Maybe it's because the team's main striker is now broken until the new year. Hardly bizarre at all.

Yeah, it's absolutely bizarre if true. Saying we don't need a striker all summer only to do a desperation bid for a player who's been available all summer with 48 hours left in the transfer window. What the poo poo.

Remy makes perfect sense when you just find out your main (and realistically only) striker is injured for the next 3 months. Who else are you going to get? Falcao is going to Madrid, we've signed Balotelli... there's not many other decent attackers left.

Wenger announced it on Wednesday. It was known since like Monday, and it's still weird as hell because Wenger adamantly said he didn't want a striker after that

Wenger pretty much just confirmed there's been approaches for Campbell for loan or purchase but they've all been turned down.

quote:

Wenger, who hasĀ lost injured striker Olivier Giroud for three months, said: “We have had a lot of offers for Joel and have turned them all down.
“There are plenty of clubs – I don’t know exactly how many because once I said to my assistants, ‘He will not go out on loan’, if somebody calls them they don’t even tell me any more because, when I say no, it’s no.

Alessio Cerci has been left out of the Torino squad and says he's leaving, with Arsenal chasing apparently. Is he good?

Yes, he's a fast goal scoring winger that is great at creating chances. But he's very much a winger, not a striker.

I think you'd have to pay more than that for schniederlin now, Southampton really don't want to sell him.

Out of all the Southampton players he was the one I wanted most of all. Him and Henderson in the midfield would win all the balls. It doesn't surprise me that he's the player they have put up the most fight with.

They're sat on a pile of money from the other transfers as well, they're not exactly hurting and I think that the intent it would show would mean their fans would revolt if Schneiderlin went.

Is Podolski likely to leave? If him and Campbell stay then you guys still have a few options while Giroud is out.

On the Arseblog it was claimed he has been uploading pictures to his Instagram that appear to be in Germany, though it's unclear if they were taken recently or not. Which is about on par with UniLad as a transfer source.

To sign Falcao, we'd have to sell Negredo who has a broken foot, so I don't see how feasible that is at all really

Even so I don't get the Falcao to Man City rumours. It's not like you're missing strikers. All Spanish papers are reporting that Ancelotti doesn't want Falcao because Benzema fits perfect with Ronaldo/Bale and Falcao is too good a player to keep on the bench.
