A lot of papers/sites are running with this Nasri to United thing but I personally can't see it happening. I would prefer us to get Modric but that's seem very unlikely with his price tag. We do need another central midfielder in any event.

Im so conflicted. You refer to Man U as 'we' and your location probably means you support India in cricket...but you have Noel Gallagher in your avatar....

Welcome to CW :dry:

Just wanted to mention Mike Doyle's passing - us oldies will remember him from the 1970s and shudder at the thought of 64 being any sort of age to call it a day.
Saw his obit in the paper today. Not quite old enough to remember him in his pomp, but very sad news all the same.

Obituary hinted (well, baldly stated, actually) about his probs with the demon drink. Liver failure in the end, poor chap.

Meanwhile, Connor Wickham to Sunderland? WTF? Kid's waaaaay too good for them. Cannot believe that one of the bigger boys didn't step up for him. At £9m (rising to a max of £12.5) he's a steal.

If he stays fit he'll play for England by the end of the season. Has everything. I've been banging his drum for a while and hopefully people will see what the fuss is about now he's in the Prem.

I can see what people see in Wickham but it's hardly like he's got an incredible scoring record is it?

Anyway, Clichy and Nasri's agent had a meeting with City today supposedly.

Was injured for first half of the season and spent a large part of the remainder on the wing.

So much more to his game than goals too.

Like Cesc for a discount fee? Heh, meanwhile no-one will touch Denilson, Diaby, Bendtner or Rosicky with barge poles. Need to replace three starters and beef up the defence quickly with the CL qualifiers and a brutal fixture list in August. Think this is the season where the matchday fans turn nasty, we're not finishing top 4.h

All is well, Sky Sports News just told me we've officially opened talks with Oxlade-Chamberlain. Yay.

Because I'm dyslexic and read it as 'Do we', not 'We do'.

Facepalm for me please......


Mehul, I do apologise

I must be the only Arsenal fan not excited by this Gervinho guy signing for us? Seriously, he has Adebayor written all over him. Just can't shake the feeling.h
