Summer Transfer Speculation and Shit

[Fist of Lehmann]

Cesc took a pay cut and waived his loyalty fee to join Barca. He wasn't earning much there. The wage story is BS. This would have dragged on for much longer if we had tabled a bid but hit a stumbling block with the personal terms.

That was very noble of him. Now he's going to get £200k a week. I'm not sure what going rate for obscenity is these days.

It's a moving target, subject to rampant inflation. Your imagination doesn't stand a chance.

Le Grove should stop being such a cock tease and name the talent we're after ...... that's if he isn't making this BS up to get hits which is what I'm starting to suspect.

I mean there's already an article on the internet linking us to every foreseeable superstar out there now the whole world world knows we have money; what harm would more rumours really do? I doubt the words of one of out of countless hundreds of Arsenal bloggers and internet commentators is going to affect in any way the deal we're allegedly trying to do.

Le Grove must really have lost the plot.

He can't because he doesn't know and just made it up.

[Niall_Quinn]

Also, I said I’d tell you this week about the name I had. I can’t, because it might still be on. Once it’s dead and buried, then we can talk about the name. Until then, feast on Carlos Vela, who wasn’t the name.

I'm convinced.

Well, chances are if there is any ounce of truth then the moment the name comes up, someone else will pay his actually market price and wages.

I doubt most clubs will be eagerly refreshing the transfer the section of a random Arsenal blog before deciding to conduct business. Most of them have their own vast internal scouting networks to narrow down players and with how globalised the game & communications have become and with agents wielding the power they do, the top clubs would already be aware if a world class player is available.

Besides if these players are the supposed world class mind blowing players that Le Grove keeps hyping about and not unknown nobodies, most other top clubs should be aware of them already.

Really there is no reason for Le Grove to keep these "alleged names" hidden other than to build up hits for his site which I'm guessing must be struggling from the increased competition.

Bastian Schweinsteiger is available and Utd are in for him.

If we don't sign him, having already let Fabregas walk, well this club can just go and find the tallest cliff, jump, and then have its corpse arsefucked by leprous apes.
