Reports are the Di Maria will be transfer listed in the summer.

Would be perfect for us, another attacking option that would cover Arshavin and hopefully Gervinhios departures.

Another dream that won't pan out.

he's absolutely what we need. a great winger that whose best position IS ACTUALLY THE WING!

Agree1 Disagree0

This player has not been the most reliable performer in the past - so what will we end up with?

Agree0 Disagree0

Do you honestly think someone playing for Real will move to us?

Agree0 Disagree0

^ Yes. We are the 4th richest club in the world with constant CL football, one of the best managers in the world and play in the best league in the world.

Stop following what the media says like a sheep.

Agree0 Disagree1

When you say don't listen to the media as oppose to what the fans leaving after 20 mins or so or the countless remarks made on here by many many fans. I think you are dissilusioned

Dave what are u on about, the media clearly has hyped the so called downfall of arsenal like they do every year, and it's not the proper arsenal fans that are leaving early its the fake fans who listen to the media and people like piers Morgan, there are clearly things wrong at arsenal but we are a massive team still and most players in the world would join us

Agree0 Disagree0

^^^ Agreed. The way it's harped on about in the media you would think we were the next Liverpool. we're not there yet!

Probably already been posted but we're meant to be in talks over a free transfer this summer for Fernando Amorebieta. He's 27 years old and he's a CB for Bilbao. Capoue and Jovetic too are meant to be targets according to the media.

Believable30 Unbelievable13

Heard about this too.
Apparently happening in June.

Agree0 Disagree0

Amorbieta, is a tragedy waiting to happen.

He just looks so awkward and cumbersome, like Mertesaker but bad.
I'd really be annoyed if he was Wengers answer to our troubles!

D

Agree0 Disagree0

Yes, but he is a free transfer - typical stingy Arsenal!

Agree0 Disagree0

Amorebieta is a very realistic target as he will be free, but as for Capoue and Jovetic I find that highly unlikely the media having been linking Capoue for a couple of seasons and as for Jovetic i'd doubt it because that's what the media do they just make stories sell papers and magazines and what not. But never say never so who knows what will happen, let's hope so.

Just heard Jurgen Klopp is front runner for Arsenal job! Maybe he will bring a few the Dortmond stars with him.

Yeah right I presume it was someone on the board who told you, you just can't make this stuff up!!

Agree0 Disagree0

Leave a club where your loved, that you've taken from mediocrity, to competing in all domestic trophies, and playing in the UCL, to join arsenal, where we currently have no money, no hope, and no chance.

Seems legit.

D

Agree0 Disagree0

Yup his source is a guy called Dijon or as they call him french mustard. try and ketchup.

Agree0 Disagree0

Last summer I wasn't reliable but this is obviously false.

FISH and CHIPS

Agree0 Disagree0

No money no hope no chance, try asking that to the rest of the teams who are behind us in the league, wether they have, spoilt or what

Agree0 Disagree0

What job is avaliable at the moment?

Agree0 Disagree0

Klopp is wanted by a lot of clubs, not least Chelsea and Man City. He has stated that he will not leave Dortmund in the near future as he wants to continue the project he has started. Shame, he would be a perfect fit for us.

Bridgers

Agree0 Disagree0

Wenger is going nowhere. He'll stay and see out the remainder of his contract at the very least, they owe him that.

Wenger has always had a reputation of shielding his players from media attacks and I think this is where all the Wenger Out crowd have come from, the players are at fault as much if not more than the manager.

all that said, I do think its time for a change, but who the current board will pay for is anyones guess.

Agree0 Disagree0

Can the eds or anyone tell me is this talk about finances finally being available after the sponsors renewed the contracts true.

Have we freed up money now? is the move to the new stadium now going to pay off? Can we expect changes or is this the decline of our great club. Sorry for all the questions lads just need answers I'm sick tonight. {Ed001's Note - there has been money to spend for a while, someone decides not to spend it.}

Believable24 Unbelievable1

The problem is wenger. playing carzola on the wing? he won't play the winning team always has to change the team, well we need a change with a new board and manager.

Agree1 Disagree1

Cazorla has played on the wing in Spain. so if he played centrally. where would jack play. as part of the double pivot? Wldnt you want wilshere to be allowed to roam free centrally?

Agree0 Disagree0

Szez
Sagna, Kos, Verm, Monreal
Diaby
Cazorla Wilshere
Theo Giroud Podo

This is how we should play

Agree0 Disagree0

Diaby's no defensive midfielder mate. He may be hard to beat, physical and lanky enough to get in some difficult looking challenges, but the guys way more attack minded than defence. when he eventually plays that is!

Would love to see a more traditional 4-3-3 with two attacking mids (Jack and Santi), but if it's just the one then I think Wenger's doing the right thing in rotating them. Jack and Santi both excell in the 'number 10' role, yet both can play just as well in other positions. Jack as a CM and Santi as a winger.

i only just saw jacks post match interview and I might get kaned for saying this but I got choked up seeing how hurt he was after that result. he was by far the best player on the pitch tonight.
i know he's still young but he's proper captain material and next season should be handed the armband.
we need to get rid of the crap we have and bring in some top players and build a team around him, he gives his all every time he's on the pitch.

Believable87 Unbelievable6

God please don't make him the captain. I usually means he will be sold a year later! Jokes aside if we don't build a team around him capable of winning things he to will be on his way sooner rather than later. This isnot a slur against jack I love the lad but he will want trophies eventually.

Agree0 Disagree0

I felt everyone did give everything on the pitch and i'm proud of that. we just played a better team, simple fact.

Agree1 Disagree1

Agreed, JW10 is the only world class played in our squad now, I remember when we had a team full of world class players.

Agree2 Disagree0

I don't understand. How can you assess that Jack was the best player on the pitch if you only saw his post match interview. Nevertheless, he was the best player in a red shirt yesterday and the only player I think could play for any of the top, top clubs in Europe. NW4

Agree0 Disagree0

I did see the match but never saw the interviews till later on. jack was by far our best player
