we're targeting cabaye, michu and Ashley Williams apparently. plan Cs are kinda depressing. (I don't necessarily hate those three but we're going to massively overpay for them, if Swansea even sells at this point)

Yeah I think there's zero chance of signing Williams AND Michu.

They might sell one of them but both would kill them.

@CaulkinTheTimes Arsenal have made a bid of £10m for Yohan Cabaye. Dismissed as "derisory" by #Nufc and will be rejected if it hasn't already.

It is ridiculous. Waiting means paying more. Cabaye is atleast 15mm. Lets try and buy him for 2/3 of his value!!!

I generally wouldn't want to spend more than 15M on him but yay desperation

these injuries are really crushing my optimism for the season. I thought we could hold the fort until new arrivals showed up. now the arrivals are underwhelming and injuries have gutted us.

sagna, rambo and rosicky are all major doubts for fener...(correction, seems like those two and gibbs are fit to travel. baccy still a question mark)

Although they might sell michu/williams if the rumored £35m is true.. what a turn around on michu.

Bought last season for 2m, sold for 25ish.

I'm under the impression kondogbia has a clause?

Is Arsene sporting director as well? Isn´t the club freaking out about this offseason´s lack of activity?

The fans are, they certainly better be. All this cash, one free transfer.

Nevermind. Apparently BBC is late on that news and Newcastle is asking for 20m£

Is Cabaye really the right guy to go after anyway? He's more of an 'attacking' midfielder like Ramsey/Wilshere right?

You know if we bring anyone of ANY decent quality in I'm not going to complain

Depth is crucial and I would welcome Cabaye, but we NEED DM help now.

yeah he's that. a lot of people want David Dein back, but that's never happening.

we're wholly reliant on Cazorla for a consistent offensive attack. I wouldn't mind another attacking player. I think we're in for Herrera as well.
