Looks like the Arsenal Sahin deal might fall though at the last moment. According to The Times (and seen elsewhere) we want a right to buy deal so that we're not just giving the guy a platform to excel for Madrid next year. Madrid do not want such an option.

I would rather buy M'Vila than loan Sahin. I am not too sure where Sahin slots into our team when we have Arteta, Cazorla, Chamberlain, Diaby, and Wilshere all capable of playing the same kind of central midfield role that Sahin would occupy. All are attacking mindend. I feel we need a defence midfielder there and M'Vila suits that role better than Sahin from what I have heard.

Wenger went off M'Vila after he punched someone in the face, but so what? We need someone capable of punching someone in the face.
