Ryan Babel-Whats going on?

Post by donaldo »

Two weeks ago Ryan Babel said he wouldn"t be joining Arsenal this summer but would sign for us the following year.Now reports say Liverpool have made a bid of £6.5 million and a deal is close.Why did he say he would be joining us next year and why if he is available now why dont we snap him up before the scouscers get him. Babel is a major talent and £6.5 million is a steal.

It doesnt seem like Arsene is interested in Babel. It has only been press reports where he was linked to us, Babel himself said there has been no offer from Arsenal. Maybe thats why he said that it wont happen this year. And if Liverpool are interested I dont see why he will not want to go. Its not his fault, its our's, given that we wanted the player. Dont know whats going on at the club.

Only bonus is if scousers sign Babel they apparently won't be after Quaresma then saying that neither will we!
