Might even say Alba is a better option as Bale was terrible at leftback and that's where Barca needs help

Ill even add that I think Jordi IS 100% a better option. Less money, Spanish, and a much better defensive player as you said.

Rumor is we got offered Giovinco plus 40 mill for Cavani.

How does that not make sense? Napoli got offered Giovinco plus 40 Mill for Cavani according to a tuttinapoli.

I missed the got piece, my bad. Without the 'got' you sounded like a Juve fan, which threw me

Fuck no. Fuck Juve.

Thoughts then? Gio is a nice player and 40 mil isn't chump change

At first I was all for it. But we would only get 1/2 the rights to Giovinco plus the 40 million.

Forgot to mention Parma owns the other half.

Jesus, 40 mil for Sebastian Giovinco now......FFS. I guess im just gonna have to get used to this. Still cant quite wrap my head around these prices though.

No. 40 million plus half the rights of Giovinco for Cavani. That's the rumor right now. Idk how that's not clear.

Because its a dumb shit deal.

QPR today signed Andy Johnson on a free, and Brett Neilsen from Tottenham for cheap for 1 year. Also, it looks like they will be getting Fabio Da Silva from United on loan for a year.

Just saw on SSN that Arsenal agreed to sign Olivier Giroud from the champs Montpellier. Nice work AW.

This would be big. RvP neeeeeds the help up front. Bendtner is as good as gone and Park and Chamakh really haven't proven to be or any worth. The agreement with Lukas Podolski was also nice. Now it's time to look for another defensive midfielder and centerback.

Easily the biggest signing the Gunners can make is signing RvP to a contract extension.

Newcastle have bid 8mil for Luuk De Jong.

Park is going to do his war duties, and Chamakh was good as gone too I thought.

If legit, and it works out, that is a very good deal, and very savvy business.

As far as I know, Park doesn't have to serve until 2022. Chamakh is still around, but his ball handling is poor and goes down way too easily for me. He won't last in the EPL.

Podolski and Walcott can play upfront, but they're better off out wide.

Luka Modric is close to moving to Spain, with Real Madrid desperate to sign the 26-year-old Tottenham midfielder.

I hope he leaves. Van der Vaart has been rumored to be leaving to Schalke as well. I'd love to see Tottenham fall apart!!
