Brede Hangeland today refused to comment on transfer speculation linking him with the gunners.

When questioned he replied

“There’s been a lot of speculation over the summer and my policy is to comment as little as possible, because the more you say the more speculation there is,” he told Sky Sports News.

“So you really have to talk to my agent about that. I’m keen on playing football and doing my job on the pitch.

“That’s something I’ll think about if that comes about. Right now I’m concentrating on doing a good job for Fulham, and for Norway obviously when we play on Wednesday.

“You can try and rephrase it as many times as you want, but I’ll [only] comment on that if it happens.”

As for whether he was happy at Craven Cottage, Hangeland concluded by affirming that he was happy with Fulham, and that he was in no hurry to move elsewhere.

“I’ve said all the time, I’ve had a great time in the 18 months I’ve been there. It’s a great club, so I’m in no rush to go anywhere,” he stated.

So gooners, there is hope for us if Wenger bothers to buy him. I think it would be a great move. Hangeland plus a striker would be good (plus patrick viera even better in my opinion).
