    Is Lars significantly better than Sven?

    I'd say so. He's more mature, more talented and more versatile. Both are damn good though, it's just we should aim to get Lars.


    Also, RAWK have apparently banned any mention of Sanchez <laugh>

    Looks like betting has been closed on Sanchez joining. We're at evens to sign Remy...

    Remy would give us a second option, so he'd do. Now time to get that DM.

    He's the polar opposite of Giroud, gives us a Plan B. Imagine Ozil's through balls with Remy's pace and finishing....

    Remy would work well with Giroud playing all those flicks he likes. How often does Wenger ever play 2 strikers though...

    But wasn't we after a top striker? Remy isn't exactly top 4 quality. Also, does he offer something better than Walcott?

    Walcott's too small for teams with orc CBs

    I get the feeling Wenger's considering using Alexis as our main CF, so that's our top striker.

    More likely Giroud will continue as our main striker and Sanchez will play on the left

    I think so too, but this would mean Giroud goes to the bench if we go 4-3-3. Unless of course we go 442 and play Sanchez off Giroud.

    I'm really looking forward to next season now, can't wait to see Rambozez in action.


    That takes us up to 3 1/2 World class players (Ozil, Sanchez, Koscielny with Ramsey as the half)

    And we're still linked with Khedira, so there could be more.

    I don't know if the Lemsip's messing with my brain, but i'm feeling strangely optimistic about next season...

    It's just a shame that if we have so much quality in midfield and on the wings that we have Giroud in the middle.

    Twitter rumour that we were in the race to sign Mandzukic but a deal couldn't be done.

    Athletico really know their **** when it comes to strikers.

    Mandzukic
    Diego Costa
    Falcao
    Sergio Aguero
    David Villa
    Llorente
    Diego Forlan
    Fernando Torres
    Jimmy-Floyd Hasselbaink
    Christian Vieiri

    For a 'medium-sized' Club that's some list.

    Shame we couldn't get that done, it would have been an upgrade.

    There I was worried that the whole place was going to change to butterflies and sunshine, because Han had been converted, and then you restore my faith in the dark side!
