Where do you think he will end up?

I have a feeling it's going to be Man City or Juventus

I don't care as long as he leaves Arsenal in the sh!t

Fc Barcelona

PSG or Juventus.

I heard Walcott also wants to leave, according to Soccernet.

Lets not forget he's practically touching 30, and can leave on a free next year ,so I reckon its between the two Manc clubs, probably for around
the 18 million mark .... Unless PSG want to throw silly money at it .

Somebody from BBC said he's going to join City for £22 million, and be paid £225,000/week.

They'll have enough strikers to field a whole team of them...

I guess City still haven't gotten the FFP memo.

Hes a top player but think he can be bought for alot less then 18 million. He has 1 year left that means fukall nowadays

Nasri had one year left on his contract and cost over 20 mil

Can't see City buying him till they sell Adebayor and Sanata Cruz.

id be absolutely shocked if he ended up at manure.
it will only cost 15-20 for him and at that he's well worth it.it will be wages that will decide it so id have to say city or juve.
it has been a joy to watch him over the years and i hope he stays in the prem but understandable if he chooses to go abroad.

He's a great player, but his reputation as one of the best out-and-out strikers in the game is a relatively recent development. For most of his time at Arsenal he played more of a supporting role and wasn't anywhere near as prolific as last season. When you factor in his age and the injury problems he's had, it would surprise me to see him go for much more £20m. Maybe City would go higher, but they're in a league of their own in terms of spending. As for where I would rather see him go, I have no preferences really except not to any of our immediate rivals, and certainly not the Manc's. I'm just glad Arsenal will be losing their best player (provided there's no a U-turn, which does happen from time to time), and someone they depended on so heavily for results last season. Hopefully Modric leaves Spurs evening the race for fourth up still further. I'm also thinking that if he goes to City it could open up an opportunity for us to sign one of their other strikers -- Dzeko or Balotelli perhaps -- who would surely be surplus to requirements. Wouldn't mind either of them.

I'm just waiting for them to play the innocence card and act like foreigners who don't speak English.

"what? We can't put our own money in the club? Oh we didn't know, we'll just pay a fine and move on with it if that's alright with you..."

FSG had best be taking note of Arsenal's situation if they are contemplating going down their route. The entire philosophy at Arsenal has been an abject failure and the sooner that Arsenal's billionaires start investing money into the club, so they can compete financially with their rivals the better it will be for Arsenal.

Season after season their best players are heading out of the exit door. That says everything about the success of the 'Arsenal model'.

They get CL every year and they are financially sound - failure ?
