I used his surname to distinguish mine from the "schoolboy joke" posts.

Don't want us to sign this guy. Not convinced.

Inside word is that the gap between Sporting & Arsenal is narrowing. Whether Arsene will go the extra mile....Your guess is as good as mine!

This guy reliable?

Who wouldnt know the famous Tony Leen? He's supposedly best chums with Liam Brady.

The promise of Koke is certainly intriguing but I think Willy is just a better fit.

I think so, too, as Koke plays higher up the pitch where we are currently stacked.
Carvalho plays in the position we need to strengthen meaning he is of more value to us.

So you would prefer a Willy in deep to an advancing Koke.

He wants as much value for his money as possible, nothing wrong with that. With Koke you're running the risk of getting caught while you're in possession, and that can have consequences.

Koke is too good to get caught in possession.

Yeah, I agree. Just playing the devil's advocate a little. With Koke you've got a fighting chance at least. With Willy you're pretty much fucked.

I'm not sure what's a pun and what's a serious comment. However, I do know i prefer koke to willy, even though some say they're pretty similar.

Would you guys take Santi + Cash for Koke this window..?

Tempted to join but resisting.

lol at this page. You guys make it sound like carvalho is a penis and Koke is a can of Coca Cola! Lol

Willy is big and hard, but Koke is more penetrative and quicker at plugging holes. Tough choice.

One could argue that koke and Willy are basically the same .

So should Wenger add another spanish speaking player to the contigent or go german? 😉

Yes, easily. But i have 0 faith in this happening as Koke just renewed his contract and upped the release clause, which is now something like €60m.

Surprised that so many of you want to take Willy. I'm a big Koke fan.

has afcamden/dean fallen in the itk power rankings? he seems adamant we're gagging for big willy

He's an ITK on the slide. Its all about the Horse and Dempster these days.

I would fancy Willy in a fight with Khedira. That should settle it.

Arsenal close to agreeing transfer fee for Portugal International William Carvalho from Sporting Lisbon #football #afc

😃

There's place for only one Coq.

Why would Fox Sports Australia know anything about anything?

How can you be 'close' to agreeing a transfer fee anyway? You either agree on the price or you don't.

£24m?

No, 30.

Oooooh, so close.

Carvalho looks an interesting prospect. Very good passer. Brushes the ball. Physically very strong too

yep, my thoughts exactly. think he could be a better version of song, as he actually enjoys defending, and has better passing technique.

khedira is obviously much more of a sure thing.

Imagine if we buy William AND Khedira, put Mesut on the left like he played for Germany (but would still operator as our playmaker ofcourse) and use a midfield of William-Ramsey-Khedira. Insane power in the middle.

Ozil plays on the right for Germany actually

Get real, Wenger won't sign BOTH. Not even gonna bother imagining it.

Not for most of the recent world cup, Muller was on the right with Klose up front.
