Summer Transfer Speculation and Shit

What makes people think Wenger will pay for Draxler in the summer when he wouldn't pay this jan? Anything but a done deal.

because shalke have admitted they rejected the bids as they didn't want to sell. however in the summer his release clause becomes active so they can't do anything. not that it means Arsene will pay it straight away, but he tried this january and shalke said no, not him refusing to pay

Not sure anyone is certain we will sign him.....

How would people feel about Loic Remy comming here in the summer? Been reading rumours of him to join us in the summer. He's been a 1-in-2 striker in the premier league for QPR/Newcastle (Giroud is 1-in-3 for us :s), so no doubt he would be able to raise that to another level at our club with the chances we're creating, is alot better match with Özil aswell. In France he scored quite a bit of goals despite being used mainly on the wings.

I agree with you Jonas!! :O

I don't see Remy as much of an upgrade on Podolski. Wouldn't say no to him, but I think we should set our sights higher.

[AFC Leveller]

The Pod's goals/games ratio is more than decent so its surprising that the manager hasnt played him much recently. With Ozil this season a regular in the hole, it has meant that Santi is played out wide and the poor Pod bench warms.

We want Sagna, according to two random Italian journalists

Yep me too. Remy would be great to have as a squad player but we should be aiming much higher than him for our starting striker.

Well you're financial guys are crazy enough to pay Suarez the best salary in the league, so wouldnt surprise me if you offered a 31yr old right back a silly contract aswell

Well I highly doubt he is the best paid player in the league. His salary only gets bumped up to its highest (~£200k) from next season, at which point we'll either be in the the CL (kerching!) or he'll be off. Even then he probably wouldn't be highest paid, what with the likes of Yaya, Aguero and Van Persie. And that discounts the current Rooney negotiations, which if the BBC are accurate with their reports blasts Suarez' supposed wage out the water.

In any case he's one of if not the best player in the league, so his pay will reflect that.
