For years the Arsenal fans looked forward to every transfer window in summer or in January with the sort of dread that a visit to the dentist brings, as we all expected there to be more bad news in the shape of our best players leaving than there was excitement about the new signings that Arsene Wenger was likely to make.
But after the shock news this week that the Chinese Super League outfit Shanghai SIPD are paying Chelsea a massive £60 million transfer fee for their Brazilian international star Oscar, confirmed by Sky Sports, I wonder if that will change. Knowing the way that Arsene Wenger and our club do business I can see a few eyes being fluttered towards the Orient and as long as we are not talking about our very best players like Alexis Sanchez then I think it might not be too bad an idea if one of those clubs came calling with a ridiculous offer.
We are just coming up to the January transfer window after all and as long as any money went back into the transfer kitty I think we could benefit from any deal. So which Arsenal players would you be happy to sell, for a massive mountain of cash of course, to one of these Chinese cash cows? Ramsey? The Ox? Giroud?
