The Summer 2014 TRANSFER THREAD

[Block93]

Normally it's February/March time when it all goes tits up with injuries, but it's still effing August! Just have to hope that behind the scenes there's stuff going on, but I am not convinced. Could be a long season.

[mcdowell42]

Here's the scenario, Wenger tells us Giroud will be out for 2/3 weeks only,so we don't need to buy another striker cos we have sanogo ,Campbell and Sanchez and Walcott can play as our main striker.

Transfer window closes ,no sign of Giroud coming back Wenger keeps telling us 2/3weeks then later tells us Giroud has had a setback and will be another 2/3 weeks which will stretch into 3/4 months.

Repeat this scenario for other injured players and that makes it the same as every other season for the last 3/4 years.

Giroud out for 3 months , Sanchez "not physically ready" , Walcott still injured , Podolski being sold, Sanogo being shit. Wenger get the cheque book out you useless french fuck!

Last I heard Wenger said Walcott would supposedly be back in full training by the end of August.

Yup! and so that means we'll get to see him play (maybe) in November.

I Concur.

I see we are desperately trying to offload Podolski as the transfer deadline beckons but its hard to get 10 million quid for him and then for the new club to pick up his 100k a week wages !

If we don't beat Besiktas we will not only sell him but others too and there will be no-one coming in !

I don't think Arsenal are desperate to get rid of him at all. Sounds like clubs have been in touch about his availability and by the sounds of it, want him on loan. If Wenger allowed him to go out on loan without getting in additional bodies then it would be absolute suicide. Giroud's injury could be timely...we'll find out.

Still just under a week of the window left. I'm not clinging to any real hope of another late star signing but I do expect another centre back at the absolute least. I just hope it doesn't go right to the wire and we're offering Tal Ben Haim a 2 year deal in desperation.

Only an arsenal player could be out 3 months due to this

Looked nothing at the time, thought he was acting a bit to run down the clock. Hope we don't get Wellbeck .

This is what it says on L'Equipe website as part of the article about Giroud,

Dans le viseur des Londoniens se trouvent notamment Danny Welbeck (Manchester United), Loïc Rémy (Queens Park Rangers), Edinson Cavani (PSG) ou encore Falcao (Monaco). Mais tous coûtent déjà très cher quand ils ne sont pas tout simplement bloqués par leurs clubs actuels.

In the sights of the Londoners are found notably Danny Welbeck, Loic Remy, Edinson Cavani or even Falcao. But all of them are very expensive even if they are not simply blocked by their current clubs.

The tweet must have been written by a tabloid headline writer.

Not True I know ...BUT If it was then someone should have damaged Giroud sooner....

Cavani is too old to be bought as a ain striker now...what is he 32yrs???

[Arsenal Till I Die]

I would actually rather have Campbell upfront all year than have Welbeck anywhere near Arsenal.

He is absolutely shite.
