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.

If its one or the other I too would prefer Carvalho but we really should be getting both of them.

If Khedira is available then we're not in that race if his rumoured wage demands are to be believed. I wouldn't be surprised if we don't bring in anyone else significant and instead convert Peanut Head/Weelchair.

Another CB is pressing as Vermaelen looks to be off too.

Topgoon is confused, who is peanut head ?

Topgoon also notes that Valbuena has decided to chase the Russian rouble by signing for Dynamo Moscow on a 3 year deal. We ddn't want him or need him but Topgoon believes he can do better than playing in freezing cold temps in front of racist tw*ts.

Topgoon would like to be enthusiastic about this possible signing but 2 things get in the way, one Fox are full of sh*t, quelle supris for a |Murdoch vehicle and two I am not 100% sure Carvalho is the type of defensive midfielder we really need. But 9/10 to Arsene if true as it would mean he really was just being tight till we could afford it.....Topgoon reserves the right for a bit of cynicism.
