So, rumor has it we're in for the Bolton defender Gary Cahill.

No idea how good he is, does anyone else know?

Good, but nowhere near the likes of Gallas or Toure. he'd be a squad player for sure.

A Bolton centre back?

Oh jeez, if this materialises, after Wenger saying he is looking for " Outstanding quality, along with experiance ", I'd have to accept our standards dropping as a whole.

This is worrying: arsenal scouts have been at bolton all year long? That's news to me... anyone can verify?

for ****s sake we are better than Cahill. 20 million could get you a world class defender. Oh my days some of the rumors we are getting are just awful.

We can get Zapata from Udinese for less. Real Madrid have been reported in Italy to offer €12m for him. Cahill, Chiellini, Zapata...!? Hmmmmmmm!

Cannavaro leaves so except for Pepe, Metzelder and Ramos there's not much cover for CB. Plus Ramos plays more RB I think. Must admit I haven't payed much attention to them this season. Find them annoying so I stay away. ;-)

or even Hangeland for 8 million! 12 maybe for lescott? 10 for jagielka? 6 for upson? good, dependable english defenders(if thats what one goes for..) all better than cahill.

As if the link with Cahill wasn't bad enough, 20 million? Britain must be devoid of journalistic talent...
 

truth_hurts

but Holding’s hair transplant was painless
Cahill is actually quality. Would do a solid job and to be honest i'd trust him more over the course of the season then all of our CBs apart from Gallas. Do agree though that we should be shooting at another defender of Gallas' quality or better. 20 million is ridicolous though, no Bolton player would ever be sold for that sum!!

If theres anyone to blame, its graeme souness and abramovic. Souness was probably the first to slap a ridiculous price on a player and abramovic was crazy enough to take him up on the offer with damien duff. Then all managers realise they could do that too... and tottenham decided to do just that...disastrously. :D

Arsenal Quotes

"Surely what will be their last attack.

A good ball by Dixon, finding Smith for Thomas, charging through the midfield... It's up for grabs now! Thomas! Right at the end!

What an unbelievable climax to the League season"
