Arsenal want Belgian star

            Olympiakos frontman Kevin Mirallas has revealed that his agent is in talks with Arsenal.Premier League rivals Liverpool have reportedly also shown interest in him.The forward has been impressive since joining from Saint-Etienne two years ago.The Greek club have stuck with their price of 6 million pounds for the starlet and not a single penny less than the specified amount would do for them.Reports have linked him to the Emirates previously as well but Mirallas has now confirmed that there has been contact between the two clubs and that his agent is in talks with Arsenal but he insists that he would be content and happy at Athens if the deal doesn't come through.

                     The Belgian International has been a revelation at the Athens club netting aplenty and helping his club win back to back domestic titles in his two years.Mirallas was the top scorer in Greece last term with 20 goals.Whilst he was used as an orthodox striker but he play on the flanks as well and such adaptability could further cement his place at the Emirates.

                       Wenger wants deadwood clear out with Vela already gone and Bendtner,Park and Chamakh likely to follow soon.He would welcome this Belgian star with open arms to bolster our attacking options even if Van Persie stays.Getting him for 6 million pounds sounds like  a bargain.Wenger should definitely go for the striker with all guns blazing and not leave things for the future as we have suffered so many times in the past because of such attitude.And if Van Persie leaves then this can prove to be a very important signing as our players get injured at the wrong time and having a player of such quality on the bench would be crucial.

                   It is rightly said selling of Van Persie is win as well as defeat for Arsenal.Its obvious that we don't want to keep a player who doesn't want to stay but selling our star player to one of our biggest rivals would be suicide.My take would be to retain Van Persie even if it means letting him go next season on a free.Arsenal new boys have been really impressive in the friendly against Cologne.Cazorla,Giroud and Podolski were brilliant in the 4-0 drubbing.A truly dominant performance by the Gunners.It speaks volumes of what we are about to get this season.Lets keep faith in our team and our manager.Come On You Gunners!!!
