I am at a loss why Liverpool want to sign Barry or Keane in the first place. If they do buy David Villa or Silva for the 30mil that they said they would then they will have an extra 10mil to splash around and a better team. Stick with Torres and Kuyt up front and then they can actually play Jermaine Pennant who is one of the most influential and underrated players in the Premier League. And why does Liverpool need a left winger anyway when they have Ryan Babel, one of the best in the world? However I wouldn’t mind if they signed Silva (who was one of the best players in the EURO 2008 competition) and played Babel up front but I think that Liverpool’s priority should be signing Villa or an equally skillful and awesome striker such as Roman Pavlyuchenko or Lukas Podolski or even Robin van Persie or Samuel Eto’o to partner Torres, not Robbie Keane.

De Jong says he isn’t going anywhere. Of all of the Hamburg players rumored to be on the move–Van der Vaart, Olic, Kompany, Demel, De Jong–De Jong moving on is one of the 2 (VDV) that will most impact the side, and 3M is waaaaaay to little for him, in light of his superb play at the Euro. If someone came along with 10M or so, I think HSV sells high.

Yeah, I agreed Ahmed – 3m for de Jong would be a steal for Newcastle or anyone who gets him. Either the Sun had it a little wrong, or Hamburg need to check their figures again.

i hope all this rubbish about arsenal spending 18 mill to sign a 27 yr old defensive midfielder are just that – rubbish. i watched de jong at the euros and he was 3 x better than the best i had seen of barry. please buy him or frings and get a central defender. sell adebayor and buy arsharvin and a goalgetter and d league could belong to arsenal if they gel quickly enough

Nigel de Jong is surely worth more than the money listed for him. For that amount even Arsenal might snap him up (and he’s good enough to play for them, I think).

i wanted to assures all arsenal fans the gape lefted by hleb will be easily filled by alots of talented midfielders we have,rosicky,nasir and denilson who will flourish middle part of our team with the endowed talents of cesc,but if mr wenger will read this column i would like to advice him to give senderos more priority in xi because he can match with toure and may be gallas should come from the bench, b’se we can see the way he failed to help les blues in european compentitions and the same he did to our team since he joined us,that man has a telent of criticize his fellows mates but he has nothing to inspiring the team.

i think mr. wenger should let adebayor move to barcelona or any other clubs wanted him and at the same time agrees the exchange term with eto’o because for my opinion adebayor is not a goal gater rather a ball holder, and if last time we had eto’o or van nestrooloy definetly one of them could score more than 45goals,ade is not fighter, i compared him with those students we call them spoon fider b’se much of efforts came from frabegas and hleb and most of his goals even blind person could netted them a typical example is that with millan or liverpol in uefa champions league.
