arsenals bid for mbaye niang has been accepted, believed to be 6m, however man city are keen to take him on trial so if he impresses they could also make a bid meaning the player would choose who he wants to join so this by no means hes coming to arsenal for certain, but still positive news none the less
I think Niang would choose Arsenal. If i was a 17 year old potential ace, I'd be looking to Arsenal to nurture my talent. He'll rot on the bench at city.

Clint Dempsey has been seen leaving Lodon Colney today to put pen to paper on a deal from Fulham..
Proof
I wish this was true but from what i saw on SSN yesterday, he has his heart set on liverpool!
No, more likely to end up at Anfield.
Out of curiosity, why would he choose Liverpool over us?
How can players choose manchester and liverpool based clubs over a central london club....it is not very pleasant up there!
The papers are making up s*** about Dempsey. He wants to join AFC due to wanting to remain in London and also CL. Liverpool want him but he wants AFC. We didn't want a bidding war. Fulham wanted a bidding war. He will join AFC.
And IMHO he will be a major success.
GoonerDan
I didnt see him at Colney yesterday, and i was there all day.........
Dempsey is in Germany with Fulham.....

Van persie bid this friday to be accepted before arsenal head of to asian tour, Wenger to discuss new deal for Walcott whilst away in priciple
Agent Farrell
Bid from who ???
Juventus
Have you not seen the recent news? RVP has not been allowed to leave and will play out his last year of contract. The gunners are willing to take a gamble and let him go for free in a year as he will then be nearly 30 and the chances of a contract exstention with the gunners is greater
Exactly from what club,,, hope if he goes its to juv not any of the manchester clubs
Thought asian tour started wednesday in malayia.
Good Luck RvP
One good season and you think you are larger then the club, I never want to see a modern day player kiss the badge.
True legends Tony Adams, Dennis Bergcamp and Ray Parlour
Whowever pays the most, let him go to city or any other epl side, its all about the dollar
Seems believable, BUT WHAT IS YOUR SOURCE
I say make him play out the final year of his contract, even if he is in the reserves - he signed up to that contract when he was injured and Wenger showed faith - he was quite happy to get more money then and commit - we need to show that we wont be pushed around by players, if we do sell him then make sure it is abroad even if the money is less than we could get from City - let's remember what a great club this is and how lucky the players are to be there

