Mata

[Slinky Skills]

Her hasn't signed for anyone yet, don't give up chaps!

I will be devasted if we don't at least make a bid for him.

Conflicting reports in Spain. They're saying that there was a clause in Mata's contract which meant before 31 July he could've been purchased outright with a bid of 25m. Alas, now that the date has passed, Valencia can negotiate the deal as a normal transfer. If true it wouldn't surprise me if Wenger didn't put the cash on the table.

Llorente, Valencia's president has again denied receiving concrete offers.

News about Mata coming soon and not very possitive for Arsenal fans

Spurs or us?

[krazykeith]

Yep.

Balague claims everything is agreed for Mata to join Arsenal.

I guess we'll all find out very soon if we miss out or "dodge" the bullet.

It seems we were never after him anyways...

where did he claim this????
link???

@GuillemBalague
Mata's clause to sign player cheaper (20-23m euros) finished yesterday. Clubs agreed fee, player happy to go but money didnt arrive...

Check his twitter account.

Were we though? I don't think we were - too busy negotiating the extortionate fee for Downing.

@GuillemBalague
Spurs tried to get him but he only wanted to go to Arsenal or Barcelona. Without Cesc money, Arsenal didnt want 2 pay.Now he costs 60m euros

[dww]

So it looks like we wouldn't have got him no matter what. I think people are being unreasonably critical of our transfer dealings.

Check his twitter account.

checked it, and when you posted yesterday he had nothing up regarding agreement, apart from a tweet at 1.30pm today

#AFC think they've secured Mata,Nasri to stay and Cesc's saga to drag on for a bit (in Spanish) http://t.co/FXEk5x4

Only a superoffer of 30m euros plus will get him but now the most likely scenario is a new contract with Valencia

[krazykeith]
