Winter Transfer Speculation and Shit.

Draxler will be comming in the summer. They just signed Sidney Sam (he joins July 1st i think) and if they're getting Holtby aswell, i think its pretty obvious that Draxler will be leaving in the summer.

Nobody is coming up with any realistic options. Costa for £30mill then Drexler in the summer, that's not happening. Who's out there in the £5-10mill range that is any better than Giroud or Podolski or Ox or Gnabry?

Draxler would never cost £40mill, his release clause would be closer to £30mill IMO.

Somehow I am not buying Wenger spending £30mill for goal poacher like Costa, just my gut feeling.

I fear too we won't actually do anything this window.....

£37mill is the clause, according to the media. So we know it won't be that then. Maybe it will be £30mill.

£30,000,001 I hear.

17 goals in 18 games for Negredo apparently. If only....

I think that puts to bed the argument that Giroud is as good as him.

Yet we're still above his team.

I know he's good, but sometimes it's like looking at your mate's missus and thinking you'd like a piece, when in fact you she wouldn't be a great deal better after a couple of pumps than that nagging bitch at home.

I should say, I don't think Giroud is the better player.

We just play differently.

There's other factors in that, Negredo certainly isn't one of them.

Fact is he's in his 1st season and has outscored Giroud (Giroud already scored less in his 1st season). I don't think Giroud is that talented, he's done well this season but he's certainly got his limitations, Negredo is just a better finisher and pound for pound a better player.

That's not belittling Giroud, like I said he's making the most of his talent, I still have the opinion that Giroud should be more of a squad player than a regular 1st teamer for us.
