re: Arsenal Football Club 2011-2012 Season Thread

For some reason, I feel slightly optimistic about our chances of holding on to him. He's less mercenary than Nasri, less homesick than Cesc, and hasn't displayed the same desire to venture elsewhere that others like Henry, Vieira, et al did before their departures.

If he merely finishes out his contract with us (plays one more year) he'll be top 4 scorer in club history. If he signs a multi-year extension (4 years or more) he will challenge Henry's record.
