Transfer News, Rumours and Bollocks Thread

Fuck him if he's offended.

Exactly, Cahill isn't the only decent CB in the Prem either.

Cheeky 8m bid for Vidic? I reckon he's worth the extra 2m.

[Niall_Quinn]

This is all so desperately fucked up it's genuinely amusing. If football is all about entertainment then we've had a cracking transfer window and the hits just keep coming.

[Japan Shaking All Over]

Besides, £6m + add-ons is probably about £10m, which for a defender with a year left on his contract probably isn't a million miles away.

I have now read a few piosts on this and 6 does seem a bit low
Now I am on page 627 and havent read more yet so there might be newer news but lets not get too worked up

something tells me Wenger (who isnt the only one doing the business) will know what he is doing
GP could be right, lower might be more realistic with add ons and a lot factor in to this, if he pulls it off and leaves more cash for Hazard and the like he will be hailed a hero

He definitely thinks he is on a roll, maybe he thinks Owen owes us for loaning him Wilshere, they do seem to have a kind of respect for each other, similar styles

Of course we could just as easily bollocks things up and look like a group of tits. . . .out of our hands tbh. . . .but im sure enjoying the popcorn while watching things unfold. . . .now time to mive on

Gartside and Wenger go head to head...

Wenger may say Bolton don't have to sell if they don't agree with the price, but what we're doing is exploiting the fact that they're in a poor financial situation, therefore trying to get Cahill for less than market value. This is no different to Barcelona exploiting their monopoly position as the only club Cesc was going to join, and because of that advantage were trying to get him for less than his true worth. We were all slagging Barca off for this behaviour (including Wenger), so Wenger deserves equal criticism given his actions RE: Cahill.

Where are the Arsenal players/staff constantly talking about how Cahill would be perfect for Arsenal and that he should come join us? There hasn't been. You're trying to equate something that doesn't equate just so you have something to beat Wenger over the head with.

You are genuinely an idiot if you can't see the difference in behaviour.

The English Pique.

Without the derp.

No point in crowing about the price, he is Boltons biggest asset and Engish, there is no working around the premium, they know we have money to burn as well and a heap of expectation to buy. Either we pay what they want or we move on, we need to bring in some players and time is running out.

Cesc has gone now

So Pique name should never be mentioned on this board ever
the guy is almost trash. . . .fucking scum!
I still can never forget that spitting incident, Cesc and the Barca shirt, the Cesc photo and just the crap that comes out of his mouth

Fucking cunt should just die

Hello! Footie fans are biased, or at least they should be. When Barca do it to us it's shit but when we do it to Bolton I can't see the harm at all. Fuck 'em. What's best for us is what counts. The Fab deal was shite so we are entitled to whinge, getting Cahill for £6mill (which we won't, but anyway) would be very cool. So there's no hypocrisy whatsoever if you look at it from the correct point of view.

Well what's the difference then? Yes, our players haven't been talking about Cahill having Arsenal DNA or any crap like that, but many of the criticisms of Barca on this and other messageboards was the fact that they were trying to get Cesc for as low a price as possible, and how this was disrespectful to Arsenal. In that regard, there is little difference between the two situations.
