Crystal Palace say a deal for Bendtner is dependent on Arsenal getting another striker in.

This is good, we're definitely in for a striker.

by Arsenalfaithfull Mon 02 Sep 2013, 20:59

looks like the deal is done! Wow cant believe we spent 40 milli on a player Neutral

@JWTelegraph: No issues on Ozil - Arsenal putting together statement and lawyers reading and re-reading contract. It's all agreed and medical done

Getting there, bit by bit...

Club is making absolutely damn sure everything is in order, so I'm not surprised this is taking so long to finalise. It's a historic deal for us, after all.

Is Ozil is better than Fabregas?

Yeah.

@bbcsport_david: Arsenal's €50m signing of Ozil is being processed. Essentially done and dusted. Announcement in next couple of hours #bbcfootball #afc #rmfc

When Cesc left in 2011, just about the only player of comparable age (though MO slightly younger) who I thought would have been a sufficient replacement - and even upgrade - would have been Özil. IMO.

Let's not make Özil our savior & messiah, of course. It may take him a little while to mesh with the rest of the squad. But I think we can all agree he fits Wenger's call for "top, top, top quality"! Twisted Evil

“@johncrossmirror: Sadly for Arsenal, Ba not happening.”

Ouch!

by Jay29 Mon 02 Sep 2013, 21:21

First bad news of the day: Ba deal not happening. Chelsea won't allow him to move to a rival.

Hope we have alternatives...

by Sina Mon 02 Sep 2013, 21:21

ok no Ba then
any other option hmm

by Raptorgunner Mon 02 Sep 2013, 21:22

That means we are after other strikers. bounce

We need a back up Giroud badly.

by urbaNRoots Mon 02 Sep 2013, 21:22

F*ck it, go all out for Benteke.

Arsenal not now expecting to add a striker. Leaves club relying heavily on Giroud to feed off Ozil's assists #afc

So wait chelsea won't loan Demba Ba to Arsenal because they won't loan to rivals but loaned out Victor Moses to Liverpool. Rolling Eyes

Probably means Bendtner stays too

by urbaNRoots Mon 02 Sep 2013, 21:32

This also means Bendtner will stay at the club and be our 2nd choice... this was the plan all along. Now Arsenal will announce Özil so we can forget about this very quickly.

by Jay29 Mon 02 Sep 2013, 21:32

It's probably too late to get a striker in now. All well and good saying we should go all out for Muriel or Benteke, but clubs won't sell unless they can bring in a replacement. With two and a half hours to go, that's very unlikely.

So welcome back, Bendtner. Neutral
