I couldn't care less about Rooney tbh but thats mostly because i think theres zero chance we sign him.
Get jiggy with the Higgy?
I thought Higuain to Juve was basically done. As far as I understand ourselves and Juventus are keen on Higuain and Jovetic. Can't see both going to the same club. Jovetic is keen on staying in Italy.
Higuain, Walcott, Podolski and Giroud is a very Championship managery strikeforce, isn't it? Big names, sound better than they are. But have I mentioned that I think Walcott will explode next season?
There have already been offers and I hope that Madrid do the best for me and themselves,’ said Higuain.
‘Arsenal? They would suit me, I’m still young and I have goals. There are many possibilities. I want to go to a league where I’ll be put to the test.'
Oh we'll put him to the test alright.
He should read Kos' comments about the psychological burden of struggling for CL places.
We'd be expecting not to be in that struggle if we bought him though - even more pressure on him then 
We'll be in that struggle for fourth all the while wenger point blank refuses to have adequate depth in all areas
Our squad is currently missing viable alternatives for both arteta and gulp, giroud. Awful really when you stop to think about that
Arsenal will have to offer £25.6m to sign Gonzalo Higuain after Juventus had an £18.8m bid for the Real Madrid striker turned down, according to reports in Italy
Talksport taking that information from Gazetta dello Sport (no idea where Gazetta unearthed that story)
Is it odd that both Jovetic and Higuain are both being valued at £25ish million and both are allegedly being pursued by both us and Juve?
Probably not
Rooney and Higuain and I'll forgive Wengie everything.
What if he sold Kos to fund those purchases and wages?
Would you forgive him that Rex?
Higuain will go to Juve, Jovetic to Chelsea.
Yep. Easier to replace Kos than getting that kind of talent at the other end of the pitch.
Now you want to sell our own man god to bring in Rooney. Are you related to Rooney?
Shagged his grandma, so almost.
That's Dules and Nela in my avi btw.
Gonzalo Higuain: "I have offers many outside Spain, but I decided to accept the offer of Arsenal, but that does not mean that I have finished all the procedures move to Arsenal, but there are still negotiations between me and them"
"I decided to go there because I'm still young and I see that the way the team played for me too and you'll get used to there quickly"
I'm new to fb so I don't know how reliable the news feed is but if this quote is true then I'm quite hopeful that negotiations are at an advanced stage (fees yet to be agreed). I'd love Higuain, always liked his clinical finishing style.
One more offensive player and a holding midfielder, keep all our players and I'll be optimistic heading into the season. But then, I'm optimistic heading into every season.
Where's that from
WHAT?
If those quotes are true, then, we are very close to signing him. But, I wonder why they are not all over the internet already.
This page popped up on my news feed, I've never used it before. https://www.facebook.com/LatestPremierLeagueNews?hc_location=stream
I googled the quote and other places had the same quotes but I don't know where they originated.
If the quotes are true it just means that personal terms are done. We've "secured" personal terms with Mata,Pjanic, Cazorla and if I remember correctly Zlatan in the past so I'm trying not to get my hopes up.
The bit where he says he's accepted an offer implies he's agreed terms with us

If this quote is legit it was translated by a moron, not a journalist. Just sayin'
Edit: Accidentally made it sound like the categories of moron and journalist are mutually exclusive.
If that mangled quote means what I think it does then this is a good way to wake up this morning.

interesting. lets see if some legit media outlets start running with this
yeah, i saw that on Facebook yesterday, searched the rest of the Internet and found nothing. i don't excite myself unless i see a guy holding a red shirt with Wenger grinning next to him.
His brother was in the news yesterday saying quotes attributed to him were rubbish. Must have been talking about these ones (I didn't bother with the article, just saw the headline on newsnow).
Really want Higuain. Rate him super highly and he is a personal favourite of mine.
Would be an Arshavin esque quality signing for me (the 2009 Arshavin obviously).
Blu Radio is getting everyone excited.

A colombian radio station based in Argentina has said that Higuain to Arsenal is almost done.

Arsenal-mania is freaking out right now.
Hmmm........

What!? :hmm:
What's the twit oracle Geoff saying about this?
He should be all over it.
To be honest higuain has a very attacking mentality, which I think we are lacking. He will run and shoot from anywhere.
I still hope that we can get another attacker to complement the team. Ljajic or Lamela would make me sit up and take notice if we could pull it off.

Ban me? They would be mad to get rid of such an asset.
