    • Arsenal are lining up a ₤10 million bid for Barcelona midfielder Yaya Toure, according to reports…

      Gunners boss Arsene Wenger will be looking to bolster his options in central midfield over the summer following the departure of Mathieu Flamini for AC Milan.

      The January sale of Lassana Diarra and the declining form of Gilberto Silva leaves Arsenal rather thinner in the middle of the park than they would like, sparking speculation that Wenger will splash out in the transfer window.

      And according to The People, the Frenchman has pegged Toure to fill the void left by not only Flamini’s departure, but that of former skipper Patrick Vieira in 2005.

      The former AS Monaco man has been linked with Arsenal several times over the last six years, due to the fact his brother and fellow Ivory Coast international Kolo Toure plays for the club.

      And with the Toure the elder set to receive the captain’s armband next season, and Barca preparing to enter a new phase under Josep Guardiola, the time could not be riper for Toure the younger to make a ₤10 million switch to North London.

    • he might not have spent tonnes of money on players like his counterpart in the EPL but this time everything seems to be stacked against his team hence i wouldn't be surprised if we see him making a couple of big money spending this off season to boast his team next season chances as well as getting the moral up for the entire team

    • Sigh. I don't agree with this purchase. I mean when the African cup comes we will be without Eboue, Toure and Ade. The last thing we need is to have another person leave mid season

      Doesn't matter ... African cup is held once every 2 years ... I think we should just solve the problem at hand first ...

    • yaya is a good buy.

      not a player who score many goals.

      nevertheless, steady and make less mistake.

      If we can get Yaya we can kick manure's ass ... Arsenal slip out of the title race just because we have a thin squad

    • Arsenal slipped out of the title race because Adebayor couldn't score for a certain period of time.

    • Haha, perhaps. He almost single-handedly helped Man U maintain their superior goal difference advantage over Chelsea.

      Already, he has hinted that he wants to score 50 goals next season.

      Anyway, think Theo Walcott will play a bigger part in Arsenal's season next season?

      I hope Walcott plays more, he's good.

    • That's what I hope too because it would be exciting.

      Maybe Arsenal should sell Adebayor to allow Walcott a chance to play regular football just like how they sold Henry to allow Adebayor a chance to shine. Haha.
