Suarez isn't a smokescreen as such, this bid is geniunine I reckon. If we were trying to threaten Real Madrid, we would be bidding as high as we are. I think wenger wants him amd is 100% going for him, not trying to bluff anyoneQuote:

Example from the Mirror today - headline:
The only thing mentioned in the article about spectacular signings?Quote:
Arsene Wenger insists Arsenal are working to bring 'spectacular' signings to the club
Face it, it's a bit shit, but Sanogo will be our only signing come transfer deadline day. That 70mil war chest they are touting has more than likely gone straight into paying off debt. I'd love to be wrong about this, but this summer really just looks the same as any otherQuote:
"You want me to announce a spectacular signing, but I can't.
:lol:Quote:
Hull City manager Steve Bruce has conceded that any deal to sign Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner, 25, could be too expensive.

This from Sky Sports "A further update on Gervinho's future as reports in Africa claim the Arsenal attacker could now be on his way to Lyon. Roma had been interested in a deal but were unable to match Arsenal's valuation of the Ivory Coast international. Reports suggest that, if Lyon offer 7m (£6.1m) plus Yoann Gourcuff for Gervinho, then Arsenal could be tempted to accept the bid."
Works for me but seems a bit too good to be true
really interested to see how some people will defend the Club and Wenger when we enter the season with no new signings.
Probably say something like we have a deal with the selling clubs to announce them the next year so that we can secure other players in the January window or something.
Wenger is a gambler. He keeps getting 4th, which is where his comfort zone is. He has desire but not ambition. He is more afraid of failing so he doesn't dare try to succeed. He won't leave Arsenal unless some Tsunami takes place at board level. Too many similarly chicken hearted persons on our board. It has infested many on this board too sadly. What he terms his love for Arsenal is a screen for cowardice. At any other club he would be unceremoniously disproved in public with his glaring failings as a tactician and resources management.
If this isn't total media BS (which let's face it is highly unlikely), this would be a great deal....money and a very talented player for someone we don't want.Quote:
