ED do you no anything about Leandro Damiao, Thierry Henry, Gary Cahill ,Douglas Costa, Daniele De Rossi, Juan Manuel Vargas,montilivo and reus they are all linked with the club but will any of them join. and do you reckon arsenal could catch up to the title :) {Ed001's Note - Damiao I have never heard linked with Arsenal. Henry is simply keeping fit by training with the club during the off season. Cahill is a main target for Chelsea, never heard him linked with Arsenal. No idea about Costa or De Rossi. Vargas was linked before Santos signed. Montolivo I don't know anything about either. Reus has been linked but I am told it is unlikely in January. As for the title, no I don't think Arsenal have a chance of winning the league this season. I can't see City or United both dropping enough points to allow Arsenal to catch up.}

Ed you haven't head of gary cahill being linked with arsenal? where have you been for the past couple years? {Ed001's Note - has he joined in previous years? No, because the links were nonsense and I was referring to solid links from people I trust, not tabloid lies. Chelsea and Spurs are the only ones showing a current interest in him. Though it is difficult to be sure as teams don't really need to scout him any longer.}

I heard an offer was put on the table to Internacional by Arsenal. One was also made from Spurs.

Ed it's fair to say that if Bolton had accepted our offer this summer then he would have joined us. Cahill may think he's going to Chelsea but that doesn't mean that Spurs and we aren't trying to get him. I hope we don't, but even so, he's probably been our strongest linked player!

I hope he goes to Chelsea or Spurs. He doesn't impress me at all, and I believe he is about as good as Djourou if I'm honest. The problem will be if he develops into a much better player.

Thanks we will buy him then, be a lot better than that stranded German tank you bought.

Spuds made an offer for damiao in the summer, but it got rejected

just seen on twitter-not best source, something about new investment from alisher usmanov and new leadership from david dein, watch this space...: hopeful?

I read your post and went to Usmanov's twitter page (not following him though) - it's pretty funny:

'Tony Adams will re-sign following #Kroncky being oust #arsenallegend'

'I have arranged for Arsenal legend to train with us' (Henry pic link)

'Dear @SeppBlatter are you #Kroncky in disguise? #OUT'

The list goes on, his twitter is hilarious, go and check it out it's worth it. Surely it can't be his, some of the stuff he's saying?!

Raz

Very unlikely as Usmanov is not even on the board and with the new financial regulations coming into place clubs will only be able to spend what they earn

Ive just seen on there-twitter, not usmanovs page-if its a real one, someone else,that kronke has been asked to consider it,and there has been some movement.

AST(Arsenal Supporters Trust) members are saying that changes could well be happening. Originally posted by Alex Fynn who is very engrossed in the finances of top football clubs. He has links in to Arsenal.

Johnson has signed a new 5 year deal at city

Has he? does say somewhere
Man City offered a new deal doubling his wages to �80,000 a week but didnt know hed signed. Must enjoy getting paid for nothing, must have no ambition.
