Someone else to watch at the Euros I suppose. I always find the word 'monitoring' amusing when it comes to transfer rumours.
Marvin Martin should be signed for his name alone.
Kalou on a free wouldn't be bad although maybe I am saying that because there is an air of inevitability about it.
Prepare to be amazed.Quote:

ARSENAL target Olivier Giroud will not decide his future until after Euro 2012.
The 6ft 3in striker, 25, fired Montpellier to their first French title with 21 goals.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has been tracking Giroud’s progress and is ready with a £15million summer raid.

LAZIO defender Stefan Radu could be on his way to the Premier League.
The Romanian ace, 25, has been strongly linked with Arsenal and both Manchester clubs.
His agent Viktor Becali said: “We are working with someone in England.
“There are three clubs that are very interested in Stefan.
“If we were to receive a good offer and Lazio were to accept, then he could leave.
“Otherwise, he is happy to remain in Rome. He is under contract until 2016.”
Radu joined Lazio from Dinamo Bucharest in 2008 and made 21 Serie A appearances last season.

Euros are not an excuse.
We still wouldnt have bought anyone even if there were no Euros
That doesn't really address the issue. What if these rules aren't enforced and what happens if Wenger doesn't sign a new contract next year? Wenger won't be around forever and it's something we're going to have to deal with. I'm not accusing you of being a 'glory hunting twat' either. I'm just questioning where you guys (Letters and NQ) are going with this argument regarding Board ownership, money and transfers. If we're saying money is ruining the game and what Chelsea and City are doing is wrong, then why are you looking towards their model as the solution? I know you're not arguing for a takeover specifically, but we're still talking about spending our way out of this mess which is part of the problem with football these days. The solution is always seems to be in the transfer market these days. Don't get me wrong, we need some new players to come in because our squad is shocking, but even with a few more key players, I can't see any major improvements while Wenger is still in charge. His flaws run too deep and signings won't fix that. That's why I say he should leave.Quote:

I agree -good post. Remember, Wenger has bought expensive, high-profile players but they have ended up being shit. Arshavin is one example. Reyes also to a certain extent although he was better than Arshavin. Remember he was brilliant for one season but then totally lost his form. Thats down to the manager and coincided with our losing our unbeaten run at Man Utd and then struggling to win our next few games. Walcott was hailed as the next Rooney - now look at him. Inconsistent and average. Wenger wants to buy much cheaper players so that he can hopefully pull a rabbit out of the hat like he did with Henry,Vieira and Anelka. But it hasnt happened for years. He's the problem - not the money.
