Arsenal bought Rosicky off Dortmund because they had financial difficulties and bought him for a measly 6m.
Arsenal bought Santos because Fenerbache had financial difficulties (match-fixing) and we bought Santos for a measly 6m.

Lyon are apparently in some financial situation, Gourcuff/Bastos/Lopez/Cissokho anyone?

Colney Bandit

Ur on to summit

There are alot of teams in financial difficulty - congratulations for choosing 1 of those teams and listing some of their players. None of them will be signed.

Why are there so many many tossers like the second commenter on these sites. Why are you even on here if all you're going to do is sh!t all over a perfectly sensible rumour?

Colney good work mate - optimism with the sense to back it up. Yes there are plenty of clubs with financial difficulties but that is as generic as being 'unable to spend 15m on 1 player' - the difference is all the clubs we bought from needed money and we cornered them. There certainly is interest from us if what I've read this week is anything to go by, and there's a statement from the Cologne chairman/manager (whichever) addressing the issue so it is definitely live.

He's a quality player, I'd love to see him at Arsenal, especially as I support Germany and have always thought he is quality. Some people aren't that into him, the thinking is that maybe he 'over-achieves' with Germany, but with that in mind Arsenal would be great for him, he would do a lot better than expected probably as we always seem to get that from these 'average' players. Or in other words, we may be able to supply him better than Cologne can? Either way, I am going to be keeping tabs on this rumour, he is perfect - young enough, experienced enough, top quality, not a rip-off, nearing his contract end, deserving of playing on a bigger world stage than Cologne do, needs to give his international career a shot in the arm, etc etc.

Do NOT be surprised if he comes to Arsenal. Fingers crossed.

Just realised I've been going on for ages about Podolski, sorry mate, think I meant to write that elsewhere haha.

Cologne have come out and said they are trying to tie podolski down to a new contract.

Likewise, WE have come out and said we are trying to tie down theo walcott to a contract.

On your logic, there is a strong chance theo could goto juventus. Chances?

On my logic, there is as much chance of podolski joining arsenal, as there is walcott joining juventus. OOOOF thats another transfer dreamer put into a reality check.

Haha that is the most unsound logic ever. AT the end of the day Juve can't offer Theo anything he hasn't already got, in the best league there is. Podolski has nothing going for him at Cologne. He doesn't pay in champs league, he's on the bench for Germany now, etc, you cannot apply such stupid egotistical logic using Walcott to Juve as an example.

On neutral logic, there's every chance Walcott could join Juve and so every chance Pod could join us.

Id use a different example as u know english people rarely leave england apart from beckham, owen, vassel who were old or dint play well wen they went abroad

talksport:arsenal close to agreeing deal with real madrid for esteban granero

Talksport more like Talks***.

I think if we were close to agreeing a deal then I would be all over SSN and BBC.

edd any intrest from arsenal in Marco Reus he would be more realistic than hazard and goetze {Ed001's Note - there is a lot of interest in Marco Reus, but it seems likely he will be joining Bayern, if anyone, in the summer.}

The only players joining Arsenal in January will be rejects from other clubs. The boards best policy would be to decide what positions they need to strengthen and wait to see what unfold at the big 5 clubs, and then pick up the players likely to surplus to requirements.

Please stop believing this mess can be reversed with the signing of Tevez, Hazard and Messi. None of the world class footballers will join Arsenal after the exodus of the stars. Expect RVP to leave at the end of the season, and get ready for your new true London derby with Fulham and QPR. Chelsea and Spurs are now miles ahead of Arsenal but you will cling onto your last win. Even QPR beat Chelsea the game before so don't use that win as any measure.

It is time Arsenal faced the future. This is your last Champions League season, you will lose Robin Van Persie, and your legitimate transfer targets will be Top 5 rejects.

With all this in mind why not ask Man Utd for Ferdinand and Owen, beg Spurs for Jenas & Bentley and try to secure Kalou and Drogba.

All six will be needed after RVP leaves and would all slot in ahead of the band of merry men currently on show.

Get Real - 15 years of deep sleep approaching.

^^^^ We Won't Even Pay Attention To That

Clearly a spud made the comment above so no need to take notice
anyways on the actual post he looks quite good but personally I would rather see christian erksen of ajax he is amazing and will be available for around 20m

Yeah Bergkamp Recommend Him
