If i remember rightly after we picnhed Park from Lille they vowed never to deal with us again sop what little chance we had of attracting Hazard is blown out by the refusal of Lille now

I would have thought we'd be in their good books forever having saved them from Park

Didn't M'Vila state that he would make a statement today on his future ?

Would sign him in a heartbeat for Arsenal if the price was reasonable but given that he cost them 50m his value would have to have depreciated massively for wenger to be interested in him :roll:
Expect a move to madrid in part exchange for higuain (wouldnt have signed for athletico's rivals a few years ago but def would now) or to barca in exchange for david villa - one thing is for certain, the chavs wont sell a top player without replacing him properly unlike some clubs :cry: :cry: :oops: :oops:
Would love to see him play for us

Didn't he say "after the season"? I know the season has finished but he didn't specify when after the season.

I posted this the other day. A report stating that Chelsea would listen to offers of £15M+ for Torres.

Stick a couple of million more on for a realistic value but given that it's another Premier league club I'm sure Chelsea would only sell to us for nearer £25M. Even at that price I would take him.

Yeah I read it wrong. This is what he reportedly stated.


"I'll make my decision after the game against Dijon [on Sunday]," M’Vila told RMC.

Won't be glued to the pooter so :D

Would love him to sign as I think he is the real deal.

Ah! I see you too have learnt not to read between the lines. Many years of practice with Wenger quotes.

Taken from football365:
However, mysteriously missing from their piece (but included in the original interview, helpfully linked to from the Beeb site) was the next line from Nando: "But in the end I could participate and offer the team something. I'm really happy."

So more media shit

There's no chance Nando will end up at Blackburn - the Venkys will have him smothered in Piri Piri. Still King Jay will be happy :D

Maybe the rumour Gooner Ed heard about us reneging on personal terms is true?
