Arsenal 2013- 2014

Be interesting to see how Willian gells with your lot.....

Dodged a bullet there IMO. He's part-owned by Kia Joorabchian for one thing. In addition he chose to go and play in Dagefuckingstan for the cash when he could have had the pick of most sides in the world. Says something about his 'values' I think, and Kia would have been stirring up shit in every window, and whenever he didn't play. He'll fit right in at Chelsea.

F365 reporting Benzema not interesting in moving, Marca that Di Maria doesn't fancy it either...

Our transfers seem dependant on a whole chain of moves,with no guarantees even then,some reports saying we're going to loan out the Pod which I think is ridiculous.....

Well at least it's comforting to know that if we sign anyone it will be in the next few days. Not surprised at all if players are waiting for champs league confirmation before putting pen to paper. And there could even be verbal agreements in place with that as a condition. I guess we'll find out tomorrow.

Rooney Tunes again - from goal.com

The Gunners have privately been given encouragement that Manchester United could be willing to sell them England’s talisman in the last week of the window despite their public insistence that he is not for sale at any price.

United are now determined not to sell Rooney to Chelsea, whose manager Jose Mourinho has given the striker until Wednesday at the latest to force through a move to Stamford Bridge.
However, the Premier League champions are believed to be open to a £25 million-plus offer for the player from Arsenal, who they do not regard as a fellow title challenger.

What looked on paper to be a tricky tie turned out pretty easy in the end,Ramsey's good form continues.....

Indeed. The real test comes when we play a team that are in good form.

He'll be confident he has the players already to compete in the PL and CL.

and how do we know if they're in good form until they've played some more games this season?

 

[Dexter Deadwood]

A comfortable and stylish victory against our profligate North London neighbours. When we had to defend we did so with gusto, as many as six or seven Arsenal players closing down the ball. Giroud won man of the match and his finish on the only goal was technically brilliant.

I'm still not interested in spending obscene amounts of money to buy a Title. Let's play with what we have, let's do it our way, the Arsenal way.

Lots of rumours flying around that we've had a £40 million bid for Ozil accepted by RM ,might see some movement in the transfer situation now that the Bale sale has being confirmed.

We'll cross that bridge when we come to it

£42.4m in the end. That must be the most a British club has paid?

As I said on the deadline day thread, Wenger does know other types of player are available, right?

 

[Ted Striker]

It could be a real stroke of genius...A player the (could have) tracked for ages, fits the bill of being a household name/great, though understanding the shit AW gets with any player he's pressured to buy, so Arsenal wait til transfer day, and launch a fair bid from a team that has just waxed 85 mil and are keen to offload

Or it's a straw clutching exercise to land the best player/name they realistically could for 40-50m.
