i have him at £15 million - only 26, lots of champions league experience, can play on either side of a forward line

He had an absolutely shocking year last season though on an individual level, and is running out of contract time. He was so bad, he can have no complaints about Valencia being picked ahead of him.



Is it stupid to kind of wish we had a GB football team, just because it would basically be England with Gareth Bale?

 

[G-Unit]

Signing Rooney will make Neymar happy. You have to keep him happy

If we sign Garay, Vidic might actually be moving on
Don't do it Moysey!

Neymar tap dat ass... he is as happy as he could be... he's been just greedy

 

[Carbonox]

Any one else seen the stupid Star Wars film marathon advert on ITV? Why is it playing to 'What a feeling'? :lol Makes me laugh every time.

I would like a Britain team and an All-Ireland team (like the rugby), but then I don't care about international football at all. They'd probably riot over the Ireland thing

i suppose. it's not too long since he was excellent, more than ten assists in each of the two seasons before that.

i forgot his contract was near the end though. i thought he had longer. yeah that would probably bring him down to ~10 million

 

[Broder Salsa]

Arsenal could use a flat out cunt like Suarez. They need some grinta in their squad.

They need him in the midfield though.

/dead

 

[Vivalaraza]

Sid Lowe also saying Higuain is set to sign on a 3 year deal.

Arsenal only gonna have him for 2 years :lol

I Bet That You Look Good On The Dancefloor is a terrible, terrible song

COME AT ME

It's not.

But they have much better ones.

COME AT ME

It isn't terrible, but it isn't great.

 

[Walshy]

COME AT ME

Nah.

Although it isn't even the best song on their first album, that belongs to A Certain Romance.

 

[Salvadora]

Wenger should never be given money again.

 

[Peco]

Wenger should never be given money again.

Arsenal need a Zamparini.

 

[Yen]

Seriously, either Higuian is gone in 2 years for £20m or less, or Arsenal give him a massive contract.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

I don't want to be too controversial on a very serious topic, but someone on the news just basically said regarding the Madeiline McCann case

'This case is a high-profile case, it only makes sense for the Home Office to directly fund the investigation'

That sounds a bit wrong to me, surely every case should be taken on it's merits, regardless of the amount of focus on it from the media and public?

 

[Empty]

there has to be some kind of automatic 1 year extension clause in there somewhere

 

[Walshy]

Independent are saying that Southampton have confirmed their interest in Victor Wanyama, Leandro Damiao and Ever Banega.

No disrespect to Southampton, as I really like them as a club but why aren't any bigger teams sniffing around these players? Especially Banega, he is absolutely quality.

Also, if they are getting Banega and Wanyama, where does that leave Schneiderlin? I really rate him aswell.

Newcastle have pulled out of trying for Kone. Thank fuck.

 

[Plasma]

Wenger should never be given money again.

Why? Higuain is a quality player.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Arsenal need a Zamparini.

To buy half of South Americas youth instead of half of France?

 

[Salvadora]

From what I've heard, Higuain is only on £100,000 p/w.

Perhaps he will be rewarded with a bigger contract if he does the job.

Why? Higuain is a quality player.

Because it puts us over the barrel in two years time.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Why? Higuain is a quality player.

A 3 year starting contract gives him the chance to have you by the balls as early as 2015

 

[Zabojnik]

Seriously, either Higuian is gone in 2 years for £20m or less, or Arsenal give him a massive contract.

Isn't his contract going to be pretty massive as it is? Last I heard it was 7,5M€ / year. Seems too high though.

 

[LeBoef]

Why? Higuain is a quality player.

Yeah, why?

 

[Yen]

Isn't his contract going to be pretty massive as it is? Last I heard it was 7,5M€ / year. Seems too high though.

Yep, he's bound to be their highest paid player.

I used to like your opinions on music, I'm not sure where to go in my life now.

Bad songs on Whatever People Say I Am:

 

[Yen]

I don't even feel any schadenfreude anymore, just sadness at what's happened to Torres.

 

[Lightning]

Because it puts us over the barrel in two years time.

Contracts don't mean shit anyway. Look at Higuain force himself out of Madrid regardless of contract. If he wants to leave our club he will regardless what the contract length is.

 

[Yurt]

This guy camped outside our stadium for ONE DAY to get a season ticket

The club gave him a free shirt with his name on it.

You can find his video on youtube.

 

[Empty]

torres has nearly played more matches for chelsea than liverpool ?!

fucking hell time flies

 

[Vivalaraza]

I think it's a risk worth taking anyway.

 

[Plasma]

Because it puts us over the barrel in two years time.

I'm sure even if we had him tied down to a five year deal and he wanted to leave in two years time he'd be able to force through a move.

I'm just happy to sign him right now, I'm sure if he does well at the end of this season we'll hand him an extension with a pay rise.

 

[oyoshimaru]

One day? I was expecting one week, one day is nothing.

 

[pappe]

Higuain will move to Barca in 2 yrs to have remuntada on Real. Arsenal are just a stepping stone for him.

 

[Yurt]

One day? I was expecting one week, one day is nothing.

It's still quite impressive! I can't imagine myself doing something like this.

 

[dc89]

I need to try me some.

 

[Broder Salsa]

I don't even feel any schadenfreude anymore, just sadness at what's happened to Torres.

In two years he has won : Golden boot winners at the euros 2012 (and winner of the tournament) and confed this year. Champions league win. Europa League win. FA Cup win. He's our football GOD

 

[Lunchbox]

I don't even feel any schadenfreude anymore, just sadness at what's happened to Torres.

yeah, poor fernando. he's missing out on all the 7th place finishes of the world

 

[Carbonox]

The fuck is this? Looks like some Albanian coke from Aldi.

yeah, poor fernando. he's missing out on all the 7th place finishes of the world

:lol :lol yessss

 

[Salvadora]

Contracts don't mean shit anyway. Look at Higuain force himself out of Madrid regardless of contract. If he wants to leave our club he will regardless what the contract length is.

That's an entirely different situation, though.

Sure he could probably force a move through regardless of the contract length, but it weakens our position greatly.

haha I know, just that he's gone from the best striker in the world to decent-to-good.

 

[Broder Salsa]

I have become lunchbox.

haha I know, just that he's gone from the best striker in the world to decent-to-good.

Was also obviously kidding. But I do think inside his head he's probably still great.

Bad songs on Whatever People Say I Am:

I've never listened to a full Arctic Monkeys album tbf

Gonna carry on listening to a classic album a night next week, starting with whichever Pink Floyd album came after Dark Side of the Moon

I don't even feel any schadenfreude anymore, just sadness at what's happened to Torres.

Something that always amazes me is the fact that no two of his Liverpool goals were the same. Insane variety in his scoring for us.

I miss 07/08 Torres I don't mind admitting. He was incredible. And he was still bloody good between injuries up until 2010

 

[Yurt]

yeah, poor fernando. he's missing out on all the 7th place finishes of the world

He got what he wanted but lost what he had.

 

[justjohn]

From what I've heard, Higuain is only on £100,000 p/w.

Because it puts us over the barrel in two years time.

if he does well, bigger clubs will come in for him and he'll be off.

 

[Peco]

Come to Milan, Nando.

We'll treat you good.

brilliant post.

What were we supposed to do then, not sign him?

We got 24m for RVP and Nasri in their last year as well. If it comes to it we are more likely to get our money back than not should he not extend.
