The Independent says we're trying to "hijack" Silvestre's move. As we've punted Hoyte to Boro it's plausible from that point of view, but would imagine Siralex would be happier to flog him to Sunderland or even Citeh.

Anyway, we play the Czechs tonight. Hard to recall an England game I've cared less about TBH. Couldn't even watch it live if I was arsed as our friendlies are now on Sultana.
Yeah, another great move by the BBC, honestly shocking, why do we have to pay a licence? The Olympic coverage has been good, for sure, but then I'm sure it would be on Sky...

You're not missing much, tbh.

Capello OUT!!!!!!:ph34r:

May watch Taggart at 9, if truth be told.....

Silvestre to Arsenal appears to be fact now, joke on Arsenal IMO, he's utterly useless.

Cue him playing better for Arsenal than he ever played for us.

Well, to be fair, all he needs to do is play better then Senderos to be a good buy for Le arse, so it's not an arduous task.

Yeah, big "meh" here. Suppose he covers pretty much anywhere in the back four, so a utility purchase only I suspect. Wenger's not exactly renowned for buying ageing players, especially those with somewhat chequered fitness histories.

Sincerely hope he's not the holding midfielder Wenger's been talking about or we're into Madness of King Arsene time.

I think the biggest job Capello faces is getting people to give a **** again. Even a blindly optimist patriot like me finds it hard to get motivated.

wa-hey:unsure:

still ****ing crap and a scrappy goal ain't going to change that. Downing looks our best player, to think it's come to this:wacko:

lulwut? 'twas not me.
Apparently Silvestre is a free agent, only realised this morning that he was released by Man Utd at the end of last season. Which makes this potential deal not the worst thing in the world, as he is free he could be a reasonable buy (fingers crossed), wouldn't be happy if Arsenal shelled out a lot of money for him, but on a free....hopefully could turn out ok. But my opinion of him throughout his Man Utd career was that most of the time he was solid enough without ever being really good, but prone to bouts of being extremely dodgy...
My bad.

Sky reckon that Wenger sees him as a first choice centre half along with Gallas... what's happened to Kolo Toure?
Most likely that Toure will be pushed forward into midfield now I would have thought, which would solve the problem of the hole in midfield. Which i'm perfectly happy with tbh, probably my favourite Arsenal player.

LOL @ Silvestre to Arsenal. Very bizarre transfer, that one. Was half-expecting us to go for him, seeing as we can't defend for **** based on last weekend's performance.
