Arsenal

Great time to play them.

I can see them going back for Mata, plus Cahill and Scott Parker.

Not sure about Parker mate, doesnt Wenger tend to ditch players once they hit Parker's age? Rather than sign them at that age? Of course they could bring him in, but it would seem to go against Wenger's overall philosophies which, to the frustration of Arsenal fans, he rarely ever seems willing to go against.

He bought Squillaci.

He bought Squillaci.

A player seen very much as a backup option, whereas Parker would be a crucial part of their spine.

He also sold Petit, Vieira, Henry and several others, as they reached that kind of age. There's exceptions to every rule, but in Wenger's case, there's a strong history of getting rid of once key players, once they get to the kind of age that Parker currently is.

He bought Squillaci.

That was the moment of dispair as he had so many injuries and needed CB right away.

I hope he does not go for Javier Martinez. Now he looks like a player we should have signed and I reckon he would be fantastic in this league. Could be a great signing for them IMO.

It would be quite funny if he took the Fabregas/Nasri money, and bought another 3 wingers with it.

Good shout Tee.

Completely forgot about him.

Would be a very good signing for any team.

[Tee]

I hope Wenger has forgotten about him as well, especially with all that money burning a hole in his pocket.

Wenger's likely to take £38m or whatever it is for Fabregas, and they go and replace him with a 17 year old from Africa, for around £12m.

Can you imagine how mental Gooners fans would go?

That's one of the main reasons i'm willing him to do it

Think Parker is overrated and too old in any case. Ramsey is top drawer though.

[Mostar]

Can you imagine how mental Gooners fans would go?

They already are.

I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't reinvest all the money (He did that with Adebayor money) and bring quality players to replace Cesc and Nasri (looks likely to leave too).

[Craig_H]

Quality players to replace Fabregas and Nasri, but still no quality CB, holding midfielder or goalkeeper.

In fact, i may send Wenger a letter, urging him to stick to his guns and not be held to ransom by other clubs. Hold firm Arsene, stick to your beliefs.

And buy no-one.
