If this yaya deal blocks the signing of higuain im happy. Hes almost as bad as that podolski.

You think Yaya is better than Higuain?Originally Posted by BOBN
Higuain has an opportunity cost.
Yayas a much better signing, plus we have fack all young strikers coming through.
Yep, Yaya is free and probably the best young talent in Europe. He's free and we have been first to discover him, nobody else has twigged so far. And he's free.

Some of the reactions on this site are quite frankly ridiculous. We have moved to sign a striker with bags of talent on a FREE and you would think that Wenger has come out and said that is the only signing for the start of next season. I appreciate we have a precedent set from previous seasons but seriously give the guy a chance - the season hasn't even finished!
This signing is a no brainier and if you take the time to read up on this guy he is/was one of the hottest properties in Europe till a serious injury. Lots of clubs were moving to sign him before his injury. Sure it is a gamble but its not like we've sold Wilshere/Walcott and bought this fella. He has all the attributes to become a great player if he can stay fit - he's 20 and been bought probably with a view to trying to give him a decent amount of time to develop and get his body right.
I will lay my house on Wenger buying decent players this summer who will be ready to make an impact. With Mancini, Rafa and Fergie gone Wenger will know tht with a few key players added he will not have a better opportunity to get us back to the top!
So please lets panic and bitch and moan when it's OFFICIAL that we are not signing anymore players
Save yourself a little time next year by bookmarking that post.
I wouldnt worry about it, people are idiots...
according to people on the internet we shouldnt have signed RVP because of Ryan Smith

There is alot of ability out there - can we guarantee that Van Persie is a better prospect than Ryan Smith or Aliadiere?
and then you have people in here saying stuff like "Wenger doesnt care how it looks to the fans". No Shit!
The guy will spend a season in the reserves, play 2 League Cup games, maybe go on loan a few times, before heading back to France in a few years.
I have no reason to believe otherwise until one of these punts come off. He got it right many years ago, but his eye for youth is not what it used to be.
The new Gilles Sunu.
If I was a betting man I'd put big money on Yaya being the next Henry. Thank fuck I'm not a betting man.

its pretty official tbh. when was the last time wenger bought 2 strikers in the same transfer window?
we needed a top striker to fit into our system, to help us push on next season and give giroud a real run for his money.
this was supposed to be the year wenger was changing his ways. even if this player turns out good, the fact wenger took yet another risk when we are in no position whatsoever to take risks having limped over the finishing line over the past 2 seasons (hope im not tempting fate) shows how stupid, immoral and completely negligent he is. to him it seems like its just a big joke. he's so obsessed in finding the next henry and getting praise for turning nothing into something that he's become blind to the realities of the modern world. lost all aspect of common sense.
we've ended up with another injury prone, young, raw striker. im not a genius but that smacks of idiocy.
he hasnt even played 5 consecutive games in his career
