Gazzetta Dello Sport are reporting that Arsenal will use the RVP money to bid £20m for Wesley Sneijder.
Believable16
Unbelievable22
I know Sneijder's wages are astronomical but surely he must realise that he cannot continue to earn those sums for the rest of his carreer. And in leagues which are very unstable financially. If RVP hadn't of released that statement and committed his future to us than maybe It would of made sense but not now. Let's say Ta Ta to RVP and get as much cash for him as possible, even of that means selling him to Arsenal B up north. There's no way he'll play like that ever again in any other team on the world. I think he realises this now but too late in my eyes
Agree0
Disagree0
I agree with you, like many others before him who have left in search of bigger things, only to find that the grass isn't greener than at arsenal.
Agree0
Disagree0
Im an Arsenal fan and would love Sneijder to join our club but his wage demands would be to high.
Agree0
Disagree0
Agreed, his wages demands are reportedly HUGE. Would like to seem him down the Grove, but can't see it happening - I hope i'm wrong tho.
Agree0

On SSN there's a story on Malaga striker random who has received offers from english clubs so the club say. maybe this is AW replacement fro RVP, hope not and doubt it will happen but wenger doesn't like to spend lots of money on 1 player so it seems his type of signing

Have just heard from very reliable source, (a colleague of mine who has contacts within the Arsenal camp) that we are to put an unbelievable bid in for HULK to snatch from under the noses of Chelski. It will shatter all our negative thoughts that we have about the Arsenal board on cheap signings {Ed035's Note - not ever going to happen}

My my, the stakes are being raised aren't they.
Ben, I'm afraid that Diaby's knees wouldn't hold up under the stress of crouching over your face to perform. I have it on good authority though that Van Persie is willing to s**t on all the fans!
I'm not sure about Hulk, I thought he had a ridiculous release clause (£80 million?). I for one have not seen anything that would make me think he is worth a quarter of that amount. Would be better spent on getting the defence and midfield sorted.
I personally think that if you supply the balls, Podolski and Giroud are quite capable of sticking them away, unlike Gervinho.

just seen an article that says arsene is looking at lewandowski to replace rvp, on the gaurdian website, anyone got any news on this
luton gooner
Believable21
Unbelievable26
On german television (eurosport) they said that lewandovski coul move to arsenal and would be wenger's nr.1 target IF rvp really leaves.
Agree0

Well if that has any foundation then Wenger/Gazidis should be forcing the issue with RVP for a quick and final decision.

Its been on news now for the last 5 days from different sights, ide like to see it happen

Wellington Silva will go on loan to spain according to a very reliable source!
Believable27
Unbelievable8
No chance, we spent a chunk of last season without full backs, plus his a good player who does a decent job when asked to. Costas The Title.

Huh, isn't Wellington Silva more of an attacker than a full back?
Agree0
Disagree0
Isn't he a centre forward?
Agree0
Disagree0
Okay...first of all, to comment above...what? Wellington is a winger not a full back...second...why do you need a reliable source for something the play confirmed himself?
Thank you all for the posts, I am very happy of this in England in a big club which is the Arsenal, but I'll be loaned again to Spain! - @wsilva11
You guys need to do some research before posting stuff.

It would shock me to see Walcott leave, though some sources around the web suggest that Hoillet or Moses will replace him.

IF Walcott did leave, why would we pay to replace him with Chamberlain and Gervinho ready to take his spot?

Kagawa got player of the year.

Sorry to disappoint but kagawa got bundesliga player of the year !
sparky
Agree0

It's not gonna happen. Dortmund are doing great atm and as far as I'm aware they're not in a horrendous financial position so probably aren't interested in selling all of their best players.
Agree0
Disagree0
I think confusion has been formed due to Kagawa winning the bundesliga player of the year, whilst lewendowski was voted player of the season by the public. Thus both in their own right can call themselves player of the season.
Agree0
Disagree0
Great, young and those who think dortmund wouldnt want to sell, they would if arsenal offer 23mil +
he is the one player i wish we sign this summer if rvp goes

Giroud and Lewandowski cancel each other out their the same. Tha's like buying Kanu and Adebayor

M'vila is a done deal believe me on that.! from a very reliable source. and about Carzola and Goetze I am entitled to an opinion aren't I ? hence the use of 'preferably '!

If this is true, I will sleep with a smile on my face.

B52 is better than him. If we turn him into our target man then he will be much better.

You started off like you made sense and then you started talking about the attacking mids and i realized your full of bs.

Where did you hear this
Agree0

Regardless of what's said on here, all of us gooners dreaming that we will make a marquee signing that will enable us to challenge for the prem + champions league (like we all know we have the potential to do given a few tweeks here and there) the reality of it is (unfortunately or fortunately depending on the way you look at it) that this summer are all going to be under £20 mill relatively unknowns such as amalfitano,capoue,milo,matias suarez

Well Gilo a supporter is what you call someone that actually turns up for a match rather then someone who just watches the odd game on tv when its available or when they can so quite a big difference. Fan is someone who just follows.

