i am being told that aw is firming up a move for one leandro damiao for 25m! What do we think, Eds? {Ed027's Note - i think you are not being told
I think the Eds responses to the ridiculous rumours are the funniest things.

My mate's dad is one of the ground staff for AFC and i'm not meant to reveal any of this but Arsenal will sign Moussa Dembele from Fulham before Friday but he won't actually be announced until Friday. Aaron Ramsey will be going to Fulham in return on loan for the season plus an initial £12 Million in cash. The fee could (and probably will) go up to £16 Million depending on how many appearances M. Dembele makes for Arsenal.
He has a release clause of £12 million you person
To poster above ^
I highly doubt thats true, as someone with of definitely put a £12m bid in by now.
My god he's well informed for a groundsman,sits in on negotiations as well i expect. Nice one!
Willesden Gooner
How do all these groundstaff know so much? Do they carry out board meetings on the pitch now?
Not sure Dembele is our answer, but he's quality. Rambo could really benefit from the loan--when he plays well for Wales I think it's because he's not the smallest fish in the pond and doesn't have high expectations from his teammates to deal with.
still hope we're after a quick footed striker though
So the managing staff is also the grounds keeping crew? I do admire AW and his staff's dedication to Arsenal. Not that thor dedication was ever in doubt, but even managing the grounds! That is incredible.
Dude, read Arsene's interviews on arsenal.com before posting BS. He said he wants to build up the new Arsenal around a british core consisting of Ramsey, Walcott, Wilshere and The Ox. So he won't loan out Ramsey. And I am glad about that!
theghostinside
What's with slating ground staff? They're just as likely as anyone to have friends inside arsenal.
'My mates dad...' ... Please!

Agreed!

Arsenal had representatives in Swansea over weekend regarding potential Angel Rangel move
Great. Another sub standard player
27 Aug 2012 22:28:04
arsenal made an enquiry for lisandro lisandro lopez! you heard it here first
He's that good they named him twice...
Can't see it really want mvilla and dempsey dempsy would give us a extra dimension as in graft b******* and goals Slips78
Can't see it really want mvilla and dempsey dempsy would give us a extra dimension as in graft b******* and goals Slips78
Would be an excellent signing, maybe a bit out of our price range though as I can see Lyon wanting back the £19.000.000 or so they paid for him back at least
No, I heard it a few days ago on here, but it's not true.

I have some contacts close to Stan Kroenke that tells me he has ben convinced by AW to throw some money into a Kaka deal, 7M£ Kaka move expected to be announced within 48 hours.
USA Gooner
Are you US Gooner's cousin or another imposter.
Stan Kroenke has probably never heard of Kaka.................or Wenger....................or Arsenal!
Contacts to silent Stan? Please share so that we can collectively throw eggs at his mansion.
Pretty sure that deal won't happen since spuds have a new partnership with Madrid now as part of the modric deal, if kaka is coming to north London doubt it wil be to us.
Scooby gooner
27 Aug 2012 22:57:29
I athletic bilbao life long support. arsenal are in the town for a player of our team. you are OK to have Llorente. They are at lintarjo hotel tonight.
The USA Gunner name makes it obvious that this is BS
I didn't post this, we are different posters
US Gooner
Brilliant. Madrid paid £68mill for kaka but willing to let go for £7mill??
Why dont we bid £8mill for ronaldo, £3.3mill for aguero and maybe nick iniesta in a 500,000k move.
Jog on loser! Worse rumour wver
£7m for kaka, you must be a nut job. No way would real sell kaka for 7million.
Scottish Gooner!
27 Aug 2012 21:20:03
i work in the arsenal head office and there was word going around today that we are very interested in signing kaka on loan. The main obstacle are kaka`s wages which are well above afc limit and if a deal can be agreed on wages then he will sign this week.
JB
For christ sake stop posting stupid rumours
The Arsenal head office was closed today.
Only another hour or so and the kids should be in bed, then we can get our site back.
Head office was closed but the cleaners were in! Whatever way, it should be the past tense if true ' you did work at head office' because if true you just lost your job
Working on a Bank Hol and ur being fed BS! ur job sucks...
