I bloody hope United don't bid for Arshavin. £24million for a 27 year old who had two good games at a European Championships. What a joke. Poborsky ring any bells? We don't even need him at all.

I agree 0272 Arshavin's £24M price tag is a joke. It's not like he's particularly young and a wonderkid for the feature (like Messi, Bojan etc) He's 27 for god sake... if he was worth tat much he;d of been bought for that like 5 years ago

Different players peak at different times, he could just be coming into his prime and his best years are still ahead of him.

He's still got 3 good years left in him, I rate him. He'd be better off at Chelsea anyway, since United have Tevez. We don't actually have an 'SS' as such yet.

With Ballack and Lampard if he stays, I do not know how he will fit in,eg Balllack Deco(& or)Lampard Makelele/Mikel Kalou/Wright Cole/Malouda Drogba/and other striker that may be bought

We don't actually have an 'SS' as such yet. £24 million for 3 years of good play is ridiculous, but I suppose it is chelsea so they'll pay anything if it means a little bit of success. I totally agree with 0272, Arshavin is incredibly overrated. Yes he's a decent player, but he's nowhere near as good as people are making him out to be

Jack, if Arsenal signed him, they'd have an unreal flat 3 behind Adebayor.
CM: Fabregas
AM: Hleb AM: Arshavin AM: Rosicky
CF: Adebayor

Should be a matter of days before a deal is wrapped up with United.

You'd rather have Dean Ashton than Huntelaar? ...

I'm sorry but I don't really find Arshavin that good of a player, tbh the only game I saw him play well was for Zenit against Bayern Munich in the UEFA cup last season. £24 million is mind boggling especially for a player who is 27 years old.

I have not seen a lot of Huntelaar, but RVN recommended him for Madrid so he must be good.
TBH, I hope Utd get Berbatov.

I'd rather have either of Huntelaar, Bent or Berbatov over Ashton any day because basically Bent is faster and a better finisher than Ashton, Huntelaar has more pace, clinical finishing and skill to burn also Berbatov is probably the best out of the four but his age is against him being 28.

If forced to decide between Ashton and Bent, I would choose Ashton. He does seem to have some quality about him.

Yes, he has a lot of skill, scores goals and would be a great buy for any team. It's not likely to happen so I'd want Berba or Ben Z before Huntelaar, out of the three that could join. More leaning towards Benzema. Haven't seen anything special from Huntelaar, don't see the fuss.

Ashton's cut out for a mid-table premiership team at best. Whereas Huntelaar's scored something like 70 goals in 80 games for Ajax ffs.