arsenal looking at wesley sneidjer, ibrahim afellay, klass-jan-huntelaar,negredo, ganso, m'baye niang, victor moses, etienne capoue, david villa
You missed santa claus
Quit posting crap from CaughtOffside. It's pretty useless information.
Some body's been reading caughtoffsides bs story's pele and maradona on close to agreeing deals to sign for mk dons by caughtoffside
Don't forget mickey f---in mouse
In the unlikely event that AFC are looking at any of the above, that's all we'll be doing: looking. There's no way our board would spend the amounts of cash required when they could just pay it to themselves instead. You've got more chance of seeing Lord Lucan riding into the Emirates aboard Shergar.
That's funny... this is caughtoffsides' list and they're 99.9% inaccurate
You left out Elvis Presley and Ghandi......what a load of bullocks...
Not forgetting messi,ronaldo and dennis bergkamp.
Lord Lucan riding into the emirates above Shergar!! Classic - And Im betting the original poster has no idea who you're on about! Respect to you sir.
I want my 1 minute back from reading ur stupid wish list and writing this post. U banker! Dublin Gunner!!
Nearly a full 11? Might aswell say Arsenal are going to sign Messi. Not even an Arsenal fan but it's amazing why people make up stuff purely because they want them to join the club.
Fella's, don't be too hard on the muppet, the mental capacity of those looking at the CaughtOffside 'website' is somewhat lower than a half-eaten Donut.
They r but they won't sign them
I will say, again, that David Villa is recovering from a bad leg break, will not be fit for the start of the season, and IS NOT GOING ANYWHERE!! Did you not notice that Spain played most of the Euros without a recognised striker?!
They are mostly all dated out and over-developed stories, just hope arsenal find a replacement for walcott ( afellay over moses )
Yeah I heard that too!
I would take Victor Moses. If I'm really honest, it wouldn't be a big loss if Thjeo left as we have Oxlade-Chamberlain. Theo is a good player but he does lack a footballing brain and Moses is a big strong winger who knows just that little bit more in the final third and does have a good shot on him.
Really we'll sign all of these players
17 Jul 2012 18:34:28
SSN reporting that both arsenal and liverpool are interested in Mirallas from Olympiakos.Article says the player has a buy out clause of around 6.5 million and the club are willing to let interested parties talk to the player
Hope this is true, I like Kevin Mirallas, but I think he'd join as a replacement for Walcott, their too similar, pacey attacking wingers.
Could be a replacement for Arshavin, or Walcott put as a striker this season maybe.
D
And there is our back-up striker. Giroud will be our main-striker, Van Persie will leave. Vela going to Sociedad, Bendtner will be going as well. We got enough cover on top.
17 Jul 2012 17:42:35
is arsenal still going for a CAM? if so, who?
Paulinho by the sound of it.
D
Another Denilson in the making..... whatabout your mum?
Jack is our no.1 CAM.
Rob
If Wilshere is back and can get back up to match fitness and be as good as he was pre-injury, we won't need anyone, but that's a HUGE if.
Paulinho
17 Jul 2012 17:28:30
paulinho will join soon from corinthias for a fee near £11 million although arsenal have bidded £9 million. if milo has a succesful olympics then he will join arsenal for around £3 million. m'baye niang might join for £6 million but he's deciding between arsenal, spuds and man city. the transfer of joselu is being discussed between arsenal and real madrid but arsenal will face competition for his signature. on the goalkeeper front then kenneth udjus isn't too far away from joining arsenal.
so in summary
. paulinho looks like he could join
. niang will join arsenal/city/spuds
. milo might join
. joselu could join
. udjus looks set to join
Yeah we can all quote a newspaper....you dont know anything....km
Sensible sounding post.
Km this is a rumour sight. It doesn't state anywhere that you can't post paper talk. It's a rumour.
Udjus isnt any good....b rated norwegian gk
People get criticised for making stuff up AND posting paper talk. bit unfair
17 Jul 2012 15:59:37
Arsenal Football Club has announced that striker Carlos Vela is in San Sebastian this evening for final discussions about a permanent move to Spanish La Liga side Real Sociedad.
The 23-year old Mexican international spent the whole of 2011/12 on loan with the Spanish club and enjoyed a successful campaign in La Liga, scoring 12 times in 35 appearances. Vela made his Arsenal debut in 2008 and has made 62 appearances, scoring 11 goals.
Further news will be issued on www.arsenal.com in due course.
POINTLESS POST!
I second that.
Your POINTLESS POST! post is pointless!
Wow. Some people really have nothing better to do. This is not a rumour. It's a fact. We can all read arsenal.com.
Good luck to the lad as a gooner i quite liked the lad just never had a good chance to show
I wanna know how much we're getting for him. Any info anyone?
So let me get this right..... You would prefer people to post "rumours" that are facts! Or "rumours" that are bull s**t ? It might be called football rumours, but I'm sure the majority would prefer posts to be factually correct! Or am I missing something?
The clue is in the word 'Rumour', if its plastered all over Arsenal.com, its no longer a 'rumour' - come on guys!! its like explaining to a 5 year old!
