Hmm hope that means we're focussing on Izaguirre or Enrique then. £7m is a good price for Clichy, got a feeling he'll be rejuvenated by leaving arsenal.

I know Pastore is good, but why on earth is he worth that much. Palermo haven't done anything, and talents who are better than him like Ozil and Sahin have gone for less. I know its Real madrid/Bundesliga relationship, but what they are asking for Pastore is such a bullshit amount. seria A is not a competetve market these days and anything beyond 20 million is just a joke. If I would be a chairman for a club, would go to other leagues to spot talents rather than quarrel with those silly Seria A teams. Same goes with Sanchez and the likes.

I worry for Arsenal, have a soft spot for them, they really need to sort out that team

if both goes (fab and nasri), don't be too surprised if arsenal drops out of top 4

i just can't see arsenal selling to nasri to man utd ... then again he may walk for free next summer ... tough decision to be made @ arsenal

Here in Brazil people say that is almost certaint that Neymar will go to Madrid, while Ganso is going to Milan. But I think that Santos will hold them til the end of the year for the match against Barça. It will be a beautiful game...

I do think that both have to go (and not for cheap). But what depresses me is that it seems that Wenger is not even looking for players for those roles. Ok, Wilshere is good, but come on...
 
I'm pretty sure Ganso said he wants to play for Milan. He said something like he wants to play for Santos against Messi in the Club World Cup and then go to Milan.

Indeed if that happens I think they have to be favourites to drop out of the top 4 next year, I believe our target to replace in the top 4 would be thm.

Valdes and his constant running from one part of the pitch to another just to participate in the small fights is sickening. Sadly he gets away with it all the time as he is part of the unicef conspiracy.



Not even a card.

TIGER KNEE!!!

Clichy strikes me as not being great at defending and pretty poor at attacking. I'd much prefer Izaguirre and to a lesser extent, Enrique. We shouldn't pay more than £10m for Enrique.

Neymar is better than Robinho, IMO. But I'm not a fan of the person either. Ganso is cool, very calm and focused. On the field they're both great, but Neymar is the man on the TV in the moment. But their prices are the same, I think. But Ganso gets injured very often, while Neymar don't.

Rumors that Nasri's booked in for a medical at united next week. Says Fergie wants to get transfers done in time for pre-season. imo don't think its true.

I hope this Clichy news means we'll soon be signing Izaguirre. Such a good player and not that high profile so the price won't be astronomical.

Will Bruce and Sunderland stop fucking signing people please?!? They're making the rest of the league look bad.

South Korean Ji Dong-won is his newest capture.

You are underestimating Pastore, underestimating Sanchez, underestimating Serie A, and most of all underestimating the showman that is Maurizio Zamparini.

When all the loans left we probably had smallest squad in the league.

Craig Gardner will probably sign today too.

Met Niall Quinn here recently, he lives around here. Really nice guy, he was talking to my dad who I did not know they knew each other :/ He was stressed over transfers funnily enough :p

The Torres/Carroll transfers aside, if Cesc is valued at £40 and unproven talent like Neymar at £45 or more, then Pastore is a fair price in the £30-35 range imo. I specifically watched a few Palermo games last season when they aired live here to see him in action. And while I definitely rate Hamsik as the better of the two, that might have to do with the formation and players around him, rather than actual talent. Pastore is no doubt world class.

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much

HA! Spends more time injured than any other player at the club.

He's not that good anyway, certainly not good enough to be first choice. Yet another of Arsenal's glass players.

How close are City to signing Clichy? Because Fox is reporting that they're also in for Baines now too at £20(!) WTF is Mancini's end game here?

As far as Europe. I understand he's killing on home turf and has looked excellent in his five games for the national side, but he's still a kid and unproven imo, especially at the kind of money they're asking.

I want him in Blue, by the way, at almost any cost. This is the last summer to splurge.....
 
To me Valdes is a bigger cunt than two Sergio's. If he did that to my team mate (kneed him like that), I wouldn't let him walk off that pitch. What annoyed me even more was how he was signalling to the medics after that. There are some players like e.g. Barton and Pepe who are bullies but don't hide it. Then there are the snakes like Valdes

I don't understand at all wtf Valdes was trying to do.... He must have forgot he was a keeper or some shit.....Could have totally used his hands instead of a knee to the face.... Probably still get flack if he punched the dude in the face but its a little bit more in the realm of the game.

That was as blatant as a knee to the face that I've ever seen. There is no way that knee height was a leap, but he disguised it as such. If the referees had video replay, he would have been off. No doubt about that in my mind

After walking away at first.

Massive dickhead. I am in a condemning frame of mind, having been elbowed and kicked at indoor tonight, but his conduct in that video was atrocious.
