Cavani to arsenal

Lewandowski would be a great signing. Has good link-up play, passing, shooting, strength etc.

batmanu, i think you're being drastically over optimistic about the number of players - and players of that quality - you think we'll sign.
i assume this is if song leaves as well? if he did i could only see us signing one of m'vila and sahin. if he doesn't leave i don't think we will sign either.
the mirallas rumours are relating to him going to everton. and i cannot see us signing a RB.

Batmanu Mirallas is on his way to Everton. I can't think Arsene will make the Eduardo mistake again. His agent has been touting him across the premiership. I can't see that as a genuine link.
I don't mind Cavani at all. When I talk of Llorente is because of availability. But I don't mind an TOP CLASS striker to be honest.
We have to make the splash this time.

Sahin/Song transfers are not related. We were after Sahin before Barca were even interested in Song. Maybe we won't sign M'Vila and Wenger will put faith in Coquelin but after Coquelin we have no back up. It would be suicidal not to buy a replacement for him.

Song will go for £17.5m. And the obvious replacement will be M'Vila.
I think Barca want to offer £15m. We want £20m. Agreement will be £17.5m.
I don't see how Sahin fits in after we bought Cazorla.

Sahin plays deeper than Cazorla. I don't think Wenger wants to bank on Wilshere's fitness again. And Arteta hardly has a shining injury record himself.

yeah but we have diaby as well.

-----------------------
We have plenty in that position. Diaby and Ramsey [not my choice] behind Wilshere and Arteta.
We do need a holding type player.
Sahin does play in the deeper position but in my opinion it was a smokescreen to move the Cazorla deal. Sahin would have played higher up at Arsenal.
It is tremendously difficult for a deeper player to settle in the premier league. To be honest we have never replaced Gilberto. Flamini came close. So I had hoped we sold Song next year but Barca have pressed the button this year. So we may have no choice.

Who are the sources?

If Arsenal wanted to cash in on RVP then why would they go for Cavani who would be £35m+ ??? Wenger feels Pod & Giroud are already replacements so hold tight for another long frustrating campaign
