Arsenal Urged To Act Fast To Land £17m Midfielder – Report

Reports today claim that Arsenal will have to move fast if we want to land Southampton ace Morgan Schneiderlin as Napoli have now entered the chase for the talented midfielder.

Schneiderlin has been widely tipped in the media to be one of Arsene Wenger’s key targets for this summer as the boss looks to bring in a long-term replacement for Mikel Arteta.

Arsene warned last week that he didn’t expect to do any serious business before the end of the World Cup. However, the Mirror claim we’ll have to act quickly if we want to land Schneiderlin as Napoli have also identified the 24-year-old as a potential new recruit this summer.

Rafa Benitez is understood to be a big fan of the Frenchman’s and wants to lure him to Italy to anchor his midfield after securing Champions League qualification again for next season.

Schneiderlin has been hugely impressive in the Premier League over the two seasons so it’s no wonder he’s starting to attract interest, and he’s also finally broken into the France national team set-up with Didier Deschamps naming him on a seven-man standby list for their World Cup squad.

The player only signed a new five-year deal last year so it’s thought it will take a bid of at least £17m to persuade Southampton to cash-in, and I hope we don’t mess around too long and just pay that figure because Schneiderlin would be an excellent signing.

It’s clear we need to replace Arteta this summer. Don’t get me wrong, he’s been a wonderful professional for the club but his legs are gone and his pack of pace is exposed in the big games, so we need an athletic ball-winner to come in this summer and Schneiderlin would do just nicely.

   Just other goobers I am desperate for Wenger to get off his ass and buy Good players Now. Our loyalty has been abused and taken for granted resulting in the present situation. During. the season that ended we were thoroughly humbled by teams we were meant to compete with which exposed Arsenal’s deficiency.
   It turned out Arsenal is sinking in a quicksand of mediocrity. We were only good enough against teams in the lower half of the table.

   Take time to consider this scenario: Wenger said we were very close. Are we really? He says were only 7 points off. Him, does that mean that if we had won the 1st game against Villa, Beat Stoke and won against Southampton instead of drawing would that been OK if were still thrashed 4 times?
   I think not.. At no time am I prepared to have my Arsenal getting beat like as though its their second nature. I don’t like my Arsenal to have players. Without pride who surrender every time opposition stiffens. No way Jose.
