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.

Marca haven't confirmed anything :lol:

They're saying "according to foxsport" so it's nothing we didn't know already.

It's probably true, but as always, the internet merry-go-round is picking up the same story and spreading it everywhere on the back of the same source. I'm almost expecting an "exclusive" from Goal.com and a "sensational scoop" from elsewhere basically regurgitating the exact same story (they may even add bells and whistles to it, and say he's just logged on to BA and bought a one way ticket to Heathrow :roll: :lol: :| )

That is the same story everyone has today with the quotes from his old man - it's not confirmed mate.

Wasn't it Marca along with AS - two of Spain's most reputable papers - who claimed that terms had been agreed and it was just a case of the fee being finalised a fortnight ago?

Well I guess I used the wrong word "confirmed" :)

But now DM says "Higuain, who has been told by Real Madrid that he is free to leave, will fly into London on Thursday evening for final talks."

He's on the way :) :lol: :lol: :mrgreen:

That prick Daniel Levy will probably be hanging about in the arrivals with a "Mr. Higuain" hand written sign like a cab driver ready to try and kidnap him.

As for Bendtner, he's like a turd that won't flush.

Obviously many disagree as they do about Wilshere as a bulldog striker but maybe I am the only one that sees him potentially matching Aguero, Tevez et al in style. Those that feel he isn't fast enough don't understand pace is only relevant for a certain type of striker.
Anyway
Really?

I think you will find that most posters here know a number 10 does not have to be the fastest on his feet, but does need a quick brain.
But a number 9 type striker without pace?
Cannot see many ways how such a player can be top class in today's game, unless it is a scenario where he is tall and very consistent with headers and the whole team is set up to provide crosses to him, and even that is not very common in the English game any more.

It's all true; it's part of AW's new 2-1-6 formation. If we can't defend we might as well try and score a shedload.

Higuain apparently failed his medical at Arsenal because he developed asthma due to the dust in Arsenal's trophy cabinet.
