With the transfer window set to open in europe soonest. I thought it wise to create this thread where we Arsenal fans would come together to discuss on the transfer prospects of our dear club Arsenal. To start with, who do you think should come in and who should be shown the exit. There's this rumour in the foreign dailies today of a move by Arsenal to bring in Olivier Gourd frm Montepellier. Chamark is being offered as part of the deal. And also what do you make of the current Van Persie contract situation? You're also free to alert the house on breaking transfer news concerning Arsenal. Objectivity is key here. Welcome onboard.

My broda,we are set for another long summer. Learnt dt d board never made any offer to RVP and he expressed his desire not to renew his contract. Think if wenger can get giroud he can go.
I knw wenger will not sign Mvila unless he will sell any of coquelin or Frimpong but cant see ds happening. Wenger signing a midfielder will be later part of d transfer window when he must ve knw d fitness of Wilshere and his beloved diaby!!

I think the negative side of Wenger's notorious youth policy is beginning to catch up with the team. The wage bills of the club has grown abysmally high due to the so called dead woods in the squad. So many of these players where given unmerited professional contracts with at their teenages wit the hope them becoming prolific wit time. But we know too well how Vela,denilson,bentner,frimpong,djourou,etc hav gotten nowhere near dat. Disposing them off has lingered for some time now. And wit all these in place, i doubt the Board might want to meet up with VanPersie's wage demands. I agree with u, if we can secure giroud, we can as well let Vanpersie go if their negotiations falters. But our problem stil lies in getn dat midfield cover for our defence.