17 Jul 2012 15:55:43
reports, that Arsenal won't allow RVP to leave. And Givemefootball.com just announced, that Arsenal apparently turned down a 25 Mio offer for Walcott, cause they don't want to loose him either. Good News, if these sources are right!:)
Well the fact that you used givemefootball.com just lost you a lot of credibility...
If they wer offered 25 mill for walcott im sure wenger would pack his bags and drive walcott to his new club himself
I would accept £25m for walcott even if he still had 5 years on his contract this has to be absolute bull
Bedford Gooner
I doubt Arsenal would keep RVP and disrupt our season - if he wants out let him go!
Not even Chelsea are stupid enough to pay 25m for Walcott only Liverpool pay stupid money for Players (35m for carroll) also arsenal would have but there arm off for that amount! Another bulls*** post!!
U must b smokin some strong stuff!25 mill 4 walcott like the man b4, wenger would bite some1s arm off 4 that price!
Turning down 25MM for Walcott is just stupid.
H, 25 mill for Theo, hha!
Ash
I'd strongly expect Arsenal to accept a £25m bid for Walcott.
Haha you guys are pretty nice. I postet this becuase it is a rumour who is all over the internet and on sources like givemefootball. and you guys write it is anpother bulls*** post. yeah might be not true. but it is a rumour. and nothing i made up. so shut your mouth.
If Arsenal don't want to lose Theo, then his contract should've been sorted out at the end of last season. It won't hurt to play Theo through the middle in his natural position, but if he does go can you blame him? sorting out a contract in it's last year doesn't exactly make a player feel part of it does it?
17 Jul 2012 15:55:41
*****YELLOW FEATHER***** Good afternoon fellow Gooners, i have a little news for you after returning from my world adventures with the England party in POL/UKR. We all know that Podolski has penned a deal to come to the Emireates, but what of Giroud, well he is currently sharpenening his studs ready to be shown to the worlds media, with a few more faces coming into North Londonshire. Firstly some bad news, it seems that RVP is going, Juve will complete the signing on him in the next 2 weeks, the value, who knows, but at least he is not going to Manchester, also out will be Arsehavin, Chamakah, Squillachi, Bentner, Almunia, Park and Gervinho, again prices i dont know, but there all going. Now for the excitment bit...... whose coming in, well, here are the list of players i can comfirm will be on there way to the Emirates before too long. M'Vila - deal almost done for €20M, Lewandski - 75% done deal, price unknown, Affelay - deal done for €9M, Sakho - deal 85% done for €6M. So with Giroud done and M'Vila and Affelay done, expect a show to present these very soon, and with all the sales, we will expect to have a defeciet of about £5M pounds, in my reckoning, some good business as the war chest remains intact and a €25-30M bid for Mario Geotze or the Brazillian guy whose name i have forgot (young kid who knows Santos) will follow in early August. My main concern is a goal keeper, Shez is good enough but we need someone to challenge him, Loris would be ideal in my opinion, but we will have to wait n see. So before i go, he is a little taste of the squad as it will be for the start of 2012-13 season.................... Shez / Flapper / (new guy) / Gibbs / Santos / Sagna / Mert / TV5 / Kos / Sakho / Theo / The Ox / Song / Rambo / Wilshire / Arteta / Rosicky / M'Vila / Affelay / Podolski / Giroud / Lewandoski / Ryo............... and a couple of talented youngsters to pad us out. Well i have to go now, need to pack my bags for the Far East, looking forward to China and Hong Kong. ***** YELLOW FEATHER *****
Thanks for repeating what we already know
You just missed Vela on the departed list. And RVP is in training, pics on arsenal.com.AFC is keeping him
Gervinho will 100% not leave
aLOYALafcfan
Person. gervinho will be starting next season on the left or right swapping over with walcott and poldiLAD. tykbye
Almunia has already been released by the club.
Why would gervinho be leaving
Goonerluke
***** YELLOW FEATHER *****. Vela has been off the radar for ages, i also didnt mention all the others on loan did i ?? Gervinho is going back to France and as for repeating what's already been said....... i dodnt see any of this before i wrote it ??
Plz dont live in fairy tale
Gervinho wont leave, we wont sign a new cb eg sakho as if we were why would we have promoted bartley to the first team and also almunias already left, the fact that you didjnt know that and havent listed bartley in the squad for next season shows theres no way this is true as how could you know about all of these supposed transfer deals however dont even know that almunia was released weeks ago and that bartleys staying?
LOL and More LOL you're a funny guy.
Why don't you write a story with J.K.Rowling?
Immediately you mentioned gervinho, i knew you were a bull full of s*** i.e bulls***. why would we sell gerv after one season that is not too bad IMO
Tojay the great gooner
Lol puffin the magic dragon a bit 2 much i see.do u really think wenger would have that much of a an overhaul of the squad?b real
Someone's been on Football manager again!
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
There some really Good COMEDIANS on this site !!!

