OK so some people are now saying the deal isn't happening, whereas others are saying Higuain's medical was today, or that last night we smashed our record, or they're even talking about the deal in the past tense as though Higuain has signed.

But I'm not even writing this post about that. I've just read some story saying we've offered £17m+Ramsey for Fellaini.

Now THAT is a rumour I don't know what to make of!

Wenger has always had a soft spot for Ramsey. That's why he always plays him (even when he's out of form). So I don't think he'd get rid of him like that

Great rumour but not true methinks. Ramsey must be at least 10m, which would bust right through the minimum release clause, and on top of that we can't afford to give up a British squad player. strangely enough though, whilst I think Rambo is much maligned, I'd take that!

I'd be disappointed to see Ramsey go as part of that deal, and I'm ready for the abuse for liking Ramsey lol

C'mon on MG, it's clearly nonsense, surely you would rather keep Ramsey and the money over Fellaini.

Ramsey signed a five year deal a few months ago. Why would they offer him a long term contract only to part ex him for the Afro warrior?

Rumour it maybe. Truthful it is not.

I would like this to be the case, but it seems unlikely.

Why would anyone like to lose ramsey? He's very talented and improving greatly. Worth a lot more than a bit part in an exchange


8.) 05 Jul 2013
Remember AW spoke of his excitement about the core of British players he presently has? Then this Fellaini, if he is that good, wouldn't Moyes have taken him along? Moyes is probably having a good laugh about this interest of ours!

Ramsey on a short or season long loan I hope, No way they would sell a worker like Ramsey.

Med on monday, announced tuesday. watch this space.

Ramsey really needs to be moved on, gives the ball away too much for a mid.


13.) 06 Jul 2013
If you haven't watched Ramsey recently I suggest you do so

he was as important to our streak to make 4th as Kos/Mert. He and Arteta are a very good partnership. Runs all day, tackles well, and actually did NOT give the ball away when paired with Mikel.

That Fellaini swap deal with Ramsey is rubbish, yes Arsenal interested and will go back for him shortly once Higuain and Cesc deals are done.


15.) 06 Jul 2013
Not going to happen Ramsey was part of the british contingent that signed improved long term deals last season, although I do believe this is the season where Ramsey has to show he is a class first team player


16.) 06 Jul 2013
I'd hate this to be true because he really developed last season and towards the end he became a key part of the team, I really do not know what to make of all these rumours regarding fellaini because if people were saying that we were going to trigger his buy out clause surely we'd just do it and not wait for another club to swoop in, and as we all know as arsenal fans a deal is never done until it is done with arsenal


17.) 06 Jul 2013
The reason Moyes has not tried to sign Fellaini is his lack of pace. He wouldn't fit into Uniteds style of play. However he would slot into Arsenals style easily. He's technically gifted and would be a great signing for Arsenal.


18.) 06 Jul 2013
Not going to happen. Offering £17 million plus Clumsey would effectively be offering £17 million plus a traffic cone. No wait, the traffic cone has a better first touch. As someone above pointed out, he's one of those players that AW is stubbornly and bizarrely loyal to, even when they've proved they're not good enough. Oh and Everton wouldn't want him either.


19.) 07 Jul 2013
Everton wouldn't want him? did you only watch the first, what 10 games max? he played?

his form and ability almost fully blossomed in the last half of the season.
