Arsenal miss out on Gonzalo Higuain

You know the score, use the following details to fill in the template where necessary…

Name: Gonzalo Higuain
Age: 25
Nationality: Argentine
Nickname: El Pipita
Position: Striker
Old club: Real Madrid
New club: Napoli
_____

Arsenal, and other clubs, but especially Arsenal, have missed out on the signing of [player name].

The [country] international has been in sparkling for this season for [current club], scoring [x] goals and helping his side to reach [semi/final]/ and/or lift [trophy/championship].

The [position] wizard/stalwart has long been linked with a move to the Premier League with Arsene Wenger said to be desperate to bring him to the Emirates after [x] trophyless seasons.

But once again, the Gunners have been gazumped as [new club] announced today they had reached an agreement with [player name] and [current club] for a sensational summer swoop.

[Player surname] signed a new contract with [current club] in [year] and was scouted numerous times by Steve Rowley, Arsene Wenger’s main scout. It was thought that Arsenal would meet his [figure] buy-out clause, but the man nicknamed [nickname] has decided his future lies elsewhere.

It is now thought that Wenger will turn his attention elsewhere with [cheaper option], [even cheaper option], [ludicrous made-up option] and [racist-bitey bloke] all in his sights.

_____

As if the above wasn’t enough of a kick in the gonads we’ll all be able to watch Gonzalo make his Napoli debut against Arsenal at the Emirates Cup next week.

*shakes fists at the Gods*

In the meantime, do your homework for the next installment of ‘Arsenal miss out on…’, when we’ll be featuring … Luis Suarez.

All arsenals eggs in the suarez basket #risky

Gooner For LiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiFE

Truly makes me sad, He was a classy forward, very good finisher, strong, good pace and in my opinion with room to improve under Wenger. No baggage and down to earth, For 31 million… Arsene in my mind has this agenda, you dont fuck with him or he’ll turn everything around even if it hurts him, and consequently Arsenal. Real unfairly upped the price and Wenger got pissed, so it seems like he said “fuck it, I’m going for Suarez now you bastards”. If only we had bagged Higuan. Now our only? option is Suarez with 50+ million. Could have… Read more »

I know, and people who prefer Suarez for 50m, ask yourself this.

Would you prefer a player who genuinely wants to come play for your club, who stalled a move to another club just hoping we came back for him, or someone who’s just coming for Champions League football with a hefty price tag and might fuck off to Madrid or elsewhere if they come calling in the future?

I have always been proven wrong by Wenger, but I think, he’s seriously fucked things up by letting Higuain slip.

James

I don’t think we’ll get Suarez anyway. And I’d be glad about that. I’m getting to the stage where I think we’ll end up with pretty much the same team as last year (taking into account those who have already left, players coming through etc). Also, I wouldn’t put it past Wenger not signing anybody. If that happens you all know well enough that the atmosphere at the Emirates will be a timebomb, especially if Man Utd get Cesc (that won’t happen) and Sp*rs add Soldado and keep Bale. Taking into account the amount of players that have declared that… Read more »

AFCEdwards

Higuain isn’t a 30mil improvement on Giroud. Giroud’s main criticisms last year were that he doesn’t take people on, he’s missed a few sitters and he goes missing in the big games. All of these things are entirely true of Higuain. If we’re gonna get a new striker it has to be both an improvement and offer something different.

ghanagunner

typical arsenal we always find a reason to rationalize things. but i guess we don’t have an option. As soon as the season starts i hope napoli regrets and Giroud sets a record of 40 goals in the season.

my friend, my dear fellow supporter, Suarez is a fucking gem of a player and exactly the character we need to add some determination and nastiness to the whole of the team. His killer instinct and overzealous nature reminds me of Patrick and how he wanted to raise the middle finger to the whole of the English football establishment. Players like Luis and previously Ptarick is what wenger needs on the pitch for he is too kind and mild a person to do a fergie.

Nognir

Higuain was good for 20-22m range. Suarez@40 > Higuain@31 but if we end up paying 50m for Suarez then Higuain would have been better value for money (even at 31m)

Dave Gooner

In fairness to AW, this player is NOT WORTH 31 million.

And that fucking twit Benitez throwing 31 million of Napoli’s money at him still doesn’t make him worth it.

Walking away from this is a good, rather than a bad, decision.

wengersauce

you’re right, it is a very good business decision for a club still concerned with revenue, paying off debt, wage bill, etc.
it is a piss poor decision for a club that is serious about competing for four trophies next season.

duff

Sad thing is we spent last couple of seasons selling our top players for 20-30m and now that we are ready to buy some top players they all cost 30-40m. I dont think Higuain is worth 30m and i dont think Suarez is worth 40m. But shouldnt there be plan B, plan C, plan D, plan E and plan F prepared in case our plan A wouldnt work out? And where do we stand regarding new CB and new CDM or new GK? Where is our plan B and C for those? What the fuck are you people doing out… Read more »

Now that iv calmed down…. I realize i dont support Arsenal for their ability to win trophies. In fact i started supporting them fully about 2-3 years after their last trophy.. Mainly because i liked the offensive style of play and because of the young team and Wengers way of giving young lads a chance and building a team with them.. When i learned more about the club and found about our healthy financial ways i was even more affected and the love for the club grew… And it grows every year more and more.

