    Tiny Frenchman Marvin Martin sounds like our main target at the moment.

    Durability might be a very underrated trait for this squad :cheers:

    Rather have a Ferrari for 20 games than a Ford for 40.

    Re: Eleventh hour transfer thread (breaking news on new players)

    Fair enough

    We've had a few bomb signings for sure. Rosicky & Arshavin to name a few. Seemed like big deals at the time but really haven't panned out.

    AA's goal against Barca last season will remain in the memory, though.

    Bid for Xherdan Shaqiri ruled out as Basel claims there has been no contact.

    Re: Eleventh hour transfer thread (breaking news on new players)

    As usual the other North London club is riding the shit out of our coattails, trying to sign all the players we're linked with. Benny and Cahill linked. Did you hear they also inquired about Kaka? Knaves, the lot of them.

    Pat Rice streaking by at the end of this video always makes me giggle.

    Re: Eleventh hour transfer thread (breaking news on new players)

    I think our top target right now is Fiorentina's Vargas. Great player.

    Re: Eleventh hour transfer thread (breaking news on new players)

    ^ What about Santos? Seems to rule out a move for Vargas unless you think he can play anywhere along the left.

    Never mind, seems he has been playing on the attacking end for the last while.

    Re: Eleventh hour transfer thread (breaking news on new players)

    Yeah, he'll be a creative winger, I believe. Still leaving all the creative juices to Wilshere, it seems.

    Evening Standard are saying that we've had a bid of £25m accepted for Rennes' M'Vila. I will be so excited if this is true. He plays like a young Essien. Box-to-box holding midfielder (much like Yaya).

    Teenage striker M'Baye Niang linked.

    Rosicky pondering a move to Wolfsburg.

    Re: Eleventh hour transfer thread (breaking news on new players)

    Bendtner claims he has 2 or 3 options. Djourou apparently given 30 hours to leave the club.

    Re: Eleventh hour transfer thread (breaking news on new players)

    Wenger not giving up on Eden Hazard despite Lille's insistence that they won't sell and Hazard's declaration that he won't move.

    Wenger considering a double-swoop for M'Vila and Gourcuff.

    Re: Eleventh hour transfer thread (breaking news on new players)

    I don't believe anything the Bendtners say at this point.

    Didn't expect Djourou to leave but I suppose he sees the writing on the wall--the next two/three years are booked with the German-Belgian connection.

    Re: Eleventh hour transfer thread (breaking news on new players)

    Bendtner may remain with the team resulting in a loan spell for Chamakh. Unexpected.
