Just wondering if anyone had any info on sakho at PSG. I know their club are building for the future and have plenty of money/ambition, but MIGHT he move this jan/summer? He's an obvious target for a lot of clubs, but once again, he would be ideal for us.

ed, any idea which full backs arsenal have a chance of getting on loan, or who we are in for? {Ed002's Note - Perhaps Taiwo or Vargas are the most likely Cissokho is also available.}

Believable14 Unbelievable3

Is anyone sure exactly which Vargas is more closely linked and therefore keeps popping up on these pages?

Juan Manuel Vargas Risco - Peruvian Left Winger playing for Fiorentina

or

Eduardo Jesús Vargas Rojas - Chilean Right Winger playing for Universidad de Chile

I'm assuming Juan Manuel as he can play left back as well!

I can't see either coming in as Wenger is only looking at loan deals. The board won't commit any long term spending until we have secured champions league football for next season ... that includes summer signings.

CrossRoss (pissing on peoples parades for another transfer window ... or two!) {Ed002's Note - Eduado Vargas has moved to Napoli. It is J-M Vargas.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Napoli's squad is stronger than ours, and they have signed the better of the 2 vargas players.

Arsene Wenger has just revealed that Thomas Vermaelen is out for "two or three weeks" with the injury he sustained against QPR. Wenger also confirmed he's trying to sign a defender but only on loan, and Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel Frimpong has sealed his loan switch to Wolves for the rest of the season.

It appears clubs are now falling over themselves to land Frimmy on a loan deal, with Wolves, Villa and now Norwich reportedly looking to loan him this Jan.

Henry is a done deal

Believable43 Unbelievable1

Sure is. 5 live just put it to Wenger. He did not deny it.

Agree0 Disagree0

THE RETURN OF THE KING!

I'm not at all expecting him to be the Henry of his first stint, but he doesn't have to be. Just hold the fort down, that's all. :)

HNY to all my fellow gooners!

Agree0 Disagree0

It will actually be dependant on papers being signed as Red Bulls want him bk 1 wk earlier than we want to let him go.

It's been reported that Arsene Wenger is lining up a surprise swap deal by offering out-of-favour striker Marouanne Chamakh for FC Cologne forward Lukas Podolski.

Wenger would like to offload the Moroccan in a player plus cash deal for Podolski, although it's thought that Cologne would be reluctant to get involved in such a deal.

Please, please please let it be true! Chamakh is dribble.
If we sell players then we will buy players so we will have to wait and see who goes?
Beniyoun is only on loan, frimpong is going wolves on loan, arshavin will defo be sold jan or in summer along with squid, rosicky, almunia and chamakh so it's a waiting game but I pray Wenger gets the outs and ins done ASAP.

Agree0 Disagree0

Sorry forgot to mention we also have to sell denilson and bendtner so we should have quite a big war chest to spend on players in summer as I do not see us spending a lot in jan.

Agree0 Disagree0

Cancel the loan deal for bendtner and swap him for lucas plus 12mil...
danccm

Agree0 Disagree0

Sounds great but is there any reliable source?

Oleg Maputo

Agree0 Disagree0

With Chamakh going to the ANC, and being in dreadful form, I doubt the Germans would touch him with a bargepole!

Agree0 Disagree0

Chamakh may have a cracking ACN though, we'll have to wait and see..

Ed do you have any news on jese rodriguez of madrid. He is a fantastic youngster very much in the mould of Ronaldo and about a month or two ago many believed we had an agreement in place whats the latest?
kb {Ed001's Note - last I heard he was given a debut to keep him at Madrid.}

Believable3 Unbelievable4

Mourinho says he is keen to keep him at madrid and thats why he gave him his first game, so i dont see a move away from madrid coming soon

Believable5 Unbelievable41

Ahhhhh I doubt it buddy, he is never good enough for the premiership!

CS {Ed002's Note - It is rubbish, don't worry. Freddy Adu flew in to Madrid earlier in teh week and started a two week trial with Rayo Vallecano.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Nice 1 fella :) Clint Dempsey I could stomach. Not Adu!

You could say it was much Adu about nothing...

CS

Agree0 Disagree0
