The Summer 2014 TRANSFER THREAD

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.

Part of me wants to say Cavani isn't c.......

But I promised that saying would be retired when Alexis signed :D

In 1989 I trust - what does he say will happen ?

Think we're getting Carvalho and some unknown CB and that would be our lot. Cavani and the likes are just a pipe dream. Wenger has had a change of mind on selling Podolski after Giroud's injury which tells you all you need about his (non) intentions of signing a striker.

I'm afraid to say that I agree with you 100% on that second sentence - the 'don't forget we have 5 players who play there', 'everybody looks for the same positions', blah blah blah, tells me everything we need to know

If he doesn't sign a CB then he goes back on his word that he definitely would if Vermaelen was sold.

As for Carvalho - is that likely? Isn't he one of the most sought after talents around?

It's heartbreaking to see 1989 having all the optimism sucked out of him.


By the way carvahlo isn't coming

Ricardo Carvalho might though. Wenger has a penchant for a geriatric centre half.
