    I'd be willing to sell any of the three out of Arteta, the Yak, and Beckford but we got nowhere near enough for them. £10m for Arteta, maybe our best player over the past 5 seasons. £1.5m for the Yak, who in my eyes definitely deserved another chance here after a decent spell on loan at Leicester. £3m for Beckford isn't too bad but who are we going to have up front who has Premier League experience and will stay fit?

    I agree about Becks and Yak but I don't think Arteta is worth more than £10M.

    Yeah, i think we got a little short changed on Arteta and I don't understand why we didn't get Bendter for a year loan as part of the deal. That would have gave the Prem experienced striker.

    Arteta has been awful since his injury, 10 mil is a worthy number. Hopefully for him this could be the fresh start he needs to start becoming the quality player he is, he never looked like he was going to show it for us again though.
    Yak off the wages is better than another loan and at least we got something instead of waiting for the contract to run out.
    Beckford.. Big shame on this one, I would of kept him, he was a good striker.

    Agree. Getting Bendtner would have been a good safety net and would have made sense, but I have a good feeling about this Stracqualursi.

    I thought it was 4 million for Beckford and 2 million for Yakubu, that's what it said earlier on tv. I think it's good money all round but it's a pity we couldn't get to spend any of it.
