Are we down to a squad size of 17 now?
:wacko:
Also, :haha: at their cartoons for the players :lol:
If gervinho fucks off and diaby continues his marvelous bill of health, then that's 15.
With Vermaelen out for several months and the possiblity Kos could be out too, we might not even be able to field a full bench even with the first team u21's
This can't be right can it?
They have 27 listed on Arsenal.com which includes Chamakh, Park, Frimpong, Diaby, Bendtner and Gervinho. So that's 19. Not a brilliant squad granted, but we're not quite down to 15 yet. Give it another couple of seasons.
Gervinho seems to be on his way out. Chamakh looks to be going on loan to crystal palace or qpr whilst Bendtner is negotiating additional beach time with Malaga.
They'll add to this list of transfer activity this summer: (thanks to ladyarse)

Who are those three incoming transfers in addition to Sanogo? Plus click on Dan Crowley's name for a bizarre 404 error page.
All youth team players, between 15-17yrs old IIRC.
Dan Crowley is supposedly the next big thing. Been labelled as the next Jack Wilshere :lol: So he's an overhyped Englishman who showed promise at an early age only to turn to shit after being constantly injured.
