Yann M’Vila

Any more reports linking him with us that I can cling on to?
 
I expectwe will here there is no value in the market then splurge £25m plus on a Jorge Mendes signing.

We dont seem to have £10m odd for midfielders but have £16m odd for wingers and defenders.

When is the last quality central midfielder Fergie signed?
Don't say Scholes!!

2007 I think - Anderson and Hargreaves. Since then we've recruited in every area of the pitch many times over (wingers and strikers particularly) but no new central-midfielders of any type since 2007 - even after the two Barcelona defeats. I've given-up hope of us ever signing a central-midfielder again.
 
Perhaps le arse have given up, due too us possibly snapping him up ;)
 
Well there isn't much you can do if a player's contract is up and he's getting offered silly money elsewhere. We simply can't pay what others can afford. I wonder how Flamini looks back on his leaving...he got a lot of cash but not much else.

:lol:

It's not like you guys won much since he left, there's hardly anything for him to regret.

He is out of contract this summer and I believe Milan are letting him go. So he is out of contract and not many top clubs will be willing to take a punt on him due to injuries and poor form in Milan. Is winning trophies the only reason a player should regret leaving?
 
Slightly annoyed we're not seemingly interested. From what people have said, he seems like the exact kind of player we need in the centre of the park.
 
Possibility why Arsenal are pulling out of a potential deal with M'Vila:
“@1DarrenTulett: L'Equipe says Sessegnon is a 'priority' for Arsenal and clubs are negotiating. Sunderland want €22mln! #afc"
22m Euros :lol:
 
Sessegnon is probably worth €10m, don't forget he's a PSG reject.

Another little attacking midfielder. Arsene must have a fetish, or something.

There will still be plenty of mid-level clubs willing to throw money at him.

The way I see it, there's really only 3 real seasons to be a footballer

1) Play for your favourite club,
2) Win titles, ideally with the club you support,
3) Money, loads of it.

So if Arsenal isn't the club he supports, I'm sure winning titles and making as much money as possible would be his career goal, which is a shame as a midfield trio of Fabregas, Flamini and Song is probably the best in the league and you guys would probably have won at least a FA cup or two if they had stuck together.
 
I'm sure question marks about his attitude and discipline are keeping some clubs from going all out for the Frenchman
 
According to Sports.fr, M'Vila seems to be too expensive for Wenger so he could end up at United.

I haven't seen enough of him. Is he good enough to be a automatic starter for us against quality opponents?

That site any reliable Jaap?
I can understand him being too expensive for Wenger, but didnt think/know we were interested.

Yes, very promising young midfielder.

Would cost a fair bit though.

Would be a perfect addition to our midfield. If he's too expensive for Wenger though then I doubt we can spunk 20m on him if we're after Hazard and Kagawa.

Would be more than happy with Kagawa and M'Vila over just Hazard if pushed to be honest.

A summer with Kagawa, Baines, M'Vila would be great.

A summer with Kagawa, Baines, M'Vila and Hazard would be muppet explosion.
 
Not a big fan of Baines but the other 3 would be brilliant.

I like him for Everton He's just one of those players that you're not sure about until he plays for a big club. I don't know whether he would add anything defensively as opposed to Evra and isn't as technically good on the ball, but his delivery and set piece ability is certainly better than Evra.

True, but for the prices quoted I don't want him. I know with him being english the price is always higher but it seems a waste of money.

If Clyne is coming in I'd like to see him given a go or even Fryers if he doesn't get loaned out. Hopefully if Fabio has a good year out on loan he will come back next season and really challenge for the starting LB spot.

That would certainly be a signal of intent for both the premiership and Europe. :drool:

Multiple orgasms is what that would be.

That's easilly £85m + of investment. I don't think, with some sales, that is out of the realm of possibility.

If we sell Park, Berbatov, Anderson and 2-3 players about the same level as James and De Gea - we could realistically get from £20 to £25 mil

Net cost of £60 mil - would love for that to be true, but doubt it.

Esp as we are said to be close to signing Nick Powell at £4 mill

The most realistic is 3 established players + Powell
 
The most exciting part of this would be he actually plays in midfield.

For this reason, I think we're out.

Net Cost of £60m transfer, but how much wages?
 
I'd prefer Martinez but M'Vila is a more likely signing and as long as we get 1 of them I'd be very happy.
 
We haven't even been linked to him have we?
 
Probably not much more than today - but we have never had a net spend of £60mill - I doubt that will change this season

Considering our net spend over the last 3 years has been -£12,800,000 we could surely afford it.
 
We haven't even been linked to him have we?

The midfielder Rennes Yann M'Vila not always know where he will play next season. Only certainty is not in his first club, as stated by the player on Friday. " Currently, I do not know where I'm going. I do not even know which club is interested in me , a certified M'Vila at the microphone Eurosport . While Rennes had been in the European Cup I'm gone. Last year I stayed for the Euro. Today is a good time. " The latest rumors sent him to the Premier League , Arsenal or even to Manchester United .

I hope we sign him... I'm doubtful though, and can't tell if all the Arsenal rumours have any substance or are just hopeful supporters, unlike the Podolski rumours which seemed to have some substance behind them.
