Karim Benzema

[Asterix]

New thread so that the old Benzema / Ben Arfa one doesn't become too confused as it heads towards 250 pages in the summer.

I'd love to sign a striker like Benzema, particularly as we were supposedly interested in Torres but priced out, but there's no chance Wenger will spend the amount of money needed.

So this thread shouldn't be too long eh? :wink:

It'll get to 30 pages and then the Mancs will sign him. That will make them a scarily good squad...

Benzema is probably a good replacement for Saha. Players love joining ManU for crazy amounts of money to ride the bench and win trophy's.

 

[Gazza Martinez]

Damn Asterix, when I saw the new thread I thought you had a scoop for us.

When ever i'm driving through the countryside, as I sometimes do, and I happen to pass a meadow and in that meadow lies a horse who is clearly deceased, well strike me down but all I want to is just kick it, so i get out of my car, walk up to the horse and just kick till my heart is content.

 

[Asterix]

heh

I will start a leonel messi & christiano ronaldo thread shortly.

 

[Asterix]

You've got a point. I'll lock it until another rumour pops up. meanwhile, if people want to discuss Benzema they can use the wishlist.

Mourinho will try to annoy Arsène Wenger for old time's sake, and Carlos Ancelotti for next season's sake, by making a bid for Emmanuel Adebayor.

Wenger is considering replacing the Togolese striker with Lyon phenomenon Karim Benzema even though paying around £40m would provoke a potentially ruinous identity crisis in the Arsenal manager.

£40m

I have better chance sleeping with scarlett johansson then us signing Karim Benzema, lets put it that way.

 

[Dez]

dont let this happen - for the love of god... its eto'o all over agen itll just break my heart.

 

[stuart]

We wont sign him. Im not even going to bother reading the link. He wont be coming to Arsenal, to be honest im not all that bothered

[Zico]

I'm looking forward to this line-up of midfielders and attackers next season:

-- Benzema -- David Villa ---

Podolski - Yaya Toure - Silva

---------- Inler ------------

With all these players, one wonders where our own players will fit.

[mjkgooner]

its bull hocks

 

[thegame24]

was it really necessary to open another speculation thread when its so blatent we wont sign him.

 

[Jasard]

LOL! Thats brilliant, written as a joke right?

 

[USArsenal]

ugh.. why bother reading this.. we will CLEARLY not sign him... although, to be fair, his stock probably took a bit of a hit from the Euros... but still way over our range
