Just need to get rid of the rubbish now...any offers for Bendy, Park, Squillaci & Chamakh?
i hope so. but then i go back to the giroud signing and the fact rvp announced he's leaving a few days later. i cant help but feel walcott is not going to sign a new contract so cazorla is his replacement. when was the last time wenger splashed so much on an experienced, established player, in order to increase competition in the squad? it rarely happens. at least post invincibles it hasn't.

i hope walcott stays because it gives us real strength and depth, something we've not had since the invincibles.

on the bright side, in the last 2 years we've signed koscielny (26), squillaci (31), chamakh (28), santos (29), arteta (30) and mertesacker (27). add to that podolski (27), giroud (25) and cazorla (27), and it tells us project youth is well and truly dead. we're heading for a new direction.
