The way I understand our potential signings:

Vucinic 6 month loan is agreed and ready to be done IF Juve sign Osvaldo from Southampton

Draxler will happen in the summer OR he could be allowed to leave now IF they get in a replacement, they're trying to get Holtby on loan but Spurs (having learnt from handing us Ozil) would prefer to let him go to Fulham.

It'll certainly be an interesting final 2 days!

This is probably posted but looks like we've signed vucinic from Juventus probably on loan. I think to cover Draxlers transition to CF, as it looks like he's coming too according to tv discussions ongoing

Ed002 is there any truth in the £25mil bid Arsenal made for Draxler recently? I still know what was said (that he the one for th summer), just wanna know if things might have change since thn. Thanxxxx in adcance.

{Ed002's Note - I will stick with what I have said before. He is out injured right now but Arsenal may want to try and agree a caveated deal for the summer now.}

Hearing that we will sign Draxler before the deadline for £33m BUT he will be loaned back to Schalke until the end of the season. Not the best deal if true.

Eds any truth to these rumours?

{Ed027's Note - we have been in dialogue with Schalke for a while it seems, if we were to pull it off, I highly doubt we would loan him back

Dout we would loan him out

Agree1 Disagree1

I bet that's the issue with the deal at the moment. They want the loan back an arsenal don't.

Unfortunately I can't remember what ed it was. Maybe 001. But you believed we would sign draxler in the summer. With the new rumours coming from sites are you sticking with this? Love the site btw. Great job!

{Ed001's Note - I don't remember saying that, I did say I thought it was much more likely to be a summer move. I still think that, but summer is a long way off and a bad injury or other interest could change it. On current information, summer would seem likely.}

Maybe I misquoted you. Il keep my fingers crossed for a move now. Thank you for the reply!

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - no worries.}

Dont mean to be argumentative but with due respect I think this deal is done and will be announced before window ends for this.window not the summer

Agree2 Disagree1

No smoke without fire, I get the feeling Mr Wenger has been keeping a few cards very close to his savile row single breasted lapels

Apparently we have a delegation in Germany to negotiate signing Draxler this window. Promising.

Ed, do you know if these negotiations may involve Podolski going in the opposite direction?

Agree1 Disagree1

{Ed001's Note - as far as I am aware, there is no player involved in talks going the other way.}

We need to sign at least 3 experienced players to bolster our squad in an attempt to stay in touch during the rest of the season. Our squad is just so fragile and the constant number of injuries is beyond belief - hopefully a new fitness guru will bring a change in training methods - and we have so many players who suffer what appear to be minor injuries who do not return for many weeks?. Arsene has done a magnificent job this season so far and it would be a shame if it all fell apart. It was clear from last night that our midfield, shorne of Jack and Rambo is lightweight and now with Flamini out for 4 matches too, we will just get over run by the top teams.

Agree1 Disagree1

Sign an injured player, seems like a wenger move
