Summer Transfer Speculation and Shit.

This is where it gets silly. If we offer the team the right sort of money they'll go out and find a replacement straight away. As suspected, we'll gamble on deadline day and hope chess pieces move in the final hours so we can get our man. If we're a top striker away from winning the league I don't think we should be relying on such a risky strategy especially when we have the money for it.

Nah. As silly and dumb as Real are at times, even they wouldn't willingly sell their only premier striker (I'm assuming it's Benzema Harris is hinting at) unless they had someone already in too replace him

Only other way to force the issue as I hinted above is to make the player want to come here and request a move.

Because of what I see as the paucity of available top quality strikers there is very little incentive for top clubs to sell theirs, and if we are honest....other than money what can we offer him at Arsenal that he doesn't have already at Real Madrid?.

Oh and he's just scored against City

A club without Rafa maybe? He'll piss a lot of people off at Real Madrid with his management style.

Which poses an interesting debate on whether people think Benitez or Wenger is the better manager?

Wenger all day.

Rafa in!

There's been plenty of opportunities to buy top strikers in the past we've always let them slip by, if there aren't many strikers available it's our own fault, now we just need to make it happen.

If he money's right the player will be available.

Rafa in!

Meh. He's no Tony Pulis.
