell four players
    b.) They're expecting those four players to cost as much as a player they can pick up for around £5m

    It's a misprint!

    Should read: Gooners are looking to put half their team in the toilet.

    It would be great if he came to us, instead of the Goons.

    i think he's free to move via tribunal fee because he's young or something like that. So he's free to discuss with other clubs, but not actually free.

    If Squillaci, Djourou, Bendtner and Denilson are the ones that actually get named, who the **** are the other three?! <yikes>
    They already released Almunia, the other Hoyte (neither's any good) and a bunch of fringe players, so who's left?

    Zenit St Petersburg, HD.
    I thought he'd been sold, to be honest.

    PNP - They're working on it apparently.

    Bendtner to Dortmund is a surprise, after a domestic double you'd think they'd be looking to strengthen! :)
