Title: Nigel Reo Coker

As well as bolstering his attacking options, Arsene Wenger wants to add experience to his midfield and sees Reo-Coker as a cut-price option.
The 25-year-old has fallen out of favour at Villa Park and is reportedly keen on a move back to London.
Tottenham are also thought to be interested in the former England U21 international.
Villa manager Martin O'Neill paid West Ham £8.5 million for Reo-Coker back in July 2007 and will want to recoup as much of that sum as possible.
However, the player's contract expires in 18 months time, at which point he can leave for nothing, so Villa may agree a £3m January sale.

All rumour but I dont think he's a bad player actually. With the ACON and lack of cover we could probably use another option.
Had a poor time of it at Villa lately at full-back but you never know, Wenger might be the man to get him back to form.
Won't happen though

I think he's alright.
Better than Diaby anyway. :coffee:

Tbf, Petrov is very good in the 'holding' position that Reo-Coker would be playing for us, he's well suited to Villa wherea Reo-Coker would suit us quite nicely so it's not much of an issue.
Ofc, this is com[plete bollocks but I think it'd be a good move for us tbh, a cut-price player who can do a job most places on the pitch.

well we do look like we will struggle if song is out and denilson isnt fit. Decent cover at DCM would be handy but frankly id rather take a punt on vieira still being able to do a job in a 4-5-1 with 2 dcms than pay up for reo choker

No, this has to be a joke. Sure I know it's unrealistic to think of getting another Vieira and yes we have fallen behind quite a few sides now in terms of being an attractive team to join, but signing this fucking idiot will be the nail in our coffin of ever hoping to compete with the big guns in europe.

His career was a one-season wonder at West Ham and that's that.
