Why would Arsenal being interested in Draxler indicate Wenger's off in the summer?

There's plenty of reasons why he might be gone, but I don't think interest in Draxler is one.

Don't think it will be because of Draxler :D

Meant because Sanchez is their best player and if he leaves Arsneal in the summer than Wenger is as good as gone IMO.
 
Van Dijk is good for PL, but he won't be the best in the world.
After Mangala, Otamendi and Stones, this would be 200M spend on central defenders for them.
He will improve them, but I'm not afraid as if they would have taken Bonucci or Ramos

Noone can sign Bonucci or Ramos.
 
It was an example.

If Chitteh came and signed Thiago Silva I would be worried.

The same for Chelsea.

But Van Dijk is a good footballer but won't resolve all their problems
Ye, i got that. Just wouldn't happen. Thiago Silva is a different story. His contract expires in the summer and is yet to renew. Rumors of Juve (surprise, surprise) and Chelsea.

I don't really think that Paris can afford to let him go. They've issues in this area since David Luiz left this summer, letting them a bit thin with only Marquinhos and young Kimpembe. He's just putting pressure on the club to get a better contract. I bet that he will still play two more years at Paris before moving to China or Brazil

Think he's stated that he wants to renew as well. You never know, though.
 
Wanted utd to sign Van Dijk in the summer to partner Smalling, I'd be disappointed if city get him, then again I really wanted Leroy Sane too for the future but I guess with mourinho we won't see signings like sane and under him we'll probably miss out on weigl too.
 
Van Dijk will be a good signing for City, unfortunately.

Jesus, we get rinsed for the amount we've been spending but they've spent £150million or more on three CBs and still have a shaky defence. VVD will take the spending to £200million roughly on 4 CENTRE-BACKS, not attackers! One of whom was binned off for being a flop, one has looked just as mediocre as some of us suspected he was, defensively. Otamendi is just Otamendi. Decent but not great.
 
Jeez, £50m for Van Dijk, he's a decent defender having a very good season. Too many teams have fallen into traps like these too many times.

Definitely. He can play on the ball and is a monster physically, but that defensive system Pep implements is for masochists.
 
Really hope they don't sign Van Dijk. I want him at Chelsea! :(

He's better than decent and was very good last season as well.

I'm not buying it, there's 6/7 of these types of players every season who get inflated way beyond their value then go on to achieve very little from their careers. Every season there's always something "different" about these types of players and why they'll go on to be a success etc but in the end they almost always fail. You're free to your opinion but I just think in a year's time no one will mention Van Dijk as a player worthy of playing for a top four club.
 
What is it with City and buying defenders in the 40m-50m range it seems to be every window.

And really £50m for V.Dijk :lol: . Decent defender worth nowhere near that fee though.
 
That's ridiculous. City have got to stop buying the very good Lately's and try some fecking scouting.

Strange thing to say considering he's basically playing on the same level as last season.

This, it's not like he came from a club no one has ever heard about either, he was already forging quite the reputation at Celtic. Why does it take clubs to let the Southamptons of this world take a punt on them first?

It's rare to find top clubs take punts on center backs. Managers want a known quantity there.

We took punts on Smalling and Jones while Rio and Vidic were still around and starting games.

City had that youth player on loan at Celtic that actually played alongside Virgil for 30 odd games. You would think they would have noticed his talent when they were keeping up to date with their own fecking player.
 
Why aren't we this lucky ffs? Why every other club gets to sell their deadwood to Chinese clubs for ridiculous cash!

Guess we don’t have any such players with no ambition (except financial), especially 25-year olds.
 
If I would have to name 1 player, Depay comes to mind... Young maybe getting a final payday?

Memphis actually not a bad shout. Still think he'll have a couple of seasons in a top league, if it doesn't work out, who knows... Young will stay with us as long as he's wanted. Really seems to love it at the club. However, if José can't promise him any more playing time next season, again a possibility. Can't see many English players moving to China though. Not crazy about moving abroad based on the past 20 yrs.
