We're being loosely linked with Kevin Doyle sadly. And no, swapping Nasri for Adam Johnson at Man City plus cash, not M Johnson (who is that?)

Why are liverpool fans on here?
and apparently arsenal to bid 35million for andy caroll .... ohh no were not a thick as the scousers :)
Believable14
Unbelievable11
Atleast liverpool bid big money for the player they wanted. whether he is amazing or not is irrelevant. we want arsenal to splash the cash on benzema, we dont know if he will be a success in england or not, but do we care right now? no. we just want him. We should take a leaf out of liverpools book when it comes to transfers. play hardball.
Agree0
Disagree0
We should just spend big money even if the player is not that good, can i sell you this car its only worth 100 but i will sell it to you for 5000.
Agree0
Disagree0
Funny how some people still struggle to understant the whole carroll/torres transfer saga...it was chelsea's money being spent and liverpool made 20 mill profit
Agree0
Disagree0
Yeh but carroll is horrific...worth about 10mil really...u would have been better off keeping kuyt in the team and spending the 50mil on a player who is actually good at football and does not get outwitted by a bar stall. Have fun in the europa league next season...oh wait...
Agree0

IAM A GLASGOW RANGERS FAN, LOVE WATCHING ARSENALS FOOTBALL STYLE GREAT TO WATCH BUT YOU NEED SOMEBODY TO PUT THE BALL IN THE NET YOU CANT KEEP TRYING TO WALK THE BALL IN, WE VE GOT THE PERFECT PLAYER IN JELIVIC WOULD SUIT ARSENALS TYPE OF PLAY GOOD GOAL SCORER AND TEAM PLAYER, AH KNOW IAM MAD TRYING TO PUNY ONE OF OUR TOP PLAYERS BUT HE WILL GO SOONER OR LATER AND WHY NOT ARSENAL.

Ahmedov won't happen, we've only scouted him, and the only reason he's gone public with the info is to wrangle a move to Europe or the oil rich Arab nations.
His club, Paxtakor, have already rejected bids of 12m+ from Arab sides.
We'll never bid that much.

Obviously a penalty save from an old average keeper a against a good spanish team is better than a legend tearing apart a world class team in a matter of seconds.

If Nicklas Bendtner is not sold to one of the german clubs. Expect him to end up wherever Mark Hughes manages. I have it from a reliable source that a phone call took place between Hughes and Bendtner about a move to Aston Villa as Hughes was confident he would get the job however he didn't. If QPR have a rocky start to PL life then expect Hughes to replace Warnock and Bendtner to be there late in the summer or early january.

How can people not see that Wenger wants Downing as Nasri type squad member who cqn play on the wing and be influencial on the ball through the middle Wenger likes players who can play in various positions My contact had no idea of this talk so it must be a relatively new enquiry? Wenger will go in for Vertorghen shortly as a left back option to cover Gibbs, young Jenkinson can also cover
Another striker will be purchased and Wenger will spend big on this player
Cahill to follow once Bendtner and Alumina have left the squad wage bill

Downing is not good enough for arsenal or england, why waste money on players who dont perform on any stage

Yeh, vertonghen on the bench, can see that. GIBBS is a poor left back, so vertonghen to play 2nd left back to gibbs is an absolute joke. You must not watch much football

Have heard Nasri to City for 22M is done deal, will complete on return from Asia. We have taken him for commercial reasons. If this is true i hope Wenger at least enquired Kompany, De Jong or Johnston as part of the deal. Probably not though.
The Downing rumour i for one like i know lots of you dont but for me it shows a clear intent on having out and out wingers and a plan B. RVP, Chamakh and Gervinho can all head the ball so it makes sense to have good ball crossing wingers and Downing is fast and can go past people too.
The lack Defensive players and leaders coming in worries me more. This Mertersacker rumour better be rumour he is so slow for the EPL. I believe Wenger is being very cagey of CB's with stupid prices being quoted by everyone. 17M for Cahill is ridiculous, 10M for samba is a joke. If were spending that money then go for proven international and CL class.
As for Cesc, Pep wants it sorted soon, we want it sorted soon. So why dont Barca just get it we want 40M, and not 8.5M now and the rest when we have the cash LOL what a joke they are. Abidal is over the hill so please no more of that rumour. If players are involved then go for say Gabriel Milito and Affelay with say 25M in cash.

You're talking s**te mate. We wouldn't take Nasri to Asia EVEN FOR 'Commercial reasons' if he was leaving the club; commercial deals last longer than the one week we'll be out there, don't you realise this?
Wenger doesn't make a bold statement RE: Keeping Nasri only to then agree to sell him for 22m on the same day. The 110k PW deal has yet to be put on the table for Nasri.
Besides Sky Italia have ADMITTED to jumping the gun on that story & they were the first to "break it" SSN got it from them, so on and so forth.
In fact the ENTIRE Nas/City rumours began on a Sky Blue's forum to wind up MUFC supporters, it trickled out onto Twitter and is now the story you see before you.
Amazing.
Agree0
Disagree0
Think about what you are typing (on the Nasri paragraph)..
If a deal has been struck for Nasri, do you honestly think City would happily allow him to gallabant half way around the globe to provide PR and Marketing for a rival club, and potentially pick up an injury?
Surely City would want him for commercial reasons of their own, such as showing intent. By your logic Clichy may as well have gone along for the pre season PR tour for Arsenal as well, hell, while we're at it, let's borrow T.Henry from over the pond, as he will get bums on seats over there (Aisa).
Complete balls. Again as I have said previously, I am ready to stand corrected, but by using my limited powers of deduction (common sense), I feel that this rumour has limited legs (a bit like Downing's ability to perform a step-over). We shall see.

That made me laugh about asking for kompany in nasri deal as if city are going to let go a defender who between him a vidic was the best center half in the league last season as well as being there player of the year plus nasri leaving because he not confident of winning trophies so why would kompany move the other way

I see alot of people dont believe the arsenal enquiry for downing...
well I can confirm that they have made the enquiry, but no offer will be made for 18million. the offer arsenal have in mind is cash sum + bendtner. arsene values bendtner at 14million, so a cash sum around 3-4 million will be talked about..
Believable6

If thats true im happy, 4 mil to get rid of bendtner and get a player who will deliver good crosses, sounds like a good deal to me.
Agree0

Can see a cash + Bentner deal but think Bendtner id closer to 10m not 14m either way reckon we may have to stump up 8/9m if he really wants him. Does this mean Nasri stays and moves into the middle once Cesc departs?

Cheers lads, who knows I guess, just another rumour.. know the Arsenal fans would like to see him replaced, and to be honest for a top club he is probably out of his depth, would be a very good signing for the toon though, definitely a better player than Shola, Best or Lovenkrands... anyone know how much Wenger is looking for him? would tell whether theres truth to it, unless hes wrapped up in a deal with Enrique going the other way? be a great signing for the gunners I think, much better defensively than Clichy and likes to get forward

He's just as good as carrol for less than half the price...

I just cannot see this happening. It would be a big suprise, I think there are better players out there for the over inflated fee that Villa would look for. He is technically not good enough, although he would give Arsenal an option of someone getting to the by line and putting in a cross that is of a better calibre to Clichy with his row H efforts. IF this is true, then what does this mean for Arshavin? Does he (Arshavin) then move to a more centrally advanced role, meaning that Nasri is not being looked at for this role...so is he (Nasri) actually leaving?? Ummm, I don't think so. I am willing to wait and see. If anythinng this is Wenger potentially covering his options over the potential issues with Nasri and Fabregas. All will be revealed.

Being tempted and actually doing it are different things. I have been tempted to walk out of a restaurant without paying because the service was so bad, but I didn't...
Again, Arsenal don't need to sell, but if a crazy offer comes in from City, it might be considered. Having money is all well and good, being able to replace with 'a par' or better is another thing, with a market that is clearly inflated.
Another one that I can't see happening.

With nasri being offered 110k a week and fabregas possibly going for £35m + abidal which I would be more than happy to accept for a player clearly who's heart is not still with arsenal. And a versatile player in abidal I would take it along as nasri stays. Bring in Juan mata, move nasri to a fabregas role or vis versa and bobs your uncle. Those one or two would be;
Juan mata as replacement for fab so doesn't count as one of those two players as that number was based on both fab and nasri staying.
Fabregas deal including abidal again would not be included *possibly in that one or two*
Gervinho is already an arsenal player paperwork is just being slow the reason he didn't go out to Asia, can spend time with his friend eboue and get used England a bit to.
The two signings will be:
Centre backs finally:
Cahill - £17m + maybe some loans
Samba - £12m
So let's do some maths :(
Fabregas sale is £35m
Mata £21m
Gervinho £11
Cahill £17m
+ almunia and bendtner of which could add at least another £10m to the kitty
Outs £45m
Ins £49m
£4m spent typical arsene window
JOB DONE
Although Cahill looks more likely, this will be a typical wenger window

Arsenal have given in and offered Nasri the 110,000 mil a week he originally asked for. Nasri and his agent are seriously considering it

i have heard this from strong links from close to the club(a friend who speaks with former players) that wenger's interview is just a cover up of real situations. i was told that wenger WANTS mata as the replacement for fabregas, and when wenger said he will do all he can to keep nasri, he referred to signing benzema and another marque signing believed to b hazard, who wenger admires substantially.
i was told bids of 18mil for mata, 21mil benzema, 15mil plus loan back till january for hazard were being prepared.
i was also told only 1 CB is being chased n a CM/CDM that can also play CB.
the main targets are believed to be for CB-subotic/cahill/samba
CM/CDM-matuidi/vertonghen/mvila/de rossi.
these targets will only be followed upon after the sales of players such as- denilson, diaby, bendtner, almunia.
the source that told me this said the players were asked to scout these

Well that is a very nice rumour but don't TYPE EVERYTHING IN CAPITALS IT MAKES YOU LOOK LIKE YOU DON'T KNOW WTF YOU ARE DOING WITH A KEYBOARD AT YOUR FINGERTIPS.
However - 1) Given is worht at least 10million and City have made it clear enough times they don't want to sell him unless he puts in a tf request, and they have little in the way of back up for Hart.
2) Barcelona have been refusing to offer us the 40m asking price. So why would they then agree to that and also throw in Maxwell??
3) If we are replacing Fab with Mata and we already have Song Wilshere Ramsey Frimpong Nasri stays Lansbury Arshavin Rosicky and Diaby (who is unlikely to be sold sadly) why would we be buying Diarra?
