Chamakh to make the move to Crystal Palace later today. undergoing medical at the moment, and should be announced by the end of today.

This surely means that another striker will be coming in. I know Walcott and Podolski can play up front, but Wenger plays them as wingers, meaning we need another out and out striker. If Liverpool are right and don't sell us Suarez, i'm quite worried that we won't have a good enough strike force to challenge. Abel Hernandez anybody? Not sure how realistic he is?

I heard rumours (from this site, not itk) that we might line up 40m Euros for Benzema - but surely, if we are going as high as 45/50m for Suarez, Real would just jack up the price - the same way everyone who sold to City did (25mil for Milner? 25-odd for Nasri?!)

IMO, publicly stating having 70mil was a huge mistake - just means clubs will hold out for as large of a chunk of the pie as possible (or, maybe we have double that, and saying 70 was just a ploy? hmm)

Shame the boss couldn't get the best out of him. One that got away, the boy had talent.

There is no chance of spending any large sums of money until we are guaranteed a CL place. Only then we will panic buy the leftovers. The club are just too cautious. If we do not qualify expect a lot of disgruntled fans to be calling for change. Only good thing is that there will be plenty of spare seats available. I think that the game against Fenerbahce is massive for the future of our club.

Hernandez isn't good enough from what I've seen. Would much rather have Muriel or even remy haha.

I really feel giroud can be a top top striker
