January Transfer Window 2012/2013 Season Rumours/Signings

Didn't think that Germany would be his preferred choice to be honest. But their youth system is exceptional so he may be there for the long run.

What a joke lol.

Also, I heard that Remy is on a 100k/w wage with QPR, and he has a clause that if they get relegated, he can leave on a free transfer. Anybody can confirm?

Also, I swear DM is crazy.

Remy is on 80k/w he get out clause if they go down to leave, I don't think it's free but it wont be a lot...

DM is always like that :D (it's half the fun of here)

Wenger's latest on Arsenal's activity in the transfer window

"We are working very hard," Wenger told Arsenal Player.

"First of all we want to sort out the injuries we have, and we are trying very hard to close the deal with Walcott. Once we have done that, we will certainly do something else. At the moment I cannot tell you more.

"It has become more difficult [to buy players in January] for one simple reason: we have a good squad. I know we swim against the stream a bit because people don’t believe that. I say we have a very good squad.

"But we have some improvements to make and we know exactly where. In January it is difficult to find the players that are really better and can give something special to the squad. The number is right, we have a good balance and we are working very hard to find what we want."

Pathetic! Why do we need to sort out the injuries we have before making a move for players?? What does this have to do with anything?! We're light in all areas of the squad even if everyone is fit.

I know this is what we have come to expect but what ridiculous excuses! :mad:

LOL Wenger and his excuses, just makes me laugh. If we do buy anyone then it will be mediocre players on long contracts sucking out £60k+ a week.

Altho i read somewhere that he says Arsenal are now ready to compete with the big boys as the stadium debt.

I'll believe it when it really, truly happens

:D

I love it when managers get annoyed at journalists constantly asking about speculation.

Need to get a subscription to saints player for Adkins saying basically the same thing in a more random/polite manner on all the fun speculation that comes to our players (the Luke Shaw to Arsenal one was fun)

That's hilarious! "our way is a bit like Barcelona"

Other than having a big attendance Wenger is really clutching at straws there...

It sounded to good to be true.

We seem to have different descriptions of 'fun'

I actually think De Ridder was good on of the FMs. Don't remember which though.

Yeah, a bit like Barca, who spend big on a few players but the vast majority of the team and quality came through cheap players they've had since young kids. The problem is the time Wenger's been at Arsenal, our top youth players who have come all the way through is ..... Wilshire, everyone else has been brought in basically at or very close to the level they started playing first team games at.

Our youth team consistently produces crap, Barcelona's "rejects" often go off to other La Liga teams and look decent, ours go to lower league clubs, with a couple of exceptions and tbh, I can't remember what ages guys like Bentley and Pennant were at the club from.

lol, Larsson came in at 16, his debut for Arsenal was out of position at left back, lol, one of the best right wingers in the league last year, and not doing a terrible job in central midfield this year. Bentley, actually did join Arsenal young, barely got a chance and quite funnily started off as a striker and ended up out wide under Wenger... original story that one.

A bit like Barca..... that we pay a man that is so clearly a crack addict to run the team is somewhat baffling, a man who can be tactically out thought by a god damned coat......... :(

"Will continue to build the core of the team from within".............

that would be, the keeper, actually brought in at 16years old, not particularly brilliant but not bad, Verm, Kos/Mert, nope, Arteta, Santi, Diaby, Giroud/Podolski/Gervinho/Walcott.... the spine(central lot is what I assume he meant) came from within? Wilshire and the keeper, at best, we haven't developed anyone else at all from the youth team, Rosicky, AOC, Coquelin, Sagna, Jenks, Arshavin.

The only guys you could possibly describe as coming from within the club are Wilshire, keeper, Frimpong and Gibbs. What fantasy land is he living in? One of those is genuinely world class and I think he'd be the player he is no matter where he trained, certainly no evidence that its out great youth training that did it, keeper is half decent, Frimpong is Song Mk 2, as in a bit crap, and Gibbs isn't a footballer.... what a phenomenal team our youth setup has produced.

Also insists we have a very young team, other teams have fielded much younger teams and, is he aware of just how old most of our players are these days?

Jep to Bayern... i mean, i dont get it. All he can do is fail.

Bayern are the biggest club in a dead league. Only them and dortmund are competative on a eropean level. You either win the league and just about meet expectation, or you lose the league and everyone slates you.

Winning the CL comes down more to luck than a superb manager in the end...

Perhaps they are looking to 'blow us out of the water' with a £30m bid for Zaha. :D
