People also nicely forget that, the team is undergoing smaller and fewer changes yearly, which leads to a more settled and practiced squad

i understand this but how long can that go on for, another 3 years? i've seen a lot of city games and they've been sporadic, certainly nothing to convince me they are close to being the finished article.
 
He is a good defender would be an improvement on what you have at the moment,Price not sure but its Everton i sense you will have to pay more than 15M anyway

Chelsea weren't interested in aguero. Maybe if we hadn't bought torres we would have made a bid but we have lots of decent strikers already.

:p I remember in January you were chatting like Aguero to Chelsea was a done deal

Looks like we're really going for it this summer. Do people rate Jagielka, is he worth £15mil+?

He's better than Lescott :/

Whether he's worth £15m depends on how you value him. On one hand he's currently better than Phil Jones who's gone for £16-20m but on the other hand, Jagielka turns 29 in a couple of weeks and has had a few injury problems too.

All things considered, he's probably not quite worth it but it's the sort of bid you'll need to make to persuade Everton to sell.
 
Yes he is worth £15m+, you would expect a player to come back from ACL reconstruction rather shakey and not as good as before but he came back so much better. IMO he should be an England starter.


And you'll get him for £15m, there's been a massive rumour going round that before the players went off to the US for pre-season when there was interest in Baines from City, Moyes asked Baines if he would be annoyed if the club accepted a bid of £15m for him and Baines said something along the lines of, all the players know how things are with finances, and if the offer is good enough they know that it would get accepted.

And £15m+ is what everyone thinks Jags' price would be. So it wouldn't take much more than that for you to get him.
 
everton want £18m by the looks of it but just think, if you had had him in february, maybe newcastle wouldn't have stuck 4 past you? that's priceless

£60m they can have Baines as well then to sort out that left side. :D
 
Barcelona have issued Arsenal with a take it or leave it ultimatum over the proposed transfer of Cesc Fabregas.
Speaking last night Club President Sandro Rosell said that either Arsenal accepted a realistic valuation of the player or the deal is off.

“We have been monitoring all of the English Fantasy Football competitions and none of them value Cesc over £25 million” said Rosell. “How can Arsene Wenger demand £40 million when he is only worth £10 million in the Daily Star and £7 million in The Sun?”

“Cesc was born in Barca shirt and there is not a waking moment that I don’t dream of him returning home but how can they justify such an excessive fee?”
“It’s not as if we’re just talking about the red tops, even the Sunday Times only value him at £14 million and they have some of the most respected journalists in the world, for this deal to happen Arsenal must reduce their asking price.”

Pep Guardiola supported his President’s stance and said that he would consider paying a compromise figure of £30 million but only if they recieved a window midway through the season where they could swap him due to injury or a drop in form.
“Any Fantasy Football League player will tell you it is risky when you spend huge sums on one player, we have to balance what we need for other areas of the squad but if Arsenal allowed us to come back around Christmas and swap him for Nasri or maybe even Van Persie we could be in business” said the Barca Coach..
Arsene Wenger hit back by saying that Fantasy Football valuations are no way to measure the true worth of a player but that if any Club wanted to pay the £3 million price tag given to Nicolas Bendtner by the Daily Mail he would be willing to listen.

:p I would have loved him at chelsea. There were numerous rumours over the last transfer windows that we were interested in aguero. That changed when torres was signed, and there have been no credible rumours that we were interested in signing him this summer.

edit: I really rate jagielka and he's just the kind of player that arsenal need, can play defensive mid too.
 
Jagielka could be the difference in winning the EPL or failing for Arsenal (If Nasri and Fab stay and perform)...Shame they didn't sign up Given too and sort that problem out.

Phil Jagielka is not going to win Arsenal the premiership. I will bet my house on that.
 
I assume Vermaelen will be playing LB next season then? I would think following last seasons fairly positive performances Djourou would be partnering him if that isn't the case so why the need for Jagielka?

Unless Djourou becomes third choice and Koscielny only used if everyone else is dead? Squillaci only used if Koscielny is also dead.

No need to be pedantic, I'm saying with him and Vermaelen back, Arsenal have a good enough chance to mount a serious challenge, they had a good chance last season but their god awful defence destroyed any chance of that.

They'll need a new LB and RB as well then. Sagna has gone downhill and Gibbs isn't good enough.

Jenkinson looks good already and nothing to say Sagna can't reproduce some of his good form. LB is a little shaky though. Kon can play there too, doubt Verm would be moved there as that just weakens our CB area.

Jag would be a good buy and if that is followed up with Meta then it could even turn fabs head a little. Especially if Barca refuse to meet the asking price set by Arsenal. I can't see Arsene dropping the price unless Fab pushes his hand and I don't think Fab will do that.
 
Mata would be awesome for Arsenal. Him and Gervinho on the wings would be refreshing, rather than constantly pushing AMC's out there like Nasri and Arshavin.

Jagielka would be a sensible buy also. Maybe £15M is a touch steep, but he can cover DM as well as play CB which would be a bonus when Song goes to the ACoN.

IF Wenger gets these two in and loses only 1 of Cesc/Nasri, I'd be tempted to say the squad is probably improved. Left back is a must though, Gibbs is not good enough, so Enrique would be a decent buy.

Looks like things are spicing up anyway.
