£8m in wages is what he supposedly wants. £154,000 per week.

Khedira has sneaked a great little career for himself. I'm not saying he isn't talented but I don't consider him amongst the elite midfielders in world football today. He came into the national team to fill in for Ballack in 2010 WC and never looked back. After that impressive tournament he immediately moved to Real Madrid where he has been decent enough. Not outstanding. He was injured there for aaaages and returned to fill in for Alonso in a CL final. Nice going if you can get it. He had an excellent game for Germany against Brazil and his stock is on the rise again. Talk of Arsenal making him their highest paid player. I'm not saying he isn't a good player, obviously he is, but he's definitely benefitted from playing off a rep that has been created for him.
This. Nowhere near as good as he's made out although he had a cracker against Brazil. I dare say half the posters on here would have had as well given how shite Brazil were.
A German I work with was basically saying 'even Khedira looked great' after the Brazil game. I'm really not sure he'd add much if anything relative to how much he'd cost in wages and fee.
We should splash a load on Ross Barkley
That sounds a bit fruity
We'd be as well bidding for Messi... Probably more chance of that happening than Barkley.
would they really turn down £40m for him?
Not enough stepovers? JOKE!I've never been that impressed.
If Arsenal get him, they'll really challenge. He's exactly what they need.
So first Ozil, then Sanchez and now Khedira.
That will surely make Arse fans happy.
However, their midfield now looks quite congested. They will surely sell.
Is Real raising funds for James Rodrigues by selling Khedira to the Gooners?
Wenger means serious business this season.
Fair pointselling Khedira would cover the fee for Kroos, might not be related to Ha-mes
