Álvaro Morata

How soon is Wenger expecting Morata to make the step up? If this is his idea for progression upfront then I'm admittedly skeptical. However, Morata is a very talented forward, and he could turn out to be a gem.

Think we should be looking at a slightly higher-profile striker IMO. I'm not against a left-field signing however.

Cross doesn't know anything. Spent all last summer traveling with the team and still got everything wrong.

Cross gets a fair bit of transfer news right. Again, it's not only Cross, reports from Spain are saying the same.

Arsenal still want Morata.

Yeah I know, I just can't stand John Cross. I know he's not the only one writing about Morata, but what he says about transfers is basically meaningless.

He was right about Aurier, he kept saying our interest has cooled as Wenger has doubts over him.

Don't like Cross either, think his non transfer stories are terrible, especially when we aren't playing well.

I wonder if we were ever interested in Aurier though. The stuff from Gazidis' Q+A suggests we maybe never were. Cross could have just be backtracking.

Anyways, it doesn't matter. If Morata ends up being our only striker signing it would be underwhelming, at least on paper.

Psssh.

That's right, we're going to contact the 2nd assistant manager who doesn't deal with transfers. John Cross is a tw**

The rumours that dogged him for a large part of his time at Arsenal can now stop!

I was left "wondering" with this tweet, though:

@freddie
Me and my wife.

Hardly brimming with delight. But then I remembered Freddie's Scandinavian and realises the futility of happiness, sunshine and solicitude.


So, um, Alvaro Morata. I don't think we should sign him.

Wasn't Barrymore also married?

anyway, ffs Freddie, what's wrong with you mate. Could literally have his pick of any lady Gooner in the world, and he goes for a Sp**s fan? :|

This is true, but I didn't believe/care about the rumours back then either. In 2002 and 2003 I saw Ljungberg at the same restaurant on two occasions and he had an attractive lady with him both times, and they even seemed to be making physical contact. But back then mobile phones didn't have cameras so I couldn't invade his privacy.

You sure? A few inches to the right <a class="postlink" href="http://metro.co.uk/2014/06/09/maria-sharapova-wows-paris-by-parading-french-open-in-mini-skirt-and-heels-4754949/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://metro.co.uk/2014/06/09/maria-sha ... s-4754949/</a>"

Win.

Would rather have Morata for 4 years than Masha for 4 seconds though.

Sharapova is one annoying *****, her screaming, horrible tennis, fist pumps, dirty tactics etc. She gets on my tits.

Unbelievable tug fodder though :D No, she gets on mine too. Borderline fcking cheat. It's all designed to own the court and make your opponent feel like a trespasser.

How much you lose on Simona? :lol:

Anyway, I'd seriously like Morata here. Ive seen what his ability could produce for us now and the scope he has for improvement. If he's free to go with with no catches, we should seal the deal. Outside of the likes of Balo and Cavani etc, he's the natural choice.
