Classic Arsene when asked whether Draxler was taken on a tour of the training ground

"That's like with the UFO's. Some see them everywhere!"

Sebastian Giovinco's agent has apparently said we are interested in him.

Have to say it would be hilarious having Giroud and then Giovinco as our backup :lol:

Also reports in France that we've signed 21 year old striker Paul Georges-Ntep from Auxerre.

Don't think it will make a huge difference anyway. Draxler is out till March and I get the feeling our plan has always been to try for him in the summer, him being possibly available in January was more a bonus than anything.

Haha yes quite humorous :lol:

Levy might f*ck with it though. From Soccernet:

10.12 GMT: It seems the north London rivalry can even spill over into the January transfer window -- the Mirror reports that Tottenham may block Lewis Holtby's proposed move to Schalke as a means of throwing a spanner in the works of Arsenal's bid for Julian Draxler. It seems as though the Bundesliga club want the Spurs midfielder on loan as a potential replacement for Draxler, but Daniel Levy could prevent it all happening by vetoing Holtby's move. Cue two unhappy clubs, two unhappy players, and one very happy Mr Levy.

:lol: with this one though you really do have to laugh at the way it seemed everything just lined up perfectly.

Haha no. These sort of tables/pictures/culminations of random "convenient" statistics supporting Arsenal/Wenger are always highly amusing :lol:

You lot have dug up a few over the last year.

Yeah Yossi did a great job for us when he was here and Viviano was only brought in to be a 2nd-3rd keeper so I don't know what more you expect of him

Yossi was superb for us . Haters gonna hate

Benayoun won us Champions League football, Moses and Cissokoh will win you 5th at best, jealous?

Page 500 :d

This from a club which has loaned Benayoun and Vivano...

Go home jlm, you're drunk.

<3

So Cissokoh (how's he been :lol: ) and Moses aren't scrapping loans?

:lol: I know, right? And Sakho and Mignolet are "scrapping loans".

Go home jlm, you're drunk.

O Jogo reporting that we are very keen on Rodrigo from Benfica and apparently had scouts watching him against Porto.

I know you're probably not, but really hoping you're not taking that seriously :lol:

That's just retarded :lol:

Typical Gooners thinking too deeply.

This, and it was a joke against Liverpool wtf is wrong with you people.

tbf he never said big transfers :lol: Just transfers.

And obviously with Lamela, Spurs are more willing to let go of Holtby, which of course means we're going to now take Draxler off Schalke's hands. Arsene has manipulated Tottenham's every move in the transfer market to our advantage. He is the spider at the centre of the vast web we call the transfer market. There is no such thing as free will in the world of football transfers , every move is made because of Arsene, he pulls the strings, bow down to his genius.

:lol:

:lol: :lol: Arsenal signs Ozil and now you make "Big Transfers (plural)." F*cking :lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

You're just jealous that we actually make transfers, and don't have to scrap to loan players from bigger clubs.

Yes, the transfer world revolves around arsenal :lol:

This is all down to the Gervinho transfer, Arsene obviously knew what he was doing. The man's a genius! :lol:

Pretty much this :lol: Them selling Bale to Madrid opened the door for Özil to come to us and them selling Holtby to Schalke does in theory open the door for us to possibly get Draxler now instead of trying to get him in the summer.

Im guessing its more of a:

Spurs sell Bale to Madrid, makes Ozil available for us.
Spurs sell Holtby to Schalke, makes Draxler available for us.

Could be so very very wrong though :lol: :lol:

Not sure I follow... I'm guessing you're not referring to changing their manager.

Less of a debacle more of a shamozzle.

That sounds about right. Around the WC 2010 debacle.
