There is talk arsenal want Gonzalo Higuain from real madrid fee to be around 25 million, I sure myself arsenal are in the market for a big striker.

Let's get serious for a second. Why would Arsene try to sign a striker when we've got Giroud? After all Arsene said that he chose Giroud over Demba Ba. In Wenger we RUST

Cant see that happening!!

Yeh - I heard Higuain was on the look out for a serious pay cut and Europa league football - behave.

We know wenger won't buy big players but we need to break the bank and buy an out and out striker otherwise we are in big trouble.

arsenal to go for Borussia Dortmund pair Mario Gotze and Mats Hummels which will relieve us of 55m (the 30m bid was for mario therefore Hummels will cost 25m)

I really really hope so...
We need a winger with some creativity and not a headless chicken (gervinho)
The defence needs numbers..

People seriously need to stop looking on caught offside 99.9% of their stories are a load of rubbish.

Finish the sentence please. Dortmund want to sell us their best players because ....

Not in a million years. That would mean we are ambitious. And we all know that is clearly not the case. Check out Tony Adams interview on . He puts it perfectly.

No chance.

Keep taking the tablets the voices will stop trust me

This will never happen not while arsen is in charge, he struggles to spend over 10 mill on a player so he won't spend 55mill on 2

Also going to sign ronaldo messi rooney ans hart

Lol would be a dream..

If you think about it it all adds up, goetze saying he'd only play for arsenal or barca, most papers saying we'd attemp to sign him in this transfer window a few months ago, having a reported release clause of 30m, us bidding 30m for an unknown player... Mario's an arsenal player.
CheetahChaz97 {Ed002's Note - I would not hold your breath.}

Goetze said his favourite clubs other than Dortmund were Arsenal and Barca. It also was quite a while ago. By now he wouldn´t even think about leaving Dortmund. And why would he? He absolutely loves his coach (rightfully so), he plays with his two best friends (Reus and Sahin) and his team has soundly beaten City and Real in the CL and is well on its way to even bigger things, because it features world class players: Hummels at the back for one, and there might not be a better strike force in all of football right now than the combination of Reus, Lewandowski and Goetze. If you haven´t seen them play, take the time to do so. You will be amazed. Dream about someone else. He won´t be found in the middle of that mess that our Arsenal has turned into anytime soon.

Do you honestly believe that to be true Cheetah? Seriously...

Pull your finger out AW. MBiwa is exactly the player we need and you are letting him go to a side who are currently in a relegation battle and he is only going for 6.7 million.

Also don't know of anyone else has seen the papers today which are suggesting that PSG want Wenger and will offer a deal totalling 30 million in all for him. With Ancelotti coming our way.
I was just wondering what people thought about it and who would replace AW

Snowed In Gooner

Well if it's in todays papers, it must be true!

Aaah the world famous 'manager swap'. You have Wenger we'll take Ancelotti

Happens all the time.

Not Ancelotti anyway

Nothing wrong with Ancelotti

Ancelotti would never be a good manager at Arsenal, never worked on a budget and never had to build a team from scratch

Michael Laudrup, will be our next manager. Has the Arsenal style philosophy

Roberto Martinez will be the next manager of Arsenal.

To the laudrup poster. Good call for laudrup! But what is the arsenal way? Win nothing for years and battling for 4th? We used to play great football. We don't Anymore!

For me.. Wenger stays. Arsenal are linked to just about every footballer that has a name, but I really think the best signing we can make right now is David Dein. Wenger's lost his mojo a bit and I think he's tried to take on too much. Dein proved successful for us in our transfere dealings on the past and I think it's time to bring him back

Just a thought, but could it be possible - Wenger knows he might go and therefore is not interested in signing any good players for us, as we seem to be missing out big time

Wenger won't leave Arsenal for another club.

About the David Dein thing, hell yeh!
His son seems to be one of the big agents. We need him on board.

If you want a manager who can build a team on a budget and still get results then surely David Moyes is our man? Worked wonders at everton this season..

Unfortunately Wenger's going nowhere. Thanks to an owner and board of directors who couldn't care less about footballing matters as long as the cash continues to roll in, the man's got a job for life. Even when we fail to qualify for the CL this season they won't sack him. Be interesting to see what happens once reality hits home, the season ticket renewals dry up, the prawnies in club level stop forking out and we're playing to a half-empty stadium every other week with no CL TV money coming in.

AW will not leave arsenal
