2010/2011 Transfer Thread

No, I meant Ahem.......as in do you remember what I told you a few weeks back?

To be fair, it is City, so if they're offering 25m, he's worth about 12m.. :p

Let's just remember, City paid 24m for Lescot.. Lol.
 
Avram Grant resigned from Pompey, wonder if he will go to West Ham and whip Mc Carthy into shape :P
 
lol, and 30m with a 140k per week salary for adebayor :)
 
Barca rejects Chelsea’s €20m bid for Yaya Toure​

Despite the unrest, Barca are not willing to let the Ivorian defensive midfielder leave on the cheap, and rejected Chelsea’s bid and will not sell for less than €25m.

Toure has been linked with a move to Arsenal as part of a deal to take Cesc Fabregas back to the Nou Camp, but his agent has denied that Toure was heading to North London by saying ‘bigger clubs’ were interested in his client

Ouch!
 
Are we supposed to be offended by some unknown agents opinion? :)

Its probably more a case of Arsenal not being interested in his player, we have Song ;)

I think the truth of the matter is that Barca don't want his client anymore - especially if Cesc leaves Arsenal. It is also a probability that Arsenal do not want Yaya - as stated previously, he is earning more than Cesc currently does at Arsenal. Whatever happens with Cesc, I can't see any Barca players joining Arsenal for one reason or another.

But this constant merry-go-round with Yaya Toure and Sebastian Frey every season is become old now. Will Filipe Melo become the new Yaya Toure/Seb Frey of Arsenal's silly seasons for the next few years?!

Absolutely - Song is a much better option than Toure - I just do not see a place for Toure at Arsenal at all. He is not even better than Diaby and Diaby is cr*p. We don't take Barca's has beens, they take ours :) (Hleb, Henry)

Toure is a trillion times better than Song.

Word in the press is that he has spoken to Barcelona about leaving and doesnt want to be involved in any swop deal with Cesc because he believes Arsenal are not a big club.

Glad Merida got out of Arsenal. He will do well at Atletico.

Seems like our youth academy is being targeted once again.

Chelsea & Arsenal To Step Up Pursuit Of Barcelona Youngster Gai Assulin - Report​

Chelsea and Arsenal are both interested in signing Israeli starlet Gai Assulin from Barcelona, according to a report from Spanish daily Sport.

The attacking midfielder made his debut for his national team at the age of 16 and has been tipped for a major future on the world stage.

However, first team opportunities at Camp Nou have become limited and the 19-year-old's contract is set to expire soon, making him available on a free transfer.

Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti is keen to add fresh legs to an ageing midfield at Stamford Bridge, whilst the Gunners had been linked with the player earlier in the season

This kid is going to be something special one day.

He may be better - don't know about the trillion times thing, but that's the exaggeration we get with you - so fine. I think with Song, he has age on his side and will only get better. Judging from the progress he has made in the last 18 months, I would say he is above where Yaya was when he was at Monaco and Olympiakos.

Having said that Yaya is a very competitive and combative midfielder who would do well in the EPL, but I don't think we need him as Diaby is a Wenger favourite and again, if being dumb enough is being 'big enough', then we're not that big to pay the wages he reportedly wants. I also think Wenger having had the chance to sign him from Beveren all those years ago for next to nothing, won't fork out to get him now, when he had many chances in the past.

I can't find a source, but I do recall AW saying it had something to do with Yaya's stamina for the English game - something along the lines of he wouldn't move for him due to the fact that he had 'no special stamina to play in england' - and he played Eboue there instead at the start of 2008/9.

And finally, not a single summer since late 1998 have we (Arsenal) not been linked with Sebastian Frey!

Various tabloids in Europe 'understand' we've (Arsenal) 'been alerted' to the fact that Frey wants out of Florence. So, I guess since we're (Arsenal) looking for a keeper, we're (Arsenal, again) definitely in for him!

OMG!

-sigh-
