Suarez is now 5/4 favs from 6/4 second favs v RMadrid on . This has changed over the last few hours. How do determine this? Interesting and yet again getting my hopes up.

The last time I posted on here was just over a year ago and I do love the site (even though 100% of the time it is in pure frustration) and there's great work done by the eds. Malaga you are a joker! (in a good way - keep it up).

I'm sick of this. So sick it is having a detrimental effect on my health. Sick of being mugged off by the Arsenal hierarchy every transfer window since we were great. I'm a die hard Arsenal fan, have been since the age of 7 and share every moment of glory and pain we endure. Now, it is bang out of order the ticket pricing which is being employed (HIGHEST IN THE WORLD!) and we faf around with a few million here and there and end up with Higuain going to Napoli. I do understand that a few million here and there does, in the long run, result in poor business but when we charge what we do for the tickets then that is just bang out of order. And let's face it, once the deal is cemented (which it pretty much is) Real will sign Suarez.

I'm a massive fan of Giroud, infact I think some of the criticism of most of our squad is pretty harsh. I won't go on to specify and bore but with one marquee signing and a few bad boys thrown in (CB - Micah Richards, who is a gooner, DM - Capoue/Kondogbia, S - Suarez) then players who are deemed average by a lot, like Rambo, would flourish.

I am do have a blind love for Wenger and I'm happy for this to continue as he has given me so much joy. But I want this bs which happens every transfer window to STOP! And this leads me to exactly why I posted this long rant. I'm completely confused and hacked off. What is the answer to end this? I hated that black scarf crap and I despise all who start booing our players (Eboue - although that was rare) and giving off collected sighs when a missed place pass occurs at the Emirates. But it's getting to the stage where I'm thinking that something more than a black scarf parade needs to be employed. WE ARE BEING MUGGED. The transfer window has been open for 23 days, we have £70 million to spend and we have bought Sanogo!WTF! And Manchester United are throwing bids at Fabregas. Too much. In writing this I'm actually being quite rude to my girlfriend - this is what this s### is doing to me and I'm sure this is happening to other Gooners.

I was so confident we would sign Higuain I posted smugly on fb this a few weeks ago ("What's that sound heading towards the Emirates. HIG, HIG, HIG, HIG, HIG"). So not only am I confused, hacked off, frustrated, sick; I am humiliated (probably because I am a mug!).

If we don't sign anyone sick this transfer window I am going to be so angry - I am already angry as f###.

1.) Understand your frustration fella, but don't let it f**k you up. Wait until the end of the window and we'll see where we are.
Now from a fellow GOONER and complete stranger, kiss your girlfriend if she'll let you, and tell her that your sorry.

2.) I think most of us understand where your coming from.

I think its taking time because they are trying to make some big deals.

I am saving my anger and rant for the when the window closes.

I am hoping I won't need I!

Stay cool, let's see what happens.

P. S.
As I am writing this I have just heard that LFC have rejected a 40mil+ £1 offer for suarez (meeting the 40mil clause).
You know what? Arsenal have just bid 40mil on a player!
I know bidding and completing a deal are 2 different things, but I like the fact we are actually make these huge bids. that has to be encouraging.

3.) Thanks for the advice Flybo, albeit I did apologise to her shortly after posting. It felt good getting that off my chest. It's been 23 days in the making. I don't want us to spend money for the sake of it, I just feel our squad has the potential to be title challengers next season and honestly feel the higher powers are happy with Champions League football every season. I know it's pesimistic but I honestly don't see us signing anyone above 20mil.

4.) Hey steve.

be a little patient mate the window has a long way to go.

Excellent post and I've always rated Di Maria very highly - has the same technical ability as RVP.

The musts are:

- CB (preferably a versatile one who can play RB + LB).
- DM
- I'm getting used to the idea of Suarez and £50mil a no go so a versatile winger will do and push Podolski or Theo into the middle to replace Giroud pending injuries/rest.

In terms of names I have gone on and on about names in my head over the years and clearly mine and AWs ideas are different. I just hope the right acquisitions are made soon.
