    I think we'll sell Walcott this week. I just have a feeling, if we were re-signing him, we would have done it by now.

    To who though? None of the big teams are after him.

    He'll probably do alright at a club that doesn't come up against 10 man defence every week

    Would love Llorente at arsenal the guy is TOP class.

    Giroud is a good striker but the Spaniard is technically superior and would have been a much better option for us IMO.
    Who knows maybe Wenger will sign another forward.

    If he does, signing someone so similar would be a waste. And I don't know how technically superior he is, he might have a better volley in him but not much else to judge them apart. Giroud seems to have the better striker's instinct IMO from what I've seen.

    Llorente has scored some beauties but he isn't the most efficient striker of all.


    If we'd signed Llorente instead of Giroud and he'd went 2 games without converting chances people would be talking about another identical striker to add to the team... (possibly Giroud <laugh>).

    Llorente is an efficient striker. I saw a stat which showed that it took him half the number of shots to score a goal, in relation to RvP.

    Llorente and Martinez were left out of bilbaos squad tonight. Looks likely both are about to move.


    Martinez would be a ****ing great signing.

    Falcao just got a hatrick against Bilbao. No chance of us signing him but he is so good, amazing player.

    There's another 5 million added to his price tag.

    Don't think we'll buy him but a midfield of Cabaye Arteta Cazora could work well without a dedicated DM

    I'd prefer Tiote to Cabaye. Wenger apparently said we weren't in for Tiote, which typically in wenger-speak means we're trying to sign Tiote.

    The <whistle> did not clue you in that I'm joking. QPR beat us last season that doesn't make them a big club.