T
Sure that arsenal would have been open this close to the end of window people will be working on incoming and outgoing deals until deadline day then they will have there day off
DA
Head office! lol
drumsofdotl
What are you doing posting rumours when you should be working harder at the head office..... Get back to work man
27 Aug 2012 21:19:56
Law is in Germany for 2 players from schalke one is some young player called draxler the other I have heard is a defender so not holtby
Pat rice
Benedikt Hoewdes or Astuto Uchida
NAILED IT!
i can't see us being after a schalke defender tbh.
D
Yeah so you're not Pat Rice
Glad to see you still working Pat
Draxler is only 18 and pure class. Defensive midfelder.
Chocolate
Draxler is a CAM -_-

Might b papadopolos from schalke

Brief update
Arsenal trying to secure a loan deal for Milan's El-Sharaawy as part of any possible Bendtner/Denilson deal. Option to buy as well.
AFC-Noel
Expect Frank to post a similar story soon.
Isn't Denilson still on loan in Brazil until the end of their season?
I have to say afc-noel your not very good at doing the rumour thing!!
would you like me to give you some tips on how to attract a crowd of responses???
malaga gooner
I wonder what percentage of rumours on here are from actual gooners. Small I bet.
Arsegoon
27 Aug 2012 22:58:23
yes Malaga gooner. few have your accuracy where predictions are concerned do they!
28 Aug 2012 18:51:10
Malaga gooner
i have seen your posts. either they're satirical or the incoherent musings.
denilson has a clause in his loan deal where afc have the opportunity to terminate it if they see fit. this is not 'itk' info, hate that term, but common knowledge.
i merely post the info from one contact. he is not an agent or a part of a network of people i have under my employ. you pour ridiculous bile here yet you have the audacity to undermine what i say.
how can one be good at rumour thing. i hear it i post it. would i like you to help me? how is that possible? would infer that you make up your rumours and can help me do what, lie?
i'm aware schweinsteiger sounds highly unlikely but i've been told differently and will gladly put my neck on the line. i'm just a regular joe with someone who has a clue for a friend.
afc-noel
29 Aug 2012 03:48:29
could be truth to this
27 Aug 2012 19:24:10
Dembele nailed on to join us but there is apparently a sticking point over the reluctance of one of the THREE players who are going the other way. This is solid info from a man close to FULHAM
Booner Gooner
I hope so!
Who the 3?
Bendtner/Park (sale)
Chamakh (sale/loan)
Ramsey (loan)
???????????
Please be true!
Hope it's true!
How close to fulham? is he in hammersmith??
27 Aug 2012 19:15:35
According to SPORTS TREND Arsenal are willing to pay 15 mil for m'vila
I dont bekive sports trend they been saying for weeks that M'Vila deal is dne he a arsenal player and say all the time its going to be anounced etc etc
Spurs have submitted a bid for him so hes liekly to go der unless we bid too
A website said spurs haven't made a bid, but bbc say have.
27 Aug 2012 19:10:17
Rumours please edd:) No source but an educated guess on the limited information we have .
Arsenal to sign 2 Bundesliga players within the week.
Lukasz Piszczek and Marco Reus.
Eire Goon. Thoughts appreciated please edd :) {Ed027's Note - Reus will not join, as he has only recently moved to BVB
That wasn't an educated guess...
Marco Reus joined BVB to replace Kagawa this summer.
Lukasz Piszczek is really good would welcome him at arsenal, but reus wont come xD
Its should be shame to come up with these stupid rumours. i cant understand how people do it..
Reus just joined Dortmund this summer and Piszczek is slated to be the starting left mid for Dortmund.
Dortmund have already said that they won't be selling any more of their players this summer.
Marco reus LOL
27 Aug 2012 18:08:19
Michael Owen to be confirmed as an Arsenal player tomorrow on a 2 year contract. {Ed027's Note - that would be funny
Would be a very good replacement for van persie and would get us bags of goals.
Please name urself so we can laugh tomoro. More likely is bglia
Goo.er Josh
Just as he's managed at Old Traffoed the last 3 seasons.
You mancs not got anything better to do.
Not a cat in hells chance
brentwood gooner
Haha you joker. theirs more chance of shearer coming out of retirement and signing a 5 year contract with us
What good what that do?
