  Arsenal to make £15m summer swoop for Klaas-Jan Huntelaar

  

  Huntelaar, unhappy that he has been left out of the Real Madrid side for the Champions league.

  
  

  
  

  
  

  Arsenal are lining up a £15million summer swoop for fed-up Real Madrid striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar.

  The Dutch international only moved left Ajax in January, but is disillusioned after being left out of Real’s revised Champions League squad list – so he won’t be facing Liverpool next week.

  The £17m man has scored just one La Liga goal and the Bernabeu top brass are reported to be ready to cut their losses on the 25-year-old.

  That has alerted Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger, who had Huntelaar lined up last summer as a potential replacement for Emmanuel Adebayor.

  I honestly think he is not that good a player... Good but not very good... I feel Rvp is a more skilful player than him too...

  A good thing Fergie insist on only Berbatov and not go for him... phew...

  Huntelaar to Arsenal?

  

  Huntelaar is the one on the right, if you must know.

   

  Pop isn't the only thing which eats itself. Pretty much everything we do is a copy of a spin-off of a copy of a copy of an abject humiliation first suffered by some poor putz in the Dark Ages. But sometimes that familiarity can breed content. Arsenal fans, for example, would happily revisit the story of the much-hyped young forward who goes from a second-tier league to one of Europe's biggest clubs, only to flop miserably and be sold on at a loss to Arsenal, where Arsène Wenger slaps on the special oils, rubs his paper hands all over him and turns him into one of the best players in the world.

  For Thierry Henry in 1999, read Klaas-Jan Huntelaar in 2009, Huntelaar, who only moved to Real Madrid from Ajax in January, is emitting ever-increasing circles of heat after being left out of Real Madrid's revised Champions League squad, and could be on his way to Arsenal to replace Emmanuel Adebayor, who is going to Barcelona/Internazionale/so far up his own hubristic hole that he'll spend most of his natural-born days plotting a route out, like the fella in Shawshank Redemption.

  Don't think he will move, simply cos Ruud will be 34 next season and in his twilight. Huntelaar wud do well to remain patient and learn from him. Anyway he will be available in the Champs League next season wat??? Arsenal are not even guaranteed Champs League football next season and they already have Eduardo, Adebayor, Van Persie and Bendtner...
