Tricky_Trev said:I don't know, it doesn't say. But I'd bet any money that when asked about it, Wenger says they never said anything about a swap deal. It's just spin, fed to Sky to cover up the fact that players don't see them as a desirable destination any more.MeatHunterrr said:swap deal, swap with who? they can't afford £10m? sounds like of disguising...Tricky_Trev said:SSN: Rags end interest in Vermaelen after refusing a swap deal. So is that basically their way of disguising the fact that they've been SNUBBED?

Maybe giving a virtually unproven kid approx £160k a week is coming back to bite them on the arse? This, and no CL football means that decent players will hold them to ransom over wages. Oh, and all the good players will want something approaching what the granny shagger is on........it really is a thing of beauty.squirtyflower said:SNUBBEDTricky_Trev said:SSN: Rags end interest in Vermaelen after refusing a swap deal.

Average, fast with a bit of skill but virtually no end product. Getting overrated on the back of Colombia's world cup campaign because he linked up extremely well with James, but he's nothing special, hasn't exactly made a massive impact with Lazio in Serie A.M18CTID said:How good is this Cuadrado they're supposedly on the verge of signing for £36 million?
I think you're doing him a bit of a disservice, he had a decent season with Fiorentina last year, highlighted by a stand out performance against Roma near the end of the campaign.aguero93:20 said:Average, fast with a bit of skill but virtually no end product.

He was the lad with the braided hair on the right wing for Colombia if you caught any of their games.
Does a decent season make him worth £36m in a team overstocked with attacking players?kenzie115 said:I think you're doing him a bit of a disservice, he had a decent season with Fiorentina last year, highlighted by a stand out performance against Roma near the end of the campaign.aguero93:20 said:Average, fast with a bit of skill but virtually no end product.

I'd suggest that van Gaal's direct style would suit him too. Would rather he didn't end up with them.