On your trip to China/Hong Kong, remember you must have an adult accompany you on the plane.
We ain't even made a bid 4 vila
***** YELLOW FEATHER*****, my two year old nephew can write more correctly structured sentances than some of you
Yellow feather is like the sewers..Full of p*ss & crap.
'Looking forward to China and Hong Kong' Leave it out, I reckon you haven't got much more than a fiver on your Oyster card.
So, just returned from Poland/Ukraine now off to China/Hong Kong, you are going to have to stop spinning that little globe at school, you might fall off :-))
Sakho for 6mil euros. Ermmm... I just don't know what to say :S
Gervinho will NEVER leave this season.
Can your nephew spell ******yellow feather******? ask him what a sentance is? He'll reply a sentence do you mean uncle
Off to China, you are packing your bags to go and visit your home planet!!
Once you have been there, you might come back down to earth!
At last someone with some REAL facts! I can't thank you enough for putting my mind at rest. You have, however, missed off the potential swap deal we have lined up with Squillaci and Messi + Iniesta + cash. Then again, you have been out of the country....
"Can your nephew spell ******yellow feather******? ask him what a sentance is?"
WELL DONE ON THAT.
IT IS SENTENCE BY THE WAY!!
All crap but an enjoyable read in fairness.

17 Jul 2012 15:54:11
hi guys just some catch up for you. araenal have held talks about m'vila but no succesful bid has been mase. also sky sports believe arsenal have made a bid for paulino. the fee is around the £6m mark but could rise with intrest from other clubs. all the others are rumours, but i would suggest bringing msybe 1 or 2 english players into the squad cos we dont really have many.

What a complete waste of words.

Strange development in the RVP saga as Arsenal 'Force ' him to see out his contract
source:
♚
The board are not that stupid as they are to greedy and will cash in if he dont want to stay, i personally think we should cash in on him now.
If they force him to stay he'll play crap (by choice) or get injured as usual. either way nobody will be interested in him next season if that happens again and he'd be better off signing a new contract. Hope he just cops on and signs a contract with us.
Rob
I have always said we should do this. Imagine if we are near (or at) the top come December. RvP will be singing a different tune.
Keap him, if we're are doing well he could stay on, and it would also give us time to intergrate our new strikers. if rvp helps us secure a top 4 position he'd basically be paying for himself.
I agree, if we're top come January he will change his mind.
OOOOHHHHH RAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRR
FINALLY SOME BALLS FROM ARSENAL !
LOVE IT COYFG
GIMMEG6
(yes the caps were necessary)
So...your source is Her Majesty?
God I hope this is true it's about time arsenal showed some principles and some balls COYG!!!
17 Jul 2012 15:15:13
Just a quick note carlos vela wasn't anywhere to be seen in the training pics do you think this is a sign that he is gone? Also the fact that bentner and arshavin were?
Also the camara man seemed to be focused on RVP I think this might be a case of trying to insure people that there is still a chance that he could stay.
However Walcott was also nowhere to be seen ? So what could so this mean?
Vela is in advanced talks with Real Sociedad over a move, the deal is expected to be completed by the end of the week. Rumoured fee to be around 4m with a large sell on fee, around 35 - 40%.
Ben X.
P.S Walcott doesn't return till Thursday, possibly Friday, same with all the guys that got through to the knock out stages of the Euros.
Ben X.
Vela is gone as Arsenal.com said he's negotiating his contract...Walcott won't be back until thursday or Friday along with Giroud, Podolski, Ox, and Koscielny
Arsenal website confirmed he's in talks with Real Sociadad
Rob
Podolski and giroud wernt in any of the pictures either..
Arsenal have agreed a transfer fee with real sociedad but its now up to vela to accept the contract sociedad gives him
DN~
Its only a combination of pictures you dont expect to see everyone.. eg no mertesacker koscielny..
carlos vela is on the homepage in talks with a spanish team..
batch
They have extra day of cause of euros
Or just maybe the camera was pointing in the opposite direction, if you really want to worry, RVP is not in the latest Arsenal catalogue, wow!!!!!
17 Jul 2012 14:35:03
Just a question really pls eds and fellow gooners. I know podolski has been officially unveiled. I'm just wondering what the hold up is with giroud. Unless I missed his unveiling. Could we be waiting for maybe a double or triple announcement. Or is it just legal and paperwork. Be great if anyone can clear this up. Cheers
Goonerdazza
Giroud has been unveiled...that's why he's on the official Arsenal website.
Lol you definitely missed the unveiling.
He has been unveiled though there was no photo shoot of him signing with us like there was with podolski.
Cheers fellas I did think there was a lot less fuss made over giroud
Goonerdazza
How has everyone missed this? Giroud was unveiled before Podolski and their was a photo shoot :)