I’m starting to think this is just meta-transfer business at this point. Wenger saw that we were going to get outbid by Napoli for Higuain, who he really wanted. So he’s pissed at Madrid because he probably thought they had a deal until the Cavani money seemed imminent. So what can Wenger do to retaliate? “Yeah, is John Henry there? John, this is Arsene. Do me a solid and I’ll help you get more money for your want-away striker. I’m going to bid up to the release clause, but it’s not really a bid. You just act like it is.… Read more »

Agree with you whole heartedly, Higuain and another sigining would have fitted in quite nicely with the 50 million we’re supposed to pay for Suarez.

I’m glad you got that out of your system! Personally, I don’t think our existing team is that bad. I’m confident we’ll be better than last season even without any signings, mostly because everyone will have had that full season playing together, and will have developed understandings with each other now. At the beginning of last season, you saw that the introduction of a few new faces meant that there was naturally an acclimatization period.

Hey, I’m as frustrated as you are. Just wanting to point out that saying “we’re fucked” if we don’t sign a striker like Higuain loses sight of our current quality, which is there (and I don’t think “fucked” is finishing in the top four; “fucked” is much worse). The thing people forget about new signings (you bring up other clubs making signings) is that they are not guaranteed to be a success nor gel with new teammates. There can often be a troubled period while things settle down and understandings develop. As to your criticism of my phrase “title-winning form,”… Read more »

@Wenger Can Fuck Off,

Then what glasses are you wearing when people say we’re “fucked” because we didn’t buy Higuain?

And by the way, I was citing the team’s 11-game unbeaten streak. It doesn’t take rose-tinted glasses to point out a simple fact, does it? Nor does it take a blinkered optimist to say that such a streak implies that the team gelled after a rocky start.

I’m not saying we don’t need signings. We do. But I think we have a great team here, which doesn’t warrant vile attacks on their doom that are based on nothing really.

Swerve

Title winning form?

Arsenal do the same thing every year, when the pressure is off and there is no chance of winning the league they go on a run. You also conveniently forget the quality of the opposition in these games and the fact we came close to losing a few of them anyway!

What are you lot smoking?

Unbelievable revisionist stuff, and EXACTLY why Wenger is under no pressure and a demagogue at the club.

You would literally buy anything the man says.

You know Napoli finished a distant 9 points behind Juventus?
I thought, based on the general consensus in the ‘Arsenal dont compete’ camp, that only first place matters – Not winning the league but qualifying for the Champions league is still a failure because there is no trophy?

Luis Suarez SIGN HIM UP! SIGN HIM UP! SIGN HIM UP!

Well Arsenal have done it yet again, missed out on a quality signing that we were supposed to have “agreed” a deal for ages ago, gone to a club willing to pay market rates. There’s no way we’re going to get Suarez for less than £50m, what’s Wenger’s backup plan then or has it always been Sanogo when we end up not spending anything all summer!

http://havearsenalspentanymoneyyet.com/

alf

So what WAS the market rate?
If Madrid ALWAYS wanted £35M then why did they agree a (rumoured) £25M fee with Arsenal? We were reportedly hammering out personal terms with his advisers which would imply that a fee HAD been agreed.The general impression seems to be that Perez upped the price AFTER the deal had been verbally agreed once another club (Napoli) showed interest.

But say we HAD simply dropped our trousers and bent over the desk by agreeing to pay the new fee, what message would THAT have sent out to other clubs we want to buy from?

Having studied every single YouTube available of both Gonzalo Higuain and Stefan Jovetic… it was clear to me that Jovetic was the better striker and I was already fuming when he signed for City for only GBP21mm. Criticism that Higuain is ‘just a poacher’ is somewhat true – you hardly ever see him create a goal out of half a chance. I can kind of understand why Wenger rates Luis Suarez so highly. He’s got a quickness, unpredictableness and deadliness about him that will get opponent defences shitting themselves every time they play us – the “fear factor”. RVP Judas… Read more »

I simply cannot understand how all of this has happened, this is absolutely beyond me. I simply don’t get it. As regards Suarez, I have to say I am completely with Arseblog on this one (sounds like the easy way, but I’m honest). To put it even clearer: I don’t want to see this player in an Arsenal shirt.

Jingle

reason we are splashing the cash on suarez is cos we know we ain’t going to get him. i even suspect its probably another excuse for the clubs to say “we tried”.
to sign a player that has no chance of coming in unless we send 60+ to liverpools bank account is not trying. why do we even bid to let suarez know when the player have no power to decide his own transfer with 3 years left? its either we are really stupid or the club think we fans are stupid.
