What's the likelyhood of us going for di Maria now that RM has James Rodriguez? Is there any interest from Wenger?
{Ed002's Note - Not too likely.}

Don't let this post go through of this isn't the first but Arsenal.com has announced the signing of Alexis Sanchez
Great time to be a gooner!

Eds, random question. Dempsey was a target a while back and would have surely helped us offensively then, but we let him go to spurs. I also read that we had a chance to sign Bradley in the winter but got Kalstrom instead. Being an American, I'm just curious, with that in mind, is there a bias against USA players at Arsenal?
{Ed025's Note - no goose, they are both good players but not exactly world beaters mate..
1.) Even so, surely Bradley would have been a better option than Kalstrom. And if I recall, we were looking at Dempsey in the same window when we got park chu yung.
2.) Bradley was probably the worst player in the American team this WC IMO. Just saying.
3.) I'd take Howard that would be about it.

What's the situation with Khedira? He'd be a great DMF. Technical, strong, ball winner. Any interest in him?

Everyone is talking about how Chelsea is good at selling all of they're so-so players for big money (i.e. Schurrle to Wolfsburg, Lukaku to Everton) and how that's great business, but no one ever mentions how we got Juventus to take Bendtner FOR A WHOLE SEASON on loan. What's the real feat here? I think we all know.
1.) Fernando Torres, £50m.
2.) Goose, NB52 was the best player in the world apparently.
The chelsea thing is about recent transfers BTW, you have to hand it to them they have the best squad in the EPL and have made money as well. But don't worry i'm not crossing over to the blue side, I still can't stand Maureen.

David Luiz £50m.
Amazing.
4.) Yeah, Chelsea supporters must be loving life right now, fair play to them you have to give the club some credit; although it's extremely hard as I'm not a Mourinho fan either, nor am I a fan of Abramovich
{Ed002's Note - Expect Mr Abramovich to "defriend" you on Facebook now.}
5.) Touche Dags :)
Ed, that happened a long time ago - it's a long standing rivalry that started over an argument about who had the better yacht.
6.) I have no idea how chelsea works on their transfers but this logic of finding a gem in their buy young, loan and sell for high price can't go on forever. its working well and its helping them but like all business ideas, you need to keep changing the model.
besides just my take. having bought lukaku for 18 mill and selling him for 28 or schurrle for 18 and selling for 24 or mata for 22 and selling for 37 or luiz for 25 and selling for 37 its not exactly 100% profit. chelsea are as much to blame for inflated prices as much as Manchester United and real madrid are for starting the trend of insane prices.
besides no one talks about how we got cesc, or rvp or adebayor or anelka and counteless others for peanuts and made millions on them, and its derived as arsenal are a selling club, we buy two superstars and we are making a mistake overspending, while chelsea is shrewd.
while I like how chelsea keep evolving their squad, replacing parts when needed and selling at the opportune time, I also like our consistency and keeping core players and building a legacy on that. I would not want ramsey to be sold because he had one good season and Manchester United wanted him for 30 mill. no I want the player. I don't want some new kid for the sake of it.
i would like to see if mourinho can last more than 3-4 seasons without going bonkers and mutually agree to leave as PSG and paris have a lovely tour of the catacombs.
{Ed025's Note - a good read that lakes..
7.) If your top of the pile and making money on transfers while winning the premier league your a genius who deserves great credit for it.
Mourinho is close to achieving what Arsene used to be the Master at but the biggest difference is Arsene won great respect and administration for not only doing it but doing it with dignity, mourinho might match the achievement but never the respect from outside the boot sale stadium.

My point is, getting Juventus to take Bendtner on loan for a season is the greatest piece of business the universe has ever seen
9.) Totally agree with Lakerville

Goose I did get your point mate and it was, hands down, deal of the Century! ;-)

He's not the kind if player you pass up just because he's injured. Injuries heal.

They also just paid for someone that they don't need. They have Rooney and RVP, falcao is adding anything anything to their attack that they don't already have
I already have an irrational belief that we are signing Reus. Stop teasing me
Good lord I hope not. He was the worst player on the pitch against Germany. And that's saying something.
Even so, surely Bradley would have been a better option than Kalstrom. And if I recall, we were looking at Dempsey in the same window when we got park chu yung.
ZLATAN! He's putting his first name on the back of his shirt
