Mole_Toonfan Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 And he asked for £60m for Giroud. I don't know anything about the club's finances but I bet that Mbiwa goes for a lot less than that. Exactly when everybody and thier mother knows that Giroud has a release clause for around 10-15m...... Anyway its not exactly a problem, just go and snap up Douglas for 5m Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Doesn't M'Biwa have a release clause too? (around £4/5 million iirc). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Doesn't M'Biwa have a release clause too? (around £4/5 million iirc). Supposedly, but its not confirmed unlike Giroud. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if we do go for him in the end, I'm confident that it will be for a sensible price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 All the talk about Vertonghen and Douglas recently makes me think that we are going to sign Mbiwa if any of these three. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bard of Byker Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Their chairman is a nutter who's detached from reality. http://u.goal.com/61000/61081hp2.jpg He reminds me of Freddy Shepherd. http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-images/Arts/Arts_/Pictures/2007/03/12/lesdawson460.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 confused, thought Unbelievable had basically said Douglas was in the bag? what changed, can't understand it I did? I think he's realistic in terms of price tag and willingness to come here. I don't think I ever said it was a done deal? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Don't think anyone knows, the only nailed-on one seemed to be Pieters but his injury record looks a worry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxfree Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Wenger now "very keen" on Mapou. Beew. One of Mbiwa, Douglas and Vertonghen would be good, but really prefer Mbiwa. Matt Spiro @mattspiro Reply Retweet Favorite · Open Wenger very keen on Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa. Montpellier won't stand in their captain's way.

Mole_Toonfan Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Still not quite sure why Arsenal need a CB..... that is'nt thier problem, lack of any decent fullbacks apart from Sagna and no real destroyer in midfield, and depth in attack are more pressing issues for them imo.

Ketsbaia Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 It's strange - even though Douglas is the perfect fit, I find myself wanting Mbiwa more. It's like being back at school on Valentine's Day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Of those linked I've only seen Douglas play, never been overly impressed but he definitely has all the attributes to become good, needs some coaching. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mertesacker is a bit dodgy and Djourou is s***. Perhaps shifting Vermaelen to left back? Mertesacker is an international defender of many years for a reason he will come good, Djourou is not shit imo atleast for a 4th choice defender i cant think of that many better 4th choice defenders and Verm is shit at LB imo Never once been impressed with him in that position. To me they should buy some Sagna back up, a proper LB, Cesc replacement( that might be Wilshere tho), Podolski and perhaps a DM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
