Mata Alvarez Subotic/Sakho Benzema/Falcao Enrique/Baines Going out: Nasri Bendtner Denilson Clichy(Going going gone) Squillaci Arshavin Now that's the kind of transfer business that would make Arsenal title challengers. Stop talking hopefully about the likes of N'Zogbia, Gervinho, Cahill and Samba.
Glad you agree with me. And, for the most part, these players aren't too unrealistic if we just spend the money instead of waiting until someone else buys them.
Yeah I was just thinking that, Mata-20 million, Alvarez-13 million, Enrique-15million, Benzema/Falcao-30 million. Subotic would probably be a bit unrealistic but the others are reasonable. We would probably get about 40 million from the other player leaving too.
Sakho would be a great buy I feel. The "leadership qualities" that people are looking to Samba for. This is a guy who captained PSG at the age of 17. He's the kind of player we want.
I want our team to look like.... ------szneznkey sagna--TV--Kos--Evra ------Essien fabregas-----Wilshere Messi---RVP-----Ronaldo
Mata would be fantastic. I don't know much about Alvarez I guess Subotic would be way too expensive/ Dortmund wouldn't let him go for a reasonable price. And besides, his partner Hummels is a lot better IMO. Benzema or Falcao would be great, but I don't know how Falcao would settle in the Prem. The difference is huge compared to Portuguese league and he might take his time to settle in. I would try Hulk. He is physically destined to play in the Premier League. Sakho would fit in We certainly need a left-back, price-wise Enrique should be the choice. Baines has a longer contract and the fact him being english will inflate the price anyway.
Love the look of both the signings and the departures (except Arshavin) but can't see any of the signings happening. Maybe Alvarez and Enrique.
Samba would be great addition for your team. Verminator (kinda new signing again) next season would be a huge boost to your team's backline and overall. Why is Cesc's name not there in your OUT?
Just looks like a list of players we have been linked with. Signings you want? How many games have you seen involving Alvarez? Did you know about him prior to us being linked with him? Sakho, how many PSG games have you watched? Seems like you hear a player linked with Arsenal, you tube him, fall in love with him and express your desire to see him in an Arsenal shirt!
I think Arsenal should sign Eden Hazard. Kid has some serious talent, and out of all the clubs, Arsenal has the best youth academy and ability to bring youth on. He is 20ish now, and would be very well suited to you guys. Would prefer to see someone like him go to Arsenal than the likes on Man City, Chelski or even Utd. Obvisouly would love him at Sunderland, but that aint going to happen! lol
D'jeezus, I don't see Alvarez as a starting player. I know enough of him to say he'd be more effective than Rosicky in the squad though. Sakho is a similar situation. And yes we have been linked with all these players but the alternative is listing Messi, Ronaldo, Neuer, Vidic, Alonso and Iniesta.
Out: Almunia, Denilson, Clichy, Bendtner, Vela, Traore. In: Given, Cahill, Mata, Benzema, Chamberlain, Baines, Alvarez (dont know much about him, but looks like he will be a good squad player). Keep at all costs: Van Persie, Nasri, Fabregas.
Being 20 and proven already, youth devlopment will be the last thing on his mind. Money and the opportunity to shine will be much higher on the agenda. Unlike a lot of the young players Arsenal sign, he'll be on very decent wages already and can quite reasonably choose to stay where he is if none of his suitors are to his liking. He's a senior player and would rightly expect to be treated as such. Academies are for kids yet to prove they can stand up to the speed and physicality of competitive football. Hazard quite clearly can. I don't know enough about him (despite lots of raving) to know who would suit him, but whoever it is, he's not a youth player.
