Billy Paynter to Leeds on a free

Good signing, 30-odd goals last season

[Terminal Boardom]

Van Persie, Eduardo, Chamakh, Vela. Decent 4 tbf.

You forgot Bendtner

[leww_rfc]

I said Decent 4...

[Terminal Boardom]

Worst kept secret of the year has Mr Toad confirmed as manager of West Ham

[papereyes]

Van Persie, Eduardo, Chamakh, Vela. Decent 4 tbf.

Eduardo will be off sooner rather than later.

Shame, as its his head that's 'gone'. He'll find a second-tier league (Portugal, Dutch) and score a metric shedload there.

Van Persie, Eduardo, Chamakh, Vela. Decent 4 tbf.

Van Persie is excellent, but injury prone, while Eduardo and Vela are probably not consistent 10-goals-a-season strikers and Chamakh? Well, I don't know anything about him.

Marouane Chamakh (Arabic: مروان الشماخ‎, born on 10 January 1984) is a Moroccan footballer who plays for Arsenal as a striker. Although born and raised in France, he chose to play international football for Morocco due to his Moroccan parentage. He has very good aerial ability, scoring many goals with his head.

Career appearances and goals.

Hardly likely to set the world alight at the Emirates then.

Nearly 1 in 4 goals ratio...he'll be lucky to get more than half a dozen in the Prem next season

[Row Z Royal]

And at 25, he's hardly in the "showing potential" category.

Sorry, but Wenger's still crap at buying strikers.

Sorry, but Wenger's still crap at buying strikers.

You're putting a solid shift in here, RZR.

[Smoking Kills Dancing Doe]

His records better than Adebayors was. Strikers don't score a great deal in France.

Personally think he's just what Arsenal need. Him and RVP would be a great partnership, if (and it's a massive if) RVP stays fit,

Yeah, soz about that. Got a touch of the Spaceys.

Paddy Kenny gone to QPR for 750k

Can't help thinking he is one who never trained on. Always seem to be non footballing issues clouding things. Maybe a reunion with Colin will do him good.

Swansea Jack is there any truth behind Wigan coming in for more of your players?
