If true I think Steven Gerrard just went up a notch in my estimation.

Doubt that's true. And anyways, short memories. How close was Gerrard to leaving Chelsea? Shouldn't have even crossed his mind to leave if he was committed to the club enough. And RVP wasn't going to win a title with Arsenal so he left, simples.

Or Jackson Martinez.

Yilmaz is off to Lazio I believe. And Martinez signed a new deal.

It wouldn't be my first choice buy but a Striker and LW would be.

I dunno. Maybe another one, but not that top.
Still happy if we get Ozil. Although we have players in that area he is a good addition and I think other players (say, Walcott) will probably benefit from his passing ability.

Another Arsenal deal that looks likely on Monday is for Palermo goalkeeper Emiliano Viviano. Reportedly already in England for talks.

Cadena Ser: Madrid and Arsenal have reached a deal for Ozil, 45+5m euros pending agreement with the player who is desperate to leave

Haven't been online in about a week...is this talk of Ozil actually true or just rumours? He would be a mind blowing acquisition. Also I saw a story about Draxler from Schalke for £40m...any substance to this?

It seems we are close to Ozil.
The Draxler saga was going around for the last couple of days. I'd say if we are signing Ozil, it won't go anywhere.

Impression I've gotten is that if you replace the word Draxler with the word Ozil you'll be up to speed.

they came back after the villa game about the same time as cabaye, when it looked as all the 'big name' signings weren't going to happen, now it's back to the big names

I heard that the deal with Yilmaz to Lazio broke down because of them wanting to pay in installments. Could be wrong.

Anyone know anything about Abel Hernández? Being linked by the Telegraph who reckon he is the main target for CF with Ba as back up option from what I can gather.

MOTD now watch the game once more

He's been wrong plenty before.....

It was plain as day from Wengers post-match interview that he was buzzing with a "big surprise" planned.

Ozil though. I mean come on. Clearly a panic buy. :pac: :pac:

Anyone else like the way Giroud bent his leg?

Those draws were Everton and United too IIRC. Amazing form bar the Villa game.

.jacksparrow.

Just sitting here coming back down to earth, will Wenger actually spend the rumoured 42 million on one player, it just isn't him, is he gonna change so drastically at this stage of his life.

I certainly hope so.

The speed of Walcott's runs from deep are scary

A fact I always found interesting. in 2005 Theo came second in the BBC young sports personality of the year award, losing out to Sprinter Aikines-Aryeetey. The funny thing is Theo's 100M record was less than half a second less than Aikines-Aryeeteys.

It sounds it but why should we be surprised we are a big club that just don't spend :pac:

Now buy a Top Striker and LW and we be flying.

bad2dabone

He's a nightmare to play against with that speed I'd imagine. I actually felt sorry for that fener full back recently.
Sometimes frustrating but he's a real weapon to have.

I hear we have a keeper signed too from Italy.

I think it's a loan or free signing, I could be wrong but I doubt he cost much.

Inagine having cazorla and ozil on the same team two massive footballing brains. What ozil has achieved and hes only 24 is unreal feels like hes been around for years.

Exciting stuff. Its a sign that Wenger is building something really special again and that he will only sign real quality.

Rumours that Capoue has a double fracture of the tibia, awful injury. If true I hope he recovers well. :-(

Poor lad but no fault of Carzola just a freak injury.
