Barthez is out for a month, many are calling this the perfect time to get a replacement. Im happy with Fab and Carroll, but I heard Carini's name thrown about. His move from Juve to Arse is on the brink of collapse because Wenger wants him as back-up but he insists he should be on the first-team. Worth having a look in ?
Carini deal hits snag
- Thread starter Gazza
- Start date
not if hes crying about having a guaranteed first place. Fab is still no1 and Carroll more than adequate backup
I have a sneaky feeling, call me paranoid or whatever, that the Carini decision to sign a contract could have something to do with the fact that we are apparently in the market for a cover for Barthez. He would be guaranteed first team football for @ least one month, and if he performed well he may establish himself (don't slate me for this, I have every confidence in Barthez and want him as our first choice keeper) i'm just stating Carini's possible line of thought.
It's just a possibility, but hey maybe i'm just talking out of, the, well you know what I mean.

Yep, we know what you mean.
The Carini deal was supposed to have been signed and sealed two or three weeks ago. I don't think it was not because he waited for another club.

Bit twitchy about this one. I'm still having sleepless nights from our last Italian keeper!
Taibi the sequel - ahhhhhhhh <img src="graemlins/nervous.gif" border="0" alt="[Nervous]" />
Lets stick with Carrol and wait for Fab. If his injuires persist though then we'll have to make a move for a top keeper (preferably someone who can reach the crossbar !)

Carini is Uruguayn. And he's already proven himself more than Taibi surely, at international Level and Champions League here and there.
And he's not coming anyway.

He sounds a bit like Barthez, but fed up with being a reserve keeper, so its understandable that he wants a first team place, it shows ambition.

And our last success signing from Seria A was........?

Wenger's Knickers Hit Snag, pictures of the side of his arse in today's Star.
Unfortunately I think this might be a case of wishful thinking.

Well, we don't sign much from Serie A but other clubs have had excellent results from doing so. The fact that we got Taibi (who never really got much of a chance, although admittedly, I was happy not to give it to him!) doesn't mean there aren't good players there we could use.
Carini is a fantastic keeper and, given the choice, I would pick him over Barthez for the short and long term. However, we bought Carroll and Steele in the last ~6 months so I doubt we will look for yet another keeper.

agreed Kneel. hey am sure we can borrow the Incredible Inflatable Man Bosnich for a season that'd go down well.
He'd be an excellent eventual replacement for Barthez. Maybe in a year or so. A loan would be ideal for the moment.
Talksport said both parties were in talks last night but no agreement has been made yet, and his name is not on the Arsenal programme. Sounds like they may go for Poom.
There are rumours now that we might sign him.

I think he could be a great signing. That Italian expert for talksport was raving about him a couple of weeks ago.

Im starting to think these United rumours could hold a little water. <img src="graemlins/nervous.gif" border="0" alt="[Nervous]" /> Wenger:
'The Carini deal is over. He has chosen another club. Maybe you will see him somehwere else in the Premiership.'
Would be the ultimate smack in the face if Fergie justjumped in and took him from under their noses. Id be laughing my arse off. Just think of the look on Whingers face. <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" />

carini is potentially world class...outside of buffon and frey, i can't think of a better young keeper in the serie a.
Wenger: "I am delighted to have signed Fabian Carini on loan. He is a young international goalkeeper with outstanding natural ability and a great temperament and will definitely strengthen our squad as we look forward to next season."

What's the world coming to when clubs make baseless announcements!
TribalFootball:
Juventus are expected to loan goalkeeper Fabian Carini to Manchester United for the coming season.
The Uruguayan failed to agree terms with Arsenal last week, allowing United to nick in and sign the 22 year-old.
A Juve spokesman told Tuttosport, "We expect to agree a deal today."
The Turin giants may insist on a sweetener by striking a deal of first refusal on United's Paul Scholes.
The last line is clearly bollocks that they've added on themselves, but it looks like we may have a new backup keeper very shortly. Sir Alex was right, everyone does want to play for United.

Carini,
Brown, RIO, O'shea, Escude.
Sounds great to me, has the potential to become the best defense in the world, though it would take a few seasons to mature. Which is why you have to gradually move to such a defense.

Arsene Wenger has conceded defeat in his bid to sign Juventus keeper Fabian Carini on loan and has confirmed that Carini could well be Old Trafford bound.
"I think you will find Carini is going to our great rivals," Wenger said at the weekend
Wenger said on Thursday that a problem had arisen over personal terms:
"It's over. We will look for somebody else and I will make a decision before the West Ham game next week. Maybe he is in Man United at the moment. The personal terms will not be a problem there.'
Meow.

Gary must earn his place back. This injury could be a blessing in disguise. He hadnt been performing to his maximum potential. Now he must work and fight of the competition for places.
Yeah but with Wes out 3 months i cant seem to find another rb than Gary.
For the next month and a half Phil will be our RB.
Gary is back in 2 weeks.
