The centre back we are buying should be squillaci.


Nice timing. .deal has been struck.8 million.He will sign 2moro. Cant say im very happy to have another injury prone player!

As it has now been made public by their national media I may as well confirm that Arsenal have offers accepted for

Sebastien Squillaci
&
Riccardo Montolivo

All the rest were allowed to send the agents the wrong way. Arsenal do not deal with clubs who go public with their interest and only Montolivo is not certain to join as Italian players are notoriously difficult to get to move.

ED your thoughts on this:

Vertonghan and Stekleberg will not be going to Arsenal. Both played in the champions league last night for Ajax. .Given is a maybe now, it was thought he would be going to Fulham but the player doesn't fancy it. Its a toss up between Signing for Arsenal or going on loan at Celtic. Mancini has said he will not play in the Europa league 2more, this suggests he will be going to one of the 2, as he won't be cup tied. {editor's note - it does seem spot on, though I still feel Schwarzer will be the keeper signed.}

Due to samir nasri being out for a month Arsene may feel we are a couple of players short in midfield especially as Ramey is out and injuries during the season is inevitable. His interest in Anders Herrera may re-ignite. This would be the only player coming to the emirates in the midfied department. I'm confident a new GK will come in, Schwarzer is looking more likely by the day, or Given (unlikely Man city will only sell if Gen hands in a transfer request). For defenders, it will be a player playing in the Bundesliga. This could be subotic, naldo, tasci. . .and maybe a young french defender but this is if we are really short. Havard Nordveit will step up this year and challenge for the CB role. HE will play in the carling cup as Wenger sees him as a versatile player and is a asset for the future. Expect Vela to play on Saturday. With Real Madrid once again signing anther player in esut Ozil expect a few players from Real going to the Prem or italy. Arsene will take a serious look at surplus players in Real

Arsenal will sign shay given + 1 other defender mabye tasci and could get honda in january =)

I believe that Arsenal are going to sign Stekelenburg as Man City won't let Given join rivals, I hope this deal happens as he is a great kepper.

I want Arsenal to sign a good, young, strong defender somebody like Subotic or Sakho.

We also need a new midfielder as against Liverpool are midfield looked poor, i wouldn't mind a player like Melo or a strong player like him, that is all we need to win the title this year.

Arsenal are on the verge of signing Shay Given
As well as this Arsene wants to bolster his defence so expect a cd to sign within the next couple of days
Most likely to be subotic/spahic/Tasci

Arsene wenger is a huge admirer of Ben Arfa so wouldn't be suprised if Arsene made a bid for him.

This is very reliable evidence. I have close contact with the backroom staff at arsenal.

Any more rumours re goalee?

Acording to a newspaper, Arsenal may sent a offer for SWP, and they are also interesting in Ben Arfa. Given is a new gk. i believe it's 60% done deal.
