Players Arsenal are heavily linked with;

Podolski
Suarez
Kalou
Dempsey
Belhanda
M'Vila
Martin
Vertonghen
McGregor
Holby

We are not going to get Gotze or Hazard

My question to the Ed's is what players and how many are likely. My personal opinion is Podolski, Dempsey, Vertonghen and M'Vila? Maybe McGregor? {Ed002's Note - Maybe as you have suggested - but I am not so sure that Dempsey will be so easy to get..}

What a turn-around for Arsenal (and United) this season! Arsene (and Sir Alex) shows real class yet again.

I'd love to see United and Arsenal battling it out for top spot because I miss those days! Hopefully next year.

Nothing beats viera keane battles!

Cheers pal, hopefully with a bit of strengthening in the summer, and keeping our best players we will be right back up there.

Agree0 Disagree0

Arsenal played like true champs aginst man city. it takes alot more than millions pumped into a club to create a top team in europe. takes the likes of wenger/ ferguson/mourinho/guardiola. to help a club on its way to stardom.city has a long way to go to reach hights like these managers clubs have.

Agree0 Disagree0

Its coming M.D. Fergie better watch out for the high flying pizza pies next season! There acoming hot n spicy.

Arsenal Forever

Agree0 Disagree0

Arsenal are currently playing like they are going for the title. If only we didn't through away stupid games earlier in the season. It would definitely by Arsenal and United going for the title.

My take on the transfer dealings for the summer in a perfect world:

Out: Almunia, Squillaci, Ju Young, Chamakh, Mannone, Lansbury, Arshavin, Bendtner and Denilson - transfer fees received c.£22.5m weekly wages saved c. £355k or c.£18.5m p.a

In: McGregor, Podolski, Vertonghen, M'Vila and Giroud - transfer fees paid c.£56m weekly wages to be paid c.£295k or c.£15.4m p.a

As Wenger said it is not about quantity its quality. We have a silly amount of players out on loan.

Those coming in would be quality!

Loved the poznan yesterday!

Lansbury why? He's already shown he's got the Arsenal material and injuries aside he has shone like a beacon for WHAM... Lansbury will be back in the R&W next season.

=M.A.

Agree0 Disagree0

Completely agree with your views on lansbury. Kid looks quality when i watch him for west ham and for england.

ed has arsene actually expressed interest in marvin martin or is it just media bs
cheers {Ed002's Note - Dortmund, Lille, Lorient and Anderlecht have enquired after Marvin Martin, but Valencia and Arsenal have been most serious in the pursuit of the Socheaux player. I suspect a move in the summer is possible.}

Irish Gooner. Know some one who works for the Irish sun,and he says Wenger wants M'vila as he rates him so highly and will pay to get him. He also wants Vertonghen, But Djourou will go not Mertasacker. He also said that Wenger wants Dempsey, And Olivier Giroud. As he wants to have a big squad of top class players so he can go for the title and champions league. He is also showing interest in Rangers keeper Mcgregor , to keep Sczezny on his toes. There is also 2 young prospects coming as well. Lewis Holtby and a young Brigthon centre back called Dunk. Have this information on good authority.

Believable20 Unbelievable15

Please not Lewis Holtby, he's useless really, almost like the Jay Spearing of Germany, all huff and puff, nothing to show. Unlike Ramsey he doesn't even shoot or pass.

Agree0 Disagree0

He is wrong about Dunk. We scouted him and decided he isn't good enough, which is very correct as he has been dropped from the Brighton team. Also has a criminal charge hanging over him about an alleged sex assault. Never happening.

Agree0 Disagree0

To the first poster, how many games of Holtby have u seen? Cant b many if u think he doesnt shoot. He has a great shot from distance, simialr to arteta. He will b a top player in a few years

Marty

Agree0 Disagree0

Mate you've probably just seen the screamer he scored against Kauserslaughtern. He scored one goal from distance, big deal. Just because Yossi Benayoun scores a headed goal does it make him the best header in the league? I seriously doubt it. You've got to watch the kid, not just highlights. He runs around a lot granted, but he doesn't do much.

ins:
Vertonghen
Sahin or Marvin Martin (CM/AM)
Podolski (CF)
A forward...Ba/Giroud

Or we sign Podolski as a ST and go for a winger in Marin/Adam Johnson

Can't see us signing M'vila Hazard or Gotze (to expensive)

Outs:
Almunia
Squllaci
Mertesacker or Djourou
Benyaoun (loan finished)
Arshavin
Park
Chamakh or Bentnar (rather chamakh tbh)
Denilson
Diaby

And hopefully we keep Vela...!

Believable7 Unbelievable20

No thanks on Marvin, while I think we can get him for cheap - I think he is a one season wonder.

I would much prefer Belhanda - classy player.

Billybob

Agree0 Disagree0

Why do you say m'vila hazard and goetze are to expensive do you think we have no money?
we have the 70 million we got let of from the tax bill..
we have the 45 million we put a side if we did not qualify for the cl and that does not include any players we sell.
why does every 1 think we are skint?

Agree0 Disagree0

Whoever thinks Arsenal do not have a lot of money to spend are very silly indeed!

£120m put aside in cash in January, at the end of the season we will have more cash plus player sales cash which equals a lot of cash and Arsene WILL spend a lot of CASH so lets wait and see what happens but all deals will be done very early me thinks so fingers crossed.

Arsenal have a good chance of gettin m'vila... but it all depends in the summer and how negotiations go ;) we are signing 3-4 GOOD players! wait and see

real-goon

Agree0 Disagree0

We're not getting Gotze because he's signed a new contract with Borussia Dortmund.

M'Vila we have a real chance of bringing to the Emirates.

Martin is a one season wonder.

Belhanda looks like a really good player; quite physical.

Vertonghen would strenghen our defence a lot, but we need to get rid of Squillaci.

Giroud looks very deadly up front and he would be an ideal back-up for RVP.

Also, we have lots of players on loan who will have their chance to shine next season like: Miyaichi, Lansbury and Wilshere will be back along with Frimpong.

We have LOTS of money. We could easily afford Hazard and Gotze.
