Arsenal need another defender like cahill or any other central defender that is able to shout and hold the line and in my opinion a defending midfielder like parker and or bowyer

There was no way your board or chairman would decline an offer that substantial given your finances and league.

I know contracts are meaningless nowadays, but he signed a 3 year one last August.

Doesn't make it any less painful.

Depends if/how the proceeds will be spent.

A club either has ambition or it doesn't...

The contract would have ensured you got a high price for him. Gave Southampton a strong position. Clubs have been circling him for a good while now and I think he came close to signing for Arsenal a couple of times as well. I hear he shows more promise than Walcott did at his age, one of Englands best young players, he wasn't going to stay below Premier League for long.

Still you should take great pride in the amount of young players you have developed.

Yeah, fantastic. It really helps us get to the top flight when we spend money developing them & then sell them on...

Well it does. You make a profit, your slowly mounting the leagues, when you get promoted to the Premiership you'll find it easier to keep them. :)

Only if the profit is invested in players who will make a difference...

Tottenham want £14 Million for Roman Pavlyuchenko after an approach for Newcastle.

Doubt we are stupid enough to pay that amount for a player like him.
