Speaking of central midfielders, do we really need another one? I certainly don't think Cabaye is any better than the options we have, is Cabaye really better than Ramsey, Arteta, and Flamini? Credit to Ramsey, his excellent performances has eased that great need we had of signing a new central midfielder, and with the addition of Flamini, I don't think the central midfield is a priority anymore, especially if it means getting Cabaye for 13-15 million since I don't think he's better or should start ahead of any of the 3 we already have.
Exciting news if true, however, we really need a striker. Not because Giroud is awful but because we have absolutely no depth in that position and if we don't sign a striker, knowing our luck due to an injury or suspension we'll have Sanogo up front until Christmas.
Yup, even Giroud said we should sign another striker, we don't want to be in another situation of placing too much onto the shoulders of one striker with no depth, like with RVP few seasons back.
Twitter's gone mad with rumours. I've see Stephan El-Sharaawy, Abel Hernandez, Mattia Destro linked to us. Looks like we're looking in Italy
Yea, unless it's someone excellent like Kondogbia or Khedira, there's little point in getting a central mid now.
According to MOTD we are on the verge of signing Ozil.... If this is true he will be fantastic in this team and league.
Right, lets not get carried away. Lets be miserable as possible, try and downplay this, in case it doesn't happen. No point getting excited, we have a knack of blowing transfers (Mata)
I am quietly confident that i'll be proved right about waiting until the end of the transfer window and Wenger suprising you all I look forward to the groveling apollogies from those who have called me delusional etc for keeping faith that we will make top signings.
Cadena Sar (don't know who the **** they are, friend forwarded it) that we have agreed a deal with Madrid of 45 million Euros plus 5 million add ons.
I fully expect us to have deals for Jermaine Jenas and Fabio Quagliarella, and Manuel Almunia on a free transfer return done tomorrow then
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23924776 - according to the article we are also still interested in Benzema and Di Maria....
It will be so sweet if the spuds selling Bale to Madrid enables us to get Ozil and possibly Di Maria or Benzema
Even if Ozil comes in, it's been a shambles, to the point that Wenger has said they'll have to over-pay to get players. Ozil would be great. Without a striker, say hello to Nicky B getting appearances before Christmas.
After everything we have gone through this summer, I just can't muster up any excitement over these Ozil rumours.
