Wasn't he touted for us in the summer and jan windows?

Im guessing he will be play on the left hand side of the attack replacing Gervinho. (SpursKing wont be happy seeing one of his golden boys getting benched :lol

They have got him for a pretty good price, especially if he can replicate his national team form.

If Köln had got relegated this season he would have gone for about 6mill so they didn't want to take that gamble. Decent signing, didn't adapt to life in Munich, on paper though looks a good deal.

Well known to have issues with life outside of Cologne. Has only ever had two good club season, but in his home town. And in both cases, those years were good because the team was built around him. Look at him now. He's leaving because that Danish coach refuses to built the team around him. A bit babyish. He will be miserable, not adapt and basically be their last two left sided forwards...Gervinho and Arshavin.

Pretty much sums it up.

Arsenal fans will get very frustrated with him and will turn on him pretty quickly. He won't make an impact and angle for a move back to Cologne.

He's pretty, meh.

Cologne??

Cologne??

What's the question?

 

[MrWoolley]

I don't rate him much at all, so he's probably going to be amazing!

 

[aws_young]

He can't be any worse than Bendtner and Chamakh so it can only be looked at as a decent buy.

 

[bubble07]

very odd that the club have agreed a price knowing how well he will probably do for Germany at the Euros unless theres a buy out clause of course

 

[Kushal]

What's the question?

Aftershave or Cologne?

He'll be getting 100k a week apparently. Arsenal continue to overpay good but not great players.
