Could be a good fit but I don't see Arsene going for it.
Agreed. I don't really have anything to substantiate this, but I have this notion that Arsene probably doesn't rate US players at all. Maybe it's a bit unfair since no US player that has come thru has every really fit the Arsenal system very well. I agree 100% with the OP though. I would prefer Bradley over Cabaye for several reasons. He's younger, he meets Arsenal's more immediate needs, and he brings a level of pitch awareness/consistency that could really help in promoting better defensive shape that is so transparently lacking with something like the Ramsey-Wilshere double pivot. We saw Aston Villa have so much success orchestrating counters because there was frankly no presence at CDM. And Arteta is obviously not one when fit either.
However, right now, it seems, it's clear Arsene wants CMs that can rotate and confuse defenders; ergo, he will sign the more versatile Cabaye.

That entire last post made a lot of sense to me.

On ESPNFC today, Alexi went full retard and suggested Bradley come back to MLS.

Bradley is pretty good going forward and can make a pretty nasty through ball when given the chance, aka Theo's best friend.

Arteta or Mikey?
Honestly, I would say both at this point.

Thanks for giving substantial reasoning for your critique.
