Arsenal DIDN'T bid €16m for Kiessling

There is no source on this rumour, most likely trash

I don't see why we shouldn't be prepared to pay 25 Million or more for a player. Times have changed and prices have been pushed up. You can't base all your transfer dealings on clubs being forced to sell through financial downturns like Malaga. I don't see the point in us spending 15 million on a player that could be a risk when we could spend 5-10 more and get a safer bet and a better player that would do a lot more for the team, it's just throwing money away really. We can't settle for mediocrity.

Yeah the article seems to have been made up anyway.

As you were.

"the last time we bought someone from a bigger team you might have to go back to the henry signing from Juventus."

Were you 'excited' at the Henry signing then? A 21/22-year-old French kid being played on the wing, and who had failed to impress in Italy?

Very quick in the box with his reactions and a very good finisher who can also head the ball well.

who's gonna cross it to him??? we can barely take corners properly let alone cross balls to head

Finally looks like we are making some signings and yet fans are still not happy. At least wait until we have got up and running properly in the transfer window before we give up hope

Were you 'excited' at the Henry signing then? A 21/22-year-old French kid being played on the wing, and who had failed to impress in Italy?

i was cause i already knew of his talent, we had Bergkamp who didnt do much with Inter, we had Vieira much the same with AC Milan & Kanu had come in before henry & score some fantastic goals but already before signing henry u knew he was a far better player than Kanu.

Another targetman? No thanks.

so there was nothing in the rumours then?

No 8bit
