Summer Transfer Speculation and Shit

[Cripps_orig]

No chance

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Poldi when he returns?

[Niall_Quinn]

Doesn't @GeoffCunt know any of the players' names? Top, top, quality German? What a know nothing fuck, this'll be about the 500th time he's been wrong about everything this window. He should shut his hole now because it was fun when there was still a hope we could sign someone. Now it's just rubbing the shit in.

[Marc Overmars]

Ozil. :bow:

[JonasTC]

If @Geoff has the same definition as wenger on top quality, get ready for Miroslav Klose or Jens Lehmann

[Globalgunner]

If @Geoff has the same definition as wenger on top quality, get ready for Miroslav Klose or Jens Lehmann

TBF, Jens looked in really good shape last time I saw him on tv. Maybe he's been training with the squad, plus he would be free. We all know what that adds up to.

[Cripps_orig]

I'd take Klose here.

[hobson's choice]

Please Arsene get some players, the team is working well, and playing the asses off, now get them some quality teammates

Better than the money just sitting there ! . What the board need to see is that spending money on players like Ozil will make us play better (I hope) , and in turn make us more promising for investment deals from abroad, which is what they really care about.

Ozil, Abel Hernández and Di  Maria have emerged as Arsenal's main targets (Telegraph)

Anyone who scores 4 goals v the world powerhouse of football, Tahiti, at Confed Cup is ok by me :good:

Only scored 1 from 6 starts and 8 sub appearances in Serie A last season though. Maybe little bit injury prone? Perfect signing

[Cripps_orig]

Real Madrid forward Kaka, 31, will sign for former club AC Milan on loan, while Arsenal and Manchester United will battle it out for the signature of playmaker Mesut Ozil, 24, as the Spanish giants try to recoup some of the money they spent on Bale.
Full story: TalkSport

Arsenal will complete the Ozil signing either as a permanent or loan deal, and are also chasing his Real Madrid team-mate, 25-year-old winger Angel di Maria, as well as Schalke midfielder Julian Draxler, 19, and Chelsea's out-of-favour striker Demba Ba, 28.
Full story: Daily Mirror

Arsene Wenger is preparing an £80m spending spree in the final hours of the transfer window, with Arsenal ready to launch bids for Ozil, Di Maria, 25, and 23-year-old Palermo striker Abel Hernandez.
Full story: Daily Telegraph

Arsenal forward Olivier Giroud says the club need to bring in at least another attacker before the transfer window closes on Monday. The Frenchman, 26, believes Luis Suarez, 26, would have been a great addition.
Full story: Telefoot (in French)


Ozil news doesn't sound promising.

He's a good talent, definitely no nowhere near polished, and yes those stats are bad. But in his defense, Palermo have been dogshit for the past two years. Sold off all their best creative players, he's definitely a gamble, but for the right price, I wouldn't mind him at all.

The kid has talent, just moved too Europe too young, and went to the wrong club. Wenger will be a good coach for him.

Can't believe utd would let go of kagawa and to be honest I don't see too many players going there now SAF has retired...no more fergie time or free penalties or generally favorable decisions! They were always playing with 12 players! Not anymore. I can see us going in for michu and Williams, tho still reckon we should go for benteke! What's happened to our CB signing???? Seriously? Begovic too?? Still not convinced szezcney quite ready and has no competition!!

We've been asked how much money Southampton will make from the Gareth Bale transfer.

The answer is absolutely nothing.

Saints did have a 25% sell-on clause in the deal to sell Bale to Tottenham, but is was renegotiated when the south-coast club were in deep financial trouble.

As part of the new deal, Saints got Spurs goalkeeper Tommy Forecast.

Daniel Levy is some sort of arch-negotiator.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Wouldn't mind Ba on a season long loan or a 1/2 year deal primarily because we desperately need cover and he's someone that can come in and do a reasonable job. We've fucked around in our striker pursuit this summer and this sort of deal is the best we can hope for at this stage.

That said, knowing the club he'll be offered a 5 year deal on 150K wages and he'll get permanently crocked in the first season.

