a reliable source close to arsenal, that had said cazorla would be coming to arsenal 1 month prior his arrival, states that arsenal are about to spend 40 million on a german international.

Hopefully, this means we are getting a world class player, but who?
gundogan? ozil? reus?

keep the faith lads

hope its reus because we need a player who can play as a striker and winger. but will not complaint if it is �zil or gundogan. and will be the happiest person if we got all 3 of them.

If so, it'd be ozil, gundogan would cost

3.) 29 Aug 2013
Lebonowski, maybe, only one worth 40mil

If you got this from a certain chap on twitter he hasn't got one right all summer {Ed013's Note - If its the one I am thinking of he is a fraud}

Could be draxler he has a 38.5 million buyout

I remember someone saying we were going to sign a Spanish international and it happened 4 weeks later . Lee Dixon said something regarding signing two big names on the tv on ITV. and to top it all a guy who I meet this evening who lived in a very smart house in Hampstead . he was with his wife so he wasn't going to lie in front of her.He claimed to have been nearly every European away game in the last 25 years. as I departed I asked him if he knew of a anyone that we would sign. He replied that we were goi g to sign a big named player and it was going to happen after the Bale deal was completed.I pressed him for the name but said it wasn't right putting names out there. This guy had a nice house in Hampstead Garden suburb.Seemed genuine . If he was in the know and was going around telling everyone no one would confined in him anymore.I said defender or forward.He said forward, we'll sort of. again reluctant to give away too much. I know this doesn't mean a thing, but I sense a surprise .Km

Would you fork out £40m for Schweini? he'd fit the CDM/not really a CDM role
other than Ozil/Rues I can't see us spending that much on a player,
even then Ozil would be ridiculously overpriced at £40m imo

Ed13 would the initials GA on his twitter mean enough to you to suggest we are talking about the same person? {Ed013's Note - He is one of a few idiots on there mate}

Dortmund would not sell one of their best player (rues) to us especially when we are in the same group as them.

I second seb schweinstieger, would love to have him in the midfield.

Lewandowski is Polish.

And about this bloke on Twitter:

As an avid skeptic myself, I can't stress enough the difference between this particular fella and 99% of all twitter ITK's. Most of his reputation is gained from the onslaught of abuse that is spat his way, and clueless people who twist his words to their own fairytale script.

I've been following him for over a year now, and I would say that 80-90% of the information that he does 'relay' from his 'sources' seems legitimate information at the time - It only takes one little bit of information that was right at the time to turn out irrelevant at a later stage, for the whole twitter-sphere to erupt into a pitch-fork-wielding mob.

If any of you listen to the ABergkampWonderland podcast (I thoroughly recommend it!), the regulars on there personally know the fella and have repeatedly confirmed that his 'source' or 'sources' are genuine.


Ultimately, you can take what he says as gospel or with a pinch of salt - Either way, there's no reason to get so wound up about it. There's especially no reason to subject the guy to abuse.


Here's hoping that what he said ("Arsenal ready to spend £40mill on German international) is true, and once we've beaten £90mill worth of Spuds, we can welcome our nice shiny new German international to the team!
