Tweet tonight from former chief scout and sporting director of Monaco suggests Arsenal showing interest in Winston Reid (West Ham).
Younger, possibly cheaper and better than Ashley Williams, in my opinion. Extra CB cover if AW decides he can do without TV5. West Ham might be amenable if needing funds for Carroll.

Believable7 Unbelievable70

As a kiwi, could be worse, but honestly he's a great starter for any bottom 10 clubs and shouldn't have to sit on the bench for us. He'd be behind TV5 in the pecking order. We need 4 CBs and IMO Miquel can be our 4th.

Agree0 Disagree0

Hes signed a new contract a month ago so he won't be cheap as he is still young as well

Agree1 Disagree0

We need better players than reid, we have t sign jovetic and higuain, we just have to.

Ketchup or Brown

Agree0 Disagree0

His sauce is legitimate it's much better than Heinz! Trust me!

The word is 'source', meaning point of reference.

Agree0 Disagree0

To be honest I heard it's a new BBQ sauce.

Agree0 Disagree0

Malaga you posted about 6 months saying you were sorry for spouting so much rubbish and making up so many names on here, and that you were in between jobs so you were bored. Why come back now and start this nonsense again?

Paul

Agree1 Disagree0

Punt all good rumours in the afternoon, as he has a siesta then.

Agree0 Disagree0

He's obviously on the sauce.

Anyone else think malaga and ed 002 are one and the same? {Ed027's Note - well you are very wrong

Agree0 Disagree1

Delicious cocktail sauce! Mixed by squirrels and made from angel's tears and unicorn poo!

Agree0 Disagree0

First time back on this site since last summer and it's like I've never been away.

Agree2 Disagree0

Attention Sauce me thinks!

Big Al

Agree0 Disagree0

It's clearly not your first time back since last summer. you post under about ten different names.

Ali - everyone feels the same, so annoying reading a sentence then seeing one of his names at the bottom!

Agree0 Disagree0

Whats annoying is that one of the ed's revealed malaga gooner for posting under different names, and yet now, they just allow it. I appreciate that they probably can't be bothered to check the ip of every poster. especially when there is like 20 other club pages to regulate. but still.

Arsenal set to clear out dead-wood players and relieve £350k from wage bill.

Believable35 Unbelievable11

I tallied it up. The 'deadwood' earn 858k a week between them.

StEvE

Agree0 Disagree0

Who exactly are YOU classing as deadwood?!

Agree0 Disagree0

Everyone, probably.

There are people on here who think Arteta is deadwood

Agree1 Disagree0

Then we'll just get some more in! Young player with potential but never get player enough

Yaya Signed for Arsenal?!

Yaya Sanogo has informed tv that Arsenal is the club for and that he wants to follow in the footsteps of ex-Auxerre player Diaby (lets hope he doesn't mean straight into the Medical Room)

Looks like he has the potential to be a good player, however, no show stopper! Hopefully he is one for the future and not another French Youngster which doesn't live up to their promise!

Wishful thinking is he will become the next best thing under the guidance of Higuain and Jovetic? As I said wishful thinking ;-)

Believable56 Unbelievable12

Hope he won't be in the medical room

Agree0 Disagree0

I'd like him to go straight out on loan and see if he can do a Lukaku a la last season.

Agree1 Disagree0

No more diabys.

Agree0 Disagree0

I predict he will be sold/released in a few years just like most of the young players bought

Agree0 Disagree0

21 May 2013 16:03:57
tv just reported that sanogo has said he is going to link up with arsenal next season, good news as long as this doesn't stop us signing a world-class striker, which we undoubtedly need.

Italian journalist Tancredi Palmeri just tweeted: "It's no more just a contact, or interest. Since yesterday an Arsenal bid is on Fiorentina's table: €30m for Jovetic, exactly the price tag. Player's fully keen to move. Fiorentina asked few days of stand-by. They will meet Juventus in next hours to check for a raise. Otherwise. "

Looks like Stevan will be heading to London unless Juve don't bid more than 30 million. Having in mind they can get Higuaín for less, looks like JoJo will grace Emirate's pitch next season!

Believable50 Unbelievable22

Hope so

Agree1 Disagree0

30m is more than I think he's worth.

Agree0 Disagree0

30 mill € euros. Not gbp £

Agree0 Disagree1

Google says 30m euros is £25, 528, 980

Agree0 Disagree0

What a signing this would be, always wanted to see him in the premiership!

Big Al

Agree0 Disagree0

No way Arsene will part with that kinda cash.

Following the departure of Tony Pulis from Stoke it is understood that Steve Bould will accept the 'Head Coach' appointment. Arsenal closing in on Jaoa Periera of Valencia as Sagna is on his way out.

Believable11 Unbelievable39

NEVER Bould managing Stoke not in a million years

Agree1 Disagree1

Noooooo! We need him! Can't go back to shakey defence again! Please stay bouldy!

Agree0 Disagree0

Good shout - Bould may move in some capacity as anyone who saw the crap relationship he had with AW this season will attest to.

2 Cents

Agree0 Disagree0

I hope this is not true as Bould has obviously had some influece on the Defenders over the last six months.

People say Wenger does not allow him to do any coaching. who knows maybe he is speaking to the players off the pitch and getting his points across that way. I don't claim to know but it is an obvious fact that in his first year as assistant manager the defenders have been better than at any point over the last number of years.

Having stated the obvious above it is also worth noting that back in December / January when things were supposed to be bad between AW and Bould the french paper L'Equipe carried a quote from Remi Garde saying that AW would prefer to have a French Assistant. This again could be crap from Garde or L'Equipe or both but I remember reading it at the time.

i hope he doesn't go as he has somehow managed to have an influence BUT if the relationship is as poor as some people say then who could blame him if he chose to leave.

Metro, normally reliable, saying Arsenal closing on Jovetic. Apparently Fiorentina don't want to sell to Juventus. Hopefully it's true.

Believable27 Unbelievable13

Hopefully

Agree0 Disagree0

Metro r the most unreliable source out there. don't know when they have got one right. I believe nothing until official. Maybe get excited when on tv.

Agree0 Disagree0

Metro reliable? Pfffft! The same Metro who confirmed we had signed Joe Cole before he went to Liverpool? That was the first and last time I've ever picked up that rag.

Agree0 Disagree0

Metro is the least reliable daily paper, but I still see people quoting a web site on here, football transfer league says they are even worse and they defo have an agenda against arsenal for some reason
