I doubt the Diarra clause was anywhere near 40%. 25% would be my guess.

However we are signing Tevez, Ribery and Arshavin this transfer window.

Ho ho ho - you may sign the other two (although BM are quite attached to Ribery I believe) but you wont get Tevez until the Summer

(I guess you could still sign them in Jan, although it wont be effective until the summer)

If Arsene even bought one of those players, let alone all three in the same window I would eat my hat (that must be £60m or so of transfers there minimum)

3 goals in two games ;) , but frankly you need some perspective, World Club cup, is weak in the best of years, this was the weakest ever. One team from a "real" league, the rest from fairly cruddy leagues and a couple teams no ones ever heard of.

West Brom are probably better than the other 3 teams on their best day. I wouldn't hail Rooney's performances playing against the Ecuadorian champions(i presume they were the champions in Ecuador), or against the Japanese.

I could say Arsenal were the best team in the world last year because we won the Emirates cup against, frankly, much much much higher quality sides, but I won't as that would be equally as pointless.


EDIT:- the Diarra move has been completed, didn't Arsenal have like a 40% sell on fee clause so we could be looking at around 8mil from the sale?

I thought Hamburg SV won it this year :confused:

I don't see your problem with the World Club Cup. It's simply the best team from each contintent competing. Man Utd were champions of Europe and thus represented Europe. Sure the Gulf in quality between Europes teams and everywhere else is huge but a cup is a cup and in 2008 Man Utd have won the PL,CL, and WCC where as Liverpool,Chelsea and Arsenal have won nothing.