Well, apart from Ba, yes.

Fair enough, he's not complete tripe. But he's thrived at smaller clubs who play to his strengths. He has never shown an ability to be an effective link player. Giroud's not perfect, but linking the midfield and attack is one of his best attributes and Ba's worst.

Porto's Colombian striker Jackson Martinez is very close to agreeing a new contract but it's not signed yet...meaning any club meeting his existing €40m (£34m) buyout clause could potentially prise him away at the last minute."

Or alternatively, Jason Roberts.

Wenger tried to sign Ozil before he joined Real Madrid. Now he's finally got his man. Long term admiration of 'super, super quality' player.

Ozil agreed, Viviano agreed. Arsenal still in the market for more... #afc
7:04 PM
John Cross
Ozil had been reluctant to come to Arsenal. They've persuaded him. It's all on. Imagine Ozil central, Cazorla left. Wow. #afc
7:04 PM
John Cross
Personal terms also agreed with Mesut Ozil. Medical in Germany last hurdle to be overcome. Permanent deal, everything agreed. #afc

READY FOR SPUNK EVERYWHERE.

Funny how his so called knee injury hasn't been a problem at any of his other clubs.

thats like how nobody has been shot playing russian roulette by the time they hand you the gun

BORINI TO SUNDERLAND
Italy football writer James Horncastle: "No one will be more pleased to see Liverpool striker Fabio Borini nearing a loan move to Sunderland than Italy coach Cesare Prandelli. It's hard to understate how highly regarded the 22-year-old is back home.

"A member of the Azzurri's Euro 2012 squad after scoring nine goals in his only season at Roma, Borini's first one at Liverpool under Brendan Rodgers, his former mentor during his time at Chelsea's academy, was desperately unlucky. Injuries meant he never really got to show his worth.

"Should Borini get a run of games under his compatriot Paolo Di Canio at the Stadium of Light, then he will score goals. He has an instinct for them, which in the past has led to comparisons with Pippo Inzaghi."

He's shit

[Master Splinter]

Sign a top, top, top, top, top, top, quality striker Wenget, you WUM.

Giroud will probably come back maimed after the international break.

[Master Splinter]

Rossi has just come back from injury for Fiorentina.

Do it, Wenfer.

Plus, Maccy would be extremely happy.

Rossi. :cloud9:

We should go for Javier Hernandez.

With RVC their main man, Wazza not leaving and Welbeck somehow preferred, he won't get much game time

[Marc Overmars]

Not bothered about Ba, Hernandez or any other striker bought in for cover.

I'd rather we went all in for Di Maria.

[Boss]

Exactly right, Di Maria would be a great addition.

Walcott has double the goals (14 to 7) and 4 more assists (10 to 6) in 2 more league starts than Di Maria last season.

We need players that can score, not create. Ozil, Cazorla, Wilshere, Ramsey and Rosicky are more than enough to supply our frontline with chances on a plate.

Sky says Ozil has to be at an advertising shoot at 2pm German time, so I guess the medical must be done by now.

Ozil is having the world's longest medical
the eyesight test is taking far longer than expected.

No wonder Utd are pissed off. Apparently Howard Webb's contract runs out tonight, and we're in for him.

[Penguin]

the eyesight test is taking far longer than expected.

The FA have ruled that Ozil's eyes are too far apart and gives him an unfair advantage in vision to normal human beings. He can't play in the PL until he has corrective surgery.

Sky saying Bendtner was in and out of Palace very quickly. Probably made some ridiculous demand like wanting £52K a week - who would be stupid enough to pay him that?

He's good but I wouldn't have thought good enough for the level Man Utd intend to reach. Having said that, he is of course little bit technically gifted. I would place Muniain ahead of him but then Muniain had a shocker of a season last season I suppose.

I think he's a great buy personally. They're overpaying for him (the current market has gone crazy) but he's much better than the midfielders they have atm and would fill the void left by Scholes. They've been carrying the Fletchers and Andersons for too long.

He's an improvement, no doubt about that but they barely have a midfield worthy of the name anyway!
