Like the look of him on the youtube compilation. Don't suppose they'd like to throw in the No 23 for a couple of extra quid would they. Jesus Datolo, great run to make one of the goals.

I wonder about this, although that price is a bit ridiculous. Barca had a deal agreed for Palacios earlier this summer (for less), but they were haggling over when it was going to go through
(presumably waiting for Henry), and it all went quiet, so i'm assuming that has fallen through. In any case, Boca will want to keep him now for the Club World Cup in Tokyo.

This guy is hugely talented. I have watched him a few times for Boca in the argentine league. But the price is very high and if this is true it will be a massive gamble. Argentina players haven't
really done well in EPL

If these rumors are true, then i think it would be a dumb signing. SM is right, Barcelona doesn't need him no more, because of Henry, Eto'o, Gudjohnsen, etc. But, i don't think that the partnership
of Eduardo da Silva and Palacio (if he signs and is played with da Silva) is going to be good. A Croatian/Brazil and an Argentine playing together? Has anyone even seen that before? There are other
options. Walcott and Palacio, RVP and Palacio, Adebayor and Palacio. Hell, if he does sign, he might not even be a starter, with RVP and Adebayor starting. Personally, i think if Rodrigo Palacio
leaves Boca Juniors for Arsenal, that'd be a very stupid move. I mean, he could go from starter to benchwarmer. Plus, he's loved down in Buenos Aires and at La Bombonera, so i strongly believe he
won't leave Boca.

Both Riquelme and Palacio will probably stay for the CWC in December, and then move in the January transfer window.

Rodrigo Palacios is good - but 23 million? I say - let them wast....i mean INVEST it in him. why not? They let Thierry Henry go because, supposedly, ran out of gas and now they want younger &
talented players.

the only person arsenal need from boca is riquelm and quaresma from porto.then the prem is arsenal's to lose.

this is a will be a great signing but for 23 mil for him is too much but still wenger is tryin to build a strong young team so we mite aswell get this player. i seen him a few times his a very good
player

He's good player but that is definitely too much. I wouldn't pay more than 12 million euros. The guy's talented but he would be a gamble.

If he got rid of that ridiculous thing hanging from his head I would pay an extra million.

i personally think it would be a good sighnig for us and i do think dudu and palacio would be a good partnership up front with rvp and ade taking over every other week or so would of rather of liked
martins though

I think he's a good player. But there are players as good as him that would cost Arsenal a lot less...

cant really see where arsenal need another striker with the likes of da silva, adebeyor, van persie, walcot and bendtner already at the club!! should really be looking for a left winger!!

well, as Arsenal is getting Rodrigo Palacios, Atletico de Madrid is getting Riquelme and Quaresma from O Porto. hmm.... is Javier Aguirre building the strongest [yet] Atletico Madrid Spain has ever
seen??/

barca agreed a fee for him prior to the copa america he may of enhanced his tranfer fee while playing for argentina so that y we may pay more for him than barca

Nice try, as some fellow bloggers already pointed out, this is pure invention. LINK

Rod-what? don't really know him but i trust Wenger's judgement. but 23 million is a little too much and a huge gamble!

bullshit

as far as im concerned its all rumours if polacio signs he signs they said the same about martins after that we never heard a word about martins again wengers losing it

In big prem teams, South American strikers have had difficulty. In Arsene, we trust...but.... And regarding Atleti, they always build a great time every year, but fail to perform. I hope this year
will be different.

What a stunt! Quite possibly the funniest thing ever done by someone regarding a football transfer, i mean the sun printed a back page story on it! Whoever it was that printed it must be in real crap
right now, see this link LINK

Palacios sucks...he is a medium level player...period! Arsenal deserve something much better...

If Arsenal sign Palacio is good signing,but we need force in our attack in the person of Obagol. Wenger should extend his contrat first before further signing.

for me i think that there's on one who can replace henry but if they say that palacio is also good like henry then they should sign him immediately because arsenal is lacking a striker and they
should also try the activities of eto'o so that we can compete for the premier ship next season . to be like Manchester ,Chelsea and liver pool.
