The financial clout of Juventus??

I think Juve have him in the bag. We have to break the shell with more money upfront for Higuain over Juventus. Whereas, they are ready to pay in installments I mean, why would Real Madrid want to be paid up front by us when they can offer them a smaller amount of money as well as an enticing, once in a lifetime 100 year payment plan?

Sorry people, Juve Have better weaponry than us .And have outmatched us

All Joking aside. 'Don't Worry people, We Got This.

They took Bendtner and Anelka on loan. They want to pay for Higuain in installments ffs. Don't make me laugh

Didn't Juventus spend £55million (£34million net) last season and Arsenal spent £46million (-£3.4million net)?

Just saying, are Juve' as poor as everyone thinks they are?

Fair points, however, just because they spent 'heavily' last season, it does not mean they will this season. We've offloaded some players which has freed up more wages that we can put towards better calibre players and, although we have to believe it to see it, Gazidis has said the board will review egalitarian wage structure. Arsenal as far as I'm aware are in a better position financially and are playing in a more stable and more competitive league compared to that of Serie A. Plus they already have Llorente (when he goes), Anelka, possibly Pirlo, Chiellini, Marchiso and Giovinco on fairly high wages. Are they really going to pay Higuain's £100k+ p/w too?

I'm not saying Juve won't get Higuain, but we surely are in the better position to get him when you take everything into consideration.

Pirlo is probably on astronomical wages due to his free transfer.

The facts are that Juve have spent more in recent seasons and offer certain players very high wages.

The facts are that Arsenal have made net profits on transfers in recent seasons and have a strict wage structure.

The facts are with Juve, the speculation is coming from Arsenal fans but it's all based on pure speculation rather past trends - things can change though.

Juve can fack off, Higuain is ours. We will loan them Bendtner again if they can afford him.

What makes you so sure those signings are not paid in installments over the next 52 years? Just because they signed players worth that amount, doesn't mean they paid it all in full

They signed Peluso for 4m the other day, TO BE PAID IN INSTALLMENTS. Can you believe it? 4m?

Haha! Could you imagine not having £4,000,000 in cash? I mean what kind of lazy on-benefits piece of cràp doesn't have that kicking about.

Smoke and mirrors when it comes to Juve. They did not spend anything near that.

In fact a lot of Italian clubs have been raided for tax evasion and money laundering today.

Italian football is bankrupt and you shouldn't believe any intra Italian reported figures.
