Three players that want to come to Arsenal. 26 June, 2007

Firstly I’d just like to say I’m not going to depress you with loads of pictures of Henry in the Barca strip and all that. If that’s what you want to see there’s plenty of other sites around showing them. Sorry, but I haven’t quite got over him yet.

Ryan Babel:

“Nothing concrete has happened. Next season I definitely play at Ajax. There will be a time that I will play at Arsenal. But there is nothing at the moment.

That is a quote from the man himself to a Dutch website. He also said that all the rumours linking him to Arsenal are just rumours at the moment but it’s interesting him saying ‘I will play at Arsenal’. So he obviously wants to play for us and surely him coming out saying this isn’t going to make the people at Ajax too happy and maybe they will get rid of him if they think his focus and commitment isn’t with Ajax.

His Dutch side won the under 21′s championship but all I’ve heard from people who had an eye on him was that he didn’t look good enough. He had flashes of good play but didn’t really look anything special overall. He seems pretty sure he’s going to Arsenal even though he says he’s had no contact with them…hmmm. We’ll see what happens with that one.

Another player who’s wants to move to Arsenal is Carlos Tevez. He says he’s exited about the possibility of Arsenal but adds he would also be interested in a move to Inter Milan. I’m not really sure whether I want Tevez; towards the end of last season I saw he is technically quite good and does know how to score a goal. He took time to adjust to the English game but I think he sorted that one out towards the end. He says he likes the Premiership and it would be good if he could stay in London and play for Arsenal. Whether or not we want him is a different story but I’ll leave that one up to Arsene. It is certainly interesting though.

Also, the Auxerre full-back Bakari Sagna has got an eye on a move to North London. He says he’s spoken to Diaby about the club and Abou said he’d like for Sagna to come. Auxerre have said there is a low possibility that he will be leaving the club however Sagna said he will not let them stand in the way if Arsenal do come in with a offer for him. I don’t know whether we actually need this player but the squad is looking very thin at the moment and I think he would be a nice little addition to the squad especially with our luck with injuries.

So there are three decent quality players who are licking their lips over the chance of moving to Arsenal. I’m sure all of their clubs will not be too happy about these recent quotes but oh well, at least they are letting it known that they want to come. I’m sure Arsene will know about this and maybe he’ll have to have a little think about each of them.

There is one player that looks likely to come though, and that’s Anelka. I’d just quickly like to say he can fuck right off. I don’t want him here. However it’s looking a strong possibility and I’ve heard he was at Arsenal last week on a good source. If he does come then I’m not going to be his biggest fan and he’s certainly going to have to prove himself to win me over. More on that one as it develops.

Right I’m off, see ya.
