Arsenal and Tottenham are battling to sign QPR striker Loïc Rémy, however, the Frenchman prefers Arsenal
I wonder why that is

 

This is a piece from the Telegraph that was originally published on Jan 28th but re-posted yesterday

@DaveMagar very close to signing in Germany. VERY CLOSE

 

I suspect this darren arsenal has as many sources as me..

 

We're all using the same sources

 

If this is true and it's German based, then we're getting a quality midfielder one way or another. You can't go wrong with a German midfielder!

 

Chelsea are after Khedira so I doubt it would be him and Bender isn't going anywhere

 

We're sending Wellington Silva on loan again. Though apparently Arsenal hold him in high regard and are eagerly monitoring his progress. If he's as good as FIFA makes him out to be he'll be a good squad option in the future

 

Some twitter rumours are that we're definitely in for Khedira as well as either Schneiderlin or Bender

The Metro are just using other media & social media sources.Notice there is no named journalist writing the story

 

Staniel Collymore in on the act again..

 

I think Dogger is just a gobshite but the Metro have believed his Tweet

 

If your targets are to be believed and given you already have Sanchez you're looking pretty tasty for next season

 

Arsenal - The Khedira Conundrum

Would love a few comments regarding the Khedira transfer or Arsenals future transfers!

 

Is this some sort of sick joke?

 

We deserve some good Karma when it comes to transfers. After losing so many of our good players over the years, some to our rivals and getting shafted by JW smoking Henry last season, it's poetic justice that Barca buying Suarez has directly enabled Sanchez to come to Arsenal. Similarly Bale being sold by the Spuds allowed Ozil to come to us.

Our rivals being weakened by Real and Barca wanting their top stars has enabled us to strengthen by buying two of their best players in the process.

Real and Barca - Arsenal feeder clubs

 

I agree! For a number of years you have to feel that there was a kind of curse around Arsenal FC; everything that could go wrong, seemingly did; loss of players to rivals, missing out on targets by being gazumped, poor Champs League draws etc.... Lets hope the curse is broken now!

 

This is Arteta's last season. Flamini's positional sense isn't good enough for him to play the home games as solitary DM. Someone of Khedira or Benders ilk (with the latter being more of a true DM type) is needed, and with Arteta still there this year it gives them a transitional period to bed in.

 

Not to mention both players are better than all our CM's (Ramsey and Wilshere potentially can become better).