Arsenal to sign Santi Carzola to finally fill the Fabregas gap! Mid field of Song Arteta Carzola -Navas-RVP-Podolski →90+ goals.
Believable8
Unbelievable47
Lol good one, Navas huh? homesick navas isn't coming to Arsenal.
Agree0

For anyone not on twitter i would really recommend it. you really get to see the finer mechanisms of how a bulls**t story comes to surface. someone just threw out today that we were signing a Euro-winning Spaniard and so far Pedro, Navas, Negredo, Cazorla and Llorente have been spat out. Then a rumour flew round that the target was Basque (because, of course, Arsenal ethnically profile all potential signings) and it was concluded in some quarters that it must be Llorente. Amazing how one epicentre of a ridiculous claim spurs off a whole earthquake of bulls**t.
Oleg Maputo
Agree0

Oleg is spot on with his post. We may be interested in a Spaniard but people need to be more patient and wait for some concrete information.
With regards to Cazorla, Malaga signed him for 21m Euros last summer and he played a big part in helping them qualify for the Champions League.
Do people seriously think that they're going to sell him to us? They are a wealthy club with lofty ambitions, they're not going to let their best players leave.
Stezza.
Agree0
Disagree0
Sorry Stezza not to blow down your brick house but could name a few players that are not just happy with playing CL football mate. Arsenal team last few seasons ring any bells?
All the crap aside have to agree tho he wont be for sale this season and would like to add, people... stop with BS rumours we are not all 10 years old and gullible. Gullible meaning retarded enough to believe so much rubbish that comes out from your youthfull escremities.
Or your Ars*s
Gavsta
P.s. sorry for the negativity but really some of this crap reallly should not make the site and yet you can make a sensible comment and it wont make it. Confused.com
Agree0
Disagree0
Gavsta,
I wasn't saying CL football was the only factor in Cazorla staying at Malaga.
You need to bear in mind that they're owned by a Qatari sheikh and are basically the Man City of Spain, a smaller team spending big to take on the major footballing powers.
They're not going to sell their best player 12 months after signing him.

Heard from a mate who's close to the Liverpool board that Wenger has inquired about Andy Carroll.
They're willing to sell for £25m !!
What do you all think?
It's a risk but I think he'd work well with podolski/chamberlain

No way , overated, why would we take him when bendtner is a that type of player but better at it?

Looool definalely not for 25mil mayb 10mil!
Agree0

Just because he went from Newcastle to Liverpool for £35m, doesn't mean he's worth anything like that. They had money burning a hole in there pocket after the sale of Torres. I wouldn't pay any more than £10m-£15m for him.

I think Giroud was bought in to fulfill that strong, man in the box, presence in the air role so I can't see it happening.
Certainly not for £25m but there's talk of him being allowed out on loan. To be honest, I'd take him on loan for a season.

I hope you put this through as it's related to Ben's post from last week. AFCAMDEN, who is one of the most reliable Arsenal tweeters, (trust me, I'd know; got the Wilshere injury, Bould and Banfield, Niang stories days before anyone else) said we're likely to sign a European cup winning Spanish player. It got me thinking about Ben's info re Cazorla. Maybe it's him. Interesting nonetheless.

hi eds, few updates to finally blow away some of the repetitive rumours on the site so can hopefully get some some true rumours not just usually names. Dempsey is in liverpool to undergo medical and complete switch to Anfield. Mvillas representatives are due in spain to finalise personal terms after barca agreed fee. hoilet is signing for qpr after no other offers in england and ozil at madrid is discussing new contract after mourinho claimed hes one of 1st names on his teamsheet and agreeing to sell kaka back to milan.
And finally loris is on his way to spuds! Hopefully conclusions of these deals this week will allow us to look at some real links. Thanks ed keep up hardwork
Believable30

IMHO that leaves Capoue, Biglia, maybe a bid for Moses and whatever we get offerred from where RVP is going (Dzeko if s**tty, Villa or Affelay if Barca). Plus AW's usual 1-2 youngsters (Mbaye Niang being a serious possibility).

Hi, not pretending to be transfer expert just pulled together all info from sites and skysports etc. like all fans who read the site looking for rumours. Just thought wud clear few rumours up. I could of out as was was dog walker of wengers aunties butcher and had been told info. personally i think signings will be cazorla, niang ( straight back on loan ) and biggest of all van persie on a 4year deal

Djourou has come out and said he is not leaving and the "agent" who made up all the Italy transfer rumours is not even his agent!
Im happy for him to b our 4th centre back, to play cup games etc, saves us having to shop for a new one...plus he is a decent CB (but should never play RB again)

As 4th choice centre backs go, he's a pretty decent one. There are few quality centre backs who are content to not play regular football. Completely agree that he shouldn't play RB for us!
