Lionel Messi's son Thiago was born today. Him and Cristiano Jr (Ronaldo's son) were born 869 days apart. How many days older is Cristiano Ronaldo than Lionel Messi? 869 days.

Holtby, I could see going to England, he's out of contract next summer and has an English father, he'll play there for sure one day.
Schürrle, if Leverkusen makes it to the CL this season, no way that Völler will let him go. If they don't they might let him go. I doubt he'd go to Arsenal, though.

Holtby and Schurrle will probably cost quite a bit more than £12m.
They'd both done next to fuck all when Arsenal bought them though; looked promising at Championship level. But Schurrle has scored at the Euros, both have played in the CL
Actually Ox hadn't even played in the Championship

lol Porto has a better chance of getting Schurrle than Arsenal
Really? Then the comparison is even mootier (mooter? mooted? MOOT) than before!
To be fair I was replying to a post that Arsenal wouldn't spend money on upcoming talent. Arsene if anything is more likely to spend his money on that than anything.
Fair enough. Maybe he'll learn something after being burnt by the Mata sitchi

He will come to Chelsea in the summer when Sturridge leaves. Torres will already have left at that point to make way for Falcao.
They may have Arsenal DNA.

Arsenal are likely to spend a bit more money in the coming years. They'll be £50m better off ever year from next year with the new TV rights deal and they're renewing their sponsorship deals too, so there's extra revenue there also.
Problem is, most of the clubs they're competing with, especially in England, also have a lot more money so today's £12m might be £20m next summer when everyone's a bit richer.

£25m a year is the rumoured deal with Adidas. Might not matter though if Arsenal don't get a Champion's League place.

What do you gunners think of Giroud? I see nothing when I have seen him but granted its only been 2 or 3.
Serious question, is it? Hearing that it didn't have a retina screen was enough to turn me away.
He has a good heading ability and... well I'm hoping we'll see the rest of his game.
Best French player in the league
On his best day in the Prem he's had Sturridge level of finishing. If he starts tomorrow, he'll have at least three or four real chances on goal and piss all of them away. He's clearly still finding himself at the club.
Koscielny already holds that title I'm afraid.

Giroud - 15 apps, 3 goals, 3 assists, £13,000,000
Benteke - 15 apps, 7 goals, 0 assists, £10,000,000

Belgium is barely a real country, lets just put Hazard under France and call him the best French player in the league.
I haven't seen much of Benteke but Giroud does a lot of work in and around the box that those stats don't show.

The Belgian players in the league are better than the French ones.
Benteke does a lot of hold up play to receive the ball as well.

That's what Capello said about Heskey.
Gareth Bale, best English player
Also I didn't really rate Mignolet last year but he's been Sunderland's best this season

Yeah they're class. Most probably going to be the worlds two best players in a year or two.
