So someone tweets we have made a 30m bid yet doesn't mention what club hes at what position he plays doesn't mention what nationality he is or what country he plays in.yeah I can see tht being true can't believe anything on twitter

some people will just believe anything

Word in East London is that Arsenal had scouts watching Mo Diamé v Man United. Back fit. £3.5m release clause. Option.

30 million - whatever..

I think that it was just a typo and they missed out a decimal point 3.0 million.

And from the bits I seen of that game last night he didnt exactly impress regardless of a cheap buy out clause

Cannot understand how wenger liked m'vila as a player last season when the price was excessive and this year when the price has gone down he doesnt seem to want him I know he has a reputation but is he gone beyond the point of redemption a la joey barton ? Does wenker believe that he wouldnt be able to guide him back on the right path ? I am a big believer in getting to suss out a guy when you meet him to give you a better idea of his personality, ambitions etc and if wenker did meet him and got bad vibes from the meeting then walk away but as things stand he is what we need and would be reasonably priced and not fcuking off to the acn on a regular basis

Sorry mate but that's such a stupid thing to say.

Reports in Holland and (mostly) Belgium are saying that Arsenal will buy at least one new player this window and it's a holding/defensive midfielder.

I won't bother you with Dutch texts, but to go short:

Arsenal wants to buy Diamé or Biglia. If Diamé is heading for Arsenal, West Ham wil buy Biglia. If Arsenal buys Biglia, Diamé will stay in East London.

Why is it? They are a fucking useless, blind pile of steaming shit, just like the medical team, just like the board, just like Wenger.

We're linked with Diame, who went on a free to West Ham last summer, players like Jageilka, Lescott, Fellani, who we've been linked with in the past, all should have been snapped up before they joined Everton, it certainly isn't a stupid thing to say that our scouts are crap!!

The more likely scenario is that a strategy is agreed upon by the Board, including Kroenke himself, and this is then implemented by the manager, who may or may not make further suggestions to the board. Thinking that Wenger simply controls everyone at Arsenal is plain stupid to put it mildly.

Fair enough comment, but if I was Wenger I would have walked rather than tarnish my reputation and come out with stupid comments like....we have money to spend , we're only looking at super quality ....and so the list goes.
But I suppose selling ones legacy/reputation for about 7.5M a year is fine with Wenger.

Arsenal have been backed in to 9/4 favourites to sign Edinson Cavani now that would be a signing .

i just saw that too...

Cavani is a player I like, says Arsenal boss Wenger
With a record of 25 goals in 24 games this term, the Gunners boss has revealed his interest in the Napoli star, while his faith that Theo Walcott with sign an extension has grown

Rumours in the canteen in work that we are bidding £35 million for Frenchy Le Bartón. Awesome-o!

Now if the news item was that we bid 30 million Columbian Pesos for Cavani, then I would believe it.

I heard that last night and I almost pissed myself laughing - we wouldnt buy a player that expensive no way
