Sébastien Squillaci

[ProudGooner]

I was pleased to hear Wenger confirm that we have signed Squillaci (straight from the horse's mouth http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/footbal ... 947406.stm ) but am confused as to why there isn't anything confirming the transfer on Arsenal.com?

PR reasons. Its the CL draw today and that was going to take all the spotlight.

Yesterday and the day before it there were CL games.

I believe they will announce it tomorrow or maybe even next week.

Squidgers only cost £3m!!!

“We needed a centre-back of quality and experience if possible, and at the right price - Squillachi is all of that. We signed him for 4million Euros.

F**kin bargain!!!

We can compete with Chelski, but we choose to shop at Poundland (BTW I'm not knocking Poundland... I go there all the time! Top brands for less!)

I find it hard to believe that he quoted the price, I think they've added that bit on.
He never mentions the amount publicly.

He did with Diarra...

I was thinking the same thing GG... he does let it slip now and then when he thinks he got an absolute bargain. This just really proves though that we've spend f*ck all monies this window yet again...

[GunnGunn]

If he really got him for £3m, then f**k me, epic piece of business IMO.

[Est83]

Lol, it's like he's boasting the price.

"Yes, well, I don't like to talk about ze business side, but £3m is a steel!.. opps, whoopzey. did I just say ze price."

[Est83]

Lol. £8m for Kos was the biggest gamble. How about we jsut say "£11m for two defenders"... that way it's fine if one of them turns out shit.

[Est83]

Hill Wood said "here's £12m Arsene, get yourself two center backs... oh, and I expect change! Me and the missus have got an anniversary coming up!"

[Arsenal Tone]

So we got koscielny AND squillaci for roughly the same amount utd paid just for smalling?

And they are both better

[IMF]

Wasn't Kozzer only £6mill up front? Same price we sold Eduardo for...

Squidger cost us what we were supposed to get for O Jay Simpson + Traore

No monies spent.

Simples.

[Arsenal Tone]

Doesn't matter if he spent money or not or got it from player transfers. He got the two CBs we all prayed for, good enough.

Agreed

[IMF]

No. I want to see some of that promised monies spent. I want proof from the board and management that we ain't broke ass beeyatches.

I want us to sign Messi now now NOWWWWwwwwWWWwwww!!
