Juventus apparently have signed him.
Says we want £12m for Vermaelen, and that we are interested in Ivanovic. I could live with that. http://hereisthecity.com/en-gb/2014/06/24/arsenal-transfer-news-price-set-for-vermaelen-aurier-alternative/?
We are allegedly to open talks with Cuadrado's representatives. If we can't sign Sanchez, then yes please! http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/484284/Arsenal-set-for-talks-with-Colombia-star-Juan-Guillermo-Cuadrado
Double £57m swoop for Balotelli and Cuadrado. :drool: http://www.arsenalstation.com/2014/06/24/arsenal-chiefs-trying-to-secure-57m-double-deal-report/?
Cuadrado is not going to cost £28 million.
Klaus is right.
In other news, a few of those nonsense sites are linking us to Xherdan Shaqiri. Some of the articles are predating his hattrick against Honduras.
You can't beat a hat trick against Honduras for generating links.
He is linked quite strongly with Liverpool, Di Marzio who is supposedly a reliable journo says he is close to joining them.
Would be a fantastic signing for them, and also us if our interest is true.
Very much still prefer Alexis though
How would Shaquiri be a fantastic signing for us? He wouldn't even make our first team IMO, and I think it is debatable if he would even make Liverpool's first team.
He's clearly talented but I don't see it when I watch him. All I see is a dwarf body builder

Beg to differ. He is better than Podolski as a left winger in our system, much better. Better than Cazorla on both wings.

I'm with ya on that.
Cazorla is on a completely different level.
😆 Better than Cazorla... It would help if Shaquiri would look up from the ball once in a while. That way he would at least occasionally be able to spot a run.

I've noticed that about him too. He works like a plough horse up and down the field and then ruins a perfectly good attack by playing a blind final pass. He's as bad as Ashley Young.

44m of your British pounds for Arturo Vidal. Great midfielder, but would be surprised if Arsene did that.
Mind you, I can also see him thinking - "hmm, Theo will be like a new signing, and I have Yaya and Joel emerging to challenge Giroud. Arteta isn't getting any younger so what I really need is a top, top, top class midfielder."
worth it, but never going to happen
