    Wenger has influence, it shouldn't haven gotten this far, I'm sure players love to pay at Arsenal but at a certain point everyone needs trophies to be satisfied, he hasnt really done much in the past few years to get closer to obtaining some, he's gotten farther away and the players know that. If you are a world class player and are over 26 years old why would go to Arsenal? Unless you are being developed by Arsene himself, I don't know why any truly great player would go there.

    And I consider Santi Cazorla an amazing player but I'm talking about the top 25-30 guys in the world here.

    Cazorla is probably amongst the 15 best midfielders in the world.

    Wenger has apparently said we wont be signing another striker.

    So looking like Giroud is main striker with Chamakh/Podolski as backup and Walcott if we're desperate :?

    Edit: actually saying that. He would say that. Not like we're going to let the world know we're in the market with 24m to spend.

    wearethenorthbank has said we've already got targets lined up for when RvP goes.

    ''Darren ‏@DarrenArsenal1
    Arsenal net spend,is what £5m, so that makes circa £60m spare cash AT LEAST. Take buffer away, and we have £30m to spend.Will they spend it?''

    Interesting. Could get a quality replacement for RvP if the board are willing to give the funds.

    If Giroud can get a decent return of goals I don't think that team is worse.

    Bit light in midfield defensively but that's assuming Songs leaves too and we don't replace either.

    But yeah I agree. If Giroud can do well then he'll get the goals with that attacking talent behind him. They were all linking up well against Koln.

    M'Vila & Llorente would probably be the best available (If Song goes).

    We should get a defensive midfielder and a left-back with the available money. I'm not concerned at all about Giroud replacing van Persie. He's a quality player and I think he'll score plenty.

    Spanish papers, as well as talksports(?) are saying that Llorente could be Van Persie's replacement. They have to offer more than Juve though.

    The money would be better spent on a left-back.

    Oxlade - Podolski - Walcott
    Cazorla
    Wilshere Arteta
    Gibbs Mertesacker Koscielny Sagna
    Szczesny

    I would rather play that if we lost Song too. Podolski is better in the middle.

    Not a fan but he's an upgrade to Park and Chamakh.

    We should get Toulalan/Belhanda and Tremoulinas/Monreal. shifty

    Malaga would sell Toulalan and Monreal at a decent price. Every player in Malaga wants out right now. Demichelis offered himself to River Plate, but they said they don't want him Laughing

    Fuck this shit, kyro is creaming I bet.

    RVP leaving was to be expected, fuck him for moving to another Prem club though.

    £24 aren't bad, would be happy if it was invested in Mirallas and Monreal.

    Let's hope last season was his best one, not hoping for injuries but let's just say I won't pee my pants everytime he plays for the Netherlands...

    Well they said a minimum of 20M before, apparently, so I would take a gander at 20M + some sort of fee for being Manchester United and not Juventus shifty Seen 22, 23 and 24M so far, so maybe 20M plus clauses?

    After an hour of depression, I feel good again. I just really hope we replace Song early and not on deadline day. Well, actually I'd prefer it if we kept Song but that's looking unlikely. lool
