If we're gong for another GK I think we should try and sign Vorm from swansea.

We need a nasty leg breaking defensive/holding mid-fielder though! :evil: :barscarf:

Honestly, our goalkeeping problems have been evident from before Seamen left. Lehmann was an excellent keeper but very unpredictable, always looking for a fight. And a bit crazy. (S'pose all keepers are a bit crazy though)

Nothing wrong with that :box: :lol:

Our main problem is that we only have one good GK. Ideally, we need 2.

Who knows.

But a Reina for Walcott squad would be ghastly business in my opinion.

I like Sterling as a Gervinho relacement (if Gervinho continues his inconsistent form), but not as a swap for Walcott.
It would be like taking the Walcott of three years ago on board and letting an improved Walcott of today go.

Exactly right mate. How many goals has Sterling scored - one? FFS - talking about treading on the same rake over and over again. Why not sell Cazorla and sign Zaha instead, and dump Arteta for whoever the latest Ingerlund U-21 overrated player is in that position

At any point of project Wenger, do we decide that we keep a player that might actually spend his best years at the club?

And while we are at it can we get TA6 and Chippy Brady back too ? FFS can we not just let this guy go already - he wanted to leave us, we let him go so can we please move on and not have this shit about him rejoining us every january until he is old enough to get a pension ? :roll: :oops: :oops: :banghead:

i dont want henry back either, he was past it 4-5 years ago and a joke for wenger to even think about it, if he wants a new striker then go out and but one ffs

He just about justified it last year by grabbing 2 important goals but likelihood of him repeating that this year is slim and besides we need a permanent addition of better calibre. It's just far more convenient for Wenger to pay one striker's wages for a month than a transfer fee and 4 year contract of a new signing.

Torres in January anyone?

When the Chavs sign Falcao he's out of there. Cuts a very miserable figure these days
