i've got it on very good authority that arsene will be in the market for a striker on january. thierry henry, falcao, and llorente mentioned. falcao also a mancini target he was in spain to watch the colombian score against Malaga. falcao looking unlikely as chelsea and real madrid also interested. £££...thierry henry in fine form this season 14 goals 13 assists.

Llorente and Falcao too exensive, Henry too old.

Arsene has been talking up Bendtner, given his lack of playing time at Juve, this looks the most likely one ..

Of those three options, I think the only realistic target would be Henry.

I'd love to see Llorente and Falcao but they'd likely cost too in transfer fees and wages. A loan for Henry during the MLS close season wouldn't be too bad.

Cmon, Flacao, aint even on Arsene's mind. Maybe LLorente

Why are people/media suddenly thinking that we are in for Falcao?

I mean it would be great if he came, but we can't afford him, especially when Athletico Madrid are putting such a high price for him.
And besides, we can't compete with Chelsea, Manchester City etc. cash wise, and let's be honest, money talks and if a big club like City or Chelsea offer you mega bucks to win trophies with them, you aren't going to turn that down.

So if anyone is even slightly believing the Falcao to Arsenal rumours, don't believe them, it's not going to happen.

Nick i agree with you i cant believe this is true.
BUT we have made over the last 2 seasons £50+++ mill in profit and have the money to pay his club cash.
even when the numbers are in black and whit people believe we have no money.

We have $$ but we're not going to splash cash and break our wage bill for one player.. Once financial fair play comes into effect ppl will see the brilliance of Wenger.. Falcao to either Man Sh!tty or Chelsea
