Ed025,

Very sad news about Andy King.

He was always one of my favourite 'non Arsenal' players when I was growing up.

Always played well against us.

Terrific player and a sad loss.

RIP Andy King.

Gotta love this transfer story on talk something;

Liverpool are chasing 16 year old German wonder kid 'per wiesensplash '

Sorry, it's been a long day, but splash in the pool and all that.

I don't understand the apparent interest in Calhanouglu and Fekir, surely a player of that type is not what we need?

Completely agree. They offer nothing we don't already have from Ox, Ozil, Santi, Alexis and Whilsere. Although they are two very talented young players.

Striker and Defensive mid should be priority, although if we plan on using Walcott as a Striker to compete with Giroud then we should look for a pacey and direct winger, maybe.

What if, say, Cazorla leaves this summer?

Agree0 Disagree0

27 May 2015 12:39:10
Having watched today's press conference I am convinced that Vidal to Arsenal is done. We can rattle on all day about Keepers, Strikers etc, I think that signing alone can win us the league. I'm off to hide ;-)

I know we don't have money issues anymore (yippee), and I know Vidal has a great reputation, but I still would be surprised to see Wenger splash out over £20 million on a player who is already 28. It just doesn't seem to fit with his philosophy.

Agree0 Disagree1

27 May 2015 15:12:41
Haven't seen it. What makes u say that

Agree0 Disagree0

27 May 2015 15:20:55
well the options were fekir, calhanoglu, vidal, matuidi.

if those players are being looked at, then it can possibly mean we would be selling santi cazorla, or we are entertaining offers for cazorla.

i have not seen juve play a lot besides 4-5 games in the champions league, but mostly see vidal on the wing or advance midfield like cazorla does. that's just my thinking.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 May 2015 18:51:03
He'd be a very welcome addition that's for sure,Ozil Sanchez Vidal in 3 years! The intent would be beyond question.

Juve play a very interesting system of Pirlo in the deep lying role with Marchisio, Vidal and Pogba doing all the leg work; tracking back and making forward runs.

Vidal is a fantastic player, as good a box-to-box midfielder as any but not what we need. Ramsey is a very good player in the same role and is 4 years younger, aswell as being home grown. No need buying Vidal to force him out wide. Also would of though he would go for atleast £40m as Juve have no need to sell.

Ed,

Just bought a new kit: 2000 Spurs Sol Campbell. Planning to wear it at next year's derby. Is this wrong to wear a kit with the spurs crest (that loathsome pigeon)? I see it as two fingers to spurs fans, but curious to know what other gooners think. Can you post this to sound out public opinon.

Thanks!

{Ed002's Note - It is not a pigeon but a chicken on a unicycle - "poultry in motion" as Johnny Tillotson put it.
