My approximation was far closer than yours, my dear ... Now please apologise for laughing at me when I first quoted £11m.
We should not look at it as replacing Gerrard, we should just look at what the squad needs and add it. One of those things however is experience and maturity. A player who has been there, done that, played in huge games and won big things. Unfortunately in this scenario our recruitment policy will not allow us to spend big on older players, and I do think we need an older player here. But the free market offers 2 decent options this summer; Khedeira or Milner. I'd take either or both. In o Other than that our team needs either a dynamic DM or CB (depending on how Can progresses), a better and more style appropriate style (looks likely to be Ings), and better midfield depth (as mentioned above, Milner). Mignolet has improved. But a new GK still looks like a requirement at the moment. But lets give Mignolet some time to see where his improvement takes him.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has contacted the agent of Real Madrid star Sergio Ramos over a potential move to the Emirates Stadium, it has been claimed. Ramos, 28, has been with Los Blancos for almost a decade, having arrived from Sevilla for £20million in 2005. However, recent reports have suggested that Ramos could soon leave the Santiago Bernabeu, with contract extension talks reportedly having reached an impasse. And according to AS journalist Manuel Esteban Manolete, Gunners boss Wenger has contacted Ramos' representatives to gauge his interest in a possible move to north London. "Wenger has called Rene Ramos, the agent and brother of Sergio Ramos," he told radio show La Goleada. Wenger this week admitted that the Gunners defence lacks leadership - having seen them concede late to Liverpool on Sunday. “They should be talking, yes," said Wenger on his defence. "Maybe they do talk but it doesn't look like that when you look at the pictures. Of course it’s important to have someone organising. "You want somebody to take the leadership there." - Ramos could be the perfect partner for Sakho, would add the experience we'll loose with Gerrard and will give the club the super marquee it will obviously crave after loosing Gerrard, Suarez, Carragher and Reina. Could be worth a go.
Not a chance of this happening. Ramos will be look for at least £120k per week and we won't go anywhere near that amount.

Have they just novated the agreement to New Balance? Or have we renegotiated? If it's the former, what is the point of re-hashing old news, wasn't the £300m deal with warrior a few years back? It's still the same agreement!?