Barcelona are in negotiations to purchase Ignasi. Miquel from us.
Turkish Delight
You do realise he came from barcelona a year ago?
Excellent rumour, already reported as a potential LOAN move on dozens of sites over last 7 days.
Tell them only too happy to accommodate them - fee £25 million + Fabregas !
Barcelona Droped Him He Joined Another Team Then Arsenal To Him From Them.
Why On earth Would We Sell Him
Haha if only this was true as he is awful.
Adam
He left barcelona 8 years ago
There not going to go after him just yet. Busquets and co have yet to tell the media about how they shared showers together in La Masia. Besides they have Fontas.
Sydney Gooner
How can you say hes awful? hes 19 and has played only a handful of games for arsenal, in where all he has been solid
Don't agree Ignasi Miquel is awful. Do you actually watch our team? The kid has played well when dragged in to fill in.
He has the potential to be very good in the future.
Completely agree...how could you possibly say he is awful? He is solid for a youngster...could be top Spanish defender years down the road.
Miquel is definitely going to be class in the future. All of you who say he isn't good or go as far as to say he is "awful" have no clue
Nope. your wrong pal. Barca B team want to take him on loan.
cammy out!
Xxx
From what i have seen of him he is nowhere near a 1st team spot or even the bench. remeber last season at home to liverpool come on as a sub and was blowing out of his arsenal after about 20 mins, his positioning is worse than djourou has no pace atall. sorry just my opinion would sooner have stepanovs back.

17 Jul 2012 12:57:01
Hi eds, good work as usual! Heard couple of rumours re van persie sale and thought would share them as this is a rumour site! Heard chelsea willing to offer sturridge and torres in straight swap for walcott and ven persie! I know most would value strurridge and torres alot more but chelsea would take a hit as reduces wage bill a great deal. also heard man u offered £12mill and berbatov for van persie in late may which was turned down straight away although wenger is a fan of berbatov as feel closest player in prem who cud fill the bergkamp role. i personally wud snap chelseas hand off if true! what you think eds! {Ed035's Note - I can't confirm if this is true or false but it would definitely be worth thinking about, I don't know what weekley wage Torres is on but our style of play would suit him much better than Chelsea's, this is my own opinion so I would like to hear other people's views on this??
If this was true I would take this
fed up with players who dont want to be at the club. have players who want to play for the team . like they did in the 70's 80's and 90's . bring it on thats what I would say
Swap deals never happen between rival clubs, i don't now why people spread this rubbish. lies lies lies
I wouldn't mind taking a risk on Torres. Actually I'm quite certain he'd do well at Arsenal. I do, however, aso believe that we couldn't afford his wages and also, player swap deals are extremely rare especially involving names of this caliber. I find it very hard to believe this rumour
Eds? where do you decide what dodgy rumours are and what arent cause there is so so many nonsense ones like this one. {Ed027's Note - how do you know its nonsense, torres clearly isnt settled at chelsea, whilst sturidge has dropped fown the pecking order, its not impossible
This is ridiculous. Why would Chelsea get rid of Torres and Sturridge to reduce the wage bill and then take on RVP and Walcott from Arsenal that are looking to get contracts of £125k+ and £80k+ respectively. If that if the case then to save a worthwhile amount of money Torres and Sturridge would have to realistically be on £225k+ combined, which would surely price them out of Arsenal's budget.
Ridiculas idea, why would we even entertain it? Not that we are, just some more BS/Championship Manager style rumours. Get a grip people, from all the rumours i have read on this site, we would have signed half of Europes top talent by now. Jeez...
I shared some info on this site for the first time last week...afobe loan, hold up on mvia etc etc...then got slaughtered for revealing the torres interest and got called every name under the sun.
The question of who gets to judge whats bull and what isnt may well be a fair one..but by the same token who are you to slate a perfectly feasible transfer...just because player swaps between big clubs hasnt happened before or 'his wages are too high'....fact is there is interest in Fernando Torres our end...whether he would take a pay cut in order to regain his reputation in a team that plays a style that would see him net 20+ a season is up for debate.
S-bo
If arsenal were to get this miraculous swap then im sure arsenal would pay them a large signing on bonus instead of a larger weekly wage
bs18
If true which I very much doubt I agree with Ed. Arsenal style of play would suit Torres perfectly
The reason why RVP is successful at arsenal and not Holland - no service
Reason why Torres was successful at Liverpool and not at Chelsea or Spain - service
Torres to Arsenal = complete sense, with his finishing, he could be sensational for us
Really guys? We would be getting the short end of this deal. Plus like one poster stated swamp deals don't typically happen btw rivals.
Dont get me wrong I obviously rate Sturbridge and Torres but I would take RSVP and theo. Sturridge is a bit greedy and Torres is a HUGE gamble
Mate i think were just realistic gooners, in the fact that every transfer window for the last 10 years i have dreamt that we would make a marquee signing, the kind that puts fear into the opposition only for nothing to happen but lose our best players and replace them with youngsters that are barely known or average players that can do a job.So i think the anger stems from years of disappointment and the feeling of being let down as our rival clubs splash big cash on the players we dream of seeing in an arsenal shirt.and hearing your kind of bulls***, ulitmately leads to disappointment because it aint ever gonna happen
Would love this to happen, but its prob not going to. Swap player deals between rival clubs is rare, but don't u guys remember the gallas - cole swap some years ago? well we didn't think that was gonna happen back then either. But after Chelsea and Di Mateo have had so much patience with Torres, and he just now recently showed signs of the form he had back in the early days in Liverpool i find it hard to believe. Would be stupid of them to offload Torres now.
That deal would be bad as fucc
17 Jul 2012 12:44:45
arsenal have bid 6m for mbaye niang in an attempt to warn off interest from man city and have also bid 9m for brazilian midfielder paulinho
Wish we would use that 6 million on Afellay instead

