"Mertesacker - Podolski is keen"

http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11095/7577129/Mertesacker-Podolski-is-keen

Im hoping the purse strings will be loosened in the summer.

Hmmm i thought he had already agreed 'terms' with us??...goes to show that you really cant trust any source these days.

Would like to see him with us as he could potentially take a lot of the scoring pressure off RVP but then it all depends on if RVP decides to stay with us ie sign a new contract.

I really hope we sign this guy - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAm5woouJoM&feature=related

 

[SideWinder]

36 apps and 3 goals according to Wiki.

 

[Purdy]

For Chelsea?
Doesn't he have like 1.5 goals per manager there

**** I'd love him back

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

I wouldn't. We've got one expensive donkey at the club, don't need another. Let him enjoy life with a big club

One?

€13m deal to sign Podolski is what's being rumoured. I'd love to see him in the PL!

Mainly because of this

 

[Andybtsn]

That's the best you can find?

Forever the optimist

 

[Yas786]

Maybe that's because your primary source is the Daily Mail!

Oooh check you out...i dont take the Daily Fail anymore seriously than other sources actually...i find a lot of the stuff on Daily fail quite lolworthy especially regarding Arsenal and the rumours surrounding us...it helps pass the time when im bored

Sing with me now!


Lu-Lu-Lu Lukas Podolski!


Arshavin, Park and Chamakh replacement, all in one!

 

[Somnambulist]

He'd probably be a good singing tbh. Clearing out the guff attacking players for players like him would be good. I'd hope the biggest 'signing' would be Bould as assistant manager after Rice retires this summer, teach them how to defend or something lol.

 

[Somnambulist]

See all the papers this morning are RVP to City stories, sigh. If he goes, it won't be to another prem club.

 

[DanH84]

If Arsenal can keep vp then podolski would be a good, intelligent signing taking a lot of pressure off vp.

If they lose vp then podolski will not completely cover it.

Pretty much the same as, if they could have held on to fabregas then arteta would have been a cracking signing.

Real shame to see Pogba go, Morrison had more natural talent but was always a loose cannon. Gutted to lose both in one season. We have however lost the 'not buying a midfielder as we've got stars in the reserves' excuse. We should see at least 1, possibly 2 midfielders (depending on fletcher) coming in over the summer.

Could have said that for the last 3 years I won't believe we're signing any until they're on the teamsheet.

 

[Stretch]

Podolski is a great singling for Arsenal. If 13m is true then it's a bargain.

 

[Rids]

If we can hold on to Van Persie then Podolski will be an awesome adition to the team, give him a real strike partner to play with.

 

[guyfawkes5]

Podolski to Arsenal (£10.9m) finalised according to the Beeb.

 

[Robbo]

Good signing for Arsenal to be honest, Podolski seems to be a very tidy player.

He's fast and powerful which is something Arsenal lack.
