Hi Eds, this is somewhat of a random post, I haven't heard any rumours regarding Zlatan, but do you know if there is any interest from Arsenal or any other club for the big man? Thanks

{Ed001's Note - they would like to offload him, but no takers because of his wages.}

Any chance of seeing Song return?
I think he was the player who gave us strength, had the ability to defend, and just as much pushing forward.

{Ed002's Note - I wouldn't think so.}

Song was a defensive liability, the amount of needless free kicks he gave away on the edges of our area was ridiculous.

Nonsense. Song was an absolutely fantastic footballer. The second most assists in the league behind David Silva in his final season for us, and gave us bite in the middle of the park. I would have him back in a flash.

Is there interest in Bernard?

Believable1 Unbelievable16

{Ed002's Note - Shakhtar Donetsk originally baulked at Atletico Mineiro's valuation of Bernard but managed to negotiate a deal for him to join last summer. Chelsea (who had maintained a long term interest), Manchester City, Porto and Roma had been keeping a close eye on his progress, but all seemed reluctant to make any move, certainly at the asking price. He was also one of the South American players that Liverpool were scouting earlier in 2012, but that was pre-Rodgers. Spurs or Arsenal both put offers on the table that were seen to be far too low last summer, but the player has not settled in the Ukraine and is angling for a move, and has mentioned the previous interest of Spurs, Arsenal and Porto. Whether any wish to pursue their previous interest remains to be seen.}

Hi eds, media is suggesting Richards is on his way to Liverpool with Sagna going to City. Are Arsenal interested in the Englishman?
Cheers

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of interest from Arsenal or Liverpool in Micah Richards right now. Given Richards likely price, wages and history of injury problems, I am rather surprised that there is interest still from West Ham, Milan, Everton, Galatasaray and Newcastle.}

24 May 2014 16:51:31
See ed has hit the nail on the head for me. Why would any team especially us be interested in Richards with high wages and injury history

Agree3 Disagree0

Heard somebody claim on here the other day that he would be a bargain. I almost had a heart attack.

Ed's, what do you think the chances of signing Griezmann are? Will the deal have anything to do with letting sociodad keep Vela? Also, have arsenal sent a 35m bid for fabregas? Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - (a) Whilst Griezmann has said on several occasions that he has no plans to leave Spain anytime soon, the financial problems being faced by Real Sociedad may still see him leave the club in the summer. He has had a good season which have led to enquiries being made by Juventus, Arsenal and Chelsea; and Manchester United and PSG having the player watched on more than one occasion. (b) Arsenal cannot force Vela to move. (c) No they haven't.}

Just passing on a couple rumours outbof spain. Barca fans still expect sanchez to move on, but between enrique not having had a chance to get to know the squad yet, and the world cup, he will only leave late in the window if at all. Accordingly I have been told by a friend that arsenal are interested partially because they believe other clubs will have already begun looking at other options.
Also while barca fans seem to think cesc is not up to it, he should be staying for another season. Seems like obvious news but all I got right now!