17 Jul 2012 12:10:29
Sky Sports news website has Rennes stating that clubs have approached about Mvila but NO OFFERS have been made. They also state that Doumbia's move to WBA has broken down.
Lots of papers saying we have bid 9mil for Paulinho. Goal scoring MF apparently. Sounds promising.

Robin van Persie is not going to the Asian tour.....
They need to sell him ASAP!! He's not bigger than Arsenal fc.
Nothing worse than having a player at your club who does not want to be there! maybe we should cash in but id rarther lose 10 mill and let him go juve then sell to city for higher figure. why did the sheik not just buy arsenal rarther than buying city and poaching (if rvp does go there) 4 of our first team player's?
GET HIM OUT FAST HE IS BAD NEWS HANGING AROUND WHEN HE CLEARLY DONT WANT TO STAY
Stop shouting!
( If you are too thick to understand, it means it is impolite to post in block capitals- that's the big letters )
DRY YOUR EYES
Rvp if he goes we need sign a ammazing PLAYER not some french person that will take 3 seasons to get good then we will well him its true we just a selling clup buisness clup we will just end up being a mid table team unless we get usmonov
I'm not convinced that we do need an 'amazing' player to replace him. Was he really amazing? He had an awesome season, but if others stepped up and scored a few, then we wouldn't need to relay on him so much. A solid ACM improved CB, the Ox having a breakthrough season with Podolski and Giroud really pushing themselves forward, will be more than enough to replace RvP
17 Jul 2012 10:32:46
Arsene made an official bid for M™Baye Niang.
6mil pounds
Oh goody.. another 1 for the future.. we need immidiate impact! cough up some money and bring in player's who can atleast help us compete now! as a fan who pays outragous somes of money to watch my beloved team its only fair that some of that money should go in to the team!
Plenty of people would be happy to take your seat mate.
I'll buy your season ticket off you as I am pretty happy thus far with the Transfer Window, and I don't think Arsene has finished yet.
We are beginning to look like a team with a pretty decent squad.
People seem to be forgetting about Wiltshire, if we get M'Vila then excellent, Kos and Song to maybe sign new contracts, Ox with another season, Gervinho and Mertersacker second season improvements, roll on the new season.
17 Jul 2012 10:02:50
From very reliable source.
MVilla will be announced this week either today or Tommorow. Arsenal also have a deal set up for affelay but will prob not be announced before Asia tour.
Seantgooner
This M'Vila transfer must have been announced like 50 times now.
Sydney Gooner
So what is your very reliable source?
Try looking at proper media sources because I have just read on sky sports news that Rennes have released a statement saying they haven't had an offer from anyone for m'vila yet
M'Vila remains with the club(Rennes)despite links to a host of clubs, and Saint Sernin says no deal has yet been agreed for him.
That's what SSN says.
According to Rennes they even had a bid for him
Pant
Uhmmm, where do u get tht kind of information? whats ur source?...
Everyone just keeps going on about M'Vila deal being done while Rennes' president just stated how they have not had any formal bids for him at all.
Heinz Tomato Sauce- A very reliable sauce, stay away from cheap stuff
17 Jul 2012 08:51:20
Breaking News: Robin van Persie has re-iterated his position about Arsenal and does not even want to see out his final year as he wants a move this summer. This has prompted Arsenal to remove him from the clubs catalogs and kit ads. Arsene Wenger is unlikely to shop for a replacement as it was stated earlier that Giroud was bought for exactly that purpose.
Lack of ambition beginning to creep in.
Arsene Wenger has gone suspiciously quiet in the transfer window and only m'Vila has been mentioned with some interest. A deal is likely to have been completed subject to a medical.
that's all for now more on RVP as soon as I get it.

