my first blog ever I don’t know if anyone’s already done this but here is 5 year statics and my opinion see who you’d prefer and why. I have not seen us strongly linked to any defenders or keepers if we have then sorry. I’m using wages I’ve read these players are already on as I don’t know what arsenal would offer this are also valuations I’ve read bids would need to be to get them
Wayne Rooney
Estimated value 30mil salary 250,000 a week
Wayne Rooney is about 5’8 and is 27 years old best position is on the shoulder of a striker but he’s off field antics, wages I don’t feel there is serious interest I think its wenger being smart saying we got money if we want him we can have him so other players will think arsenal are serious about buying big players also if moyes can’t sort it then wengers also not said I dislike Disney movies especially (Shrek )and I dislike you acting like a teenager but because on the pitch when playing at his best he can be unplayable and has won stuff and played in high pressure matches which we’ve been known to choke why I believe Rooney’s on are radar but not first choice

Gonzalo Higuaín
Estimated value 25mil salary 130,000 a week
Higuaín is about 6ft, 25 years old and out and out striker and would play well with a Giroud Podolski or even Walcott on he’s shoulder he’s used to high pressure coming from Madrid stats show he can score and assist Arsène has watched him since his time before Madrid he is underrated and could give us strength speed and goal machine we need I feel he would fit straight in to are team and is well suited to premier league and would show people we mean business

Stevan Jovetic
Estimated value 20-25mil salary 60,000 a week
Jovetic is 6ft tall he plays off the shoulder off striker like Rooney but is only 23 my main concern is his injury record as you can see he spent hole season out 3 years ago and has had a few injury’s he’s a player I have personally big admire of for years very skilful also not a selfish player as you can see he’s improving he can score but he will also lay other strikers through and is but hes not as used to as much pressure that would be on him at arsenal

Marouane Fellaini
Estimated value 24mil wages 75,000 a week
Fellaini is 6’3 and 25 years oldhes a defensive mid admitted he would like to play champions league we would be a step up hes used to premier league strong good on the ball but he has issues with temper on the field like Rooney so could cost us points but same as Rooney has the ability to win points he would free up Wilshere or Arteta to move have a free role his work rate is good but I worry about his hot head and his passing ability is not up to arsenal standard

Cesc Fàbregas
Estimated value 40mil but I read we can get him for 25? Wages 100,000
We’ll all I need to say about this lad is hes been with us before he’d be welcomed back he still follows arsenal 5’10 26 years old passing ability brilliant can cut you open in one pass scores goals sets goals up and got winners mentality leadership qualities we lack on the field
