Re: Latest Arsenal Rumours

I'd confidently pick a more physical DM like De Rossi over the finesse ones you mentioned.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Thu Apr 26, 2012 10:56 pm

Thing is De Rossi combines the best of both worlds Very Happy

he's physical but he has finesse too.....

Which is why teams are desperate for him lol, will never leave Roma tho.

Song > De Rossi

by MJ Fri Apr 27, 2012 8:34 am

True, but the reason I'm skeptical of Coquelin playing a DM role is his physical stature. At least Sergio and Lucas have size and strength to their advantage.

Apparently Arsenal scout Grimandi was scouting someone from the Toulouse - Montpellier match.

Belhanda bounce

He scored the only goal. Kenny Dalglish was there aswell.

Arsenal very interested in signing Barcelona winger Isaac Cuenca this summer according to breaking reports in Spain.

I like Tello more than Cuenca but he Cuenca is a good player too.

if Walcott and Gerv frustrate people, Tello would have people ripping their hair out

Rennes' midfielder Yann M'Vila is Arsene Wenger's priority at the minute (via @LaurensJulien )

@XimoVCF: Reliable Spanish radio source (@Al_PrimerToque) says Arsenal are in for Bilbao's Markel Susaeta. hmm

@Al_PrimerToque says it isn't just interest, claims Arsenal have made an offer for Susaeta.

Lukas Podolski
Yann M'Vila
Markel Susaeta
Jan Vertonghen

Certainly liking the targets, that's for sure. Still think there's room for a playmaker in there, even with Wilshere returning and possibly Arshavin staying next season.

According to this morning’s Telegraph, who always seem to have an inside line to Arsenal’s transfer dealings, Arsene Wenger sent his scouts to watch the Europa League semi-final between Athletico Bilbao and Sporting Lisbon to report on the performance of the Spanish international Javi Martinez, who is expected to be available for about half the price of M’Vila.

From an article posted here.. About Mvila..
*
He has previously stated that it would be difficult to turn downa move to a club managed by a fellow Frenchman, which puts Arsenal in the lead in the race for his signature.
Should M'Vila make a move to the Emirates in the summer transfer window, he will face competition for a place from the returning Denilson.:lol!:

i have not seen him in action.. Is he that good to receive competition from Denilson.. Then no way we sign him..

by Kwame2u Mon Apr 30, 2012 9:41 am

Mvilla is much better than Denilson. I didnt want him b4 but with Diaby's injury's, i think we should go for him.
Wenger can then give Diaby enough time to heal and become the beast he was bought to become. YES, I know they play different roles.

having Mvilla would allow for Song to b deployed as a B2B player. When Diaby has fully healed, we could play him Song and Mvilla against the physical teams like Stokes rugby team.

by urbaNRoots Mon Apr 30, 2012 10:01 am

I like the rumours, nothing like in January when we were linked with Gourcuff, Kalou lmao.

Kagawa doesn't want to renew his contract with Dortmund, and has interes to play in the EPL. Would love him or Belhanda. Type of players we need.

by SamuelJayC Mon Apr 30, 2012 11:49 am

Kagawa is not a only a good attacking midfielder, he also comes with the lure of the Asian market benefits.

I heavily expect Manchester United to sign him though, they have already offered him a contract.

Belhanda? Wenger admitted on his Eurosport blog a few months back that he admires him greatly, but with Montpellier set to win Ligue 1, they are in a strong position to keep him.

by SamuelJayC Mon Apr 30, 2012 7:45 pm

Several English clubs, unknown at this stage, have contacted Seydou Keita's agent regarding free transfer this summer (via @BarcaStuff )

by Kwame2u Mon Apr 30, 2012 10:47 pm

Poldi done
Advanced talks for Mvilla. Coach is pushing to complete deals b4 Euros.
Hopefully, Vertongen will follow them in

by Sina Mon Apr 30, 2012 11:07 pm

am i the only one not excited at all regarding M'vila/Vertonghen/Hazard( Laughing

by SamuelJayC Mon Apr 30, 2012 11:08 pm

Wenger has made Jan Vertonghen his priority following signing of Lukas Podolski. Defender could cost just £7m - http://bit.ly/Jv9rhI

m'villa and vert? i am, it would add depth to our team, which we need if we are going to challenge for the epl and cl double Cool

by Arsenalfaithfull Mon Apr 30, 2012 11:25 pm

Why not go for Marvin Martin. Cheap. French. Pure play maker.

Should we get M'vila, a midfield trio of MV,Song, Wilshere would not be so bad.