Bull on the M'Vila rumour. Their president has just come out and said that no club has made a proper approach, i.e a bid of any kind, so no fee has been agreed or deal even close. He will be allowed to leave though should the valuation be matched...
Lack of ambition beginning to creep in _ you are sounding like RVP
Nasri, Ade & RVP - all about money - some players fall in love with a club and some players fall in love with money - lets find more club players
Your just posting what SSN said and even they wouldnt know this quick. Its just speculation. And he was never in the pictures for the Away kit, we saw that last week (he wasnt just removed)

" suspiciously quiet in the transfer market"
Chill out guys, I got this.
We made two "signings" before the window even opened.
We've apparently tabled a bid for Corinthians paulinho (who I admit I know very little about)
We're keen on Affelay and after he turned down a offer from Lille, it's looking like he's wanting to join us if he leaves barca.
We're looking at a midfielder from ligue 1, trust me on that.
Not to mention players from the euros are only now starting to return to their clubs.
As long as we sign players by the end of the window, then relax.
Stop being so impatient.
D {Ed035's Note - Well said
This is getting really boring just because you cant see him the purple kit they are still advertising the home shirt with Van P, this means nothing Walcott is in the purple kit does not mean he is staying does it
Wenger is always quiet about the transfer market, does his work behind closed doors then makes an announcement once the player has signed. This does not mean he isnt working on signing players.
Just visited the Arsenal.com and he is still on the site. Dont chat sh*t.
This is "The Sun" BS...
Lack of ambition,rubbish! the giroud deal was already done while arsenal where doing their best to convince rvp to stay.some people just like stirring sh-te
trev the gooner
Did you read the newspaper all by yourself?
Giroud could be good.. chamahk was meant to be good also.. we can not have an un tested premier league striker be our main target man. i think he is good and so hope he does well but fact is.. epl is not the french ligue 1. if rvp goes, i say try for affelay for the wing and slide theo into the middle.. i think theo would do well given the chance. weakest part of theo's game is supply yet he is our right winger. infront of goal he can be deadly. and he has ample epl experiance..
They Didnt Say Giroud Was A Replacement They Said They Bought Him Early In Case Something Like This Happened They Wouldnt Have To Panic.
Marty I posted this YESTERDAY it was posted by Ed today!
Arsene Wenger spoke to Mvila during the Euros and everything was done theoretically. Formal negotiations begun on Monday after Mvila came back from holiday.
♚
Proper agree with the guy who said "chill out guys, i got this"
just wait and see who and when we get the players in.
remember Wenger has an eye for a transfer and plays his cards very close to his chest!

