Just been speaking to an Arsenal fan who works in the same Hospital as me, he always seems genuine when we chat about Football but certainly not "in the know". He tells me Vermaelen has no interest in going to Barcelona and he's nailed on for a move to Utd. He says its an 11m fee and will be completed any time soon. Obviously it could be complete rubbish but I guess we'll find out soon. Also said when he's fit and has a run of games he's as good as anyone. Rates him very highly. Just thought i'd pass on what he said.

I think he'd be a good signing. Not as good as Hummels - but better than Vlaar, De Vrij, Martins Indi and some of the other mediocre players we have been linked with.

If he can stay injury free

A newspaper are running a story that TV already has a verbal agreement in place with UTD to join on £100k per week, don't think he's worth that or the supposedly £15m fee some tabloids are mentioning

Maybe he did know something after all hey

Anybody else think that IF Vermaelen was to happen, then wouldn't Inigo Martinez be a good option to put alongside him and Jones in the back 3?

Nope. He's already moved to Porto anyway.
