jacko 1990 Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Arteta going in the Summer? its supposedly all over the spanish papers........Cismo or any other spaniard, can you shed some light. I'm not at all suprised if he did leave, he is a quality player and their will be some big teams in for him, but we as a team are getting stronger and would love to seem him stay and honour is new contract.

jamiemaher85 Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 How many times have the spanish press reported he is coming back to spain now? I'd wait for something more concrete, and with the club going good places I don't see why we would want to leave. At the moment anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 How many times has rumour popped up 5-6-7 ??? He denies it every time, but if he does go, we are in a position now to replace him..... Theo Walcott, Aaron Lennon, Carlos Edwards, Simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko 1990 Posted March 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 I only started the topic because the info it came from was from some one from spain, and he was saying about the Torress move a couple of months before their was any press talk about it. David Bentley looking like the best option to fill his boots if he did leave? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiemaher85 Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Never going to happen. Would be very expensive now that he is in the england sqaud. I would however advise that we dont continue with the debate over who would replace him, and then argue about steven hunt, and then argue about what is considered a world class player. Last time it got very messy very quickly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everton_Worshiper Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 If Arteta goes, which is likely IMO without Champions League footy (as I said a while ago) then there will be no suprises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraccerC Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 has to be bentley to replace for me, the only player i'd want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlmc25 Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 has to be bentley to replace for me, the only player i'd want. Bentley will cost a bomb, I'd rather get a cheaper foreign alternative who is just as good. I can't see Arteta leaving yet anyway, it's just paper talk.

Romey 1878 Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 has to be bentley to replace for me, the only player i'd want. Supposedly going to Chelsea in the summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 we've seen recently when he doesnt play we are still a good side. to be honest i dont see him going, and if he did would he play as well as we have seen in recent times. hes not really done much at any of his other clubs has he?

Madmatt Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 IF Arteta leaves, (and i cant really see it!) i would like SWP brought in. Could see him and Pienaar linking up well swapping wings etc. leaves us then to have two hard central midfielders to allow Cahill or Johnson up front or just behind the Yak.

jacko 1990 Posted March 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 SWP isnt much of a defensive man, he wouldnt give Tony H the cover he gets that Arteta gives him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 SWP isnt much of a defensive man, he wouldnt give Tony H the cover he gets that Arteta gives him. I wouldn't care. Sooner or later you have to take a chance on a predominantly attacking player to move the squad forward, we can't always be conservative.

BLUENOSEsam Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 SWP isnt much of a defensive man, he wouldnt give Tony H the cover he gets that Arteta gives him. IMO next season tony hibbert will be a bencher we need a new right back deffo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlmc25 Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 SWP isnt much of a defensive man, he wouldnt give Tony H the cover he gets that Arteta gives him. I agree, added to the fact that nearly every time he gets into a good position he messes it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Where's Arshavin's marching band gone??? Not one mention of him as a replacement... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cismo Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 (edited) I´ll investigate the rumour. Last summer Arteta nearly finished playing in all Spanish teams, jajaja. I remember he said in November he will go to Atletico Madrid. In all ways I´ve always thought he would leave Everton soon or late Edited March 10, 2008 by cismo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko 1990 Posted March 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Where's Arshavin's marching band gone??? Not one mention of him as a replacement... he aint a Right winger...........? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Can play anywhere, midfield or forward, and Artetas not a winger either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraccerC Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 he aint a Right winger...........? he can play there as well as in the centre, he's a genuine wing possibility Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Same as everybody, sick of hearing it. Stick a 20 mil price tag on him and i think it will be worth it. I hope not to see him go but if must i suppose could go for David Bentley, Theo Walcott or James Milner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnsy Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Bentley AND Milner if Newcastle go down..... I could live with that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Reg Reagan Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Arteta wont leave for some shit spanish teams like athletico and real madrid both those teams are career enders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chronic Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 I don't think he will go, and I hope he doesn't. But if he does go, I would be very pleased if we replace him with someone who can actually clear the 1st man from a corner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraccerC Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Arteta wont leave for some shit spanish teams like athletico and real madrid both those teams are career enders he'd go to atletico, they're a great team to go to, i'd leave everton for atletico Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamsmith69 Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 this rumour pisses me off big time. How many times does he have to say he is happy here? every other week he has been saying it. Fair enough he will 'finnish' of his career in spain but he will be with us for a fair few seasons yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraccerC Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 to be honest, i wouldn't be so much against selling him. controversial as that may be. as mentioned in this thread already, we've shown we don't rely on him as much anymore, and as with rooney if we can get some good money, we can get a couple of players in and improve the squad quite a bit. bentley suggested to chelsea, 10 mil was mentioned. is arteta that much better than bentley, or SWP, or Arshavin? or did he just look good previously because he was the only player capable of playing football in our side. i don't know...wouldn't have sold him last year, but now if an offer of 20 mark came in...hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko 1990 Posted March 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 i would sell him for 20 mil, but dont think it would ever go that high, 10-15 i would expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chronic Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 I think his price has just increased! What a goal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
