He wanted a move to Barcelona and they have now signed Hleb. Arsenal therefore need someone in that position but are not going to offer the right money at the moment and will try to negotiate a lower price as the transfer window goes on.

Chelsea are probably interested but they’ve just signed Deco and they are not short of attacking midfield players.

Man United don’t need him, nor do Liverpool or Everton. Spurs have got Modric in that position.

We on the other hand are crying out for a quality playmaker.

I say we should get in there and pinch him before Arsene Wenger manages to talk the price down to his level. He’s the kind of player we should be prepared to offer big money for and if we sneak in right now with an offer of Â£15-16m I reckon St Petersburg would consider it seriously.

why we still talking of arshavin, his agent has said he will not join us, but i hear we are looking at veloso again from my brazillian mate, and he also thinks moutinho, he was being quite sincere about these two

everyone talkin about 2 players for each posistion, that isnt enuf u need

2 of each full back, ideally
6 cb
2-3 of each wingers
6/7 centremids
4-5 strikers

players will be unhappy but this would provide the cpompetetion and also make sure that we would have good players when we get injuries, cus we will, people sayin 4-5 more signings i still think we need at least 7-8 more

imo

Arshavin seems to be anxious to make a move and not quite as choosy,would still be a good acquisition , provide pace, can score, good attacking midfielder, better bet than Aimar.
Lets wait and see, sure his price will come down, but must be ready to spend at the right time. Question is would Ashley come up with the readies, doubt it !

Aston Villa manager, Martin O’Neill has inquired yet again about the availability of James Milner. The latest price quoted by Newcastle for the winger is,
Â£N,OOO,OOO!

Yer, Diego has been quiet lately but would he come to Newcastle? I would like to think so and Coloccini is also a good call.

Zigic would probably prove a decent target man. Not a word of mention about Diego these days, but he’s a quality playmaker. Coloccini would surely come with Gutierrez in the side too.

I’ve given up on Arshavin because Â£24 million is far too much, but i would love to see Arda at the Toon come next season. Also i wouldn’t mind Matias Fernandez, these 2 quality players i believe should cost under or roughly the same as Arshavin alone and yet Arda and Fernandez are probably the better players.

Sky Sports News just claimed that
Steven Taylor was out captain- I am just checking, though i’me 99% sure…. Owen is still our captain right? And they are wrong are’nt they?

Sorry for the ‘off topic’ question, but yer, am just interested….

so he should be unhappy.
24 million is a stupid price for him, its a simple case of zenit getting far too excited/ahead of themselves with the publicity he recieved during the euro’s and the large majority of clubs have realised he’s worth nothing near that, hence bids of around half his tag.
nobody to blame but themselves.
