    Kaka + one of Benzema/Di Maria/Ozil, along with Flamini would be good additions to the squad. Still need to add another 1 or 2 more imo on top of that though.

    Will be great if we can get one of the main 3, they are all top talents who would improve our first 11.

    So Kaka, Di Maria, Drax, and a CB (We only have 3 ATM)

    We ain't getting a CB, Wenger's content now, with signing Flamini, and with Sagna able to play CB.

    We need another central midfielder, getting Kaka-Di Mari ain't enough, and as of yet, nothing's happened.

    If we sign Kaka, Di Maria and Draxler i'd be feeling much better about our squad depth. But i still think we need another striker.

    Yeah. Sanogo and Akpom are too raw. I'm sure we'd still have enough to pull a striker

    I'd be happy with three or four signings: One of Di Maria/Ozil, Draxler and a striker and/or a goalie.

    ****'s going down of Monday. Tomorrow is all about reminding Spurs about the pecking order (We could be in 2nd if we win 5-2 again <ok>) And then Monday we can all give ourselves near heart attacks.

    I've just been contacted by a very reliable source and he's given me 4 names
    They are Di Maria,Cabaye,Guaita and the forward from Juve

    I'd take that. Maybe we could sneak in Kaka on loan

    Just done a quick twatter search and rumours going round that we are close to agreeing a deal for Cabaye for around £14m and that we have either made a bid, or had a bid accepted for Di Maria. I've seen that Guita guy is mentioned by a few people as well. And an un-named striker.

    So if those where true and we get them done we would end up with: Striker X, Di Maria, Cabaye, Flamini, Guaita + Sanogo. Which is a: CF, LWF, CM, DM/RB, GK - exactly what people have asked for. Is it just people filling in the gaps or is there anything to these rumours? Who knows!

    I think all of Flamini, Di Maria, Cabaye and Guaita are of a good enough standard and i'd be pretty happy about getting them in. I'm interested to see what striker or strikers we try and go in for on Monday though... I really hope it isn't that Juventus striker, i think Giroud is a good striker and we need to get someone in who is better than him and i'm not convinced this guy is the answer. We either need someone very clinical or someone who can go past his man, because Giroud does the other stuff well.

    I hope we get these deals done. Or we get players of asimilar (or better) calibre. Di Maria is the one i'm hoping for most, he is a quality player.

    If striker options are wearing thin would you guys take Torres? I still think he has something to offer. Don't think he is the answer to our striking issues but if its getting later and later on Monday and we don't have a striker i'd take him to give our forward line some depth.

    Think with E'too there one of the other strikers is likely to leave.

    Not sure why we're after Fabio Quagliarella. He offers work ethic, but he's not a great goalscorer, i'd much rather sign Vucinic than Quagliarella.

    Di Maria and Guaita would be decent, not sure on Guaita on aerial balls, but he's a top shot stopper.
