We can only hope :shrug:

Like I said at the end of the season. We're stuck with Arsene, and therefore we just have to hope he sorts the mess out.

If he doesn't, I hope the resulting anger from the fans will see him out by Christmas.

Your probably right, but there's always a chance.

The selling club is the one you're interested in though, they're the ones who confirm deals before the deadline....most of the deals mentioned have been refuted by those clubs thus far, for monetary or other reasons.

Unless we have asked for an embargo on any announcements until a certain date when they can be announced by us.

That has happened before when we have bought players, the selling club hasnt said anything until after we have announced the signing

We'll see I guess, but I reckon if we had signed someone the player or club would have said something....it's usually the way. We could have signed someone who's not been mentioned in the press of course, that's possible though I don't like the sound of that so much as they're often the lesser players...

If I was to lay a little money on it;

1 x CB from the prem (Samba, Cahill, Hangeland...dunno, take your pick)
1 x LB (assuming Clichy goes)
1 x Forward (likely Gervinho)
3 x kids (Jenko done, chambermaid done, and looks like Alverez from South America)

1 x big signing (dunno who, but I reckon someone like Benzema / Eto'o)

Out:

One of Cesc or Nasri
Clichy
Bender
Denilson

Think Gervinho is another that's pretty certain.

Yup, I'd go with that.

Blackburn have talked about Samba coming here as well, so you can put a little more stock in that rumour too. Although, I don't believe anything's going to happen until it's on Arsenal.com either, far easier than believing all the BS and getting yourself hyped (or tattooed if you're a Citeh fan :lol:) for something that doesn't happen.

Alvarez is 24 I think, that'll be a first team signing rather than a kid to go into the Reserves and compete for a squad place, I'd be relatively happy with that summer if it happened tbh.

Balls, that was in reply to LDG, not that post. Stupid quoting system.

Samba's been mentioned yes, though they said they want to keep him and want more money which could be a problem.

But yeah in essence no point getting excited / tattooed for deals that may not happen anyway.
