I know reus would be your traditional target man striker but his pace, movement and shooting ability would be excellent alongside sanchez The man is meant to have a reasonable buy out clause so why are we not testing him and Dortmund out ? The answer is that le cock see's Giroud as his no.1 centre forward and that he has Campbell to back him up so we will NOT buy another striker and will pay the price as a result.

Hernandez is very quick, certainly not lacking in the pace department - though he's not Walcott.

Arsenal have had a €30million (£23.7m) bid for Sporting Lisbon midfielder William Carvalho rejected, according to O Jogo. Sami Khedira and Morgan Schneiderlin have been linked with moves to Arsenal, but it now appears Carvalho's name could also be on Arsene Wenger's list of targets. The Portugal international has previously been linked with Manchester United and Juventus, with Sporting reportedly wanting the majority of Carvalho's £37m release clause before agreeing to sell.
Don't know much about him, anyone have an idea if he's a good prospect?

Sky Sports sources understand that former Chelsea striker Salomon Kalou is keen to return to the Premier League this summer. Kalou scored 16 goals for Lille last season, and has been linked with the likes of Monaco, Fenerbahce and Galatasaray. However, it is understood Kalou would prefer to come back to England, with Liverpool and Tottenham thought to be monitoring his situation.

Don't know a whole lot about him myself tbh but I do know that he has a good rep and seems to be always linked to big money transfers - that being said no big club has actually comes in for him so how much of those rumours are genuine I don't know. I remember a few years ago that defour guy from Belgium was meant to be a top class cm in the making but he is yet to really hit the big time so maybe carvalho will be the same ?