Not likely, seeing as Wenger only signs players up on one year contracts once they pass 30yrs old! Also why would we chance a two year deal when he is being priced out of all pay as you play deals. The only common factor between Owen and van Persie is the time they have spent on the injury table!
Ed027: No it would not be funny. {Ed027's Note - ohh yes it would, after all the abuse i gave to utd fans over him
No chance AW would give a 2 year contract.
Sounds likely so we dont have to pay anything and he wont do much !!
As everyone knows the clubs policy is to give one year contracts to players above the age of 30. Been in place for years.
Haha that made me laugh!!
Brighton gooner lol!
27 Aug 2012 17:50:19
my scource has informed me that we have agreed a deal with valencia for victor ruiz. 8m and miquel on loan.
Where does he play us he fast
23 year old cb. dont know much else about him
27 Aug 2012 16:40:14
kevin gamiero is very close to being an arsenal player..he will be a good signing
Is he fast we need a fast striker
Would be a fantastic signing.
Clg
Almost an ever-present for PSG last season. With their money, why would they sell him?
Wanted him before he went to psg, knows kos well so would settle fast
The weird thing is giroud scored more goals last season so statistically he should be the better player and start over this guy yet were supposedly targeting this guy to play as out first choice striker ahead of giroud
Greg
I would like this to be true, he wouldn't be too expensive and he probably thinks he won't get much game time with Lavezzi and Ibra, certainly another option up front would help, although I do have faith in Podolski and Giroud hitting form
Any one else getting fed up with all these rumours based on no substance what so ever!? We just seem to talk about it while all the others go out and buy!
I would say that Gamiero is a far better all round player than Giroud and definitely a more similar type of player to R.V.P so would be an excellent signing if true.
27 Aug 2012 16:34:37
In regards to M'Villa. Tottenham are the ONLY club to have tabled an actual bid for him 12.75m with add ons making the deal worth 15m. Rennes want 15m in hard cash.
Tottenham haven't tabled any bid according to a website
Dude, Rennes already told the media that there are three clubs in for M'villa!
They have according to beeb. They now have loads of cash after that modric deal.
Ash
I will be gutted if he goes to them!
They have loads of cash if they got loads of cash up front - like Barca, Madrid will probably pay a nominal fee up front and the rest will be monthly installments.
LD
Woolwich Gooner: Is there a difference between hard cash and soft cash?
27 Aug 2012 15:55:10
I'm not claiming that the following is true, but this is a rumours site after all, so I'm just repeating verbatim what I've heard. I'm also aware that 99% of what's posted on here is unsubstantiated nonsense from deluded fantasists, attention-seekers and unemployable loners and nutters with too much time on their hands, so I'm not claiming it's gospel or that I'm "close to someone very high up in Arsenal who I can't name for obvious reasons" etc etc....
The rumour is this: Tiote's "calf injury" is much like the "mystery calf strains" that Ryan Giggs used to get right before Wales matches and from which he enjoyed Lazarus-like recoveries just in time for Manchester United's next game. Anyway Tiote is effectively an Arsenal player (provided the medical went OK and there are no major SNAFUs over the contract detail. This is AFC after all.) To be announced Wednesday apparently.
I have to say I have my doubts as I suspect Pardew wouldn't sell us a virus if he could help it and I can't see us meeting whatever exorbitant asking price he would demand even if the player were for sale. However, that's the rumour as I heard it.
The Exile
Now we know why your Exiled.
Welcome back we've missed you on the fantasist, loner nutter club
Wenger said that Tiotes a good player but not on his way to Arsenal.
Wenger also said last year that arteta is a no-go, but now he is our player. Don't believe in everything.
Not saying I don't believe you, I'm sure what you heard is what you heard, but I don't see this deal happening- mainly, as you mentioned, the fee they would ask for would see arsenal running- fast.
Unless perhaps there is a player in part xchange. Either way, Fridat is not far off... so we will see who was speaking bs the most all summer.
Wenger is a compulsive liar when it comes to transfer talk out of respect for the clubs we deal with. Unlike others like Barca who avoid tapping up players by getting their stars to do it for them in pubic. However I still do not see Tiote signing, maybe Cabaye though
Chess
I was at Newcastle's pre-season game at Cardiff and saw Tiote get injured. So no mystery there.
