If RVP returns to arsenal do you guys think he should return as captain? Some people strongly feel that way , they'd accept him back but they don't want him to be captain anymore.

I don't care as long as he stays.

I definitely hate Busquets. Song is a great player, better than him. I think he fits Barcelona, so it's a good idea for them to show some interest in Song. 15 mil is too low, not that I would sell him any price but it is low.

Either way it needs to be decided soon. The start of the new season is creeping up and we can't leave this stuff into the season. Sell him or sign him soon.

We still have soooooooo many players to get rid of to fit squad size limits it's not even funny. I'm hoping Park, Squillaci, Bendtner, Arshavin, and Chamakh are gone soon.

And we could definitely get at least 20 million combined for those players, probably more, which could be used to buy a left-back.

20 what? :lol:

You'll have to pay someone to take Park and Chamakh off your hands.

We're not buying another left back. Gibbs is gonna be healthy this year! 8-)

As for squad size, it's not really a concern, I don't think. Some will be gone, maybe some won't. Either way doesn't matter, just don't register them in the squad, won't play games anyway.

We should package the decent with the crap. You can have Bentdner cheap, but you have to take Park too.

So you'd want Wilshere and Sahin playing together? No opposing team would ever touch the ball :D

Arsenal Mania, useful to find all transfer rumors and such in one place as well.

Reports today we've been in talks with both Kevin Mirallas, and Isco. Isco would be nice, looks a great talent. Mirallas would be better than Park for sure.

He should get a fair bit of time there, especially if they sell Victor Moses. Could be a big year for him.

Chamakh I think we could get 5-7 million. Arshavin played relatively well in his loan spell with Zenit, but if Wenger will not let him play in his preferred no. 10 role, there's no sense in keeping him. Probably another 6-7 there.

Squillaci is already gone, thank God. Park has never really gotten a chance so I don't see the sense in selling him yet.

Even if we get 10-11 million combined for Arshavin and Chamakh, it'd be enough to get decent back-up full-backs.

Get Sahin on loan with a permanent buy clause, and call it a summer if we keep RvP.

You guys bought Chamakh for 6 mil and all he has done since then is degrade his value. In what world is he going to fetch a million profit let alone be sent out for a million loss?

I really doubt teams will take him just because of his salary and you know.. the overall ineptness.
