More news coming out of Italy, with Roma's director of football Walter Sabatini reported to have flown into London this morning. Tottenham and Arsenal have been linked with Roma forward Erik Lamela, with Spurs said to be closing in on the highly-rated Argentina international.

Getting more and more gutted if Spurs land this one as well, pfffff dint Lamela only want to play for a CL Club?

Thats cause at this rate the spurs are a sure thing to finish in the top 4 with Arsenal looking likely to finish outside the top 6. I know its a long way to go, but I can't see us attracting the types of players we need. Only signing between now and the end of the window will be Flamini. We can make a decent bid even when we're desperate.

At least Flaminis on a free so can be signed when the windows shut (if we found noone else). I know its besides the point though. Ugh Arsenal.

Yea but he is not arsenal "quality" ( pronounced with french accent). if you know what wenger says. I myself don't know what "quality"( pronounced with french accent) we look for.

maybe the player has to cost next to nothing, he has to be ready to accept the minimum wage, and have exceptional footballing ability.

yes Viola I think I understand now.

It may not have been you, but I have seen 'Viola' a few times on the rumours page recently. I think you mean 'voila'. Unless, of course you do indeed mean a large violin type instrument.

I'm not being a total person, leaving the accent off the a is to be expected.

Viola!

:oops:

{Ed022's Note - Whether it's voilà or Viola (yes, small bowed string instrument, I think we got the point...}

But Lakerville, if it's Flamini you are referring to he definitely was 'Arsenal quality' especially in that final season. Many of us were sad to see him go. We lost some steel and bite for the following years.
