Reports from Germany are suggesting that Arsenal have had a €23million bid for Lars Bender turned down
I like Fellaini but I agree Bender has greater potential. In Fact both the Bender's(LOL) are going to be TOP quality. I also think Strootman could be a great signing if Wenger is going after younger DM/CM's. He's a younger, bigger, more athletic version of Van Bommel.
I don't think WS would do that, as he is an Arsenal fan, and loves the club. Plus he's still very young, so it's not the end of the world for a young GK to get relegated to the bench for a while, many older GK's have often had to deal with it too when their form dropped.
More Cesar rumours from the Guardian Also Ancelotti has now apparently sanctioned Higuain's move to Arsenal http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2013/jun/30/arsenal-julio-cesar-qpr
I love it when the ****wits have to hastily edit their comments to try and prevent themselves looking like twats, unfortunately for notso, he was a lost case a long time ago
Ever get the feeling the club deliberately puts an insultingly low bid in for a player, just to have it rejected on purpose, just so they can say "at least we tried".
You think we're seriously interested in players like Higuain, Fellaini and Bender? If we were serious about Higuain, it would have been completed by now.
I think we're serious about Higuain, he fits the bill for what we need. It's totally plausible that any deal would have been held up due to Real being without a manager until now, let's see what happens. I certainly don't think that Arsenal put in 'deliberate' low bids, knowing they'll be rejected in order to try and appease a few whinging fans though, that would just be a waste of time and effort.
