Lukas Podolski

We haven't been linked as strongly with Hazard, Rex. Not for a long while.

Either way, the interest is there. Now we just have to wait and see, for all we know Real Madrid may swoop in at the last minute.

Rex

Seems to me that he has been destined for us since he was 17. 🙂

Rex

Hardly linking Podolski to us more either that Per has come out and said he has NOT texted Podolski about a move here.

Lu pod is ours

Daily Mail/Blid saying it's a done deal now. £10m.

FantasticMrFox

Bild saying its done. 13 million euros/ 7 million a year in wages. http://www.bild.de/sport/fussball/podolski/transfer-zu-arsenal-london-perfekt-23041792.bild.html

I wonder if this implies anything about Walcott's future (assuming the rumours are true).

Walcott is playing his way out the team anyway

FantasticMrFox

Its probably more to do with Park and Chamakh leaving.

I don't know what to make of it really, but it definitely seems legit.

On Klaus' theory - I have to admit, I'm not against selling Walcott. He will be a very good striker for someone else, I have no doubt at all, but not for us, because we don't play in a way that suits his style and his strengths.

Must admit that looks tasty.

Klaus

Love the idea of a diamond-shaped midfield. If we were thinking about playing that way we would probably be doing it already, though. Just put Walcott in there instead of Podolski.

Almost as tasty as podolskis left foot, which is like Thor's hammer.

This is a brilliant signing. He is experienced, has the physical and technical qualities to thrive in England, is a big enough character to shoulder responsibility and won't shy away from it. He's German, so he thinks sensibly and I can see him and rvp being such a handful

I'd be happy enough with that starting XI.
Could hang onto Theo and Gervinho to spring from the bench, plus Ryo and Coquelin could challenge hard for starting places and keep players honest.

£10.9m sounds a very reasonable amount.
How did we manage that?
Who else is buddies with Per?

FantasticMrFox

He plays as a winger for Germany right?

lorddulaarsenal

He's only a year to run and has been making noises about leaving y

You're the only other poster even slightly pleased by the signing, can't understand why!
