All it says is that we want to keep him, but if we can't, we will sell him. Where's the news in that?
Squishy's problem was lack of pace and power - it was obvious to me, a player comfortable in the Spanish league coming to England lacking pace and power would struggle. I admit I didn't think he would as much as he did but people underestimate the football played in England. Its one thing watching it .. its another playing it.
Since the Scum are praying RVP leaves and with Vertonghen having second thoughts about joining them, I'd love for him to Join us just to spite them.
That would be excellent. I'm thinking of a list of wum signings, just to piss off the teams around us. we could go; Vertonghen (linked with spurs) Debuchy (Newcastle and Chelsea) L. De Jong (Liverpool) Feel free to add more.
France Football are reporting that the Giroud transfer is a done deal and will be finalised at the end of the Euros http://www.francefootball.fr/#!/news/2012/06/18/161017_giroud-aurait-choisi-arsenal.html
Yep that one is all but confirmed. Giroud was one of the players, I listed as a possible target at the start of this thread. Credit to Jeremy Wilson for alerting us to this possible transfer ages ago. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/fo...racks-Montpellier-forward-Olivier-Giroud.html
I never meant it like that as well. I did not even have a clue who he was. Think I heard his name mentioned somewhere before, but that's all.
