DM Claiming AW has Dzeko as a contingency plan if he cannot get Suarez. Personally at the end of last season I could have seen him going but he has had a decent pre season and I just dont see him going anywhere now.

I can, he'll want to play! Jovetic, Negredo, Dzeko and Aguero doesn't fit... especially given you usually only play 1 up fornt and esp given that that person is Aguero 
Rooney is a possiblr but if we cant get Suarez then Dzeko would have to be the main targte IMO

We will see what happens but I cannot see him going anywhere. If we did sell him it will be to no one in this country imho.

Gustavo to sign for Wolfsburg.
Arsenal have become a parody club now, utterly embarassing.

Its OK, Liverpool seem to have said 50m+ previously for Suarez, Arsenal fucking around again apparently preparing a 49m bid. Idiots.
Can't believe Huddlestone's gone to Hull, he's far better than that

Wolfsburg have said there's no deal in place for Gustavo. However not even sure that we are genuinely after him. So much media bullshit.

Right so today we have
"Manchester united are ready to put another bid for 40m for Fabregas"
"Manchester united are going to bid for Mesut Ozil according to German tv"
"Manchester United are bidding for Fellaini"

Just wait and see who's wearing the shirt at the end of the window. No point even reading the shite in the media.

I don't see what the fuss is with Arsenal not signing any big names.
Their books are balanced, they have up and coming kids and they qualify for the Emirates Cup year on year.

And as we speak, Spurs confirmt he signing of Capoue.
Once again, another non-tier 1 signing (...) yet once again, another player who would improve our squad.
Starting to get nervous now tbh.
Dont get the Gustavo to Wolfsburg rumours, they wont challenege for anything in the current FCB/BVB domination period yet he supposedly has offers from CL clubs :/

I can see a repeat of the other season where he panic buys 3-4 players at end of window.
And Arsenal will do the same

Jesus, just looked at our squad... we have 18 players + Diaby (perma-crocked) + Martinez, Miyaichi, Gnabry, Sanogo etc.
Of that we have Rosicky & Gibbs who tend to be quite injury prone, of that we have Vermaelen and Monreal out for the first few weeks and now Arteta and Sagna look like possible injury misses for the first game... WTF is our bench gonna be?!

Has Sanogo been your only signing so far?
Desperate times, the season starts in 2 days

There were reliable sources yesterday confirming Gustavo had chosen Wolfsburg.
Can add that to the list of missed opportunities

Luiz Gustavo to Asrenal for 18m (unclear whether that is € or £) seems like its well progressed.
