Morgan Schneiderlin has started following Tottenham Official on Twitter
Could be just following his ex-managers new club or maybe a move in the offing
I thought he would be a good cheaper alternative to Kheidra for us
{Ed002's Note - They are also interested in him.}
1.) I thought they had sandro and paulinho to fill that role?
2.) Maybe they want someone decent
3.) Fear not, he's seen the error of his ways and unfollowed them now.
If he signs for us, as long as he works hard, I'm sure we can forgive him for that moment of weakness.

Arsenal have agreed personal terms with Toulouse defender Serge Aurier.
Aurier has been strongly linked with a switch to Arsenal all summer, with the club in need of a new right-back following the departure of Bacary Sagna to Manchester City.
And now the Metro website claim the Gunners have agreed terms to sign the Ivory Coast international on a five-year deal.

Metro!!

According to reports in France, Bacary Sagna has put pen to paper on a three year £150,000 a week deal with Man City.
Gutted, I know it's been on the cards for a while but was really hoping we could sort something out with him to stay.
Wish him well, he gave his best right to the end
1.) He is just looking for one final big pay day really, no way would Arsenal pay anywhere near 150k per week for a RB at 31. A good servant but this Augier sounds a decent replacement will be a lot cheaper in comparison.

We are rumoured to be negotiating with Schalke over the transfer of Julian Draxler, fee £40M
Also considering a bid for Kaka!
Are we after every RM player?
1.) Apparently shalke want 60mill for him. Said that's even his worth. It won't happen.
We should be getting sahko!
2.) Yet another one for AW and SK to say they TRIED to sign!
3.) I thought his buyout clause was around 38 mill. but yeah won't happen anyway

We are apparently launching a triple swoop for Yohan Cabaye (increased bid of £16M), Geoffrey Kondogbia and Schalke Full Back Atsuto Uchida (Source: )
Other papers/sources mentioning Micah Richards and also double swoop for Swansea pair Michu/Ashley Williams
Don't you think this all reeks of panic!
Would love David Dein back at the club, an excellent transfer negotiator!
{Ed022's Note - Panic buying brings us Park, Santos etc... Should have wrapped up 3-4 signings before the middle of July, end of. Those are the facts...}
1.) A RB isn't what we need - both of them are fit! we need a CB, GK, DM, CM, LW, ST - absolute shambles of a club at the moment - Willian to spurs is another huge kick in the teeth.
2.) Kondogbia will be world class in two/three seasons, described by respected ex pro's and pundits as 'Vieira with a left foot'.
{Ed022's Note - Also mentioned by me on another post...}
3.) Rubbish. I love panic buys. When we panic buy, we forget about price negotiations and the price and do whatever it takes to get the player. What we should of done to be honest.
Go Panic Buys. I hope we do it every transfer window. i'm loving this.
{Ed022's Note - A few panic buys of recent years: Squillaci, Santos, Park and five years ago, Mikael Silvestre...}
4.) Are you referring to the same Dein who chased an elusive Baptista over an entire summer. Memories are certainly short. Importantly times have changed. The problem, as everyone can see is more with the Manager than with the negotiating team.
5.) Here we go again. Every player we go after is suddenly on another clubs radar. Why do we mess around and try and save a few quid when if we were sensible in the first place we could get the deals done quickly and quietly. It is an absolute joke and now that teams know we are despertae the price goes up. Wenger, an economist - rubbish!
6.) Panic was quite a good player -Serbian international, can't think why we didn't get him!
{Ed022's Note - I'd take Pjanic at this rate...}
7.) Arteta and Mertsesacker were good panic buys
{Ed022's Note - Mertesacker? Really? I've never been 100% convinced or comfortable with him playing. The guy's got a turning circle of an Artic tanker. He's slow and regularly gets out jumped!? Yes, he reads the game well and has formed a partnership with Koscielny but thats because Koscielny is fast enough to cover Mertesacker being stripped for pace. Arteta is quality no doubt about it. More to the point, forget panic buys, sort the transfer early, intergrate them into the squad by taking them on tour, give the the whole Emirates Cup and a friendly against PL opposition in Man City and then have a squad and fans full of optimism and hunger ready for the season rather than Arsenal fans (and probably players who are depressed and fed up...}

Eds, is it true what I'm hearing that the Remy deal has fallen through due to his wages demands. Shame if it does as I think he'd be good addition to the squad
Also re goalkeepers, are we close to signing competition/back-up for Szczesny
{Ed027's Note - don't know mate, and Ospina is of interest from Arsenal
1.) Dags will need to take a cut in his commission for the deal to go through then!
2.) 11 Jul 2014 16:18:08
Gooner,
I'm working for love alone, no commission lol.
07 Jul 2014 12:23:35
Eds, I never get too excited until done and dusted, but it seems from what I hear and read that moves for Sanchez and Debuchey are progressing well
Of the other names being thrown around are any realistic possibilities
Kheidra
Remy
Valdes
Bender
Cuadrado
1.) Lol you are excited my friend. We all are lol . SANCHEZ.!
31 Jan 2014 12:46:52
Eds
From the following names
Draxler
Kallstrom
Vucinic
Berbatov
Morata
Any of these likely today? Someone else I'm missing
{Ed013's Note - Draxler I now doubt, Kallstrom yes, Vucinic unsure, Berbatov is off to Monaco and Morata unsure}
1.) 1 I hope maybe 2 and its not the middle 3, but i'm going back to cloud cuckoo land to talk to wenger

Hi Eds
Not a transfer rumour but was just wondering if the club were close to agreeing a deal with Bacary Sagna?
Cheers
{Ed002's Note - I don't know how to measure close unless he has a pen in his hand.}

Well it's finally over!
Delighted with Ozil but still feel we are a bit short
Still if we can get everyone fit, who knows?
Thank you Eds for all your hard work over past few months and answering the endless questions!
A very negative post, the team have done so well this season and there is a new resilience about them. We would all like Draxler etc to come and they seem to be working hard on it, but if it doesn't happen so be it. Klose would be a good person to come off the bench in the last 20 mins and nick a goal. Personally I think Vucinic is more likely
This guy is good, he may not be backup for long
Given is heading for Liverpool as their No. 2. I think it's affecting us all this bloody transfer window, we are desperate for anyone!
Apparently gunners89 this was an old picture of his medical when signing for Barca
