More info on Zarate? Was there ever a first clue about him?

His agent and his brother confirmed that we were meeting him for talks the other day

So Chelsea are intersted in Mata, Make a sensible offer, and Mata then goes there, all within a week.

Fuck you Arsenal, liars!!!!!

Chelsea must have cheated in some way to sign all the players they have signed. So have all the other clubs that have mysteriously managed to sign players. Normally it is impossible to sign players. I wonder though, are these the first signs of "Arsenal who?" from the players we are approaching? You don't sell your best and buy nobody without people noticing the lack of ambition. If there was a Loot for football transfers they would all be listed, "Serious offers only, no time wasters or Arsene Wenger".

That's not a good sign. If his people are going public, they may be trying to push up the price.

"Quite why Wenger would want another striker is anyone's guess" as per the article.

Not very insightful that. Van Persie is made of glass. Chamakh is made of shite. The Danish Donkey is off. Walcott is a possibility but no gaurantees he'd do well there either and he's made of glass anyway. So yeah, shocking we'd be going after a striker. Never mind the fact that we've stripped the team bare and need players.

Incidentally, does anyone have a decent sense of whether or not Zarate fits in with what we do? 4-3-3 winger/striker?

Another dogshite player...oh great!

He used to be very highly rated (Zarate).

Then again, so was Wenger.

So was Nick Barmby tho, proofs in the pudding and what you do in your career is what counts.

He played for Birmingham (and in Quatar I think), the fact he ended up there in the 1st place having been highly rated must say something.

His goal record isn't great either, 1 goal every 4 games, not really that great. Just really want to see a goalscorer come in.

[Darth Vela]

The only time he has ripped it up would be in the Premiership, then?

Those certainly aren't the type of players we want here.

He was bought by some dodgy consortium, Joorbachian style, who sent him on loan somewhere to put him in the shop window, it wasn't a case of slipping so much as he was being used as a commodity.

Hardly ripped it up, 14 games and 4 goals...not exactly great.
