Expiring Contracts - Summer 2009

Re: Players whose contracts expire in Summer 2009

Um, yes, I noticed that. The point is that we need someone cheap and readymade in january though, and I'd imagine van Bommel is a type of player who appeals to Wenger. Who cares if he's only gonna be here for one and a half or two seasons then? We've got a great winger in Walcott anyway once he's back. It's when he's missing and Nasri's injured that we're suffering.

not likely since he's 31....

Silvestre? More coal in the stocking then.

yeah, but he was bought as a backup (only by injuries that he started so many games already)... plus do you REALLY want to use Silvestre as a yardstick for bringing in 31 year olds? judging on performances, we'll never sign another 31 year old, ever... LOL

we need someone in the midfield as a starter... i am thinking that Wenger wont be getting van Bommel as a starter..

i dont dislike van Bommel as a player... tough as nails with a bit of a nasty streak (or more than a "bit").. although, has had his share of run-ins with us in the past

just dont see it happening... wouldnt be against it though...

It seems Olic will be joining Bayern Munchen in summer, he passes medical and only official announcement has to take place.
