I'm aware that there haven't been any rumours of this but I don't see why we don't attempt a player swap deal for Ibra and Giroud.
To me it makes perfect sense: Giroud's wife wants out, he's at the top of his game, he's french. Ibra is getting older, he'll be easier to get rid of than a younger [more expensive] Cavani. Ibra has yet to win a premier league title, Arsenal could potentially do that. and, finally, w/ the history he has w/ Arsenal it would be just the kind of cheeky move that Ibra loves to do.
Why not? Take Ibra for a very fair trade price, get Draxler, Bender, a CB and an RB and LB - Monreal stinks, Gibbs isn't quite world class, is injury prone and could use some competition, and it looks like Sagna is out.
We put those pieces together [doable?] and we just might make a run w/ a healthy ramsey, walcott, absence of the lame [and whiny] arteta.
Let's do it!
1.) I thought this was an April fools. Sorry but if the person in charge of PSG's transfers was to put it politely dumb, then maybe it would be feasible. But I'm sure there not hence they have been signing world class players in the past few years. And as Giroud is not in the same league as Cavani ibrahimavic, pastore Lavezzi then this would be a complete non runner
2.) Fantasy football anybody?
(sister, I like the way you think though)
3.) I think we will need to sell 5 players to pay ibra his wages. not to mention a potential 20+mill transfer fee.
4.) Sister, we had the young Ibra at Colney when Wenger first started here. His agent said "Well Mr. Wenger, do you want to sign him?" Arsene replied "But his trial hasn't begun yet, we haven't seen what he can do". Zlatan piped up "Zlatan does not do trials!". The rest is history and so was our chance of ever signing Ibra I'm afraid.
5.) Sister, I'd like it. I think though, hidden in here is a point I completely agree on (though not that he "stinks"). I think we do need a left back: Monreal is ok and decent squad player/back up, and Gibbs too has his qualities, but he is frail and callow. I'd love us to sign Baines (out of the question) or Shaw from Southampton, who looks like an England left back for the next 10 years.
Farnham (Max).
6.) Very true CECEGUaW,
We also had a young Yaya Toure (he played a friendly against Barnet), but we let him go.
7.) DG we did the right thing with Yaya he would have got in the way of diarby's progression mate
8.) G62, you have a fair point there mate, lol.
9.) Yaya we were trying to get international clearance for, and he chose to take the easy route into another club afaik?
