Is available this summer on a free, everyone wanting a new midfielder, and many wanted him last season, so he would be a very good signing, and he's perfect for Wenger since he is free and Wenger would not have to spend a dime on a world class player. Hopefully Ozil can convince him to come in.
Would be a great freebee player but we would have to offload a couple of players. Is he a DM or a CM? He could play alongside Coqs but wjhat would come of Ramsey? It would give our Midfield more depth and variety having him in it. Also it would give Wenger a different strategy having him available.
Khedira's a top player, but I'd prefer Kondogbia to him. Younger with more potential. Less wages too.
Yup Khedira would be a great signing. Wouldn't be my first choice but he's a World Class player and would certainly improve our squad.
I'd take Khedira at Arsenal. He'd be a quality addition to the squad and on a free the club could well go in for him.
Nope, he is a player I think that would be great for you too, one midfielder I can see that can slot and suit your team. I also still think Di Maria is world class, but he just hasnt been WC for you guys other than a good spell when he first joined.
He REALLY is. Regularly starts ahead of Gundogan,Lars Bender, Sven Bender and Kramer for the German side. There are not many 6'4 midfielders with his level of technical skills. He's big, athletic and technically accomplished. He's just another example of Real Madrid mis-managing top quality players.
Khedeira really is overrated. I really wonder if people have actually watched him play at club level??? Ancelotti is a top manager and proven at the highest level in building a balanced midfield and yet he never rated Khedeira. No surprise that as soon as he took over Khedeira was sidelined, especially if anyone had been watching him for the previous 2/3 seasons. He'd be a good freebie but nothing more than a squad player for any top 4 side.
He is past it, has not looked the same player after that serious knee injury, his game pre injury was all about running and using his physical attributes to excel in midfield, now he has lost that he has struggled big time this season, Madrid were playing Ramos in midfield ahead of him, ffs. Also this guy might be free but his wage demands would probably make him the highest paid player at the club. Morgan Schneiderlin is our number one target for this position and has been since the start of January. Oh and Khedira is way too similar to Ramsey, he is basically just an older version of Ramsey without the goals.
You use so much hyperbole when you are bigging players up. I don't know what planet you're living on, but he is not even close to being remotely world class. Gundogan has had injury problems, the Bender brothers aren't that good and Kramer I honestly don't know enough about. But even so, just because he regularly starts ahead of those players, does not mean he's better than them. By the same token, you must think Fernando Torres is sensational for having 110 caps for Spain + starting regularly for del Bosque even after becoming ****e for Chelsea, Milan and Atletico. Managers have their preferences/favourites due to one reason or another and vice versa. Just look at Nasri being isolated from the French squad for falling out with the manager. He's big? Relatively. Athletic? You would expect no less from a player playing at the top level. Technically accomplished? Debatable. Even so, there is more to becoming a world class footballer than these few attributes as has been listed above. Frankly, I would steer well clear and will be disappointed if we do waste wages on him.
I don't think so. It really makes me laugh this forum and the reactionary responses based on a players current 'positions'. 3 Years ago - I suggested we sign Buffon because he's still 'World Class' - and got exactly the same response as now. Apparently he was past it. (he's just had another THREE incredible Seasons with Juventus) I also suggested Casillas is World Class last month. and Yep, I still think he is. Players hit bad patches of form and great players can be played out of position in roles that don't suit them. Also he hasn't flopped at Madrid like some are suggesting. If he's flopped then it would be fair to say Rosicky has 'flopped' at Arsenal. Khedira was considered one of Germanys brightest stars in a young squad that consisted of Ozil, Muller, Schweinstiger and Hummels. Joachim Loewe described him as "physically and technically exceptional". He's World Cup winner, A Champions League Winner, a Bundesliga winner and a La Liga Winner.. but again you're right I must be over-rating him and these things are just coincidental.
Irrelevant. Being right about one player does not mean that you're going to be right every single time. You've been wrong numerous times about several players that you've deemed to be 'top class'. You frequently go well over the top with your praise of players. World class is a term that is bandied about so often. Casillas was a very good goalkeeper. For whatever reason though, he has made a whole host of catastrophic, high profile errors both at club and international level. Does he have the ability? Maybe. But ability is irrelevant if you don't have the application and the mental fortitude to prove why you're one of the best. Casillas hasn't for a while now so he can no longer be considered a top class goalkeeper. The operative word being used here is 'was'. Past tense. His injuries and lack of game time will clearly hinder his ability to bed into the side straight away and when we need a player to challenge Coquelin's position or at times play alongside him, Khedira would be a waste of money. And please don't use other manager's words to justify your own reasoning. Otherwise you may as well give credence to Alex Ferguson saying Phil bloody Jones will be the best player in the Premier League. It's meaningless.
Khedira would still be a great addition to the squad, but do we really need him ? I'd much rather we went after Schneiderlin, Kongdogbia or one of the Bender brothers
