Highly rated Argentina midfielder Gago should have no trouble finding a new home
Let´s sign him! :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:
Done deal, according to TalkShit and BogBlog..

They have a quote from a source who once watched a Sunday league football match, saying "Gago is a player who belongs to a team, somewhere" and when asked, do Arsenal exist?, apparently he/she replied, "Yes."

Sounds good to me...

Scrap the beer offer mate.......

21 minutes ago.......

Fernando Gago has stated that he won’t be leaving Real Madrid this summer, having held talks with coach Jose Mourinho and general manager Jorge Valdano to ascertain his role in the side.

The Argentine midfielder isn’t expected to pin down a starting berth under the new Portuguese coach, but he is happy to stay and fight for his place at the Bernabeu.

“I'm going to stay in Madrid this year,â€

ARSENAL are monitoring France Under-21 international striker Emmanuel Riviere to see if he is capable of following in the footsteps of childhood idol Thierry Henry.

Riviere is one of the most highly-rated young players in France after saving St Etienne from relegation with eight goals in just 19 starts last season.

The 20-year-old forward, who was born on the Caribbean island of Martinique, homeland of Henry's mother, has one year left on his contract and is desperate to join the Gunners.

"Arsenal would really be the jewel in the crown for me," said Riviere. "They play a fast-moving, attacking style of football, and they're always shooting on goal.

"It's fantastic.

"I respect Thierry Henry for who he is, he has always inspired me."

Arsenal face competition from Lyon, Marseille and Juventus for the £5million-rated youngster.

We have fuck all chance of getting Given! If anyone gets him it will be Celtic



MANCHESTER CITY have blocked Shay Given from leaving Eastlands.

The dramatic move by City will leave the Republic of Ireland keeper fuming and disappoint the three clubs chasing him.

Given, 34, is desperate for first-team football and Celtic were keen to take him on a loan deal immediately, leading the hunt ahead of Fulham and Arsenal.

But the SPL giants will have to wait until the next window for Given, whose exit is being blocked by Brian Marwood, the City wheeeler-dealer who insists he cannot move anywhere.

Friends of the Irishman say he will ‘explode’ at the news and cause City the kind of major headaches they suffered from Craig Bellamy and Stephen Ireland.

Celtic boss Neil Lennon is desperate to get Given on board and the Parkhead club know the former Newcastle star is interested in a move.

Given is a Celtic fan, played for the club as a kid and has a Glasgow-born wife.

He was hoping to have the final say in the move and there was optimism that he would head over the border.

But now Given faces a few months of watching England No.1 Joe Hart perform before looking at his position again in the New Year.

Given made no secret of his interest in moving out, but City feel they are better with him in their squad and have turned down several approaches for potential replacement goalkeepers.

It is a crushing blow for Given, but there is little he can do and he will just have to knuckle down and pray City have a change of heart after Christmas.

Arsene Wenger gives up his summer-long pursuit of Fulham keeper Mark Schwarzer
Aug 21 2010 By Dean Jones, The People
Arsene Wenger is ready to give up on signing keeper Mark Schwarzer.

The Gunners have gone back to Fulham with a £2million offer, the same bid they made when Roy Hodgson was in charge.

New Fulham boss Mark Hughes is desperate to keep Schwarzer, though, and may get his wish.

Wenger said: “We will never force anybody to sell a player. If we make an offer, the club says yes or no. It may not be enough, but when another regime comes in, you make an offer that is the same.â€

I just hope AW doesn't come out saying that we did not concede any goals yesterday so he doesn't see the need for a CB or GK. The old "spending money isn't always the answer" bit of crap. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Dudek would make sense - after all, we seem to have a thing for Polish 'keepers at the moment :?
