They're going to have to be very active to gain ground and turn 1 step forward and 2 steps back into 2 steps forward and 1 step back.Originally Posted by Ach
Replacing RVP, Chamakh, Bendtner with Podolski, Giroud and Jovetic would probably be significant progress.
We'd still need 2-3 more players in addition to Jovetic, should there be any truth in that, to demonstrate sufficient ambition
Reading the stoey below, that may not be as far fetched as it sounds. . .although it may mean we pay than 25mil as we will have to pay them to take Chamakh tooSwap with Jovetic
Arsene says Fiorentina's offer is a 'very advantageous' one. Why can't he just use normal words and sentences rather than being such a WUM. What the fuck does that mean? Metro have it as £4m.
Some #decent hit-and-hope bargains available for clubs that want to chance their arm.
Chamakh - £4m
Vela - £3m
Bendtner - £5m
Van Persie - £12m
Arshavin - £5m

And is it my imagination or is Wenget being uncharacteristically vocal about transfers this season? Usually it's all "When I know something I let you know" and "the priority is to keep what we have" and "We are not close to anybody".
Think you're right. Arseblog mentions something similar this morning about Giroud - Wenger saying the deal was pretty much done, and Podolski as well.
I guess the news that everyone is waiting to hear is that of Van Persie and Walcott but he's quiet on that front.
Because then the press can't answer an awkward follow-up question. Probably better than him saying 'fuck off and mind your own business - go make some crap up for your tacky column, you tosser'.
I just meant something like 'good' instead of 'advantageous'. Advantageous - on our part - makes it seem like maybe Fiorentina have only made a loan offer and it will be an advantage for us to get Chamakh back on the pitch for some time and come back with more experience.
I can't imagine Wenger talking about any player leaving being an advantage for us so that's why I'm little bit confused with the handbrake on.
if its anything over 5mil sell him
Hang on who was that nutter there that got in a fight with the manager? perhaps the offer is a swap for Chamakh, which would be advantageous to us as we get rid of Chamakh and get a player in his place
On Walcott, I struggle to see where he could go that would pay him the 100k or whatever. He'd obviously want to go to City, Utd or Chelsea but I really can't see them wanting him. Of the rest I reckon only Liverpool can afford those wages, (Spurs couldn't) and it's by no means a given that either party is interested in the other.
Which leaves abroad, where you need technique.
My gut feeling is he'll re-sign.
I'd say the advantageous part is that we have a clause that devoids us of any accountability once Foirentina release they have been sold a dudChamakh -->
