SUMMER TRANSFERS - Your thoughts on who did and did not sign

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Looks like Mancini is gone. Moneybags are going to get Pelligrini. Mourning will end up with Chelski.

According to the French press Falcao is going to Monaco for €60m but there is a buy out clause for Madrid to buy him in January! The world's gone mad.

Yah. Wan*er will be there for next season even without CL. We are in need of a change. So many teams with new manager next year except us.

Yet, we're still stuck with fucking Wenger.... AKB's call it loyalty, I call it happy to coin in 7.5 million a year to add to his 29million personal wealth for what? :roll: :roll:

In Arsene's defence that accolade goes to Dario Gradi......but I think I know what you might be getting at :D

Just as with the transfer saga surrounding Stevan Jovetic from Fiorentina, the main rivals to Arsenal in the deal are the Italian champions Juventus. Although personal terms and transfer fees are apparently agreed, the deal could still collapse if Arsenal fail to finish in the top four, giving our next two games even more importance.

Higuain has been at Madrid for over six years, scoring 120 goals and providing 45 assists in his 262 games. He scored their equaliser last night against Espanyol, but it was not enough to keep Barcelona from being crowned Spanish champions. The striker was nearly sold last summer, but his hard work and form convinced Jose Mourinho to keep him and he has repaid that faith by scoring 17 times this season, which is better than his main rival at the club Karim Benzema.


Higuain is also an integral part of the Argentinean national team and has a great record of 19 goals in 32 games for them. There is no confirmation of this from either club, but the Spanish media seem convinced, so hopefully there is something in it
Load of bollox. He's off to Juventus.
