The thing is we will need a good replacement if he goes and there's several who are interesting.

Newcastle dodged a bullet not signing De Jong.. he's your typical overpriced goal machine in Holland but nothing more than a cheap Torres emulator in Germany. Liverpool need another striker on the same calibre.. not a gamble. If they gamble at least try Leandro if not Benteke is a safer option

Reports coming out of Italy claim Roma are close to agreeing a fee with Arsenal for Gervinho.

Good riddance l say.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window

'According to Goal.com'

:no:

even Sky Italia are reporting anything and everything, they said Thiago to Bayern was done a day or two ago

http://www.football-italia.net/36377...gervinho-offer

somehow I think Arsenal will ask for more, if the above is true.. then they will get whats coming to them being greedy by having someone lurk draining resources.

Wenger set to snub PSG and extend bumper £7.5m-a-season contract at Emirates
PUBLISHED: 22:28, 12 July 2013 | UPDATED: 22:28, 12 July 2013

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2362144/Arsene-Wenger-set-extend-deal-Arsenal.html?ito=feeds-newsxml

from the above link...

‘I am committed to staying longer at this club. I’ve already had a chat with Ivan. It went very well, not a problem,’ the 63-year-old said. But Wenger, who has been at the helm since 1996, insists the decision will not rest solely with him. ‘What I will always do in the future is not to use my longevity (at this club) as an advantage to stay in this position if I don’t do well. The contract will be decided in the future. That will depend on how well I do. I’ve always shown my commitment to this club and I don’t think I need to prove anything on that. Would my decision depend on how well next season goes? I am like anybody else, of course, it is important to see how well we do. I don’t automatically assume that I will be here. I think I knew when I committed to my last contract and the contract before that the club were going through a very sensitive period, because we had less financial resources and the challenge was to stay at the top and in the Champions League during that period. We are coming out of that period and I hope in the next two or three years the club will be competing for the Premier League.’

‘The link with PSG is there because I’m French and I know the owners. But if that was the case then I would be there already. My heart is with Arsenal. I’m not at PSG because my heart is with Arsenal,’ he said.

Wenger should complete the £23m signing of Real Madrid striker Gonzalo Higuain, while the club are also interested in Wayne Rooney and Luis Suarez. Landing all three could prove a step too far for Arsenal, despite their increased financial clout, but Wenger admitted: ‘They are all realistic targets quality wise, but not all of them are available to join us. First of all, those players are under contract and it is the club who decide if they can go and, if they go, if they can join us. We have better financial resources than the years before and it is resources we have created ourselves. That is massively important to us. For years we were out of the race for the top-level transfers but we are coming back now because we are in a better financial situation and also because of Financial Fair Play. That will give everybody a bit more even ground. We must also rely on the quality of our work, on the style of our play and the fact we develop our own players. We will only use financial resources to bring in one or two players who will give us something more. We will see what we can do until the end of the transfer period and certainly before the new season starts. That’s what we are working on at the moment. The fans, the players, everybody is reassured by big names. But what is important is that we don’t need numbers, we need quality. We are working very hard and I’m confident we will be able to do it.’

Wenger added: ‘This is the biggest change in the top four in all the time I’ve been with Arsenal. Is the league more open than before? We don’t know, nobody knows. It feels like it should be, but it is not who sits on the bench who will be most important — it is the players on the pitch. But we’ve got the most stability and we hope to take advantage of that. There was a big gap between us and Manchester United last season and our challenge is to bridge that gap. But you go to Manchester City, they will want to win the league. You go to Manchester United, it’s the same, to Liverpool, to Chelsea, everybody will want to win the league.’

1 or 2 signings? thats it?!!! the rest makes sense but 1 or 2 buys?!! thats it?!!!

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window

Depends who those signings are. Higuain and Fellini wouldn't be too bad! Besides I would read too much into it, he isn't going to reveal anything is he?

Higuain, Fellaini and an AM, Bernard would be a great buy, someone Wenger can turn into a real star. that as it stands would be good business.
