Summer Transfer Speculation and Shit

[hobson's choice]

De Gea for sure.

Cech isn't as good as he once was. Hart is toilet.

I'd put Mignolet and Begovic up there.

Cech still comes good, Mignolet is good stopper, but he looks like he has a bit of Almunia in him. And Hart did have a bad season last year, but I still rate him.

[hobson's choice]

Lloris and Krul make as many, if not more, mistakes than Sir Chesney. Lloris was flaptastic at Lyon. He seems a little better now, but he's not secure at all.

Hart .

I don't really see mistakes from Krul, and i've watched a good portion of their games since he's got there. Yeah his first season or so, he was a bit rash at times, but he's gotten better, and a lot more disciplined.

If we want a keeper and we desperately need one, one of Akinfeev or Handanovic will do.

Both quality, mid to late 20s.

821 pages, and we only have Winnebego to show for it!

Why not Julio Cesar?

Why not Julio Cesar?

Wenger doesn't want to pay him 80 grand a week. A bit silly because he wouldn't command a huge transfer fee, he'd cost around £2m-£4m, compared to someone like Begovic who'd cost £15m

If we lose out to Galatasaray

Ozil won't come here but hopefully Mert and Pod work their magic and somehow convince him we are the right club for him

Stranger things have happened!

I dunno..if Di Maria is actually on the market and we show a bit of ambition he might be attainable IMHO.

The problem is we seem to have such a rigid criteria when it comes to purchasing players that I could see us bulking and walking away.

In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if we end up with nobody due to Principles and all that shit.

We have clearly been after a number of players this summer, some have slipped through the net and gone elsewhere, others we just seem intent on haggling and trying to drive the price down.

Chelsea in talks with Christian Atsu, another winger/creative midfielder.

Mata coming home?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I've been looking at Chelsea's squad and they're definitely missing that kind of player.

After watching Wenget's post match interview, it seems even more unlikely that we'll sign anyone really good. Sounded like someone who has realised he has fucked up. I think he'll go for volume again like two seasons ago - get the fans talking a bit about the new faces before the novelty wears off. Then Wenger will pray the first-team from last year stay fit and improve.

Yeah I think he'll take a punt on a few in hope 1 or 2 prove to be useful. The ones who are shit will be moved on next year and the cycle goes on.
