Absolutely.

Falcao to Man City according to Di Marzio. Negredo has been linked with Valencia all summer, surely himself or Dzeko are on their way out?

dahat · 30-08-2014 10:13AM

Falcao off to Man City it seems, reliable account on Twitter running it.

KERSPLAT! · 30-08-2014 10:34AM

Jaysus BBC had Falcao to Madrid as "completed". Has to be Negredo out, didn't Dzeko just sign a new contract?

So yes, Falcao is definitely off to City.

He's wrong so much. It's unbelievable that he has 103k followers.

BBC gossip column is exactly what is says on the tin, only take their actual articles seriously.

And normally I do but they don't normally have "completed" unless it's confirmed, in my experience.

Anyway, my point is that it is/was there

They are just saying what that Italian site has said, nothing more. If and when Falcao to City is done it will be on the front page top and centre. Not the gossip column

Song has joined West Ham from Barca.

I actually find that bizarre, surely he'd have had better offers?

KERSPLAT! · 30-08-2014 02:48PM

Thought Liverpool were looking at him?

I'd say this is right about the level he is at. Been saying it in the Arsenal thread he was overrated by many I was happy we sold him when we did my only suprise was it was Barca who bought him.

He always lacked awareness and discipline. He was never in a million years going to make it at Barca.

Ye could have actually used him this season, there is no physicality in the Arsenal midfield.

I agree Arsenal need a DM but Arteta is a far superior player than Song.

Yes but relying on him is insanity.

Statement of fact there? I disagree, Song is far better defensively to Arteta.

Not really have Flamini for back up who is better than most give him credit for plus most Arsenal fans haven't given up hope of signing a DM.

Well obviously it's not a fact this is boards all about opinions

.

I disagree Song could be far better defensively if he had the discipline but in his time at Arsenal I could count on one hand how many brilliant performances he gave.

Mostly he lacked discipline and was often caught out of position and more often than not when that happened he was seen strolling back when teams attacked with pace. The fact he popped up with some nice assists in his last season glossed over his deficiencies for many.

HazDanz · 30-08-2014 04:24PM

Song was always more concerned with making hollywood passes over the top than being in position for counter attacks.

Good player mind, just not a great player. His link up with RvP during his Arsenal time got him off the hook for his defensive frailties.

No way. Arteta is a great reader of the game, and while he's not the best DM in the world, he's still far better than Song. The amount of times we got caught with Song out of position is countless, the man has no discipline whatsoever.

Diaby played 45 for the u21s during the week, he'll hopefully get 15-20 games this season being conservative, but you know what he's like. still might make a signing there too.

but there was none last season either but that's not the reason arsenal didn't win the league.

Harry Palmr · 31-08-2014 10:15AM

Anyone expecting or hoping for a super duper shock signing sensation tomorrow?

Falcao to City on loan? Reus to fill Liverpools tricky right back position? Ryan Babel to Burnley? Schneiderlin to Spurs?

31-08-2014 10:17AM

I see Arsenal to hijack loic Remy transfer from chelsea?
