10. James is being sold in the Real club shop.

[Arjen Robben]

Real Madrid's squad is going to be even more of an absolute fucking pisstake isn't it.

Loads of pictures of Rodriguez at Barajas airport as well.

Falcao could be next. They could do with another CB though.

They're going to play Falcao at CB.

That would be a bit daft.

Sami Khedira is set to be unveiled as a new Arsenal player on Monday, according to reports.

The Real Madrid midfielder has been linked with a move to The Gunners this summer after recent stories in the Spanish media suggested that Los Blancos had agreed a £19.8m fee with the north London club.

Despite Khediras agent insisting that his client was not in talks with Arsenal, CaughtOffside has now claimed that the Emirates Stadium outfit have agreed personal terms with the Germany international and will confirm the midfielders capture on Monday.

Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, was asked about Khedira following the clubs 2-0 win over Boreham Wood in a pre-season friendly on Saturday, but, refused to reveal which players he was targeting in the coming months.

I cant give you any names, Wenger told reporters.

We are still active. Sometimes the players you want are available very late. You do the deals when they are possible.

If Arsenal sign Balotelli and Khedira I'm going to be backing Arsenal for the title next year.

Wenger is putting together a La Liga Ultimate Team with a 60k budget.

[METALMAN]

Wenger is trying to form the Real Madrid and Barcelona Castoffs XI. Shame he missed out on Fabregas, but Khedira will fit in nicely with Ozil, Sanchez and Arteta.

The standard of player that Real Madrid and Barcelona are happy to allow to leave for first team football is quite depressing.

Newcastle want to bring Andy Carroll back from West Ham according to the BBC Sport rumours page.

[Berober]

The circle is now complete.

[brenchill]

I'm sure he'll still be able to command £60k plus per week on account of being an English striker, despite achieving precisely nothing for the past 2 years.

10. James is being sold in the Real club shop.

Weird squad number for a keeper.

[The Lusophone]

Against the rules as well

[TCO]

Yeah my immediate thought was "La Liga keepers have to wear 1, 13 or 25, that's impossible!" rather than just laughing at the clever joke. I'm lame

If Arsenal manage to get Balotelli and Khedira they're going to be ridiculously strong next year. With United likely back in contention, it'd make for a brilliant season! Oh and I'd like Carroll back, assuming it's a fair fee without the English multiplier.

[Arjen Robben]

I don't necessarily see Balotelli moving as a good thing. Just a disaster waiting to happen that seems to be exactly the type of thing Wenger prefers to avoid.

[stokeriño]

Rumours of Drogba returning to Chelsea (in some capacity) are growing today.

If true, it doesn't matter who Arsenal sign. They'll still be fucked.

[Gazz]

Don't we do 'Arsenal have signed ____________, they've got to be favourites for the title' every July?

No? They never spent fuck all until they bought Ozil last year.
