I bet Glam just wants to stay close to his bezzie Ozil, heard those two are pretty much inseperable.

As for arteta, I saw that a lot of the players hold him in very high regard and say that him and per are the most helpful players in the dressing room. If there was things he was doing behind closed doors that contributed to our amazing form during the second half of the season, then it would be a wise move to keep him in that dressing room for the upcoming season.

I also agree mate - Arteta has been a good servant to the club in fairness to him; he's not good enough to challenge for the title. The only reason Wenger has kept him around is because we don't have another world class DM to challenge Le Coq and Flamini should be leaving this summer.

I really do hope Wenger does sign Carvalho/ Bender or the like as leaving it until next summer seems to last minute - any new player will need to adapt and get harmonised with the team and the league, and possibly the language.

The thing about Arsene, that seems to get lost, is that he is Loyal to the players who were loyal to him.............Arteta, Flamini - even though he did leave to return - Diaby - even though he was injured for must of his stay - Rosicky are all players who stayed when the others were leaving. And in my view he is keeping Arteta and Rosicky - especially- as a THANK YOU for their loyalty. So they can be part of a championship squad.

I do expect to see a quality defensive midfielder come in, though he has played Ramsey and Jack in that position during Pre Season.

I doubt we will see another striker, because Welbeck, Alexis, Walcott and Akpom can all play down the middle as well as down the flanks, Giroud is an excellent No. 9 and when fully fit, is a 20 goal a season man.

I like that fact that we have a settled squad, a great keeper, a back 4 who can defend as well as push forward, Metersacker and Kos will start as the pair in the middle with Dubcey and Gibbs on the flanks.....Couqulin and Santi in front of that 4 , Ozil - and this well be a massive season for him - at top with Alexis and IMO the Ox on the other flank..................

If carvalho is his preferred target then he will have to wait till jan or next summer. And leaving it till next summer is next summer
