United have officially bid £25m for Cesc.

Honda on the verge of joining Milan. Cavani in Paris for a medical. Jovetic close to a deal with City. LFC put in a bid for Shaq.

Lots going on today!

Honda is sick. Watched him dismantle Zenit the other day. Had to check out Tymo's return to mother Russia.

Napoli owner Aurelio De Laurentis said that once PSG sign Cavani, Ibra will be sold.

Eta: if Madrid is going after Ibra, that could explain why they haven't moved for Suarez yet.

Not 100% sure how I feel about this. He's a great player, no doubt but it seems kinda rushed after the Thiago fiasco, although rumor has it that we never put a bid in for Thiago. Unless of course he was out back up plan all along.

I guess either way, the tears of Arsenal supporters will feel good if it happens.

It won't happen. United will have to bid at least £40m to make it happen.

considering you can't get him unless we don't want him, there won't be any tears. and that price isn't anywhere near his worth. if you did get him, it'd be at a much higher price which would help us too.

confusing attempt for you all with the crowded AM spot. sure hope Moyes doesn't think Cesc will play deeper...been a long time since he's done that.

he needs to stay at Barca another year and win La Liga and the CL. we get a ~£5m bonus if that happens

It's a very confusing bid all things considered

the other day pundits were talking about a double swoop for jovetic and negredo to city. personally I think it is one or the other. also I prefer jovetic.

If you are an Arsenal fan would you rather have Cesc back or Suarez?

When Cesc left Arsenal, he was a top 10 player in the world IMO. Best MF in the PL, arguably best player. His star has diminished some in a secondary capacity at Barça.

Suarez is quite possibly the best player in the PL right now in a position we need more than a CAM, though creativity at either spot is a needed addition that both can provide.

Thinking about it coldly and rationally, Suarez helps our team more so I'd give the slight edge to him. But I would be unable to contain my joy if Cesc, who is my favorite player, came home. The emotional side would trump for me, and likely for most Arsenal fans. A lot of Arsenal fans have said they don't want Suarez, but also a lot are still pissed with Cesc about how he left. For me the joy of his return and the awareness of the burden being a fan of the team Suarez plays for (i don't know how you 'Pool guys do it) would say I'd rather have Cesc back.

It's not a burden, it's shame.

It would be interesting to see if Cesc still has it if he can get out of that terrible situation he is in at Barca.

i was mainly referring to a buddy of mine that is a huge arsenal supporter, not necessarily people on this board.

I have the slight feeling that Moyes and to a degree, SAF, isn't 100% sure that Cleverley is the future and that would be the reason for the bid.

It's not hard actually. At least for me, I can't speak for everyone. I rather enjoy how much people hate Suarez (or LFC because of Suarez)
