Footballers are rarely known for their complex pranks, and the latest attempt which has surfaced from Arsenal's dressing room seems to seamlessly fit the level of wit among the Premier League elite.

Jack Wilshere may not be the direct culprit, but the midfielder took to Twitter to exhibit the latest example of dressing room 'banter' at the expense of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

Complete with a set of glasses and a goatee, the winger was undoubtedly humiliated by his new look and perhaps not even a string of influential performances to guide Arsenal into a Champions League spot will redeem his credibility among is team-mates.

It's all a bit cruel, really, given the fact Oxlade-Chamberlain has enjoyed a positive debut season at the Emirates following his arrival from Southampton.

Who knows what the Arsenal players have planned for Theo Walcott...


We seem a bit shit at pranks

That looks suspiciously like a photoshop job. Looks like somebody has cut Wilshere's head and stuck it on Diaby's body. This isn't proof Jack is alive.

What a load of shit!

Make the blue bands red and the neck piece white and it will be ok.

[Thierrymon]

That is fucking horrendous. It looks like a Man united reject strip.

[Xhaka Can’t]

There really should not be blue on the home kit - not now - not ever.

The general consensus from gooners around the net is: it's shit and they aren't buying it.

This isn't going to bode well for shirt sale revenue next season.

Used to be blue in kits from the early 90's. Don't like it really....really liked this years strip and the badge. Hate this badge.

[Champagne Charlie]

Looks rubbish.

It appears that in a desperate attempt to convince Van Persie to stay we've gone and stuck a Dutch flag on the sleeves!!

[Dennis Bendtner]

Wonder what the players think of it.
















http://farm8.static.flickr.com/7101/7005612230_df777b8ec5.jpg

I'm not sure it's that bad, it's just the additions are typically pointless.

[Marc Overmars]

I don't even see it as a grower tbh, the trim just makes it look tacky and like a knock-off you'd find on holiday in Spain.

This seasons kit was awesome and it's the only one I've bought since 04/05, probably be another 7 years before the next one I buy if this design is anything to go by tbh.

That's a holocaust. Looks like a Man Utd kit. Hope we get Howard Webb a bit more next season.

But who gives a shit, really. We're not going out there for a fashion parade, we're going out there to pass the ball a bit. And then pass it some more. And then watch it get intercepted and concede a goal on the counter via a deflection which bobbles into the net.

i really don't know what to think of the kit.
haven't been eager to get one since the maroon away kit, which was mint.

Walcott claims Arsenal’s shirts for next season are a nod to the Britishness of the club.The Gunners, owned by an American, with a French manager, had two UK players in the starting line-up against Norwich.

Walcott, sidelined by injury, unveiled the new strip and said: “I think the blue in particular in the kit reflects a British feel for the club in a massive year for the home nations with the Olympics this summer.

“There’s a lot of historical features, with the hooped socks and blue that’s been in our kits for decades.”


From the mirror.

[Niall_Quinn]

Not sure what Theo is on about - the kit is shit and he must know it. Maybe just putting a brave face on it. Is that piece of shit thing that looks like a sign for the underground our new badge? That's just fucking horrible.

The mirror says that bould will become Arsenes no.2 and Reserve coach Neil banfield will also join the 1st team staff when rice retires at the end of the season.

Good news tbh.

[Cripps_orig]

A cheap option if true

Typical of us :lol:

[Cripps_orig]

Adams was cheaper and even more a legend yet people including yourself think he'll be shit so that logic for Bould doesnt wash

[Niall_Quinn]

A cheap option if true

Typical of us :lol:

That Italian bloke who managed England and the Swedish bloke who banged that weather girl, they are expensive options but not so great it seems. Bould was cheap when he played for us too, but still a a legend.

[Marc Overmars]

That top is a bit similar in terms of colour to the home one to be an away kit? Unless it's the 3rd kit.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Adams was cheaper and even more a legend yet people including yourself think he'll be shit so that logic for Bould doesnt wash

Bold knows the club inside out and knows how it runs. Everyone has been calling for bould for a few years now, i don't no many who want adams.

[Cripps_orig]

Bold knows the club inside out and knows how it runs. Everyone has been calling for bould for a few years now, i don't no many who want adams.Exactly.

With Bould, it'll be more of the same old shit.

We need someone new, coming from the outside. Someone who isnt infected by Wengers senile ways. Ideally we'd just get a new number one but as long as Wenger keeps making the money for himself and the board then hes staying regardless of how awful we are in the league.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Exactly.

Not really Bould is his own man and knows what it means to wear the shirt and will drum this into the lads what they need. no way is Bould a yes man.

Getting someone from outside is not guarenteed to change anything it would only be someone Wenger wants anyway so whats the diffrence.

Bould is no way the same as rice and no way has the same ideas. we need freshness and with Bould thats what we'll get.

[Cripps_orig]

I hope you are right.

[Niall_Quinn]

Adams was cheaper and even more a legend yet people including yourself think he'll be shit so that logic for Bould doesnt wash

I didn't say Adams would be shit, he'd do for me too. No problems with Adams at all. People say he failed in his last position but picking up experience is not a failure. We need a bit of passion at this club to drown out the continuous din of cash registers coming from upstairs. Adams and Bould can do that no problem. Even if they are total shite tactically, they couldn't make it any worse than it is now. But if they brought any of that fighting spirits then we'd be better off.

[Niall_Quinn]

Exactly.

With Bould, it'll be more of the same old shit.

We need someone new, coming from the outside. Someone who isnt infected by Wengers senile ways. Ideally we'd just get a new number one but as long as Wenger keeps making the money for himself and the board then hes staying regardless of how awful we are in the league.

