We're all setting ourselves up for colossal disappointment.

😆
Probably true. Nice to be linked to a player I rate for a change though.

Yep, best player we've been linked to in ages.
No need to worry about being disappointed just yet 🙂

I've been sucked in by it. Tried not to, but I really like the look of this guy.

When someone credible gets started on this story aka BBC Sports or one of their journalists then I'll start getting excited

As far as I can tell, only source for this is Football Mercado, who are also reporting that we're signing Ganso for €17m. The Ganso rumour is based on a fake twitter account pretending to be from a reputable website which in turn is actually claiming he's off to Internacional!

squallkid

I thought that Football Mercado were taking their cue from some Italian sports website.

Anyways this isn't very likely.

When the BBC report on it, it's as good as finalized, before then I'm not believing this.

Tutto Mercato or something? Equally useless site.

Rumour Accuracy For Arsenal 🙂

The Scotsman 1 / 1 ->100%
Bild 2 / 3 ->66.7%
The Times 32 / 92 -> 34.8%
Daily Telegraph 25 / 73 -> 34.2%
The Independent 20 / 60 -> 33.3%
Daily Mail 93 / 347 -> 26.8%
The Guardian 13 / 49 -> 26.5%
The Express 38 / 146 -> 26%

Surprisingly no mention of tuttomercato.com
Just wait for Bild to say we're interested in Jovetic then 8)

IBL

So this guy, Giroud and Podolski in and RvP out = more overall firepower rather than an over-reliance on one man?

Would be a good purchase if it comes to pass

Rex

Here's to hoping to read this in The Scotsman then. 🙂

asajoseph

Haha - brilliant stats. Where you get that from?

How do you judge if a rumour is correct or not? Not all interest is followed through or successful.

Meatwad

and i hope they differentiate between being the original source of the rumor and just reprinting it.

right, but how many of those were lazy sideways or backwards rumours?

kamikaze

this was all a ploy by van persie to get us to fork out the cash for jovetic.

ALL IS FORGIVEN

Wow - I have not seen that site before.

Those stats are quite nice, and since most of these publications don't attribute their sources it doesn't really matter where the stories come from, just the hit rate. Get some measurement going on the bluffers - if it could inform purchasing choices it could slowly redefine the transfer rumour market.

They should extend it to Twitter though.

So Fiorentina want £20M for him. I say let's wrap this up here and now.

20m is a bloody bargain for us.
