afc Demba Ba

[Fighting Weight]

Anybody not happy with this for 7m? (its apparently been his buyout clause for a while, has been in the papers recently)

[Afroman]

was discussing this at work today..

Absolute no brainer imho.. We cant go wrong.

Even though I heard he has a dodgy knee.

But I am pretty sure he can do the business with the shitoffs we have as strikers at the mo.

[Fighting Weight]

He does have a dodgy knee, it was why he originally didn't come to the PL when Stoke were after him

He's played pretty regularly (and obviously well) since though

[The Infamous]

wanted this move but we are so unlucky i can see him blowing his knee up and we have a player on high wages kind of old with injury history on the books

joe cole being a example

i would pass

Would be in the fitness room with Diaby by the end of Jan

[Afroman]

Actually f*ck it..

To think these are the levs of players we are scraping for these days.

Faccccck. The real

[Turkish]

I'd love Ba at Arsenal right now. More than Huntelaar and Llorente.

[Seth Rollins]

Paper talk.

You want to be taken seriously you buy bigger than Ba. I'd rather Walcott up front than Ba.

[Seydou]

Do not want Ba, for some odd reason. We won't play to his strengths.

Rather have Cabaye and Sire Ben Arthur.

[Seth Rollins]

Cabaye>>>>>>>>>>>

Loool

[Fighting Weight]

Lol It's not a joke either

Ben Aurthur >>>

Beast. I had reservations about him not ever having had a truly consistent season but f*ck it

Arsene should go for him, the creativity on the wings / forward areas is shocking

Cabaye too

But in reality there is only enough funds for BA

[Seth Rollins]

You think? If Wenger wanted all three he could HAVE all three.

His problem is shifting the dead weight aka our bench on high wages. Some glorified Aston Villa/O'Neill situation.

[Fighting Weight]

Hmm maybe. I can't see in excess of 20m being spent though, even if Rosicky, Arshavin, Chamkh leave

Unless Walcott goes for maybe 15m

But then it'd result in the ever-thin squad still being thin

[TF S4DK]

If Arsenal are backing their manager.

Then the dead wood should be paid off and released January 30th, once their improved replacements have arrived.

[Da Luv Doc]

All this talk is annoying me. We need an Alex Song replacement. Our three midfield are too similar to play as a unit (until Diaby come back and boses). M'Vila is who we need.

Glad Rosicky is back, guy always wants to go forwards.

[gattsu]

lol@ relying on diaby

guy was ment to be out 3 weeks 3 months ago

[Lenny]

We look a different side with Diaby's dynamism

He can't have sh*t

[Captain Planet]

Lol @ saying we need Diaby back then saying we should buy M'Villa

They're a different pair of players

[TF S4DK]

at Wenger buying M'Vila now.

at Wenger buying M'Vila now.

ship has sailed

[TF S4DK]

As for Demba Ba, not interested, as it makes me think we really don't know what we are doing... Its a kneejerk signing, fits in with this topic tbh.

Ba was available in the summer, which would have made better sense.

He's 27/28, he's gonna want a 5 yr deal 80-95k, and this is for a player we aren't sure on overall ability & fitness.

Wenger won't touch M'Vila for the same reason he didn't Ben Arfa when Marseille wanted rid.

Wenger can't be turning up to talk about the national team, and when the issue of there lack of respect comes up, he's the one that signed the guy who currently is the signal of disrespect.

Someone else will take a punt on M'Vila, he'll mature and then we will look again but not wanna pay the fee.

[Fighting Weight]

Prob lead Chelseas line for the next few years now. Will have 20 + goals by the end of this season..

Still a very dangerous forward
