Henry

[GP]

New this morning is that if Henry does a job, we might be taking him on loan for the rest of the season.

I can't think of many quality stirkers that want to move on in this window, so I can see the logic behind it.

If we're gonna move for a player, I think it's more likely to be someone who can fill in at left back and also play on the wing. I'm wondering whether we're gonna try and offload Arshavin before that happens though.

With the Euro's in the summer, you won't see many players willing to move in January. That's just the way it is.

I think Henry and perhaps a full back, there are rumours about Abidal circulating will be our only January signings.

I can't see us moving for anybody else, TBH I don't think the likes of Goetze or Podalski will be attainable, not at the moment and most certainly not in the summer/after the Euros when their stock will be sky high.

I think some of us have to accept that we don't and cannot attract highly rated sought after young talents or established players for a variety of reasons. As long as we finish in top 4 we will also be linked to some high profile-ish players but the reality is that the chances of us signing them are quite low. Let's face it, the only high profile-ish players we do sign are ones who we face no competition for their signature.

TBF alot of highly rated players want big wages these days and our board/manager won't budge on that, unless we get a sugar daddy in, we will never match the likes of citeh/chavs, mancs just the way it is.

Signing players in jan will be dependant on what the board is happy to achieve. if they are happy to see us challenge for 4th but not to bothered if we miss out then not many signings will come, why waste money.

If they need 4th then signings will come, one thing for sure is by the end of the window we will see how ambitious we aere for this season.

I can accept that we can't afford to do what Man City and other moneybag clubs do, what's unacceptable is doing the absolute bare minimum to get by.

I think Utd signing Scholes back til the end of the season says a lot tbh.

Players (even shit one) are paid so much money these days it's not practical to sign a short term replacement. Plus they are all selfish cunts who moan when they aren't starting, so the cheap but decent squad player is hard to find. We're seeing more loans, the big transfers clustered around fewer clubs. This is the natural consequence of the unfathomable greed that has all but killed the game. I wouldn't mind but hardly any of these little shits are fit to lace the boots of the great players that went before them. Rooney, for example, one of the top players in the world apparently. I say he's mediocre on the scale of things. Cunt's on £150K per WEEK and also feels it's his place to tell the club who to buy. You don't get any of that shit with Scholes coming back. He won't be the player he was but he'll still be a great professional who will help rather than rape the club that gave him everything. Same with Henry,

[Marc Overmars]

I guess so, clubs like City have certainly inflated the market to a ridiculous level. However us beating around the bush is nothing new.

If we didn't beat around the bush nobody else would know who to sign.

[Flavs]

Seems likely Kalou will come as well, can play either wing and upfront. Seems a very "Wengerish" player to me

Where's that come from?
