Re: Ricky Alvarez
He retweeted an Arsenal fan saying 'come to Arsenal, the fans love you.' Then undid it later in the day.
Bizarre.

I wasnt that excited about it either but losing a target is losing a target.

Re: Ricky Alvarez
Nasri and Cesc are still here, we appear to have signed Gervinho do we need Alvarez?? the fact Inter have signed him suggests he is a talented player but I won't lose any sleep over not signing him.

Re: Ricky Alvarez
My problem is how much it says about our club. We've been linked to him strongly for a month and a half. Even concrete stories about directors going to argentina to meet their representatives. Yet Inter swoops in the last 2 weeks and seal up the deal immediately. What in the world are they doing??

It happens in football, case in point us snatching Ramsey despite him being shown around Old Trafford and allegedly agreeing personal terms wit them.

Re: Ricky Alvarez
Zanetti is a legend for someone like alvarez, not easy to say no to Inter actually, they are a very attractive option and more so for argentinians, just like how wenger attracts the french here.

Re: Ricky Alvarez
Not hugely disappointed on missing out, Jonathan Wilson made a case that in March/April he was valued at around 2.5mil euros and this is mainly just hype. Not saying it's true because I haven't seen him play but the hype certain grew on this forum after we found out Manchester United were interested.

Re: Ricky Alvarez
At the price mentioned, it's a pretty big gamble for Inter. He's a very unproven player, but with undeniable talent. If he starts to tear it up in Italy that tweet about his Arsenal sueño will haunt us....

Re: Ricky Alvarez
Inter's deal for Alvarez very structured: €5.7m up front, €1m after 1st 5 games another €1m after 10 games another €1.5m after 15. Total €9.2m
Inter will then apparently play a friendly with Velez worth €300k + have another €2.25m to pay to player + in tax. Total cost around €12m
Probably why it's structured like a mofo.kalleTheMan said:

Re: Ricky Alvarez
Yes shue, they've cambiasso as well but the word is that alvarez was set for arsenal and that zanetti personally convinced ricky to join inter.
Ibby, jonathan wilson is very highly regarded i know but from what i've seen of alvarez , he has taken rapid strides and exceeded all expectations this season, you could make out that the lad has world class potential in him which means i would be willing to take the risk that ricky alvarez is. But unfortunately he chose inter, it's a definite defeat for us as we were very near to sign him.

Re: Ricky Alvarez
the amount of money we spend on sending scouts, directors etc around the world to make stupid offers. We have no funds left to actually buy.

Re: Ricky Alvarez
Honestly, it's not really that shocking for him to pick Inter once they came in. It's a bit like a young French player would have jumped at the chance to join Henry, Vieira, Pires at Arsenal a few years ago.
Erp, shocking that I forgot Cambiasso, great player.There is light said:
