I think Theo pushed as far as he could and he lost. 85k a week is good deal for both side imo.

RG what is Established's new account name?

Please no Ba, only way I would sign Ba is if we only pay him if he plays.

Theo tells Podolski and Arshavin how much money he wants.

You know, if we can get M'Vila for 4-5m and 40-50k p/w wages

He can't be that bad of a deal ?

by BeArsenal Fri Dec 28, 2012 6:29 pm

I actually like the Yann M'villa rumors.

but is he an upgrade to Coq atm?

by RealGunner Fri Dec 28, 2012 7:31 pm

I would say yes. Because of his physicality

by Jay29 Fri Dec 28, 2012 7:38 pm

M'Vila would be a lot of work, I think. He has been harshly punished and you'd like to think he's determined to improve his behaviour, but it's something that would require patience.

Coquelin, on the other hand, is chomping at the bit to get more first team minutes and has apparently been looking good in training. As far as young midfielders go, I think he'd be the safer bet.

by lenear1030 Fri Dec 28, 2012 8:05 pm

if we buy a midfielder shouldn't it be someone who is good enough to bench arteta? If not, should a midfielder even be considered?

You can say to add depth but we wont help ourselves if we aren't buying players that are better than the ones we have.

by Jay29 Fri Dec 28, 2012 8:45 pm

How would you define a midfielder as being better than Arteta, though? Arteta plays a specialised role in the side that's not a traditional holding role. Would a more physical midfielder be considered as better? Or would it be a midfielder that could can do what Arteta does and more? There are plenty of the former about (M'Vila, Capoue, Diame, Wanyama...) but not many of the latter (Busquets, and...?).

In my opinion, having a more physical midfielder in the squad would help a lot, simply because we don't have a midfielder like that. Even our "proper" defensive midfielder, Coquelin, is a small guy not noted for his power.
