{Ed022's Note - Hi all, there has been a Player Profile Updated on Seydou Doumbia of CSKA Moscow. Reports suggest that Arsenal are interested in the Striker, and to say he is prolific is an understatement. Be sure to check out the 'Your Profiles' section also, as there are plenty of profiles for you Arsenal fans, including one on M'Baye Niang and more. I also understand an Arsenal fan is working on a Cazorla profile for you Gooners also, so thats one to look out for! www.player-profiles.co.uk - thanks all.}

Besiktas are not looking to sign out-of-favour Arsenal striker Marouane Chamakh this summer, according to the Turkish club's manager.

Please let this happen. please take this muppet

I love how every club is defending themselves with "we dont want him" like hes some no good player. oh wait.

West Ham were looking at him

If RvP leaves Chamakh stays

My cousin Ben Knapper is one of the analysts at the club, he told me that arsenal will definately sign 2 more players, he says they will be a DM and an AMF which i believe will be ganso and mvilla :) this is a genuine source and I am the first to let you all know

I'm beginning to get fairly confident carzola is coming!

Sorry buddy, but I think "ben" is winding you up....

Billybob

M'Vila isnt coming arsenal withdrew their interest couple weeks ago after Yanns hissy fit plus the DM Target is that of either Etienne Capoue or Steven N'Zonzi

Doubt it's Ganso, he's already confirmed he wants to stay at Santos, Cazorla looks to be the player.

My club has analysts?
Do the players know about this?

Ganso hasn't confirmed anything, santos have confirmed he won't play for them again so two very contrasting stories

DD

Arsene Wenger has already come out and said we have too many midfielders, unless one gets injured nobody will be coming in. he wants to give a chance to Coquelin and Diaby.... so much for Yann M'Villa deal being done as so many of you have reported through your 'sources'!
Brad

Didn't you post this same post only a few days ago?

Ganso came out yesterday saying he's staying at Santos.

Ganso is a difficult scenario, his agent said he's leaving santos 100%

Ganso says he wants to stay at santos.

And santos apparently say he won't play for them again.

So anyone could be true, they could all change their tune and say something different in the coming days.

IF he left, and with santos desperate to keep Neymar, I can see it being a possibility, I've just got this feeling it'll be Porto and AC Milan.

Milan have been highly linked with him in the past, he even once said it was the only club he'd join.
And with Porto a haven for south American players and moutinho touted to move to Spuds or Chelski, I can see him fitting in well!

D

Ganso will not come because of co-ownership. M'vila will only come if Diaby or Wilshere suffer setbacks.

The players coming in depends on the players leaving.

I wonder is his name Ben Dover?
Sounds like u've been screwed, Ganso will not come, he part owned like Tevez was and arsenal wont even touch that kinda situation, M'Vila i'm not sure but we definitely need a proper DM that likes to defend, someone like N.DeJong/Mascherano would be better for us

Hasnt wenger come out and says we dont need anybody and has said no in regards to m'vila as we have diaby back. M'vila is a no go and i dont think a mid will be bought. A versatile defemder, gk and striker to replace rvp will be signed. Doubt we should expect big names though

Definitely ,whether ben says it or not but we can all smell some fresh blood

Yur the first to tell us? Who are you? Ya didn't leave a name!

Sheeny

COBBLERS GOONER...... Ganso staying, M'Vila interest dropped.... come on kid, sort yourself out

All this stuff on m'vila has annoyed me a little cos I think he's a class player and would suit arsenal down to the ground but abou Diaby despite his injury problems is a great player and one we've missed along with Wilshere and also we've got coquelin and frimpong coming through so now with me and think if RVP goes we get lewandowski and someone like Cazorla/Hanson midfield and possibly affellay and we have a great team,

So Arsene says RvP will stay like he did with Cesc and Nasri, yet you don't believe that. He says no interest in M'Vila and you believe that...
Just wait and see. He will be an Arsenal players.

I dont think wenger is going to buy another striker if RVP goes.

perhaps he will convince walcott that he can fight for the central role with giroud.

The latest revelation that bendtner may stay maybe linked with the vacancy too.

The only hope we have is that our style of play and manager can do something to pull a rabbit out of the hat.

But in terms of quality players we have Wilshere, Song, Verm, Kos and Sagna.

When you look at City and Chelsea and perhaps even utd they have more talent compared to our 5 players.

With RVP gone whatever hope we had of winning the league is gone. Im not saying we cant hope. but sometimes getting to grips with reality is better.

Ive done this for 7 years. I will support the team but wengers B.S, i aint falling for it no more.

All the m'villa rumours are false here is Arsen's quote saying ''Wenger also dismissed talk of a move for Yann M�Vila and said he is already well stocked in midfield''.

Who da hell is hanson?? u mean alan hansen or the 3 brother band from the 90's hanson mmm bop

Diaby is not a 'Great' player, he can be quite skillful and knows how to shoot but definately not a great player and can not be relied on due to injuries.

Also how can he be classed as a defensive midfielder?

Diaby is not a great player firstly, can't stand the guy...always tries too much and god forbid he actually pulls off one of his stupid runs, then he wont pass to save his life with his new-found confidence...
we desperately need m'vila. he's the parker of this summer's window, and we can't make the same mistake twice...

Wenger has essentailly said that unless diaby or any of our other holding midfielders, and yes diaby is a holding midfielder, get injured then we will not sign another midfielder if one does get injured we may sign m'villa when we have returned from asia.

Any chance Bendtner stays and fight for his place? Any source? Hope so, he will flourish!

Parker is s***

In all honesty, I love Diaby - but I think we would all be surprised if he made it through 4 or 5 games un-scathed. His come back last season at Liverpool lasted less than 45 minutes, the most he has done is play a game then be on the bench - to me it sounds as though Wenger doesnt want to give up on him but knows that a reliance upon him is a bit of a pointless exercise... 'you have pre-season to prove to me that I can rely on you, if you can't, then I'm sorry Abou but we will have to go another way' sounds like a fair conversation from a fair man. It is unfortunate that players like RvP spit this in his face.

Hanson??? WTF?!?!?!?

I don't know why I check this site out several times every day. I'm just addicted even though I know that 99% of all the rumours here are BS and even that 1% is filled with lucky guesses without any real "inside connections"

Anyway, keep up the good work ED's

Diaby is probably our best midfielder if fully fit, Sagna said himself that if Diaby was injury free, he would easily be Frances best player.

Jesus christ!
'diaby is probably our best midfielder when fit'
seen it all now

My aunt would be my uncle if she were a bloke! Diaby will never be fit so it is does not matter.

All you Diaby doubters, look what our manager said about him : You can't imagine how happy I am firstly to have him in the squad, because he is an exceptional player,� Wenger said. I am cautious but confident because he had two hard weeks and came through it well.

This tour is another decider for him. He will play on Tuesday night and now it is down to uncontrolled movement in games: how does your body react to that? I am confident with what I have seen in training that he will do it.

He is the first player who would be on the France teamsheet in midfield when he is fit. Laurant Blanc said that before the European Championship and he waited a very long time to know if he could play or not. But he couldn't.�

Hey Ed, I heard a few whispers about David Villa possibly joining Arsenal but they have now gone quiet.....any news from your end? {Ed002's Note - Nothing.}

Hope not to old, recent bad injury and never wanted play outside of Spain.
