The press aren't the ones that don't sign players, neither are they the ones that force him to rely on crocks, or indeed pick sub standard players whilst all the time pretending they are super super quality.

They are also not the ones who says sh*t about signing someone if we find a top top player and then bring in noone at all or bring in players like Chamakh, Squllaci and Silvestre.

If what was happening on the pitch was fine the stuff the press print with would be largely irrelevant.

no true, they dont sign those players taht are shit or pick the team (that is a seperate point to mine) however, wenger says nothing about a player apart from he is on a list that he has looked at and isnt high on it and suddenly we are going sign him as we are interested in him from that wenger comment. they then tell the fans, fans get excited, nothing happens as wenger wasnt actually that interested in him, fans go mad.

I'm not excited about signing this Zaha bloke, I'd rather we didn't to be honest, another kid with potential when what we need is quality. We don't get linked with top players so I doubt we're left disappointed.

The only disappoitment is going through a transfer window signing noone or nobodies and never addressing the issues in the team with quality solutions.

So if this Zaha is a nobody why are Madrid/Barca/Utd/City. After him. Also your missing Ollie's point. His point was never about the press signing players.

It was about the press linking players to us, because of one comment. So because Arsene says he likes the boy that does not mean he wants to sign him which is Ollies point.

No idea, I'm not sure they are, apparently all these top clubs were interested in Senderos once upon at time if you believe what you read.

He's playing in the championship and has scored a handful of goals, big f*cking deal.

Yeah I understand the comment, I'm not sure what impact it has though, we get linked to sh*t most of the time so we're hardly left disappointed when we don't sign them.

The papaers have always done this, its just a thing that is done tbh. Its easy to twist things its sells papers. Wenger " I was impressed with Huntelaar", You know Back page will will put a bid in.

But its nearly transfer season, you have to expect them to do this.

thats wrong though, we get linked to players like zaha, and rightly go thats not what we need right now, we need proven players etc etc, we dont sign them and then at hte end of window people will say, why didnt we sign zaha at least, wenger said he was interested.
