If United cant motivate Nani to get back to the high standards then arsenal won't.

You don't just buy into footballing ability you buy into personalities and characters which have to fit into your squads, it's called motivation and its why we went unbeaten in last 11 games when we needed to because of the careful purchasing

Plenty of teams have been in that position of needing a strong run and the group may have been good enough footballing wise but failed mentally and together.

Arsenal hope to end their nine-year wait to sign Gonzalo Higuain this week by making a club record £22million offer for the striker.

Sportsmail understands the Argentina international has privately agreed to make the switch to the Emirates Stadium this summer.

And the Gunners - who are also confident of keeping Bacary Sagna and Laurent Koscielny ahead of next season - will this week formalise their interest in the Real Madrid star, who has been told he is free to leave the Bernebeu.

Talks between Arsenal officials and Higuain’s representatives have progressed well and it seems all that is left is for the two clubs to agree a price.

In addition to smashing their transfer current transfer record, the £15million paid to Zenit St Petersburg for Andrey Arshavin, Arsenal are willing to make Higuain their top earner on around £150,000-per-week.

The Gunners have kept close tabs on the 25-year-old forward ever since his breakthrough into River Plate’s first-team in 2004.

Flop: The disappointing £15m capture of Andrey Arshavin is Arsenal's current record transfer fee

Arsenal explored the possibility of signing the French-born Argentinian in 2006, but Real Madrid beat them to the punch.

But Wenger’s long wait to work with Higuain now looks set to end this summer.

Arsenal maintain a strong interest in Wayne Rooney and Stevan Jovetic, but the Higuain deal is viewed as the most realistic.

 

 

This has been gathering pace and seems to have some legs. 

Still nothing official until its on our .com
