Summer Transfer Speculation and Shit

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Yeh but if you knew the names we were in for you would forget all about Benzema.
Although I can't tell you the names because it may mean that all the deals would suddenly be compromised - what with my blog being the most popular ITK transfer blog in the entire universe.

It's a win - win situation for him as well.

If we do pull of a major transfer soon he'll claim credit for it, irrespective of who it is and whether they were actually on his "list".

If we don't pull it off he's then afforded the opportunity to go of on one of his usual tirades and rants about the club and increase readership that way. Name some random superstar name and blames Wenger and Gazidis for dithering and saying it's epidemic of our overall transfer policy.

I mean the club aren't exactly going to reply to or confirm the rumours that he puts out so won't be able to defend themselves.

I don't fancy Benzema or Mandzukic. Think our best option upfront is to take a risk on Balotelli or Morata, and then sign a handy squaddie like Remy. The fact that 3 top clubs have wanted Balotelli out by age 23 doesn't fill me with confidence but he can twat a ball in from 50 yards out so he might do that a few times for us. Wouldn't get bullied by any defender, only the crowd.

Did Goonersweb send him a birthday card, if not the deal is off

Really hope Wenger has players lined up.

Last few days haven't been easy for the fans that's for sure.

Cesc looks like a wanker in that kit.

I heard Atletico Madrid want Vela - is it too late to fuck up Chelsea's move for Costa?

I think you guys are wide off the mark. This is the message coming out from the club. Gazidis had already stated we're deep in negotiations with our targets during an Arsenal Supports Q&A session.

It's the Gazidis PR machine in full effect.

Some shaky parts to Benzema's game. I think he has potential but at 26 he needs to step his game up now.

Good thing about the World Cup is we'll get to see both Benzema and Balotelli in action. I'd be happy with either of them. But forget Mandzukic.

Mandzukic could work if we beefed up our wide options too, but I'd rather have one of the other two...
