I sense a bit of humour and sarcasm in this post but has the Mata transfer ended?

No, the Malaga mention was originally to do with Cazorla, not Mata.
Obviously, striker needed. Doesn't really matter who - just anyone who can trap a ball and shoot at goal.
Is it just me or isn't it starting to look like sell to buy...
No matter how good he is at shooting, he“ll be told no to.
In fact, the players should secretly decide that one of them always stays into the opposite goal, so others can actually shoot at goal, with the excuse that they“re passing the ball to the guy into it. That is the only way Wenger will allow his players to shoot at goal, until he notices the plot, of course.
:sleep:
The waiting period is the time during which we're waiting for Barca to cough up before we go out and buy.
Anybody know the latest on Mata?
Daily Mirror and a few other rags reckon we've agreed a 17million deal with Valencia, Balague claims we've signed him too.
Some on twitter have claimed that he may intend to stay with Valencia - signing a new contract with them.
@GuillemBalague: Mata's clause to sign player cheaper (20-23m euros) finished yesterday. Clubs agreed fee, player happy to go but money didnt arrive...
@GuillemBalague: Spurs tried to get him but he only wanted to go to Arsenal or Barcelona. Without Cesc money, Arsenal didnt want 2 pay.Now he costs 60m euros
So why would we need Cesc money if Wenger is sitting on top of a mountain of cash...
Balague :lol:
Twitter :lol:14 year old kids on their holidays :lol:
Sid lowe and Graham hunter pretty much confirmed that we've more or less blown it.
If it is true and we have fucked up the Mata transfer then Wenger should just fuck off now. Worst manager I've ever seen.
:haha:
It can“t be true. Unless Gervinho and Jenknson actually cost thoose full 40M Wenger always has available to spend.
The thing about "saving" the money for a couple of defenders sounds reasonable though, but when is that going to happen either?
Again, this is all too stupid tobe true, must be only made up rumours.
If this is true then this must be the final straw for wenger
That Balague Just came on Talksport and said its more lilkly Mata will stay in spain and get a better contract now and how him and club were waiting for us and we did not come.
Now we'd have to pay 30 million to get him instead of 23 Mill.
But who knows tommrow it could change again.
It seems liek we missed out on him if we were ever interested in the 1st place
If the source of Mata's deal collapsing is the La Liga expert Guilleme Balague I wouldn't be pay too much attention to it.
And you people have to be seriously deluded to believe that if we had agreed terms with him, we'd let his release clause run out and increase to a bigger fee- when fact shows that we are the most stingiest club in history.
I won't beleive anything until Wenger or arsenal.com confirms it tbf
If wenger fucks up this Mata deal... fucking hell
Well, sure, but if, as reported, the deal fell through because payment wasn't made in time, you can't really blame the guy who isn't in charge of the cheque book.
Well, you can, but it wouldn't make much sense.
