Defence is about more than one man obviously but that's 24 conceded already this season by the supposed world class Gary Cahill. :oops:

Hope we stay well clear in January.

I think Moyes would be a decent option for you tbh. Although you'd obviously hope there would be better alternatives around, I reckon he'd do a good job. Coyle isnt good enough for Arsenal, but I feel a bit sorry for him in a way that he has had a very, very hard start to the season and has lost 2 key players to long term injuries that will keep them out for most of the season, clubs like Bolton cant afford to lose 2 key players tbh, I think they'll go down

Depends which one will be available in 14 years time.

strange post.

Firstly, how many people are saying Cahill is world class?? :? that's not a comment I recall coming across in the press, and it's probably not even said much on here either, is it?? - or is it?? :shock: Anyway, I'm sure you're right or you wouldn't have written it... I just haven't come across that myself, that's all.

Also, if you don't rate Cahill then fine, but to hope we stay well away from him just because Bolton are shit and concede goals is a tad misguided perhaps. I just hope the Arsenal scouts are basing their assessment on something more concrete than that! :oops: :lol:

I think Wenger's £7m valuation of him isn't looking all that ridiculous right about now.

Agreed- I said on the "Wenger bids £6m for Cahill" thread that I thought 17m was a joke and 10m was nearer to being an accurate reflection of his worth, and that if Wengers bid was £6m plus add ons it could actually be a pretty fair deal for Bolton and I still stand by that.

Cahill cant be blamed for Bolton conceding a lot of goals (his defensive colleagues may be shit, the system might just not be working) but he is a part of the unit and so he needs to accept a share of the responsibility. He's a good defender and would do well for Arsenal, but despite the media hyping him up, he is not some world class superstar in the making, and £17m for a lad in the last year of his contract when he really isnt proven is ridiculous
