Arsenal mate says he is a good player and needs a fresh start. I am quite excited about the prospect.

Just wished it was a done deal before Newcastle and West Ham start sniffing about.

Oh deary ......this article basically says that Hegazy has NO pace - therefore it seems we're doomed to be playing very deep again.
Yawn.

Big Dave was not that pacy !!, I remember Beckham of all people saying once, he may not catch you if you get round him, the only problem is you need a road map to get round him. Ally Robertson was not that fast either if my memory serves me right. I am more worried about his injury record.

Yup......I see that it CAN work with a slower CB, but to me it seems like we're going to line up AGAIN with a very deep lying defence, content to absorb pressure and give the initiative to the opposition all game.
Hopefully I'm wrong.

Ok. No surprises there. WBA getting the shakes over £10m asking price for Gibbs. Say hello to West Ham or other as they step in and steal.

Samadoria bid for Wilshere!!

Wenger's comment is interesting though, in saying he expects Wilshere to stay, "But once he is ready, when he comes back, he will not be far from practising with the team." Just how near/fit is he?

How can WBA think that they are going to get an experienced premier league player such as Gibbs for less than £10M. They are living in the past and are thinking like a mid championship club, if they are not careful that is what they will make us.

I wonder if they go into their local and still expect to pay £1 a pint.

Given that we paid £12m for Rodriguez, who has started 12 games in 3 years, i think we'd probably be aware of the going rate for Gibbs. Probably just paper talk / negotiation. Although I'd be very surprised if we got him, as he is proven at this level with a top side and we don't have a history of shelling out the money required on wages for this type of player.

But we'll see...
