Probably the same people who would want us to get Hazard because he can do a few step overs instead of Gervinho who's actually closer to what we actually need.

Funny how Lille are more willing to sell Gervinho than Hazard though. Suggests to me they think he's a better player. They've pretty much said Hazard is untransferable, whilst they'd like to keep Gervinho he's not seen as important as Hazard.

Pretty much certain he's off to cheslea now.

"I am leaving things up to my agent," Falcao is quoted as saying by the Daily Star.

"I am very calm about the situation but I know there has been some movement.

"If Chelsea is interested in me then all that needs to happen is for negotiations to take place."
Falcao

Gervinho has a year left on his contract. Hazard has 4, hence why we're about to get Gervinho for less than crazy (20-30mill) money.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Young was in his last year at Villa wasnt he?

And Villa manage to get £20m for him.

Nasri, a far better player is in his last year and the talk was £8m for him



Shows that other managers know that Wenger will bend over for them

The mancs got robbed paying that for young. he is no where as good as made out.

well even if they had not got him or don't they'd get someone of equal talent anyway. At least they won't get neymar.

Fair enough, but I would have said that if we were gonna sign a striker it should be a no nonsense finisher.

He's very much a Wenger type player, which isn't necessarily a good thing.

He suits the 4-3-3 system we play, which is better than most of our signings of late.
