January Transfers -- Speculation & Shit?

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Wenger has always done that. If he can't get who he wants then he sticks with what he has. Its not only on the pitch he lacks a plan B

Yep Julio Baptista ring any bells. Remember that summer he wanted him and put all his eggs in that basket when he could not get him, or wasted the summer not getting him, we had no time to look for someone knew.

Same thing with Mata, he clearly wanted him, soon as that deal fell through same old.

a revealing insight that. i would've thought that when you are managing expectations and money of such a large size you would be wise enough to have a few back up plans in place rather than not getting the man you want and then going to diaby next.

sure, he wanted to play in defence, fine. so who's next on the list, who can we buy to replace song? seems quite straight forward to me but what the fuck do i know.

Feckin MVila should have been bought. . .clearly wanted the move, clearly better than a lot of what we have, clearly weren't going to have break the bank for him so clearly not a bad plan B but why did we not get him. . , because he had a row with a cabbie or something?

Quite clearly fucked that one. . .ala as per

how many medicals did he have? 4897? didnt he revolutionise the medical industry with the amount of medicals he potentially had in our medical centre full of medically crocked medical experts?

There was a time when he was a Must Get™but then we did our usual humming and arring over prices. The price went down and stayed down even after the Euros in which he wasnt great but nor was anyone on the French team and we still didnt go for him! Now dont tell me Wenger knew something because I dont buy that anymore.

In my eyes you know Bo fucking Diddly if you sell our first eleven holding mid and bring in jack shit to replace him.

Same old story.

Don't get the player we want and that's it, wenger just makes do.

Don't forget we have (insert name) who can play there also.

This has been cited many times, there's absolutely no planning and it's shocking that a club of our stature have just one target and no fall back plan, everything about the club on the football side is a bit amateurish IMO, we're a big club with a small club mentality at the moment.

Yeah but was mostly down to his bad attitude or was that rubbish the media made up about us not buying him.

MANCHESTER UNITED and Arsenal are battling to capture PSV Eindhoven’s £17million-rated midfielder Kevin Strootman.

He has made no secret of his desire to play at the highest level.
And he could get his wish next month, with a host of top clubs on alert as the January transfer window approaches. AC Milan, Liverpool and Tottenham are also tracking Strootman, but United and Arsenal are leading the chase.
