    Todays rumour:

    http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/tra...-Nasri-THIS-WEEK-Exclusive-article753708.html

    So a combined Fee of 54m for both.

    Now 20m for Nasri is great business with 1 year left, but surely that pushes up Cesc's value as he has 4 years remaining!?

    Would you accept 54m for both? How about 60m? Or is losing both in the same transfer window too much?

    60m would bring in 2 x 30m players, but who could replace two of the biggest stars in the Arsenal squad?

    Apologies, the BBC Gossip Column said that Barca wanted both. Amended, but the Title of the article won't change on the Main Page. Sorry folks!!

    Yeah I read that on the BBC too - That Barca wanted both....cannot see Nasri going with Cesc going.

    I personally don’t think we will get a replacement for Cesc. Narsi will play in that role and Ramsey to cover.
    Narsi will get a bumper deal for sure and I think Gervinho will play in Nasri’s current place.

    If Denilson and Rosicky go, we may need some squad players/potential talent in for the midfield.
    That would leave Diaby, Wilshere, Song, Nasri, Ramsey and Frimpong. Rosicky may be kept for back up.

    We got Mata for example where will Gervinho fit/or he would be a squad player. Mata will only happen if Nasri leaves I feel.
    Think Alverez would be more likely as he has only been used as a impact sub of late and would take time to come into the team.

    Interesting week ahead…

    Man thinking about how new our squad would be will all these new players…

    If we get £20 million for Nasri I would be delighted. I really, really don't like him. Won't boo him or anything if he stays but I will definitely not cheer him.

    I'd agree on £54m for them.

    20m for Nasri would be great with 1 year remaining. BUT I wouldn't want him to go to Man Utd - at all!!

    I don't think losing Cesc & Nasri in the same summer is a good move, overall I'd rather Cesc stayed, but that's looking highly unlikely.

    I think Nasri is good competition for Theo on the right, but doesn't play that well on the left, or as an attacking midfielder. The idea of Cesc leaving, and Nasri taking his place doesn't fill me with confidence.

    Having Gervinho & Mata if Cesc leaves I think would not be a problem. Arshavin and Gervinho would compete for the Left Midfield position, with Botelho in there too if he's not sold on. I'd like Nasri & Theo on the right, then Mata & Ramsey competing for Attacking Midfield.

    For me, the problem with the team is there is a 1st team, and a squad. There needs to be higher competition for places, so the starting lineup is unknown from game to game.

    According to an article in the Guardian last week,Fabregas will only be allowed to leave if Nasri signs a new contract

    interesting, i can see that happening too. Nasri has to sign of Cesc isn't allowed to leave. Not good for dressing room morale if that happens however!

    If we replaced Nasri with Mata and Fabregas with someone around his level then I would be a happy enough.

    I don't mind if we lose Nasri either. He's been here, what... 6 years and for £6.5m has given us half a season?

    Attack wise we have great strength. I'm more worried about a DM especially IF Song goes off to the Africa Cup. Let's hope Song still won't shake hands with Eto'o eh?
