Hmm I posted this in Banter, this is not a rumour. was just a thought.
We can buy the best striker/forward in the world, it won't make much difference. I keep hearing we need a DMC, we have that in JW, what we need is an AMC [i'd put OX there myself] someone to run at the defence.

Wouldn't say he's the type of player for us but can score goals and he's English

Mate, Wengers been talking about "exceptional players only" for the last 3 years in that time we've signed squallichi, Chamackh and Gerviniho.

How wouldn't Ba get into these teams? He has more goals than every striker from the top 4 teams except the one we sold to our rivals.

Ive seen ba play a few times live and his off the ball game strikes me as quite lazy.
I dont doubt his stats are decent but there are better, younger and less crippled tallents avaliable.
Overall opinion is that these rumours are smoke screen for a move to psg.

Ba is agood player agreat finisher just because he plays for aweaker team thats why you underate him.

A lot of arsenal fans think that if the player doesnt cost 30m then he isnt any good. Fact is, we will never spend that amount on a player, yet we still consider ourselves a good club. Money is no gurantee..look at the sunderland - man city game, they lost and the goal was scored by a man city player that was surplus to requirements!

Would be a great signing proberly him on my arsenal shirt heheh

Hi Ed, all these rumours of strikers seem to me a lot of old rubbish, however do you see a striker arriving at the emirates this January, if so who? {Ed002's Note - I have explained before who the club were looking at. It is not worth the grief I get from the vegetables to provide too much in terms of updates anymore. Sorry.}

Is a shame you're going to let a minority of people spoil this site for alot of people who appreciate your input {Ed002's Note - I get abuse with pretty much everything - I mentioned Lopez weeks ago and it started then. It has gotten worse and even one regular started on me, so there is little benefit in providing anything in terms of new information. I will correct clear errors so you are not misled too much - but most of the time I will steer clear.}

I suggest you make it, so you have to register to post a comment. I don't mind, you can even sell my email address, if it gives the site a bit of income. it's a great site. the banter from fans from diff clubs is a laugh.it's all in good heart.
chin up Ed's, we all love ya. thanks for the site.

Ed i think that you have better sources then most people on here.you will allways get those who will disagree and you may not be right everytime, but to give in is wrong for you and the majority on here who enjoy your comments

I do forget to sign my name sometimes. I was the first comment you replied too. Can't you make this site a register only like some have suggested. The ones that actually value what others have to say

To be honest, I think maybe registration is a good thing. I use AWIMB a lot and although there is banter, anything over the mark means people are kicked off.

Demba Ba turning us down in press today. We'll sign no one and gradually slip down the table. Things looking very grim for Arsenal. Can't see the board changing anything unless they are waiting for a new manager, which seems silly and unlikely. Wenger is being royally shafted by Silent Stan and Ivan Gazidas is either Stan's puppet or in the same unlovely position as Wenger (apologizing for not spending money that isn't there). Tough times at the moment.

The transfer window is not yet open and you are already complaining. jeez..

What on earth are you talking about? Demba Ba has not "turned us down", we haven't made an offer for him.
Any stories about Ba's potential transfer are being circulated by his agent in order to drum up some interest in him. Don't believe everything you read.
Stezza.

Demba Ba is reported in various West African newspapers as saying he wants to join the tema he has supported all of his life, Paris St-Germain (PSG)

Keisuke Honda is high on Wenger's wanted list. We will try to use arshavin in part exchange deal if CSKA Moscow is insterested in him.
