Transfer targets in January

[Marc Overmars]

The Dortmund pub teamer is probably better than Arshavin anyway.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Saha to Spuds apparently.

'Arry can't help himself. :haha:

Chief football writer Phil McNulty on Twitter: "Louis Saha from Everton to Spurs now looking a done deal. Really intriguing move that."

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Legendary BBC Sport commentator John Motson: "I think Jelavic might be the biggest signing we see today if it comes off. Everton have been restricted by finances but, when they sold Billy (Bilyaletdinov), it gave David Moyes a bit of flexibility for the first time in a long while. This is a position that Everton have struggled with. They haven't been lucky with strikers. This could be a very telling transfer." UK web users can watch John's full interview at the top of this page.


Could be right tbh.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

What time is Jim White coming in

We may be after Marco Marin according to talk sport.

[Marc Overmars]

What time is Jim White coming in

We may be after Marco Marin according to talk sport.

Course we are...We're after no one. Well, no one of note anyway.

The only business I'm hoping for is for this Arshavin move to go through.

[Syn]

The only business I'm hoping for is for this Arshavin move to go through.

Agreed. Would love it if someone took him off our hands. Also might mean that Ryo will get more chances. It doesn't matter that he might not be very good, but it's hard for anyone to be as bad as Arshavin is right now. Oxlade starting ahead of him and feeling isolated from the fans was probably the tipping point.

[Marc Overmars]

Ryo could be off to Bolton on loan, could be a good move for him as it was for Jack a couple years ago.

Blood and thunder, bulldog spirit etc He has a lot to learn.

[Syn]

Was moving back from Bolton a good move for Jack, though? Look at him now. I will be devastated if doesn't reach his potential. Family member dying devastation. He was one of the best in the league already last season. What a waste of talent. He could've been one of the all time greats. He was that good. And now look at him. The new Tomas Rosicky. Fucking Arsenal injuries.

[Marc Overmars]

The Russian transfer window doesn't close for another 3 weeks, so the Arshavin deal won't necessarily be done today.

[Dennis Bendtner]

A 19-year old midfielder from Dortmund you say?

We're signing Gotze!?!

But surely our inability to conduct business outside our window does? Or do we only play by the buying teams' window?

Better than not sigining anyone at all.

I had an Accepteda 2.5 once. Shit it was. Broke down constantly.

[Syn]

QPR bid mill for zamora

Seems like two decent strikers are on the move - Saha and Zamora. Although having checked, Saha has 1 goal in 18 league games and Zamora is very hit-and-miss (more miss) so I guess they're not really strikers that we should be looking at. Although at least they'd shoot. Very surprised about the Saha move (if it goes through). Ok, despite the poor season, we know he can finish but he's surely not top 4 quality.

[Marc Overmars]

18:06 GMT I've been inundated with Twitter messages from Arsenal supporters wanting their club to sign Lille trickster Eden Hazard, well, here's the reasoning behind the lack of transfer activity from their chief executive Ivan Gazidis.

“[Our model] does mean we can't afford to compete with oil money, and we can't afford to compete with super-wealthy individuals from Russia,” Gazidis told Fox.

“But I think the more important thing about our model is that it's sustainable.

“If we've learned anything from the world's economic crisis, it has to be that football clubs need to have responsibility - not just for today, but for their own futures - and our business model means that we can continue to do what we're doing forever.

“Our focus is always on young players, we've got a fantastic development system and still there are young players coming through consistently from our youth ranks and that'll continue to be the way Arsenal do things.”

rsène Wenger believes new signing Thomas Eisfeld has all the attributes to be a success at Arsenal.

Eisfeld completed his move from Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday, signing a long-term contract at Emirates Stadium.

The young German has trained with his new team-mates and Wenger is confident he has the potential to be a hit in north London.

“He is a young prospect with good footballing talent,” the Frenchman told Arsenal Player.

“He has the good ingredients that could allow him to integrate into the quality of our team - the basics are technique, good movement and skill. We believe that he has a chance to develop well here.

“How much first-team football he has depends on him. Basically we planned to get him at the end of the season but we got him a bit earlier because he was at the end of his contract. We will use this period for adaptation.”


:doh:

[Master Splinter]

Grant Holt to Glasgow Rangers apparently.

MS. :rose:

True, even though he will be sold in a few years to Barca lol

He becomes the latest in a series of players to make the switch from Borussia Dortmund to north London, following in the footsteps of Tomas Rosicky and Jens Lehmann.

This soundbite could replace fourth place as a crowning achievement.

[Marc Overmars]

You mean released to wonder the depths of footballing ladder like so many others before him.

Seriously though, good luck to him anyway. It's not his fault the signing will be greeted like a joke.

