Arsenal Sign Florent Malouda?

Wednesday, 06 June 07, 01:42 AM


Various sources have proclaimed that it's a done deal, and to be honest this rumours has been rumbling on for months, and seems like a quite likely one.

He's French, he's very experienced, he's won loads of titles in France, and made great progress in both European and international football. He's left-footed, and can scrap and work hard just as well as he can charge forward. He's a decent finisher, if not a prolific goalscorer, and is a classy player, even if he is underrated by many (mostly because they are busy complaining about how overrated he is).

He's played a lot with Thierry Henry, and is a determined character. He'd probably be everything that Reyes wasn't, and i'm sure he'd love to work with Arsene Wenger. Plus, he's been linked many, many times before as well. Before he joined Lyon in fact, so Wenger has seen his potential ages ago.

If rumours that Gerard Houllier is going to take over as Director of Football at Arsenal are to be believed, then that makes this story even more likely than before.

A pacy, energetic winger with a bit of steel and no small amount of ability - sounds like he's needed, especially with him being left-footed (there's no one left in that department apart from Van Persie and Clichy, and of course Armand Traore in the reserves; compare that to a few years ago over overlapping periods when Edu, Silvinho, Overmars, Cole, Upson, van Bronckhorst all gave the team great balance).
