The Wish List

[P_Gunner]

I know it may be blasphemy on these boards, but what would you guys think of Dawson for CB?


*prepares for harsh criticism*

 

[est]

Would be hilarious if he came and won titles with us like Sol!

He is kind of a crock though, isn't he? I wouldn't want an unreliable player, especially at CB. Nevertheless, decent player. Better than Silvestre...

 

[Clrnc]

He is a very good defender. I am seriously very impressed with him for the past few games

 

[Captain]

Here's my tip for Arsène: Jonathan de Guzman for free (his contract ends this summer).

and a quality tip it is too. Why isn't his contract being renewed?

He wants to leave.

Feyenoord have no money whatsoever, so can never pay what he can make at another club.

I fear he's going to Chelski, who have been following closely.

Whoever signs him will have made a great deal. Lots of potential.

 

[Bossa]

I think that he's a good player but not at the level of Chelsea and Arsenal yet. I think that he'll be off to Valencia or a club of that stature.

Don't be silly Outlaw, no-one's going to buy our keepers.

 

[Clrnc]

Don't be silly outlaw, if we sell Cesc we need some good players in exchange

The funny thing is that you've just spent 127 million and you've probably made the team worse.

Do you think I should have spent more?

 

[ricky1985]

I'm confused Outlaw, why would you want to sell our two best players?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The players I really hope we go for (in order of preference);

1. Joe Hart
2. Gary Cahill
3. Eden Hazard
4. Gregory van der Weil
5. Felipe Melo

.....And we've been pretty strongly linked with all of them, so there's a chance. Chamakh I'm counting as already singed.

The players I'm convinced are gone in the summer;

1. Fabianski (well, him or Almunia, no way both will stay)
2. Senderos
3. Silvestre
4. Gallas
5. Eboue
6. Traore
7. Merida
8. Eduardo

 

[qs]

Don't think Eboue is going anywhere but if you look at the rest of that list it all looks reasonably likely. Doubt we'll bring in more than £10-£15m for them though.

 

[ricky1985]

4 of them are free transfers, so we're talking Fabianski, Eboue, Traore, and Eduardo. I think we could get decent money for Traore and Eduardo, perhaps £10-15M, with Milan and Lyon pretty strongly linked. Fabianski would be minimal, but, if Eboue were to go I reckon we'd get a good fee for him, £10M or so - and when you consider that he said this the other week, with regards to Roma's interest; "All players want to play week in, week out and I am no different, but I have no comment to make." - I'd say it's a definite possibility.

Get out Benitez!

I was just curious to see how we could possibly line up in their absence. To be perfectly honest, if Wenger was a manager who was to utilise every single penny made available to him, we could improve even if we cashed in on Fabregas. Just saying...but really I just felt like playing this dream team game. The key as always is to use the full scope of your imagination.

 

[Zico]

I like where Outlaw is headed, at least on the buy-side of things. Give me a superstar, Wenger. Give me a Benzema or any other guy whose shirt I will buy. I am willing to have only so many shirts with Fabregas 4 on the back.

 

[Clrnc]

Arshavin?

Many people asked for a superstar and we have got Arshavin. He IS a superstar, he was europe's most coveted player in 2008. His performance lately hasnt been good, but he is still a star player
