Reports saying we're in a 3 way pull with Manchester United and Everton to sign Alex Song on a season long loan.
I'd welcome this addition but feel we would need to ship out a couple midfileders to make room. Ideally Holtby and Capoue will make way.

 


In what way would it be ideal to ship Capoue out? Hasn't really had that much of a chance and when he has played I thought he had played ok, give him a chance to get back to full fitness and settle into the EPL. He can also fill in at CB if needed, can't see Paulinho, Holtby, Bentaleb etc doing that.


I don't disagree with shipping Capoue out I think he is a bit over rated, ball distribution is pretty horrendous. He does move back to CB but as you can see against WH he really struggles.

I wouldn't be happy about getting Song on loan though. The team needs some stability and chopping and changing each season will get is nowhere, if he was on loan that would leave us high and dry next season.

I'd love it if we bought him though


Have you even looked at Capoue distribution stats while in France? One of his best attributes

Do you really think Alex Song will improve the team, and a Gooner on loan would be worrying.


LOL and to think normally we get all excited about the possibility of signing someone from Barca.
