So is everyone happy? We got a new goalie with experience to challenge and push Chesney, a much needed DM in Flamini, a world class no10 in ozil and I reckon the Ox is going to step up this year, is going to be his year to shine as Gervinho&Arshavin have left. I am happy but I still think Wenger has left us short again, the big teams have squads of 22-25, 2 in each position fighting for places, I just don't think we are there and still think we lack that bit of bite. Mohammed Sissoko has terminated his contract with PSG - can still be signed, what would others think to a 6ft3 beast sitting on the bench, I am not saying he is great but woul dyou rather him on a 17yr old there in a CL QF game March when we have 8 injured?!
1.) Just remember how good diaby was for two games before injury.
2.) Ed was saying we can't sign him because he wasn't free agent during the last window. January maybe then? Although he will surely find a club to train at, they will then have the upper hand in signing him.
Ed is that only a rule for the prem? Would he be able to move to another league? Or get a club in France. Don't really understand the rule.
Thanks {Ed044's Note - He can move anywhere that the window is still open or when a window opens.}

Sakho expected in Liverpool within 24 hours for a medical and talks before a £13m move expected to be complete over the weekend! saddened if this goes thru, had really hoped we would sign him, great player for that money.
1.) I though wenger really liked this guy? if so why would nt he make a move? hard to figure out!

My feelings for the future are this - AW to leave next summer at end of contract, before that he will do what he done 2 years ago and bring in a 3 or 4 average squad players during deadline weekend which he thinks is enough because our starting 11 is as good as (he thinks) it can be!
He seems to forget EVERY single season we have a spell of having 10 players injured and we have to use the inferior youth/squad players we have and our numbers are super short this year after (quite rightly) releasing and getting rid of who we did.
Anyway next summer will see the new manager (not sure who as yet) who will come in use the great youth we have and he will not be shy in spending £100m next year to make us have a great 20 man squad!
1.) Wise up, Its Wenger that won't spend the money!
2.) The quite american might have a say in this
3.) You are so right - a manager who picks the sides and updates press on injuries plus has done what he has for the club including going unbeaten in a season is not aware we have injuries!
Stick to the play station - have you gone unbeaten there, signed players and now think you are an expert?
Just because we have 70m doesn't make it easy to buy
It's not like going to Asda to get Cornflakes - give him time
He is coming with kaka, 1 yr loan (spits on already flipped and kicked table)
If Di Maris is 34mil, I would go for otzil at 38mil but I still reckon menez from PSG, Mata would be better and cheaper

don;t know if believable, but not surprising if true
If any attacking player I would say moses. but I don't want
We should be raiding PSG, so many good players they don't want! we should go for a triple swoop I reckon - Sakho for defence, clement chantome for midfield (him and flamini for DCM) and to complete the set Jeremy Menez - three players not wanted, 3 players to fill much needed positions in the squad. I would still take micah richards for the squad/competition. Also from Real I would rather Benzema & Kaka oh and a goalie so 8 players total! that's good enough for me, except for benzema no bif transfer fees so Wenger is happy too!
As soon as Theo learsn tghe best runs to make, I am sure he will be on the end of many ozil passes - podolski, cazorla & giroud to make best use of his passes is my guess.
He can be good but he injured himself for about 2-3 months before by trying to step over the ball! cannot deal with pacey strikers either but a decent CB overall
My thoughts is he is a centre forward and like cazorla (the ACM) he hates being played on the left bloody wing - SIGN A LW WENGER, leave the central players in the middle!
Ozil is £38mil on his own so him and benzema total £80mil so no chance, my choice would be kaka, not a bad player to have in your team or on the bench! wenger needs to be booed - not doing anything so far is a disgrace, actually so jealous of what the **** at WHL have done this summer, very impressive work!