Really?RVP was right to question Arsenal's ambition IMO I'm tired of bragging about 3rd place and finishing above Spurs!there's no trophy for that! If spending money is what it takes then crack open that cheque book! Giroud and Podolski combined might score approx 40 goals Max! which is not much more than RVP (37) We have a financial Leviathan in the name of Usmanov and were keeping up with Kroenke and Hill-Wood IMO the reason for Our barren run! Kroenke joined the arsenal family in 2007! coincidence? I think not! this system hasn't worked for 7 years change couldn't make it anyworse would it?
Wenger is not the problem...Hill-Wood is!

12 hours ago you posted that M'vila would be announced today and Wenger is taking a close look at Munain. Now you say all is quiet and wenger isn't doing anything. Anyone can create BS rumours like this. YOU know zilch about transfers so stop posting crap.
Chess
Not sure what BS you have been reading - have you even checked the Arsenal website? Just logged on to the 'first-team back in training' page, and every second picture is a close-up of RVP.

Chess this site is called Arsenalrumours. I post what I am told by various sources I write for 3 different sports websites... whatever I post afterwards is MY OPINION! I AM ALLOWED ONE YOU KNOW!
Chess I said Mvila was Done not announced THERE'S A DIFFERENCE! I POSTED ABOUT MODRIC TO REAL MADRID 3 WEEKS AGO I DIDN'T SEE YOU COMPLAINING THEN!

I read on bbc and times that we have made a £9m bid for paulinho of Corinthians. Very good young player, any truth in this?
Inter are also after him, they have already had a bid rejected at around 8 mil
I have to say, I trust most things posted on BBC sport. The Times are very reliable as well, so a reasonable level of truth to this I would say.
Iv seen it too. very good signing if we can get him
No way in hell this guy would get a work permit! Nothing special about him

made up rumour by fake wum account which was picked up by sky italia and now rebounded over here as a story
Dont know much about him! what pos does he play, how old old etc? anybody please?
Just watched him on youtube.. i yawned. bog standarded south american. they usually dont adapt here and reminded me alot of denilson!
Looks very Very average he doesn't look any better than the young midfielders we have I.e Lansbury,eastmond,frimpong,coquelin etc. Why spend 9 mil on an unproven poor player when Dempsey is available for cheaper
Let us just get Ganso. At least he has the "flair" element and reminds me of Juan Roman Riquelme!

Eurosport claiming Arsenal are interested in Afellay.
NW
Afellay is a great player.
I think we should get sum english players
Back again with more bull***t
^
Like Liverpool? Hmm
NW {Ed001's Note - didn't do City any harm to have Milner, Lescott and Barry in the team, plus Richards, Johnson etc in the squad.}
^^
yeah but the foreign players made them look good! Didn't help chelsea to have terry, cahill, cole, lampard and sturridge - 6th in the epl. England players are always over rated and over priced. look at a young flopped at man utd
Mate. Just because it's me it doesn't mean it's BS. I've even said EUROSPORT so blast them, not me you person.
What did those English players do to help City win the League? Only Lescott was a big part and even he nearly threw away the title for City

affelay has rejected a bid from lille as he wants to sign for arsenal. wenger please sign him because he hasnt even signed for us and he is showing commitment to arsenal, + he's class
JW.19
Don't know how you can say he's class when he's barely played in the last year and was awful at the euros. I hope we avoid him
Paul -Rochester
Have to agree with Paul, he's always running after the ball but doesn't do anything with it. A golden retriever can do that. Not too excited about this rumour I have to say
He's young and has time to get better. we need him
Afellay is NOT good!
Chess
He has had bad time with injury's, he is a good player, a season to adapt and to get his fitness up could just make him a great player. rvp says he is good so i am enclined to believe he is! dont forget rvp had a horrible euro's also and we all know how good he is. afterall if we was to get him for 6mill.. and it doesnt work out.. oh well. we spent 15 on arshavin and that hasnt exactly been a sucsess has it? 11 mill on gervinho.. list go's on. for 6 mill we could have a world class player, think its worth a punt at that price personelly!
I agree 6mil is a not a lot for a player of his class! Im going to be deadfully honest Affelay is a much better than Ramsey, Arshavin and Chamakh!
