So thats settled any dispute there.
Not saying were not, saying we could have this week. Other clubs seem to do multiple deals we seem to put our eggs in one basket. And when it goes pear shaped we don't know what to do.Quote:

Not sure if serious?Quote:

Is it me, or is there a slight discrepancy in this??

Jacks back :bow:
He looks ill. Podolski's done that thing of getting close to him, being a good friend, and has started to slowly poison him in order to get the number 10 shirt.
Tbf, I look like that most mornings.
Oh yeah.
I'm a crackhead alchy. That's why.
Jack :rose:
Podolski is quality
Anyone whos seen him the last few years and not just at Euro 2012 would know that.
He can rightly be put up there as genuine quality in our squad along with Theo and Verm maybe Merts and prob Cazorla as well
The rest? :lol:
Some reports are that the loan fee is £5m (which would make sense given that pool would offer more to get him as he preferred a move to us) and that they may be paying 100% of his wages to clinch he deal.
Which would work out at around the £9m mark for a seasons loan.
Fuck that.
So to clarify
We want Sahin
Sahin wants to join us
Sahin meets Wenger
Sahin joins Liverpool
Is that about it?
Think it's more to do with our penny pinching tbh. We're like those hard nosed employers who will look to squeeze labour costs to their bare minimum. If our owners owned a clothes factor in the developing world, there's no doubt they'd employ sweatshop labour.Quote:

It probably went something like this
Wenger "Welcome to Arsenal"
Sahin "its a wonderful place, a brilliant stadium, a great pitch. I cant wait to play here on loan and then hopefully prove to you i am good enough for a permanent transfer"
Wenger "We all wish that of course. We are 2% away from domination. I believe you can be that 2%"
Sahin "so lets get down to business, how much will i get in wages while im here?"
Wenger "What?!!!!! You are on loan. We dont pay you. Bye"
Sahin joins Liverpool
Yes that's right.Quote:

Everyone who doesn't want to
1) play for us
2) sign extensions to their contracts
3) are money grabbing hoes
can
1) feck
2) right
3) off
Does that out a line under things.........?
Well we're approaching the end of the transfer window so it's a bit of gamble to be thinking purely in economic terms. If this was the middle of the window, fair enough there would probably be enough time to find another player who offers more value for money. At this stage, perhaps fears about paying over the odds should be relegated to a secondary consideration. And anyway, £8-10M isn't a huge outlay. It's not as if we're looking to sign a £30M player.Quote:
