Rubber bullets 1,183 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 If we are keeping Drogba he really is not needed, will just be an expensive bench warmer after Drogba gets a five year contract extention and stays untill his 45.

Henrique 9,133 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 I think for him its better sign for Arsanal than Chelsea. But it will be really nice to see this guy here, specially right now that Falcao is not coming. Feroze 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RX8 40 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 EXCLUSIVEGunners in for £14m whizkid LukBy ANTONY KASTRINAKISPublished: Today Add a comment (67)Arsanal last night tabled a £14million bid for Anderlecht superkid Romelu Lukaku.And boss Arsene Wenger now believes he can beat rivals Chelsea to the 18-year-old striker's signature.SunSport can reveal Lukaku's agent Christophe Henrotay met Arsanal officials in London yesterday.He was then expected to fly to Portugal where the Belgian club are based during pre-season, to talk to the teenager.Chelsea were hot favourites to land the 6ft 3in starlet, who is rated one of the top young players in Europe.He has hit 31 goals in just 71 games for Anderlecht and has already played nine times for Belgium.It would represent a major coup for Wenger if the Arsanal manager can pull off the deal.Spanish giants Real Madrid and Barcelona also made inquiries but Lukaku looked sure to sign for Chelsea until Arsanal moved in.Anderlecht are prepared to let him go for less than their £18m asking price.But a major stumbling block to any deal could be the fact that Lukaku's dad Roger stands to pocket 25 per cent of any fee.Arsanal are on a money-spinning tour in the Far East but Wenger promised he is working day and night to strengthen the team.It is understood that Gunners executives first spoke to Henrotay several months ago but only decided to firm up their interest in the last few days.The news will be a huge boost to Emirates fans who are waiting for a conclusion to the saga of Cesc Fabregas' move to Barcelona next week, after the squad return from China.

Hamilton 2,120 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Arenal rumours over here to now, Cfc bid €15M, but Anderlecht has to share €2M of that to other managment (like Lukaku's dad), so they would get €13M, they want to get €15M for theire own now..I can't really see him going to Arsanal, when it's obvious he loves Cfc and Drogba the most.. City i would believe (not that theire are rumours about that) cause Kompany and Boyata (two close friends) are over there allready..

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 If Arsanal offer more money, obviously Anderlecht will accept their offer.. Then he'd be more likely to sign for them. Unless we do make an offer, that he's informed about, then he'd probably reject the Arsanal move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike 12,049 Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Your 17, you don't own a house, right? His house could be a gutter. You can kind of own a gutter, right?I lived in a gutter for 7 and a half years and I know what type person it turns you into. A strong one.I'n sure this has been said before but I'll say it again: Do we need Lukaku when we have Sturridge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
