Don't necessarily want to close down possibilities, but I struggle to think of anyone that's come to us from Arsenal, on loan or perm, that has worked out well for us...and I can think of many who haven't. There was Paul Barron and Clive Allen in the early 80s, but didn't we have to give up Kenny in return?

I read the linked article with interest until I got to the bit about Arsenal wanting £30 million.

The only good transfer dealings that I can remember us coming out on top with Arsenal is when they offered us instalments for Wilf & then bought Pepe for 72 million instead.

I think we offered a million for him and we were skint, shows how desperate we were to keep him

He wasn't instrumental but did prove to be a rather astute aquisition, Mathieu Flamini, though I'd wager many Palace fans have forgotten he ever starred for us. Then there's Chamakh as somebody else pointed out. But yes, besides that...

From memory all he brought was his arrogance.

Just as long as he isn't injured. We want the full Nelson not the half Nelson. It would certainly put an end to any future French transfers. 'Who are you and how did you get in here? I'm a locksmith. And, I'm a locksmith.' (Leslie Nielsen)

I can't see he fits our model. Arsenal want £30m and he is on £100,00 pw, if he's that good why is he not a regular for Arsenal. I think we are more likely looking at players that cost £15m with wages of £60k, just a hunch. One more point
