"NO"
see, the way i see it is that Arsène would pay the TRUE market value of a player, not the over-inflated reactionary Market Prices...qs said:brianfrance said:I can see West Ham paying £12m or Sp**s paying 16, not Arsène.
What Arsène would pay and whats market value aren't exactly the same thing

Wenger has a degree in Economics... im sure he realizes what supply and demand are... point is, Gamst's "demand" is apparently not all that high... which is why Wenger would never pay over the odds for him... he's decent, but not really what we need, and its not like you can look at his "potential" and pay more for it since he has pretty much reached it already... he's no spring chicken... (in terms of Wenger's usual signings)asajoseph said:There is no "points:skill ratio manual that mangers can use" - and each player available for sale only has one market value.
Simple supply and demand, really...
to me, we're saying the same thing in different terms... it means Wenger's market value is not the same as BB's market value... because his value of the player gives him his own "market value"... BB's market value will always be higher to start with than Wenger's, since they of course want to get the most money for him....asajoseph said:Blackburn will have a sell price, and Arsenal will have a buy price - if they can't make the two match, there will be no sale, and a market will not have been made. Just because Arsène doesn't want to pay over a certain amount for a player, doesn't mean that he's got his 'market' price right, it just means that he doesn't value his utility to Arsenal highly enough - and that's not the same thing.
LOL, yeah.. this is what happens when WE ARENT SIGNING ANYONE...Asterix said:You know we're bored in the transfer window when we start debating economics.....
that's exactly what i think of too... i dont know why they do that, since any formal bid will have to go through the club, so they would know whether or not there was real interest.... agents really need to shaddupBobo D.

Arsène Wenger has denied he is bidding for Blackburn winger Morten Gamst Pedersen.
Media reports on Tuesday linked the Norwegian with a move to Emirates Stadium but this was flatly denied by the Arsenal manager when the suggestion was put to him ahead of this evening's game at Sparta Prague.
“No [I have not bid for him],” he said.
Thats the end of this story...
