Kalou stuns Chelsea by revealing desire for Arsenal move
06:55 PM 26 February, 2009
Salomon Kalou has revealed he wants to sign for Arsenal Football Club.

The Gunners were keen on the Chelsea forward in the summer, and the 23-year-old has confessed he would love to work under Arsene Wenger.

"Arsene Wenger said he thought of signing me? That’s an honour for me, an honour," Kalou told Setanta.

"He is a very great coach and I know that every single player in the world dreams of playing for Arsene Wenger.

“I have a lot of respect for him, he is one of the best coaches in the world. I am still under contract, but I have plenty of friends who play for Arsenal.

"They are achieving huge things at Arsenal and watching them play is just beautiful. You are never guaranteed to be in the Chelsea starting XI.

“That is because every single player fights to earn his place, including me, and the coach is the one that has the final word.

"At the present time I’m happy at Chelsea and I hope that the things that I want to happen will happen. I will think of my future once the season is over."

He would definatly be a good squad player. I dont think hes got enough to break into the arsenal first team at full strength.. Picture this: Almunia, Clichy, Gallas, Toure, Sagna, Nasri, Rosicky, Fabregas, Diaby, Van Persie, Arshavin. Then just think of whats left on the bench.. WOW!!

Why would Kalou want to play for a team that is in free fall. Arsenal wont even make it to the top 6 at this rate.

Kalou,Kalou,Kalou. You are welcome at the Emirates to replace your international teammate Eboue. A good switch and plus Kalou is versatile as well as adaptive to many attacking situations.
