Víctor Valdés

Valdes made some great saves, he's a shot-stopper. He flapped at a few crosses too, and has little presence on aerial balls/set-pieces.

Which is why this would be a disastrous signing. Valdes is good in some areas but he's absolutely atrocious on crosses and set-pieces, and given the general playstyle of the EPL that would only spell disaster.

He doesn't fit the bill in any ****ing way, especially not with Begovic available this summer. What a train wreck of a signing he would be, absolutely horrendous.

This. Such a useless keeper, and I'm surprised he's lasted at Barca for so long. You'd think with all the unnecessary signings they make every summer, they'd at least improve the GK area.

This is anti wishlist material, I've never rated him as a GK, hes always had a blunder or two in him plus the fact that he has little to no presence from set pieces means he'll fail in England.

At present it is about 60% likely Victor #Valdes will leave #Barca for #Arsenal this summer. Contact made from English club.

...stumbling block is the asking price. #Barca want £10m (bargain), but #Arsenal are convinced they can get him for £5m (bargain)...

Of course, #Valdes could still change his mind and remain with #Barca but his agent, Gines Carvajal is keen on #Arsenal

This. Awful keeper, he's made so many mistakes over the years for Barca and he's terrible at dealing with crosses and set pieces.

Would cost us repeatedly if he came here I think. It really is a bit of a joke how he's been first choice for Barca this long, I guess it's because they usually walk over most of the teams in the league and don't care much for defending or buying good defensive players, as proven by today's match.

Wenger and the board are really the cause of arsenal's problem sorry to say because they never learn that there is a difference between cheap and downhill players and quality expensive players. the reason why Sp**s and everton compete with us in the league is because we all have the same quality of players, Please no valdes,adler,ceaser and we should be aiming higher and looking for a quality young keeper in bergovic,minolet,ruffier.
