Latest on us regarding Gareth Barry: http://www.dailystar.co.uk/football/view/325313/Arsenal-target-Gareth-Barry/

"Arsenal are willing to offer Barry a 12-month deal worth around £75,000 a week, with the option of a second year if he is a success."

Not sure how much truth there is to this but for a reported £4m, he fits into Wenger's budget buys and was once a player he liked.

Coming from the Daily Star I would hope that story is congruent with most of the bollocks they spout <ok>
 
Would anybody be up for taking Dzeko if city signed Jovetic ?
 
Top quality player not helped playing for a team like Man City. I have no doubt he would be a hit for Arsenal. Big, powerful, good technical ability and a great shot.
 
I think I'm just going to avoid all sports news through the week and just check it once every Saturday morning, it's too nice a summer to waste on stressing about bloody transfer speculation.
 
What's all this talk of some big reveal at the kit launch today, is it going to be the Bergkamp statue?
 
Giroud is too similar to Dzeko. If we get a striker it should be one in a different mold.

I agree (mostly) Higuain is a better deal because he can play down the right as well. I can see us hunting a goal in the last 20 minutes of a game with Cazorla-Giroud-Higuain or Podolski-Giroud-Higuain as the front 3.
 
I actually quite like Gervinho.
For me he's not a first choice starter but a good player to bring in off the bench.




On the striker front both Higuain and Suarez are just the right 'type'(and quality) of striker for our squad.
So Wenger could be doing the right thing with the Suarez bid - If Liverpool accept we land a TOP class player in Suarez. If Real Madrid react and outbid us then our chances of landing Higuaine massively improve.

Just been told by the Arsenal staff they&#8217;ve been ordered to deter fans from purchasing Number 4 Mertesacker shirts. #afc

Wonder who they are keeping number 4 for <whistle>
