    We don't need to be spending 20 million on a GK. Especially when there are other, more urgent areas to improve the squad. Hell I'll even be controversial for a bit, I like our GK lineup. I still think Chez is our best GK on ability and when on form he does stuff like get Golden Gloves and he's saved our asses plenty of times in the past seasons, and even this season as well. I think the extended bench time will do him loads of good mentality wise. Ospina is a solid GK that not only provides good competition for Chez but also can step up when needed to. Martinez is a solid 3rd choice option and we have loads of youth GKs for the 4th choice and so on.

    They'll be upset anyways when he leaves for CL Footy.
    In other news the Palermo President has confirmed that we and Juventus made a bid for Dybala. And he also pretty much confirmed the lad is leaving in the summer. The question is to who?

    Personally would like a TOP quality DM and a goalkeeper.

    How about..

    Cech & Lars Bender.

    Very few on any page seem to make any comment about Muniain of Athletic Bilbao!! Here is a player, capable of taking on and beating defenders and setting up chances galore for his team-mates. He has a great work ethic as well. The same club also have Inaki Williams, the first black player to play for the side. Wonderfully talented, who I think is vastly superior to Sterling, and has a great temperament!!!

    GK and DM are our real prioritys.

    Point taken!! Arsenal seem blessed with decent attackers. Good luck for the run in, hope you guys reel in Chelsea and end up as Champions!! Didn't it happen when City reeled in Manchester United 3 seasons back??

    Thanks, would be amazing but I can't see this Chelsea team dropping many points.

    I particularly like the fact that they use his goalscoring record as a way of trying to highlight how effective he's been this season.

    I thought that - just what you want in a deep lying defensive midfielder - the ability to break forward and score goals!

    How long does he have left on his contract? If any more than a year then that £15m is clearly a load of bollocks.

    It's the Star so obviously the story is pure fiction.
    (it's unlikely a deal would have been struck at this point in the Season.)

    Would be a decent signing though.

    I hope we sign a Top class GK this Summer. Seeing what DeGea and Courtoise have done for Utd and Chelsea makes me realise we would be ALOT closer to the title with a top quality GK in the side.

    ----------------------Cech----------------------
    Debuchy---BFG----Koscielny---Monreal
    ---------Schneiderlin---Ramsey------------
    -------------------Carzorla----------------------
    ---Ozil------------Giroud--------Sanchez---

    Bench: Wellbeck, Wilshere, Walcott,Coquelin, Gibbs, Gabriel, Sczezney.
    - That still leaves Bellerin, Chambers, Chamberlain, Rosicky and Diaby fighting for a place.

    I would sell Flamini.

    I guess the place we look weakest would be CF but if Giroud keeps performing like he has since January it won't be a problem,
