When is this press conference supposed to happen....:sleep:
No news then? Will we re-sign anyone at least?
I agree Dzeko didnt set the PL on fire when he arrived but he was a bit of an impulse buy by Citeh, a kind of, 'look at the money we have, we can buy anyone we want and effectively stop others from getting them by doing so!'Quote:

He has a decent touch, good feet, holds the ball up well and can score, may need to man up for the PL but he came feom the Bundasleague (spelling?) so should be OK just not sure if he scores with his head - haven't seem much footage of that side of his game and. . . .to be fair we need to improve our crossing before we need to worry about that! miles better than Bedtner
it wouldnt be a totally shit idea to take him as part of a deal, he is slightly damaged goods because of his relatively light impact so we should receive some cash too, you take one of ours we take one of yours! Clichy you can have!
they have so much dead wood they could throw at us........once we lose another player they will be offering their leftovers at that position tooQuote:

so who are we signing today. Gervinho is due for his 42nd medical and samba will sign in 48 hours, or at least thats what i have heard over the last 3-4 weeks!!!
Yeh, I read he was an Arsenal fan too so unless we're both going mad it probably happened. :dQuote:

Still nothing happening in regards to signings then. Take it we are still waiting.
The season is only 4 weeks away and still nothing.
The pre season tour starts at the weekend and still nothing.
Keep hearing that Wenger just has to buy and restructure and still nothing.
I am at a lose TBH, I keep hearing that our board and manager cant be that stupid to wait till the end of the transfer period but thats ages away and as I say the season is only 4 weeks away, what the fuck are they playing at!!!!!!!!
RE: Mata
I hope if we do sign Mata its in addition to the squad and not as a Nasri replacement, as we really are going nowhere that way. Hopefully getting rid of Arshavin and Rosicky to accomadate him instead, which would send out much better messages.

Vidal will cost top price
Reported Arsenal target believed to be valued at £19million
...Bayer Leverkusen will not accept a cut-price offer for Arturo Vidal from any club outside of the Bundesliga amid reports of interest from Arsenal.
The Chile international, who is currently at the Copa America, has been linked with a move to Emirates Stadium this summer as a possible replacement for Cesc Fabregas.
It has also been reported that Vidal, 24, wants to follow former Leverkusen boss Jupp Heynckes to Bayern Munich.
But his club insist that their star player will not be sold to a Bundesliga rival, while any other club from around Europe would have to meet their asking price, which is rumoured to be in the region of £19million.
worth it? - shit with all the potential bids flying around you would think we had our very our billionaire owner!!!?
wait a minute......we do don't we? - but he aint like the other ones is he........he got class:rose:
Er the only link I remember seeing about him was on this forum not so long ago by KK suggesting we should go for him.
Innit.Quote:
ARSENE WENGER has vowed to do everything he can to keep Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri at Arsenal.
The Gunners star pair have both been linked with big-money moves away from the club, with Barcelona courting Fabregas and Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea all keen on Nasri.
But Wenger insists he is under no pressure to sell £40million-rated Fabregas - who has three years left on his contract.
And he also claimed he is confident he can convince Nasri to sign a new deal, despite the Frenchman having just a year left on his current terms.
Wenger said: "Our position is always the same, we want to keep Cesc and I will fight as hard as I can to keep him.
"Samir Nasri is exactly the same. We will do everything we can to keep him."
Nasri is expected to travel with the squad this weekend as Arsenal fly out to Malaysia at the start of their tour of Asia.
However Fabregas has a muscular injury and is likely to be left behind. Wenger added: "We will take the strongest possible squad.
"Fabregas will not travel because he still has a small muscular problem. He will stay and practice here. There is a doubt about Eboue who has done his calf."

Cesc hasn't traveled. He'll be sold as soon as the fee is agreed.
Nasri has traveled. His agent will stay and agree his deal to stay.
His job is simple.Quote:

we need to spend more than we ever had.......and with that kind of cash we do not need to go after projects like Gervinho (willing to give him a chance)
nobodys like Kos (who I dont mind) or useless shit like (Eboue and Bendtner)
dark days are a foot but they can be made lighter if managed correctly......this does not have to turn out as bad as it looks from the beginning
Yep.Quote:

But instead we 'have to wait for everyone else to move first' cause its impossible for us to just get our transfer business done, without endless weeks of fucking about.
In the mean time we end up 3 1st teamers short.
Wengers knows ™ cough cough!Quote:

To poor to sell our dross. Sad times.

Hugo Rodallega has claimed that Sevilla, Villarreal, Everton and Arsenal have expressed an interest in him, but for the meantime he is happy at Wigan.
The Colombian striker told Goal.com US Latino that his future is at the DW Stadium, but admitted that he has always liked Arsene Wenger's side.
"I like playing and I have many teams where I could play but for now my future is with Wigan. I have a year left on my contract, but I [would] go to another team if the opportunity arises, and well, I've always liked Arsenal.
"There are many teams interested, it's true. Villarreal, Sevilla, Arsenal also have [had] some interest, Everton of England, but it all is speculation," he stated.
The former Necaxa attacker scored pivotal goals to keep Roberto Martinez's outfit in the Premier League in 2010-11, and is currently on international duty at the Copa America.
How are we "too poor" though? We're owned by a multi-billionaire whose wife's family owns Walmart.Quote:

We like to do things the "right way", this means selling first team players for 10, 15 or 20 million and internally promoting from within.Quote:

But we do have to remember - ticket prices wise - that our real estate and costs are higher than Northern teams.Quote:
