Indonesian All Stars 0-7 Arsenal. Wenger in. We don't need to sign anyone.

On a more serious note there are some exciting players coming through but please God let it not be another cycle of waiting for them while seniors get fed up and leave!

But theres good news at last as they have agreed a fee for Ezequiel Garay for £17.2m.

Out of that list theres one player we have bid for and another we have had strong interest in but haven't bid for. I don't see how we have "missed out on every one of them". Plus the fact the window is still open so deals can still be done, I don't know how you came to the conclusion they have "missed out".

Sky Sources:Man Utd to make £35m offer for Cesc Fabregas.

I cant see that happening and even if it is true he will never come to us

I agree but i just cant see it. He left a team he loved playing for to go back to his childhood team and he wont leave them to come play for us. He loves Arsenal too much to play against them

Moyes on Rooney:

"Overall, my thought on Wayne is, if for any reasons we had an injury to Robin van Persie, we'll need him, Wayne can play up on his own, he can play dropped in. It's going to be a time to see how I work with Wayne. Manchester United isn't about Wayne Rooney. Manchester United is about the team - the club. I won't allow Wayne Rooney to become more important than the football club and the football team, because that's the heart of it."

We better offer £35 million for Cesc!!

Russ · 15-07-2013, 12:58

I could see this happening. The lure of RVP is certainly going to help and I think Moyes feels a need to make a flagship signing as a statement of intent. United have a massive hole in midfield and Fabregas would make the position his own. Trophies haven't been fast and flowing for him at Barca so maybe with the right offer he would be tempted.

nstokes · 15-07-2013, 12:59

He is defo what we need to fill the hole of Paul Scholes

Russ · 15-07-2013, 13:09

Disgusting.

How much did barca pay arsenal for fabregas?

nstokes · 15-07-2013, 13:13

Sky sports say that in his contract there is a clause that Arsenal have first refusal on him if he leaves Barca. The clause is for Arsenal to pay £25m and so the full Man Utd bid will be £35

**Damien** · 15-07-2013, 13:23

Arsenal have first option and a sell on clause apparently. Presumably token clauses for a player they never thought they would sell again. Hopefully Arsenal utilise them.
