Transfer Rumours 2015/16

Chilean media (la Sampa) are saying our £21m offer for Vidal has been accepted. Actually praying this is true as only himself and Pogba are players I'd really want us to sign.

I'd like to think it isn't true. Purely for the fact that Pirlo already needs replacing as it is and Pogba being increasingly linked for a move too. Surely replacing 3 of the 4 starting midfielders isn't being considered.

Arsenal have signed Juventus midfielder Arturo Vidal on a five-year contract, according to trusted Chilean transfer insider Hernan Feler, the same man who first broke the news of Alexis Sanchez’s deal last summer.

Be gutted if Arsenal get Vidal so cheaply

Apparently the Vidal stuff is bullshit. The journo hasn't said that, neither did La Stampa.

Still not happening, mind. But it would seem strange that we're passing on Schneiderlin so easily.

If Arsenal win the league after a close-run challenge with Chelsea, Mourinho is not gonna be happy.

Bet it happens too.

Sweepstake for when Cech first gets injured and what it will be?

BBC reporters on Twitter confirming the £28.6M bid too.

He's a bit of a dick, but a character, and we need one of those - especially in defence.

He is fantastic, and EXACTLY what we need back there. Pretty sure it will never ever happen though.
