heard the higuin deal is on the verge of collapsing can't agree a fee with madrid

1.) 03 Jul 2013
Yeah this deal will not happen, now, we will not go above 20 million, madrid want 25. what a waste i'm a prime position to get one of the bests strikers in the world, and typical wenger just messes about.

2.) 03 Jul 2013
Over a couple of million as well. This annoys me because the club make about £3million per match. and we all know that we need a player of this quality. So losing out on him for a couple of million will leave most fans tearing their hair out

Deal will happen end of window, Higuain does not want too stay and wants to come. Higuain on Holiday until weekend. AFC willing to go to £22m

25mil for a player that can't get into the starting eleven, wise up fella, money doesn't grow on trees you know

5.) 03 Jul 2013
It typical Stubborn Arsenal set our own limit and not prepared to go over it even for a just a few Mill. more

4. 5 Million is not a lot in todays market, and let's be honest what type of player can you get for 4. 5Mill by saving money not paying that amount as extra for Hiquin. It silly really. A good opportunity to get a good player who still a good few years left at the top level. Withno real interest from other clubs after Juve went in for Tevez and by all accounts he wants to come and we are still dragging our heels yet again.

Only one source to this story, and his success rate is on a par with Cowdenbeath. Get worried when more reputable reports emerge. Think of the potential transfer fees RM are committed to this window and ask yourself if they are prepared to jeopardise one of their prime targets for £4 million and keep a dissatisfied player in the reserves.

Hig deal on the verge of collapse because we won't meet reals asking price where 4.5mill short of what they want. for me if your offering 21. 5 what's an extra 4 mill. how many deals/players have we missed out on because we won't pay that little bit extra?

'Typical Wenger' cause someone puts a rumour on a transfer site it must be true then. Love your optimism.

Your taking notice of second rate websites where the writers don't know a thing. km

Dont believe everything goal com tells you mate.
they always do all sides of a story (e. g. higuain in negotiations, higuain close, higuain collapsing etc. ) and eventually one of them becomes true and they refer to it later like it was them that broke it (very cheeky "journalism")
im still hoping he's coming in.

You mean you read it on A website

13.) 03 Jul 2013
This 'news' is being reported on a web site; hardly a reliable source.

There are 3 likely scenarios here:

1) the deal IS on the verge of collapsing over the transfer fee;

2) there is no deal at all, we were never in for Higuin and the whole thing is just media hype; or

3) not all parities are available for a deal to take place (holidays etc).

I have to say, most of the time Arsenal do like to do their business early on and do not discuss the details of negotiations. Don't get me wrong, the prospect of Higuin being an Arsenal player for the upcoming season is a bit tasty. I just think it's very unlikely that anyone really knows what's going on other than the parties involved and they aren't talking.

Anything else (including the above) is just speculation.

People can say whatever they want about Wenger, Gazidas etc, but there is NO WAY this deal will fail over a paltry 400k fee. We ain't that stupid!! Believe it when you see it 'officially' and stop relying on rags.

16.) 03 Jul 2013
For god's sake it hasn't even happened yet and people are moaning! Can we not at least see what Arsenal and Arsene do before we slaughter them?

17.) 03 Jul 2013
I agree what was said about a web site above, I once read an article that we had signed joe cole on a free transfer lol. Still it is hard not to get disgruntled when everyone else around us seems to have no problem securing their targets and we drag our feet

18.) 03 Jul 2013
Correct me if i'm wrong, but if we have no other competitor for his signature? why pay them 4 mill more and outbid ourselves?

we outbid juventus, and we have given madrid a better deal, if they wish to wait it out for another team to come in, so be it.

no one will pay 30 mill for a madrid sub.

he is our no1 target, other teams have not even bothered looking at him, do you think he will go to chelsea, being the 5th option, if they could not get their first 4?

He said he wants to go to a club he will feel loved. that's us. no1 priority and all. I can't defend our stance more.

we are doing the right thing.

since when did 4.5 mill, become loose change? rather use that 4.5 mill on a players wage for a year.

I hate wenger. I wish he would leave because he's destroying arsenal by not addin the reinforcements we need and has lost his way.3 million is nothing in this day and age. Thanks wenger we'll now be below Tottenham in future seasons

Name please sir you have voiced your opinion but we don't know who voiced it

To be fair £25million ain't a lot for a world class striker when compared to what other strikers are going for so let's pay it and get him on board

22.) 03 Jul 2013
You hate Wenger? Stay away from Arsenal Piers! He's the best thing that EVER happened to us!

Kronke is as useful as a chocolate firegaurd, how can he not sack Gazidas, this man comes out and tells the world how much money Arsenal have and what they can afford, Rooney now wants 200k a week Marouane Fellaini wants a reported 125k a week from 75k at everton. seems to me that the board use Wengers tightness against him, if we have the money then friggin spend it now and let's have a pre season together not last min cheap panic buys
