:lol:
Serious question. It looks like we will sign samba and gervinho, if wenger signs cahil too and perhaps one more. Is it enough or do you want more?
Looks like we're stuck with Denilshit :rose:Quote:
Arsenal have been rebuffed in an attempt to sign Shakhtar Donetsk ace Douglas Costa, according to the player's agent.
The Brazil Under-20 midfielder caught the eye for the Ukrainian side this season during their run to the Champions League quarter-finals and has been linked with a move away this summer.
And, speaking to Calciomercato.com, his agent Cesar Bottega has claimed that Arsenal have approached Shakhtar with a swap deal involving out-of-favour midfielder Denilson.
The 23-year-old has announced his desire to leave the Emirates after failing to cement a place in the Gunners' midfield and will almost certainly depart before the start of the season.
It had been reported that Arsenal have already offered Denilson in a swap deal for fellow Shakhtar midfielder Willian, who is also Brazilian.
But Douglas Costa's agent now thinks that Arsenal are after a different Samba star from the club's ranks - but they won't get him unless they pay up.
Bottega said: "The Gunners have offered the club Denilson in exchange for Douglas but Shakhtar said no. They are not interested in Denilson and would want only money."
He did play against them away tbf and put in his normal shit performance so we can't convince them on the back of youtube vids unfortunatley.
Depends entirely on who or what the 'one more' is, if he's a midfielder with a bit of grit/physicality or whatever and we don't lose anyone of note (i.e. Cesc + Nasri) then I'd be relatively happy.

That bit just cracked me up, I'm guessing we're going to try that with every deal this summer.Quote:
