Bosingwa better than Sagna? 
that is just foolish
that is just foolish
I dont really rate Poulsen as a DM, he is def not able to compete with a Sissoko like DM for that spot.
Esp in the EPL, where physicality is a very important issue.
In Spain, even a balerina class Tiago player can be a "washing machine".
Poulsen is quite useful mostly because of his passing and a decent tactical awareness. But already having Fabregas make this extra ability quite useless.
But i dont think that his bulldog skills would be enough to intimidate EPL midfielders!! It is not only a matter of roles, but mostly a matter of strength and stamina! I really really doubt that Poulsen could be a starter in Arsenal, but i am sure that Eboue would be a starter in Juve.
The age and potential of the given players are also very important to Wenger.
Eboue still holds a potential and despite having more and better alternatives, Wenger is aware of his value!
Poulsen has already shown what he is able to do. He is not physical enough to play successfully in the EPL and his age wont allow him to improve much.
He can easily found a dozen of Dagostinos or even better Asamoahs if he wants to. But we can hardly come up with an Eboue. I still believe that we need him more than they need Poulsen.

I actually think Bosingwa is a lot better than Sagna. I like Sagna and he's a very good fullback, but Bosingwa is much better going forward, he's faster and he's a better one on one defender. That being said, i like Sagna very much and i like his never say die attitude. He has been probably our most consistent defender(which isn't saying much actually, because he hasn't been that consistent).
My opinion of Bosingwa was not great at first but after seeing him defend against Barca and Messi in particular he has won me over. I thought he was a strictly offense kinda fullback initially. He also looked less convincing defensively under Scolari cuz he would always be so far up the fielf all the time and have to rush back.
But both he and Sagna are very good and could walk into the starting 11 of most big clubs (except like Barca or Inter)

Bosingwa is defenitely NOT the better defender then Sagna, you can say better player, but Sagna is solid balanced RB with his strenghts mainly being the defensive side, and ok offensively (whack crossing), bit like Thuram. Bosingwa is a wingback that excells offensively, mainly just decent to at times exposed defensively.
i like Srna, hes in the right age, has a lot of fighting attitude and he will leave donetsk in the Summer. imo hes our best solution for the rb position, if Zebina/Grygera leave..
whats bothering me a bit is the fact there are no new transfer names arround anymore for the cb department, so u people think we already finish with shoping??

There was one today 
On calciomercato they were mentioning this kid from Croatia, Dejan Lovren or something. He is the captain of the U-21 side, and has been playing at the top level for 3 years now, with Dinamo Zagreb. He is reported to be the new Corluka, and has been monitored by many top clubs this year. He can play both CB and RB :eyebrows: His price should be around 2 million Euros.
