Does this stuff really work? IMO players don't really learn like that.He'll pass on so much to Coq, Elneny and even Wilshere too.

Campbell was an emergency mid season stop gap and Lehman was only 33 I believe (same as Cech when we signed him). And also a GK, which is quite different in how they age.*Cough Sol Campbell and Jens Lehmann cough*
I'm sure it was Cross, and not that it matters as the El Neny deal was well reported before anyone at the Mirror jumped on.

Oh yeah I forgot about that!What about when Jens was 40 odd
First post in a long time!
It could be a great move since we're losing Arteta, Flamini and Rosicky which is a huge amount of experience but if he were to arrive it must be with another central midfielder who can actively make a difference on the pitch, regularly.
Yeah but we'd be short imo if we rely on Elneny. And I think Zelalem should go on a season loan to German,Italian or Spanish top flight team.We've already got Elneny.
Realistically, I'd be happy with the simple promotion of our most advanced young player, I.e. AMN, Zelalem.
Wenger may be gearing up to reinforce that central midfield, who knows.
I don't see the problem with this, we could give him a one year contract and benefit from his experience. As long as his wage demands remain reasonable and he's willing to take a reduced role.
No reason we can't get both.Rather get Terry. He has more to offer and in a position that we might require another option in.
I think the issue is you actually have long-term viable options this Summer.

If you ignore those attainable targets to go for a 35 year old Carrick (personally I'd love it if you did). Do you think money-giants in City, United and Chelsea are going to hold back in the market after the disastrous seasons they are having? City in particular will seek to get stronger than ever with Pep. Now's the time to spend after the Summer you had and whatever move is made will reflect where you are as a club. Best case scenario is getting both.

I'd rather Carrick than Gundogan every day of the week. Whoever buys him is going to be left with the next Diaby, there's a reason that clubs seemed reluctant to go for him last summer trust me.
Have you seen him this season?