At least he has one thing going for him;

Germans. :bow:

[Ollie the Optimist]

:doh:

actually think wenger has got this one right, lets face it, we wont win the league, so using the time to get a player settled and ready for next year is probs a good use of it. get this guy firing, ox firing, with jenkinson, yennaris etc all getting games then hopefully we have a much more balanced squad ready to step in whenever we need them next year. still would like a bigger signing but this guy is meant to be very good and is highly rated according to a lot of people, apparently dortmund fans are gutted as he was highly rated.

[Dennis Bendtner]

Yeah. I genuinely would like our team to become more German. Positive strides. Goatse and Podolski please.

[Syn]

This is just a random punt. Might turn out well, might turn out to be a Bischoff. This isn't a measured signing for the future like Oxlade - you can spot them from a mile off...mainly because we pay decent money. All I know of this guy is from today - he had a very bad injury which set him back last year and he hasn't played a senior game for Dortmund.

To be fair to him, it's much more difficult getting into the Dortmund midfield as an ACM these days than it is getting into an Arsenal one.

The only way we will know if hes a good signing is how much he features in the up and coming months, after losing cesc and samir in the summer, we defo need a CAM so lets hope his injury hasnt set him back too much

He has a very German face, though. Can only serve him well. He's probably Whatever.

Depends what the clubs aim is, if they are happy to settle for 5th, then its fine, we don't need major signings. if they want top 4 then they do. IMO they have wriiten off the season and in the summer will do business dependant on where we finish.

He's 19, hasn't played any games for his club. Conclusion, he's no Wilshere. I'm failing miserably to get euphoric about this particular signing.

I didn't think it were possible but we've actually weakened ourselves on transfer deadline day. We've lost a 19 year old who showed talent and had first-team experience at Feyernord and gained another 19 year old whose only experience is at the U19 level because he had a career-threatening injury.

I think Miyaichi might well have been on the verge of getting ahead of Arshavin in the pecking order - which means were only a Walcott injury away from doubling our shirt sales in Japan.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Just kill him then. Surely no medical required if he's dead? Get the bloke who did David Kelly to to the post mortem and we're in the clear.

He should be back at the end of the week, having done nothing so should really be well rested.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

So we bought some injury prone 19 year old Pub Teamer that hasnt played a game for Dortmund

Wtf?

How is Wenger still in a job?

Add that to Gazidis's laughable comments and this club is rotten to the core.

Yep the lying scumbag said he would not sign anyone and did should be saked for lying tbh

[Olivier's xmas twist]

:lol: It really is embarrassing, like you said how does he stay in a job, people thought we were looking at Goetze when we were actually just waiting to watch the schoolkids play so that we could line up our next signing!

No one ever did, not sure where you got that from.

[hymppi]

he's 5'10 short and injury-prone. AW type of a bargain written all over this one.
oh dear.

isnt goetze injured and out until march? can see why we stopped looking at him. as much as i would love a proper signing, lets give this kid a chance, who knows he could be brilliant for us. wasnt it just last week we were accusing wenger of losing it cos he took off a 18 year old :lol:

If he's as good as some of the kids we've had he'll most likely play every week, if he's any good though he'll have to do with the bench and reserve games.

We paid £400K for a 19 year old. I think it's safe enough to guess what type of player we're getting.

[Cripps_orig]

19 isnt that young anymore in football terms

Especially at Dortmund where they give kids a chance to play. The fact this nobody has never played for a team that gives youngsters chances pretty much tells you how shite he is

Hope we sell him before the end of the window

Wow!!

This is excellent news.

Can't wait to see him play! What number is he taking? Finally the signing we've been waiting for!!!

I may have done a little sex wee when I saw the announcement.

I'm thinking he's a greedy bastard to be honest. He could get a chance at Dortmund if he's good enough. Not as if they don't develop young players as well. Difference with us, we pay a lot more.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Arsenal (http://www.goal.com/en-gb/teams/england/94/arsenal) have rejected an approach from Fulham (http://www.goal.com/en-gb/teams/england/101/fulham) to sign striker Park Chu-Young (http://www.goal.com/en-gb/people/south-korea/23294/chu-young-park) on loan until the summer, Goal.com can disclose.

Is it really fun though? Or insane jealousy and poorly concealed rage masquerading as fun? Are we all just sad bastards for being fooled twice every year even when Wenger tells us there will be no value provided to the fans and the board is keeping all the money?

Bassong out (to Wolves) and Nelsen in? Why would the Spuds bother? Must be for 'Arry's bonuses again I guess.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

236: More from White Hart Lane, and this concerns Blackburn too. Louis Saha's move to Tottenham will be a loan until the end of the season, with the option of another season on a permanent basis after that, depending on the 33-year-old's fitness. And Sebastien Bassong's move to Wolves depends on whether Spurs can bring in 34-year-old Ryan Nelsen on a free transfer from Blackburn. I'm not sure I understand that last bit - Nelsen is a decent defender but he has a whole load of injury problems.

Wtf

He was 'experienced' at Everton but hasn't really done much. And of course, he is still injury prone, much like Nelsen.
