Wenger confirms we have bid for Vermaelen. I think if he stays fit he could be a good addition.

There was a very good piece about Vermaelns injuries on sportswitness where last Feb he was told to have 3 weeks of at least but he played 3 games in a week (He was rubbish) by having injections,

Wenger has confirmed Vermaelen COULD leave, and the Man Utd COULD be in a group of teams interested in him. Hardly confirming a bid.

"Have we received bids? Yes. I can't tell you who from but you will know very soon, " Wenger said. "Are Manchester United one of the teams to have made an offer? I think they could be in the group.Ideally, yes, we would like to sell him abroad and that is an option for us."

I'm taking that as read we have. They'd rather sell to Barca, both teams would rather have Hummels but he's going to be hard to get. Vermaelen needs to weigh up third choice at Barca or starter for us.

Reddub -

Arsene Wenger is an experienced manager. He'll have known exactly how his comments would be spun by the press and I doubt very much that he'd have made them if we weren't very interested in the player and there wasn't a good chance he'd be leaving.

Personally I would rather get vermalen rather than hummels as he has the premier league experience and I also hope that we get de Jong instead of Vidal

Sred4893, Is that you Joel? Avram? Edward? Darcie? Kevin?

Sydney I'm just saying that I think that hummels is going to cost a lot of money for someone who doesn't have pace and when your playing 3 at the back u can't be exposed by a quick striker!! Also if the club wanted Vidal we would of got him by now I would like de Jong now and stroitman in January and then spend decent money on di maria
