The price for the french kid soubds like it will be around £35 million. Still a heap but he sounds like he has a lot of potential so hopefully he can live up to it.

Martial was linked with Arsenal for a while hence the losing the plot reference. With FFP dead in the water the prices have been inflated again.

Petr Cech still the only signing the Gooners have made?

Welbeck has a better ratio in a much tougher league. And there's still plenty of time for us to make things happen tonight.

Name me one striker ever who has scored at less than 1 goal in 3 games in France and then gone on to become a superstar in England?

Thierry Henry he had a 1 in 5 ratio... It's a massive fee, but Martial has incredible potential, and is one of the best to come out of france since their golden generation. Meanwhile we have Theo Walcott and Giroud as strikers... Need to do something today.

Henry came to us as a winger.

Monarco need to sell too so its a matter of what you guys can negotiate.

Surely Arsenal have to go all out for Cavani if they want to accmplish anything in the PL and Europe this season.

Pretty much, i doubt we sign Cavani though, i highly doubt we sign anyone, which will be one of the biggest fk ups in Wengers tenure, the squad is so close just needs the final touches to get it over the line, but nothing has been done all summer. Lacazette, Cavani, Hig, better be in an Arsenal Shirt by 8am tomorrow morning, or the 4th place trophy is the best we can hope for yet again.

I can't believe people here are actually justifying paying 35 million pounds for a teenager who's only played 50 games with 12 goals...

This is Wayne Rooney all over again, as much as i can't stand united, this deal will pay off 2-3 years from now, he's a beast.

I'll never understand why anyone cares what a club pays for a player. If United want to pay that much who cares? They clearly have enough money and feel he's worth that much.

Wayne rooney had played 67 games and only scored 15 goals when they signed him for 25.6 million 11 years ago.

Andy Carroll only had 14 PL goals in 40 odd appearances when Liverpool splashed 30 million on him.

Sometimes it works out sometimes it doesn't.

Its not my money so i don't care what they pay for him

Also rumor going around in Spain that the Navas paper work went through but not De Geas haha very slim chance it happens but f**k it would be funny if we ended up with both of them and Madrid don't have a keeper.

With that money you can buy a much better, much more proven striker.

Wayne Rooney was already displaying goals and talent in arguably the best league in the world.

Haffa, it's bullshit like signing Andy Carroll for 37 million that has left Liverpool in big debt again. That's why fans care.

I know United have more money than sense, but *none* of their big-money signings have paid off. You'd think they try to be a bit more prudent, because recklessly spending with no real plan might catch up with them in the future if they keep on doing it.

In fairness, we also payed 12mil for a little known 18 year old Portuguese boy back in 2003, who had scored 3 goals from 25 games for Sporting.

Fair enough if you care if Liverpool spend that, but why the f**k would you care what other clubs spend.

They want to spend obscene amounts on players let them.