Tiote has played since that pre-season game so this is a fresh "injury".
drumsofdotl
Barca get their players to tap up other players "in pubic"?! The images that conjures up...
27 Aug 2012 15:54:26
we have made an enquiry for miguel torres from getafe and are looking to bid for Eliaquim Mangala of fc porto. torres is a right back but can also play left back and mangala is a talented young french cb who also holds belgian nationality and is struggling for game time
Now this sound's more realistic, cheap imports that can later at a profit.
27 Aug 2012 15:11:42
newcastle fan here, strong rumors going around here that arsenal will sign cabaye for 20m, newcastle have made contact to sign m'villa and van der wiel out of the 20m. fact....
No chance will we be paying 20m for cabaye maybe 15 mill at absolute most
Not worth 20million at all. FACT
DJA
Why would Wenger pay £20m for a player who cost £4.8m a year ago? Newcastle found their mugs last year with Liverpool, I don't see Arsebal following suit at that price.
Arsenal will not sign cabaye. If anything it would be tiote, we need a DM.
20 mil for cabaye?! He`s worth at most 2 mil. No way near good enough and no more french players to the Gunners please.
He is just a second rate flaming, way over the top talk of £20m.
Dream on, AW wouldn't pay that money
Av 1st bid of 15m so how he not worth 2m, we'l see at the end of the wk.
Cabaye is a superb player easily worth 20m in todays market, he was easily one of the best cm last in the league last season.
Gooner Luke
I agree with gunner luke he is a quality player whether we buy him or not, most newcastle fans would far rather see tiote go than him. Does any of you actually watch football or does CM12 and making stuff up take up the majority of your time??
27 Aug 2012 14:19:01
jovetic is on his way to arsenal for 15 million pounds with chamakh and bendtner going the other way, absolutely no truth that we are going for schweinsteiger, yanga-mbiwa is also on the way to arsenal for 6.5 million pounds,arsenal also to make a 3 million pound bid for luke shaw, also a 25 million pound double swoop for ben arfa and cabaye is being lined up, and players leaving aswell are arshavin, squillaci, denilson, park and walcott(who will be a big miss in my opinion) so it will be a very busy week for arsenal.
I can see cabaye OR Ben Arfa coming, never both! and Walcott will stay i think.
Can't see 5 coming in, any 3 of those wld be nice though
If you say so
I'd b over the moon if ben arfa joined. Think he is brilliant. Duno about cabaye
Ben arfa wont come because him and diaby dont get along. cabaye would be brilliant
Until I see players mentioned holding the shirt I don't believe a word of rumours. Some of the posts on here, a so far fetched it's unbelievable. Like the marquee signing being Kaka for 8m.
U aint getting luke shaw he staying at southampton and you would only put him in your reserves or bench like u did with ox for most of last season
You playing football manager again?
27 Aug 2012 13:46:36
Theo Walcott has signed a deal to stay and his insisting he can play upfront. New deal has performance based wage increases, if he does well he will get paid well
Rog da Dodge
I hope this is true!:D
How do u know this? not on arsenal.com
Hope true will make good striker
Reckon he'd be better and happier as a striker. Chi gooner
And if he plays crap as he seems to do 60% of the time, do Arsenal get money back?
Walcott is never a striker, and seriously needs to make a big step up and prove himself
Dont no who told you there he is coming to liverpool fc
27 Aug 2012 13:57:24
Kaka going spuds, so m'villa or coupue by Wednesday
Rog da Dodge
What mvilla and capoue going to spurs?
Mvila going spuds 12.5 mill and been invited for discussions
Given a choice, there are far fewer off-field issues with Capoue than M'Villa.
27 Aug 2012 13:16:01
Dembele to arsenal just about personal terms he is a good player and can play up top or in midfield
Ah I didn't think this would take long. Fellaini plays well against United so we're linked to him, Dembele does the same and...here we are.
Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see him at Arsenal, along with a few of his international team mates, but this just wont happen.
