And for full spectrum coverage I'll punch him in the face and balls if Walcott doesn't leave.

:lol:

I'll punch him in the head.

I'll punch him in the sphincter

Just some of the players we won't sign.

I think we could get Holtby but we would need to flex our muscles a bit financially in terms of his wage offer. He fits the profile, "young", "bundles of potential", midfielder (who will probably be converted into a wide player), "technically gifted" etc etc.

I really like Holtby, if he's developed and managed properly he will turn into a top class player IMHO, he has a very high ceiling.

Yeah that is true, it did cross my mind after I posted it!

The only card we hold in this deal is that the boy supports Arsenal, other than that, City & United have everything else over us, they are both on him big time from what I've read.

He's still out on loan at Real Betis, only appeared for them 6 times and hasn't scored yet. They don't show much La Liga here in NZ so haven't seen him play for them though i have seen a couple of Costa Rica games and he looks pretty useful albeit v pretty ordinary opposition. I note Sir Nick has yet to score for Juve also. Park C-Y would be close to the most successful of our loanee strikers out there with 2 goals for Celta Vigo.

So in summary, re-calling any of the loan deal strikers seems pretty pointless, Henry is destined to be our "January signing" and in truth, i'd still be pretty happy about that :good:

Strootman at PSV being linked, anyone seen much of him?

Quite literally never heard of him.

Not seen anything of him but he's becoming a regular fixture in the Dutch team I think.

Sign him up, Arsene.
