M’Vila is certainly a player i rate highly and i’d love to see him at the Emirates next season. He would add ‘bite’ to our midfield and would provide some much-needed competition to Alex Song and Mikel Arteta in the middle of the park. So i hope these reports are accurate, but as ever, i won’t be getting too excited until i hear official confirmation on the transfer.
