According to Norwegian sources. If this happens I will be a lot more confident in out season. Gallas, Vermaelen, Hangeland is a very good first 3 defenders, with Djourou as fourth choice. Not bad at all.

I agree it would make you a lot stronger, what do you mean confident? What are your objectives next season? (In your view)

He's played in Europe already, doesn't that mean he can't play in Europe this season? If so, the deal is off

No, it doesn't mean that. We haven't registered our squad for the CL yet, so if we sign him before the Celtic game he can play in that and the entire CL season. If we sign him after the Celtic game we can still register him in the Winter for the knockout rounds.

Backwards step from what exactly?! He's a top 2nd/3rd choice CB depending on how Verminator does.

Is that not a prelimenary squad? Everyone else names their squad at a later date and just because Arsenal are in the qualifiers, I don't see why they should be denied a chance to include signings made in early-to-mid August. I'm pretty sure Arsenal will be naming a final CL squad when everyone else does.

Anyways, Hangeland hasn't played in the Europa League proper so he can't be cup-tied as far as I know. If Arsenal sign him after the Celtic game and obviously since the Europa League doesn't commence until around September, I am 90% sure he would still be named in the CL squad for the group games.

We don't really need him for the group stages anyway, so just sign the fucker any time before August 31st.

Arent the CL and Europa different competitions? And even if he has played in the Europa Cup he could in no way have an impact on anything to do with the CL and therefore should still be allowed to play in it?

and with regards to the move itself, i'd be very happy to see it. Given the choice i'd rather have Hangelaand then Verm simply beccause hes aclimatised to the Prem where as Verm is an unknown quantity

If he can only play in the KO's then fine, we'll walk through the group-stages as we always do.

It would be unlike Wenger to sign someone for Ł10million+ when he costed Ł500,000 a year ago, but can still see it happening.

With Wilshere's Pre-Season performances i don't think a winger is a neccessity anymore, get Hangeland and (If We're playing 3 in the middle) another CM. Done

The CL and EL are connected though when it comes to being cup-tied I can't think of an example at the moment but I'm 100% positive there have been cases where a player played UEFA Cup football and couldn't play CL in the knockout stage.
