If we qualify for the CL proper tonight, can anyone think of any other excuse that could be used to avoid signing players? We've been through the waiting period (I'm beginning to suspect Wenger made that up but that's because I'm a conspiracy theorist), Cesc deal, check! Nasri deal, check! Down to the final days having wasted the whole summer, check! Players waiting to see if we qualify for the CL before signing (sorting that tonight). So what else could stop us at least bidding for a player this week? What trick will they use?
Für eure Sicherheit
Wenger in a week: "You must understand that it is difficult for clubs to let their best players leave the team when the season is so close to starting. I am confident in my squad and we believe we have the strength to go for the title."
Some garbage like that.

http://www.skysports.com/story/0,195...122075,00.htmlArgentine striker Mauro Zarate has fuelled speculation about his future by admitting it is currently 'impossible' for him to stay at Lazio.
The former Birmingham forward has been linked with a return to the Premier League over the summer, with Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea all rumoured to be interested in the 24-year-old.
The Rome club are not actively looking to sell the frontman but have previously revealed they would consider any offer that comes in.
Zarate, who is rumoured to have fallen out with coach Edy Reja, insists he does not want to leave the Biancocelesti but admits conditions at the club currently mean he may have to move on.
"It's not true I want to leave Lazio," said Zarate in the Italian media.
"But in these conditions it is practically impossible for me to remain.
"With my team-mates everything is okay. It's the president who must decide. We must see."
Get to buying AW

Expect the rumour mill to go into overdrive now then.
I'm predicting another Arshavin, Cole-Gallas/Baptista mental deadline day.
