I reckon Fergie will sign Clyne from palace on a free, Hopefully Kagawa for around £12m, a surprise striker, perhaps del piero, then hopefully a central midfielder

Wating that long would also have attracted a lot of the big guns. Hardly anyone who can accomodate him would turn down 5m.

We do need a striker. I'd rather we took someone like Steven Fletcher from Wolves. Good in the air and decent finisher, would probably fit in well w/ Larsson and McClean.

Aren't you being linked with Llorente?

Even if he is fully clear, there will be fitness issues and lack of form because he would have been away from football for nearly a year. News is Wilshere will have another minor surgery on his left knee this time. God, the poor lad never seems to recover.

Never mind, I don't think van Persie will stay--unless Wenger forces him to stay and see out his contract. The only other way van Persie stays is if he ends up being injured in the Euros.

Not sure what happened on the M'Vila deal. We were set to sign him, but it seems... I just hope we sign him.

Rosicky on the right, ugh. I hope not. Theo should retain his place.

M'Vila deal is apparently to be announced after Rennes finish their season, next week. A fair amount of good people saying it's done, although I don't know. We'll see.

I'd rather I wait to see how this summer pans out before I post any XIs, as this RvP thing will go on til after the EUROs. It was never going to be cleared up in that '4 day deadline' bullshit the Mirror printed. I think he'll stay on, but if he doesn't then the window changes for us, and in a bad way at that. We either keep him and send a negative message to the rest of the squad that we have a wantaway captain (ala Cesc) or we sell him while we can make some decent money. Only thing is, that money has to be re-invested. Which it probably won't. A good summer would be bringing in 3 or 4 quality players, clearing out the wage absorbers and building. If we get 3rd next year, it's a good building block, as we can add next year as well. As it has been for the past 7 years, it's still about building. Keeping quality & adding quality. We never seem to do it in the same window.

That source was also the one that 'broke' Hazard > Arsenal & Gervinho > City last year. And that was when everyone knew Gervinho had signed for Arsenal. In principle it makes sense why City'd go for him, but the source is pretty much bollocks.


Forgot about DeeCee, what happened to us finishing outside the top 6 :roy

Rumours: According to Marca, Man Utd have signed Eden Hazard & are very close to signing Kagawa

So Kagawa to Arsenal and Hazard to City then

nah Marca saw Hazard saying he was going to manchester, and they just assume Manchester is United. Kagawa wont sign yet, he has just gone on international duty with Japan, and that goes on till the 12th of June, so if anything happens it will probably be after that

Man Utd news: Hazard signs!

On van Persie--well, it seems he's waiting for Barcelona/Madrid to come for him. I can see him going to City now because Juve won't be able to match City's offer and I don't think the Spanish clubs will come for him. Same scenario as Mr. Ballon d'Or ala Nasri.

I don't care if van Persie leaves. Don't want to keep players such as van Persie in the team. We saw that with Cesc. This whole thing looks Nasri-esque to me. If he doesn't want to sign, fuck him off.

We can get Lavezzi for a relatively cheaper price since Napoli are out of the CL. Arsenal is a top destination for most players despite what is going on internally. If City come up with a 30 million bid, I'd say sell van Persie UNLESS he is interested in staying.

We already have Podolski and with Poldi up top; Lavezzi on the right--we're as good as ever. This whole "replacing" thing seems to be a dream at Arsenal though. This is Arsenal... But it's about time we really sent a message. van Persie is just a player. Nothing more. We are soon becoming a feeder club and we have to stop this act of losing one major player every year now.

Thinking about it, Lavezzi is perfect for us. He can play as a forward; as a winger, and behind the striker. Plus, he would come for 20 million, which isn't high considering the market, but unimaginable considering Wenger and the board.

Looks like all reports are saying that Hazard will make his decision on Monday. Still think this could go either way at the min.
