Clichy still attracting a number of suitors, as is Bendtner, but arrivals before departures but will be a busy few weeks.
6: toral/bellerin/Jenkinson all done .. Plus loose ends on Ollsen and Chamberlain plus a certain forward. And that's just the start As I said a few weeks back I expected 8-10 signings, for youth, squad, and first team. I stand by it. With similar number out
No thanksFormer England international Mark Chamberlain has pleaded with Arsenal to buy his son Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain from Southampton.

Yes thanksARSENAL have told Real Madrid the bidding for Cesc Fabregas starts at £54million.
Real director Jose Angel Sanchez contacted the Gunners hours after Arsene Wenger declared this week there had been no inquiries for Fab.
And the Spanish giants are ready to meet Arsenal's demands in their determination to trump Barcelona.
A Real source said: "The president Florentino Perez has identified Fabregas as the one signing above all others to hurt Barcelona.
"He believes signing Fabregas would be a real statement of intent for next season. He will do whatever is needed to put the club back above Barca."
Perez is ready to sanction a £100m spending spree to keep Fabregas - also a Manchester City target - and Atletico Madrid striker Sergio Aguero out of Barcelona's clutches.
Real sources claim that Arsenal have made it clear they will not sell Fabregas to another English Club.
Barcelona-born midfielder Fabregas, 24, has set his heart on a return to the Nou Camp after eight years in England.
But the newly-crowned European Champions are not prepared to increase the £30million bid Arsenal rejected last summer.

It would be brilliant if Real gave us a ridiculous amount for him just to trump Barca.
Couldn't give a shit if that's not his preferred destination. I'll pack his bags for him.
Agreed, but it would be nicer if Real Madrid bought Aguero first, and then did a straight player swap for Fabregas.
While all answers are responses, not all responses are answers.
Real Madrid.
Great WUMs imo.
Benzema for Bendtner too please.
Arsenal are thought to be interested in Marseille's 26-year-old talented playmaker Mathieu Valbuena - potentially as a replacement for Andrey Arshavin, who has been linked to a transfer from the Emirates.

But Spurs have intensified their chase for the one-cap striker, with an increased bid of £13.2m. Arsenal are also thought to be keen.

Valbuena's the guy who played wide right (and scored) against England in the friendly last November. Short guy, dark hair.
Spurs have signed Friedel.
