    also injury prone

    also howler prone

    actually sounds like an ideal purchase - AW pull out all the stops to sign him up :smiley-finger007:

    Did you see the back heeled OG he scored against Liverpool ? That was utterly calamitous. Some of our defending has been woeful recently but that just took it to another level. We don't need **** like him anywhere near Arsenal.

    what i am saying is that he will be on a free and we all know how much AW loves a freebie.
    the fact that he is useless, prone to spending much of the season keeping the physio busy and when he does play will make howlers makes him almost unresistable to AW as that seems to be his dream type of purchase. i mean who would buy an injured player on the last day of a january window when you don't need to, when buying a decent striker is the right thing to do

    OUT:
    Bendtner
    Fabianski
    Sagna - dont want him to leave mind you (I just think its seems likley)

    IN:
    Casillas
    Coleman
    Bender
    Cavani/Costa



    -----------------------Casillas-------------------------
    Coleman-----Mertesacker----Koscielney-----Gibbs
    ----------------Bender------Ramsey-----------------
    -----------------------Ozil----------------------------
    Walcott-------------Cavani-----------------Draxler

    Bench: Giroud, Wilshere, Oxo, Carzorla, Monreal, Vermaelen, Sczezney
    Leaving Sanogo,Rosicky, Podolski, Arteta and Jenkinson to fight it out for places in the team.

    That would be a strong squad.

    Im not sure Coleman would leave yet, even if we could match whatever ridiculous fee Everton would want

    After watching the Real game last night I'd almost rather Reus than Draxler. Good lord he was a bit good!

    With the current situation I would agree.

    However if we show we mean business this Summer by adding another big name (like Costa or Cavani) it will be easier to build on that momentum and attract more top players.

    Different. Reus is more reliable and more direct. Draxler is more talented but more elusive.

    Would like either to be honest.

    Reliable and direct. Definitely want him then as those are two things our players currently lack!

    The biggest weakness would still be there though, and we'd still lose away to all the good teams playing tacticless football

    Bender would add some physicality to our midfield and that front three would blow teams away with pace.

    Casiilas - £15m
    Coleman - £20m
    Cavani - £50m
    Bender - £25m
    Draxler - £25m

    Thats £135m roughly you expect Wenger to spend in the summer.

    Oh dear... you do play to much Football Manager in your life <laugh>

    Arsenal needs to first secure a Top 4 place as Everton would overtake Arsenal, if they win the game in hand, before you go spending £100m for Arsenal <laugh>

    The biggest weakness in this current crop is lack of pace. When we have it, we're a different team. The problem with the Arsenal side is that we need all of our players to be fit to be at our best and that isn't good enough..
