Summer Transfer Speculation and Shit.

[Niall_Quinn]

Frankly if it was me, I'd chance my arm with Bayern Munich and offer them silly money for Robert Lewandowski

Too late for that, they;d be left in the same position we are now, fishing around with very little quality swimming in the pond. They wouldn't go for it unless the bid was ludicrous - like £40mill and £2

I'd offer a bit more than that


£40million and two pounds and a can of tizer and half a battered sausage. And a pull out special from the Xmas edition of Goal 1978.

[Injury Time]

Oh, Wilshere is injured again. Just in case you haven't heard. We need to have a lucky break with the injuries this season. We can't afford long term lay offs to too many key players.

Wtf? Dislocate his shoulder striking a match no doubt

Wenger said it isn't serious and it's a matter of days, not weeks. He didn't mention how many hundreds of days that would be though...

[Power n Glory]

He had a scan on Monday and reports saying he's out for three weeks. Will miss the International for England. Ankle injury again. It's a matter of weeks I'm afraid. According to the press anyway.

Wenger's been too indecisive with our strikers and it's why we're scrapping the barrel and looking at ridiculous prices for questionable players. Benzema, Cavani, Higuain.....talented players but there is no way we should be paying £40 to £50m for any of them. All a lot better than Giroud and can be developed into beasts but they're not young and for that money they should be match winners already. It's a gamble so I understand the hesitance from Wenger, especially when he may be able to solve the striker problem internally.

But he's been too indecisive on that front as well. We're going into the season with question marks over all our striking options. Walcott, Welbeck, Giroud and throw Sanchez in the mix as well as he could play through the middle. Wenger just has to commit to someone playing that role. Anyone other than Giroud. Giroud is too frail mentally and the Monaco game was the last example we need. We should have been playing Walcott as striker way back when he had his first round of contract talks or we should have stuck with Sanchez or Welbeck. I don't like the fact that we're going into the season with a huge question mark over this one position. It should have been addressed years back when we were looking at Higuain and Suarez.

Just the same old shit. At the start of every season there is a question over someone leaving or needing a serious upgrade in a particular area. Striker it is this season then again. The DM position has slowly been forgotten over the past few weeks but Le Coq is going to pick up and injury at some point given how he plays and if not, he'll be run into the ground. So we'll have Arteta, Wilshere, or Cazorla and Ramsey paired up to fill the gap. Not good enough at all. Our squad looks strong or terms of midfielders but when it comes to them playing in natural positions it'll be more square pegs in round holes.

Just let this sink in.

Wilshere is becoming the new Rosicky.. fairly decent (sometimes good) when fit, but gives nothing to the squad. I think we should cash in on his GHEL value soon, or else we'd be dealing with this crock for life. Should sell him and Flamini, and get a DM (Wanayama) on board. Suicidal to think this crock will come good!

If City are still offering that £30m, we should take it and run.

Pedro set to join United, £22m

Nah, we can't sell Jack just yet. Too early. Still loads of potential.
