Looks like Arsenal are closing in on Cazorla:

Looks a good signing Lex.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Santi Cazorla is a very good player. Bit lightweight but that's often the trade-off for genuine width and pace.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Yeah, I don't believe we're getting him until it's official. Plenty of time for Man City to hijack the bid.

Arsenal rumours gathering further pace:

Despite the M'villa rumours still popping up once every so often, looks like Wenger is looking elsewhere for his DM.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Yes Nuri Sahin is in my mind is a very good player and just the type Arsenal need in their midfield.

Scottish Football TV Deal update.

PA: Johnston optimistic over TV deal.

Kilmarnock chairman Michael Johnston expects the Scottish Premier League to retain the bulk of its broadcasting income this season with ESPN set to follow Sky Sports in confirming their renewed commitment.

The Arsenal transfer rumour mill continues. Reports in Spain now suggesting that Alex Song is less than 48 hours away from signing for Barcelona.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Thats a bit of surprise.:shocked:

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Indeed, shocker that Barca would waste money on Song. Never been impressed by him.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

He would probably do quite well outside of the EPL.

I agree though that he has not really been that impressive for Arsenal. He can attack better than alot of DMs but he DM work is very lacking.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Yeah, he can attack well but defensively he is lacking. Mind you, a lot of the Arsenal players who go on to different clubs mostly do better. Upson went to Birmingham and he did better, can't think of any more of the top of my head but they seem to be stifled a bit at Arsenal and only when they move clubs do they come into their own.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Its a mixture of both. Some players do much worse, e.g. Reyes and Hleb while others do better. But generally defenders probably do much better as most teams don't play a high line so they don't remain exposed, e.g. Senderos is actually doing a decent job at Fulham. He was a disaster at Arsenal.