Paul (hoping I'm wrong)
BS! we have enough offensive midfielders. why should we get one more who can play up top? if a midfielder then one which is defensively orientated and not the opposite
27 Aug 2012 13:10:57
15 mil + Bendtner for Jovetic
15 mil + Bendtner + Chamakh for Jovetic eve better:)
Fiorentina would probably just prefer the £15 million
27 Aug 2012 12:19:59
In
Affelay-loan
Capoue-8mil
Jovetic-15mil
Out
Bendtner
Chamakh
Park
Squilaci
Arshavin
Lansbury
Jovetic for 15mil? You had me till that...also, way too many players going out. We have had issues trying to get them out since the start of the transfer window.....
Jovetic will not be in our price range. If he becomes avaliable it will be juventus or city who will bid 20m+. I also doubt we would loan affelay. I think wenger is tired of developing talents for other clubs which is why we also didn't go for sahin because we couldn't buy him outright.
27 Aug 2012 10:30:27
trust me on this guys. arsenal will sign m'vila and dembele. no strikers will be coming in, and theo isnt leaving in this transfer window. obviously you dont have to believe me but im telling tpu its true
Friday will tell
DN~
Why should we trust you?
Walcott wl stay and m'villa might join us, but no way we get a medicore player like dembele.... {Ed027's Note - dembele medicore, shows what you know
These are the two players I'm praying on coming in.......only addition I believe would make our squad awesome is Mbiwa and I'm a happy gooner!! J x
Dembele is better than most midfielders we've already got
Everyone on a rumour site is going to say trust me... There is no actual reason to.
Spurs odds on to sign mvila now guess wenger doesn't think he's the player we need
DD
For me i think Wenger should be looking at Dembele and Ince
DD Knows his Arsenal from his elbow - M'vila is heading to Tottering where they will pay way over the odds for a reasonable DMF with discipline problems. Chriss
Please let us know if tpu believed you. I always value tpu's opinion. Knows his onions does tpu !
Trust you? Who are you for a starter?
Paul - Rochester
30 "believables"! whats the world coming tpu? Why would we sign two central mids to go with Arteta, Jack, Diaby, Cazorla, Rosicky, Ramsey, Coquelin, Frimpong, Lansbury, Eisfeld, and possibly the Ox? One maybe, but two? you're off your rocker mate. Not gonna happen.
drumsofdotl
27 Aug 2012 01:55:14
From what i heard in germany, Robben is looking at one more chance at the premier league, and arsenal are intrested...Bayern are willing to let him go for around 16.5 euros, and allow new signing Shaqiri to become his replacement.
Croatian Newspapers are stating, Arsenal are intrested in taking in Eduardo for a 1 year loan, i feel this would be perfect for us...someone who has epl experience and help giroud and podolski settle in
Marko
Robben. Too injury prone for me.
Oh God I hope not.
Cant see that happening ,not the kind of player we buy ..WE ONLY SELL PLAYERS LIKE THAT
Marko, I know it's been frustrating at Chelsea, but no need to make rumours now. Just bash the manager like Lukaku and leave it at that.
Hope not always been greedy player
Really dont know wher u get these from. i expect dembele tbh
Not Robben pls. He's so bad he's the main reason BM lost against Chelsea in the champions league final... if it happens I will start following bowls instead
Lol Marko Marin why are you here?
Go warm up that bench!
27 Aug 2012 00:43:12
just off the phone. low is trying to bring Miso Brecko from cologne. he was podolski's former team mate and he is versatile defender aw is looking for. and aw is also interested in Milivoje Novakovic who was former cologne player and is currently out on loan :):) people please relax and stop making fake stories. only aw knows what he is going to buy so stop guessing!
So you was just off the phone too AW then?, and not making up fake stories.
Arsegoon
You do know this is a site for rumours right? Until it comes up in Arsenal.com, everything is made up.
You claim to know something, yet keep calling him low.
It's Richard law.
person.
D
He's just being sarcastic...
He's our chief negotiator we won't send him over for a deal with a second division club any emirates cleaner could negotiate that, that's if law is actually over there until players are in arsenal shirts playing games nothing is true, (for example)for all we know we Could be really close to signing Messi and not get him it's the same difference we havent got him. Close and in talks are nothing until signed
DD
Novakovic is 33 so no chance aw would look at him so a suggest whoever you were on the phone to is talking utter bs
So we're bassment bargain hunting in Germany for player who are't in the plans or a relegated team....
Who the hell is low?
