Okay, Arsene didn’t really say that, but he did say that the player is a handful for any defence in the world… “Nicklas has made big improvements since the start of the season. He has become an important player for this club,” Wenger said in the July edition of the official Arsenal...
Well, it’s getting close to it now, but Arsene did admit that Kolo may leave:
“We will see what’s happening in the next 24 hours, nothing is decided yet. We have seven centre-backs and I am in the position where I have to play some in midfield but of course Kolo is a very good player and we will see what will happen in the next 24 hours.”
Ouch!
Kolo Toure is reportedly flying back to England from Arsenal’s Austria training base to finalise his transfer to Manchester City.
Sky Sports News report that Toure is returning to undergo a medical at Eastlands after the two clubs agreed a fee of £16m.
It’s thought that Toure may be unveiled as a City player by Friday. If so, Toure will be the second Arsenal player in as many weeks to leave for Eastlands after the £25m transfer of Emmanuel Adebayor.
Yes, that little idiot that is probably the worst mannered, most ungrateful and selfish person in the WORLD has said this today:
“I have friends at City and I hope they do really well – and that they finish above Arsenal. I think it’s going to be hard for City but they could do it. They may click straight away and it’s magic. I hope they do.”
Any chance of Chelsea getting relegated? Or anyway that Cashley would miss the World Cup?
Last season we were never offered a decent amount of money for want away striker – this season we managed to secure a whopping thirty million euros for him… he’s pleased too.
“Of course, yeah – that’s why I’m here,” he said. “I’m happy being here. I had a good discussion with the coach. I had a good discussion with the chairman of Man City. What they have told me is about the future.”
“That this is a team, maybe in one year or two years, that will be one of the best in the world.”
“We have to fight for the club, we have to fight for the team,” he said. “As you can see, the fans believe in us that we can bring them something. That’s what we’re going to fight for now.”
So who will replace the Togan at the Arsenal?
Hughes on Adebayor move:
“There is a deal to be done, possibly, but it’s not been concluded as we speak.”
It looks like the Togan could well be on his way.
Aaron Ramsey looks forward to the new season…
“There could be a number of teams involved. Look at Manchester City, they are trying to buy more players which will only make them better. Maybe they will be involved but we will have to wait and see. The Premier League used to be two teams going for the title but it has come on a long way since then. More teams are challenging for the title now.”
And looks forward to the battle of the top teams…
