plenty of stories out today saying we passed on m'villa. hopefully not true.

hasn't rosicky been hurt?

He's been back since Olympiacos. He was sick and missed a game or two, but he's been on the bench for most of the recent games.

Ugh...if we really did pass on M'VIla...

That signing would've given us a great reason to finally get rid of Wenger's favorite boy toy in Diaby.

I guess this window isn't all bad though, since we're beginning to finally get rid of garbage players while hanging onto good ones (assuming the rumors of Walcott signing a new contract are true). I'm probably just as excited about getting rid of "deadwood" players as I am about signing talented new ones.

Hey Diaby just played 65 minutes for the reserves and is still fully intact

We need to sign people soon, the windows getting boring

I'd rather get Strootman over M'Vila anyway, tbh. Although I'm sure he'd cost a lot more. We've been linked with James McCarthy as well, who I like.

Word is Younes Belhanda from Montpellier is available for around 10-12 Mil. Not our biggest priority position-wise, but we need creativity, and Belhanda is class. Good price too.

apparently , theo has finally signed da ting!!

Hopefully that is a sign of good things to come. I hope the guys like Wilshere, Szczesny, and Ox follow after him and remain with the club for the long-term.

MaliBrah · Post #1130 » by **MaliBrah** » Thu Jan 10, 2013 12:30 am

jack and the ox just recently signed long term , i dont know what woj's contract situation is but I dont see him leaving anytime soon

We need to continue to clear out the deadwood now and bring in some reinforcements and strengthen the squad this winter and in the summer , we're finally going to be improving on what we have(I hope) and not taking any steps backward this summer by selling off key players and that gets me excited but we have lots of work to do....

halfway through the month and nothing yet... I might lose all faith in wenger if he doesnt spend this january. I call BS on his no quality available excuses or hard to find quality excuses

Post #1132 » by **kdawg32086** » Tue Jan 15, 2013 6:59 pm

There's definitely quality out there, both in terms of very good established guys and talented youngsters. I'd be happy if Wenger went after players from either group, but I do like that they are prioritizing the removal of deadwood players. I might actually be ok with not bringing anyone new in, if he actually sells some of the deadwood, rather than just getting rid of them on loan deals.

Massimo · Post #1133 » by **Massimo** » Tue Jan 15, 2013 8:20 pm

What quality is there? Except Santi Cazorla and maybe Wilshere and Walcott, the team is lack of quality.

looool oh massimo .. we're talking about the players on the market ..now arsenal's squad. I hope we beat bayern and you guys beat schalke and we draw and smash them like we did your other team .. tottenham

Post #1135 » by **kdawg32086** » Tue Jan 15, 2013 9:06 pm

I'm not sure what Cazorla, Wilshere, or Walcott have to do with being available for us to buy on the transfer market, since we already have them under contract...and I don't think it's possible to bring someone in on a transfer if they're already on your team.

Massimo · Post #1136 » by **Massimo** » Tue Jan 15, 2013 10:10 pm

Lol english is my third language so my bad sorry bro

And against Arsenal. First, there is no way arsenal can even draw against bayern forget about winning. Second; Galatasaray probably beat Arsenal in both games easily.

But also Schalke is coming from your group as a leader, right? That's the team that raped your team in Emirates, no? So here we go. If we beat them, there is not much to say from your side

MaliBrah · Post #1137 » by **MaliBrah** » Fri Jan 18, 2013 5:43 pm

ahaha I guess we have to hope for a matchup
