We are heavily linked with both of them, would be nice to have both of them but knowing Wenger he will only buy one. What you think ???????????

Both.
Play in different positions
Get both
Podolski, I'm not convinced by Dempsey even if he's been having a good year.
Dempsey to replace Arshavin.
Podolski to upgrade our attacking options in general.
Sorted.
Although I very much doubt we'll be in the running for Dempsey, unfortunatley.
A bit shocking from me, but I haven't seen enough of Dempsey to make a call on him tbf.
I've wanted podolski since he went eppy a few years back for Germany. Top player, and really hoping all the rumours are true. Das Fox Int Das Box.
I'll get the lowdown on Podolski from some locals this weekend over a beer.
Germans. :bow:
Dempsey is off to Liverscouse for £13mil and £83k a week
You heard it here first (well, maybe second)
Dempsey for sure. No brainer.
Proven PL player. Pod could be another Chamakh for all we know.
PoDempsey :bow:
43 goals in 95 apps. Pretty impressive until you realise he's only scored against poor sides like Thailand, San Marino, Liechtenstein and England.
I like Dempsey, he has a little bit of arseyness about him, a real fighter. Like Arteta he's not young but he's had loads of EPL experience, and coming from a team where they have to graft for every point he already has a good work ethic. Scores goals, plays in various positions. He'd be a sound purchase (and further proof that the buying policy has changed tack).
Poldo is more of a gamble. He could turn out to be super quality (but not super super quality). I doubt we'd get both unless both Arshavina nd Schmack leave.
Podempski :bow:
Word on the street is: Shitmak is on his way back to bordeux come the summer.
Wenger won't make a move for Dempsey. No chance of it happening.
I'd prefer Podolski too as he seems a bit more versatile - and will probably play out wide if Van Persie stays.
Dempsey would be good but I think there are other areas to spend cash on first. Oxlade and Wilshere (if not broken) might have the ACM position pinned down in Arsene's eyes.
Dempseys better than both tbh
Wilsheres dead and Ox is needed elsewhere in the team ie left wing
Hes played one game in the middle in his whole career (i say this without knowing or indeed caring where he played for Southampton) and hes more effective there?
He played there in a game where we had no choice but to attack therefore he didnt have to worry about anything else.
It wont be like that every game. Dont think hes disciplined enough yet for that. Play on the left. We have no one else who an play there bar Song and Song is needed in DM.
And Dempseys better than Ox in the middle anyway so doesnt really matter
Not sure, may not happen but it would be similar to Wumgers Arteta signing, somebody reliable and with experience. Would slot in right away and would play part of a decent rotayion of players. Cant see Oxo starting every game in centre as I cant see Jack being risked 1057 games a season again. Benny will go back to Chavs and we will need cover, we have Little Mozart too
Dempsey is plenty versatile. Against Chelsea he played up front on his own, he often plays wide, and could pretty much play in any of the attacking or attacking midfield positions.
It's an either/or however, and the łPod signing seems a done deal. That being the case, I would agree, other areas should be strengthened first. If Rvp leaves (which he won't) then Dempsey wouldn't be my first choice for main striker.
We should have enough in the bank to get both and Vertonghen, never the 6p generated from the sale of Nic, Cham, Arshavin. . .
It is still a hung court regarding Santos, has potential leg ststus but he is a bit. . .(dont know you finish that for me), may need LB cover?
Baines and Fellaini tbh
Dempsey and Podolski for attacking options
Get another keeper in
Vertonghen as well perhaps
A RB for cover and we're sorted
7 players minimum needed
Best Lb in the League Baines is.
We need a left back more than a right back. Santos is good going forward but can't defend and Gibbs is just simply shit.
Hes done fine, especially considering the manner in which he was thrown in
