Mirko Vucinic's agent was due in London today, for talks with us over a move (we wanted loan, they want permanent) however, he canceled his flight due to Juventus agreeing a frankly fantastic deal (for Juve) to swap him and a sum of cash for Freddy Guarin.
Inter fans were absolutely livid about this and kicked off majorly, promoting Inter to turn their back on an almost agreed deal, leaving Juve furious with them and Freddy Guarin so incensed, he's apparently refusing to leave the Juve training ground.
Inter want to strike a deal for Vucinic without Guarin involved and Vucinic is keen to move to them as to stay in Italy, but Juve are point blank refusing to entertain any sort of deal with them, unless Guarin is involved!
Frankly my fellow gunners, we've dodged a bullet.
Vucinic has never really been amongst the goals, with his Roma days being the best of his form I feel!
Hopefully, we can move to a new target.
Peace!

Hi Eds,
Any truth about the Lascelles saga?
and he is a CB or a difensive mid?

{Ed001's Note - he is a centre back and Arsenal have had a long standing interest, had him watched numerous times over the last few years. That is as far as it has gone though, unless something has changed today.}

Maybe a silly question ed, but have arsenal ever been linked with reus? Could be a nice alternative to draxler.

In Italy is reported on sky-sports that today Alessandro Lucci (Mirko Vucinic's agent) will fly to London to discuss with Arsenal. If AW will offer cash there is the concrete possibility to see this talented striker to the emirates. Personally I think that this guy could be a good attacking option, he's not a goal-machine but he can play for the team like Giroud and he is pure class.

Great link up play and is clinical when he has his chances

I don't rate Vucinic as high as berbatov, and berba would cost a fraction of vucinic, so I don't understand why wenger will consider a more expensive stop gap solution, makes no sense.
vucinic is neither going to take giroud's spot, and I don't see how a player like vucinic will win us a title, he is not exactly prolific.
i would be disappointed in wenger, i'd rather he not buy anyone, rather then spend silly money on a striker who will stop us from buying a world class striker in the summer.
Draxler is the only player that interests me, long term project and you know he is going to be world class.
Arteta, Rosicky, Cazorla, Flamini, have at best another 2-3 years with Arsenal.
the likes of wilshere, ramsey, gnabry, walcott, ozil will make up the midfield of the team.
miyachi has not made the grade, and it looks like he will be off soon with Dench.
the likes of Zelalem, and dan crowley are waiting in the wings to come in and add more quality.
i'm not exactly sure if Draxler is a necessity, however you can never have enough of world class.

The way a see it juve are willing to sell cause he ain't good enough and ain't going to improve so doubt he'sthe man to push is over the line to the title

Vucinic is probably the slowest attacker in Europe. My friend is a passionate juventino and he said to me that Vucinic wouldn't be much better than Bendtner for us. I really hope this transfer doesn't happen, and if it does at least let it be on loan.

Wenger should not know less than all of us. So if he is really that bad, Wenger would not get him in squad. But if he has quality, he can be a short-term soln
