Fabrizio Romano is reporting that it's a done deal and the only thing left is a medical. I don't know if it works like this but Chelsea could still scupper it at the last second to leave us with egg on our faces.

The BBC main page (not the round of daily media gossip section) are reporting it as happening and they don't usually report anything on the main page that isn't actually genuinely happening.

So unless the deal caplaplse for some reason it looks he's definitely on his way to becoming an Arsenal player today,

While its not a great signing, ultimately, the players we want are not available in January, and we do need cover, and so he is the next best that both fits our needs, and is available today, plus is not costing much, so overall, it will do. I just hope that by filling a squad position, it then doesn’t effect our ultimate midfield plans for the summer, or mean we push out ESR.

I really like the signing if it happens I'm happy to get him in.

Hi Stephen, after initially being dismissive of the rumour I am actually seeing things differently and I think Jorginho could be an excellent piece of business in over inflated January window where Wagoo beef prices are being asked for Aberdeen Angus cuts ???.

Hey everyone, first time poster and big fan of Ed 14.

I have to say, I think its excellent business. Look at what Arteta did before, he brought in experience to mix with youth and it worked a treat.

Jorginho is a seasoned winner with titles under his belt, he can bring that to the team alongside Zinchenko and Jesus.

Also, who is he covering. Partey. In the league, Jorginho is first for recoveries, interceptions, possession won, etc. its exactly what we need!

Someone who can bring experience, a sense of calm, and ability to absorb pressure, while the rest of the team smash out what they've been doing well all seasons. Makes total sense to me :D.

{Ed014's Note - don’t let Malaga and Sharpie hear you say that Mikey!?

Welcome aboard mate, good to have some new faces on here and I’m coming around to the idea of Jorginho!

Mikey, if I have any bit of advice for you it’s not to lend ed14 any money

G62 gave her a shilling in 1963 and he’s still waiting for it back.

{Ed014's Note - her!???

I think it’s a good move. He’s hardly ancient 31. Two years ago he was third in the balon dor. Offers something different to partey too which I like if we need to mix it up. ?.

Compared to our young guns he's absolutely Jurassic Cobbler mate ????.

pffft hardly a great signing. I mean, sure, if we can't get the players we want and need to buy cover, that's what we do. But Jorginho? Nah! I don't think this is going to work out.

But no worries, we got a league to try and win!

Hi Mark it was 1971 when I lent Ed014 that shilling, I remember it well. It was 1 minute to midnight the night before decimalisation kicked in and old money became useless ?.

{Ed014's Note - Valentine’s Day 1971. Were we on a date? ??

The less we remember about what happened that night the happier we will both be Ed014 mate, what happened on that fishing trip stays on that fishing trip ????.

Must have been some date if you can't remember.

A valentines date and he lent you a shilling? He sure does know how to treat the ladies.

{Ed014's Note - my thoughts exactly, I’d asked for a 10 bob note but he was having none of it!
