Phil Jagielka, Sebastien Giovinco Linked With Arsenal (Rumours)

The "Arsenal be the Next Star" show is on and the upcoming star seems be Phil Jagielka from Everton. It looks like Arsenal have agreed to pay the requested 18 Millions Pounds for the Toffee's leading stopper. As we all know, unless Le Boss confirms anything, we better not bet our shirts on this matter.


Given the time, I believe Verminator and Phil Jagielka will have a pretty good understanding of each other's game and will build back the fortress that Adams and Keown used to be. Vermaelen's speed, his aerial ability and agressivity are sure impressive but Phil Jagielka is hard material as well (ask Wayne Rooney or Steven Gerrard), and please let's not forget his goalscoring skills. The only problem that could arise can be his speed and acceleration, which is not as good as Verminator's. This can be the reason of the arrival of Laurent Koscielny who on the contrary is fast but less proficient in the air.

There have also been links with the Juventus speedster Giovinco. Believe me, this guy's fast and can do a lot of damage. However that move will be possible if "La Vieille Dame" are able to sign Gareth Bale from Sp*r, which would be another good news for us!
