Maybe his daughter has asked Dad for a favour.

Exactly. Even if we get Arteta and Benayoun we shouldn't lose sight of the fact that this has been a dreadful summer when it comes to our transfer dealings. We are weaker at the end of the window than we were at the start, no doubt about it.

I heard it was because we thought he had Barca DNA so we told him to fuck off

i think you're over egging it slightly. would we prefer a risk on a better player that takes 6-12 months to bed in or good players that can get into it straight away?

@phillmcnultybbs Mikel Arteta now happening because he asked to leave Everton after hearing of Arsenal's interest. #bbcfootball #fb

@johncorssmirror: Arteta forcing the deal to happen. Clearly desperate to join #afc

Yoss and Arteta might just be the bare minium tbh. Arteta willing to take a pay cut.

I hope Wenger has a surprise in addition to Arteta.
