Eds couple of questions;
any truth to the rumours regarding khedira wanting a move to arsenal?
also any truth in the rumours regarding lewandowski open to other offers?
Thanks. {Ed044's Note - From another Ed: Chelsea spoke with Real Madrid about Khedira and whilst the club are willing to let him leave the player was looking to stay in Madrid. Additionally, the price being asked for him was well beyond what Chelsea would pay. Dortmund and Lewandowski were unable to reach agreement over a new deal and they probably won't. Whilst there is no agreement in place for him to join any other club, it is clear that there has been interest from Manchester United and serious interest from Bayern Munich, who Dortmund would prefer not to sell to. Arsenal were represented at a game late last season in Stuttgart and I suspect Lewandowski was of interest then. Napoli, Real Madrid and Chelsea have a sustained interest in Lewandowski but the player seems keen to run down his contract and move to Munich.}

Cheers.

Hi Guys, not a rumour but some interesting info picked up today. On a course with a senior sponsorship negotiator from Adidas who is Dutch. In a chat over coffee he siad that they really wanted to sign a deal with Arsenal for all kit etc and their CEO was really hacked off that we never responded to their proposal. He believes Puma offered more and Nike were happy to lose to Puma but would have tried to block Adidas anyway Also he knows many of worlds players agents due to boot deals etc and said that Van Persie's agent told him Wenger is a nightmare to deal with. He sits in on all player negotiations, fees and wages. I know from the guy running the course this is the Dutchmans real job so I would think the info is pretty genuine. Worrying if true that we ignore companies like Adidas.
Why is it worrying? No reason to respond if we've made an agreement with Puma.
RvP made ridiculous demands of Arsenal. I am proud of the way we dealt with him.
Did cesc, Thierry, bergkamp or any of the other stars current and retired talk bad of Wenger? I don't think so.
That's all that matters not about some addidas hack
