Arsenal Opinion

Before you read any further, I do apologise if this is untrue, but I heard it from a reliable source and I’m going to post it in the hope that my source comes through with flying colours. I have a lot of credibility amongst my eleven readers and I’d rather keep that credibility in place, but you may think I’m mental or absolutely thick when you read on.

Anyway, my source actually gave me two rumours, one of which isn’t really a surprise but one is absolutely ludicrous.

Rumour number 1 is that Klass Jan Huntelaar has 100% signed for Arsenal. He told me no more than that, but I can only assume we’re waiting to offload Adebayor before we announce the signing.

Now for the crazy one. The good news is that he’s a goalkeeper with Premiership experience, but the bad news is a lot of people actually don’t rate him, and the transfer of this player could be the shock signing of the summer. The signing is none other than……….. Paul Robinson, for a fee of £3.5m.

I did warn you.

Personally, I’m not sure what to think of this, as we could’ve signed Scott Carson from Liverpool for £4m who most people are pretty much in agreement would be better acquisition. Also, we had Robinson on trial a few years back before he signed for that lot, and wasn’t he one of the unfittest men ever!!?!

I’ll leave it as that, not really knowing whether or not I’d like this to come true.

This is the same source who told me Bernie Eccleston was going to attempt to buy out Arsenal weeks before it happened, so there could be a bit of truth in this.