Wenger is on a salary, a salary he could easily get anywhere else. He makes the money either way, the big pay day goes off upstairs.

[Marc Overmars]

Exactly.

We need someone new, coming from the outside. Someone who isnt infected by Wengers senile ways. Ideally we'd just get a new number one but as long as Wenger keeps making the money for himself and the board then hes staying regardless of how awful we are in the league.

But Adams is infected by Wengers senile ways. This isn't the chest pumping heart on his sleeve player we're talking about anymore.

[Japan Shaking All Over]

Don't know something doesn't sit right when I think of Adams as manager.....loved him as a captain but.....not sure that he would last....may be a bit fragile (just a thought)

I am not saying that we have to bring in the biggest fish ie Pep or Jose but Bould would be a great #2 for whoever does come in.....especially if that person is Johnny Foreigner.....people are right when they say he has the advantage of knowing the place inside out....it is exactly what a new guy will need

And other than that there's not much going on. Further confirmation of Pat Rice's departure emerged yesterday as a number of players Tweeted messages and a picture of them at a training ground barbecue yesterday (I bet it didn't rain there). You can see the high regard in which they hold Pat, not only is Bacary Sagna there with his broken leg in a protective boot, you can see from the picture above that they made a nice drawing for him which they coloured in all by themselves (only Frimpong spoiled it a bit by going outside the lines).

I dont even remember how the goal was scored

Links?
The Arsenal link has a video of all the goals including 'Henry's. I remember it, he kinda mis-hit it and it came off the defender and went in. I've no idea if it was on target before it hit the defender but I don't think it would have gone in otherwise.

[Dennis Bendtner]

I assumed they normally give the attacker the goal if it was originally on target, going by most examples. This seems quite random. Did they take away Saha or Holt's goals against us? Meh.

David Dein is in the SSN studio at 10:30 this morning.

:unsure:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Dein said Wenger doesn't like losing.
He praises Wenger's achievement of getting us to third given where we were at the start of the season.
He also mentions the injury situation.
Dein thinks RVP will at least be at Arsenal for the remainder of his contract.
Dein says it's unfair to say Wenger doesn't like buying; he is a value buyer and a teacher.
"He wants to win more than anything. He's still got as much fire in his belly as I can remember when he came in 1996".
Dein makes a reference to being a victim of his own success - the 49 games specifically.
He says FFP is an admirable idea but the key will be how it is actually implemented.
Just talked about the rise and rise of the Premier League; doesn't think the bubble will burst any time soon.
Says it will be very difficult for any club to emulate our 03/04 season (in the Premier League that is).
He thinks Woy will do well managing England.
It is time that goal-line technology was used.

[Syn]

Just saw the Dein interview. As Maccy says, he was very full of praise of Wenger. I agree with him when he says Arsenal should run down Van Persie's contract if necessary but obviously try to convince him to stay; 'grass is not always greener' etc. Also interesting to hear him say that he knows Wenger is more unhappy at being 19 points behind the Manchester clubs rather than happy with finishing 3rd. Wonder if the 'Dein knows all' lot will take note of that. Probably not.

1. Attacks Chelsea's style of play - Check.
2. Uses "interesting" for no reason - Check.
3. Uses "little bit" and "potential" in the same sentence - Check.
4. Makes up arbitrary percentages that he plucks out of thin air - Check.
5. "And don't forget" - Check.

It has to be. Unfortunately he probably has someone proof-reading it that pulls out the "as well you know".


Chelsea will continue to sit in their half of the pitch, using set pieces and counter-attacks to threaten, while Bayern will stay faithful to their traditional style of play of taking the ball and trying to make the difference.
What are the psychological scars after their respective lost finals? This will be interesting. I think Bayern have a little bit more creative potential but Chelsea have the experience and a 'killer' side in great matches that can really hurt.
It's practically impossible to say who will be favourite in that respect. I would say 55 per cent for Bayern and 45 per cent for Chelsea. Just a small advantage for Bayern...
Yes, Chelsea will be without Terry, Ivanovic, and Ramires, but they have good players available on the bench: players like Essien, Malouda, Kalou, Sturridge, and Torres. And don't forget that even with Terry sent off against Barcelona, playing with 10 men and with Bosingwa as a centre-back, they did a great job.

Nobody knew just why South Korean international Park Chu-Young never got a chance to prove himself for Arsenal this season.

Given the way he'd been brought in—under rather untoward circumstances—you'd have thought Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger had it in mind to play him. A lot.

Arsenal had sealed a transfer for the 26-year-old AS Monaco forward under the very nose of Lille chairman Michel Seydoux last August. The story went that Park, who had played for Monaco since 2008, had arrived in Lille to undergo a medical with the presumption he was on the verge of joining the 2010-11 double winners.

Then he failed to show up for the second part of his medical. Lille team representatives checked in his hotel room, only to find it abandoned. Park had taken off for London; Arsenal had upped Lille's offer. The deal with Lille was off, and Arsenal had their man.

"We haven’t had a telephone call, nothing," said Seydoux back then. "From what we understand [Park] could be at Arsenal."

It was one of the more curious storylines of what turned into an unforgettable flurry of transfers for Arsenal.

Park's £2.7 million transfer (with a £1.8 million additional payment if Park was excused from military service—mandatory in South Korea for two years—and it appeared that Park succeeded in delaying his term for the time being, meaning that Arsenal likely had to pay Monaco that extra sum) was lost in the kerfuffle of deals for the likes of Mikel Arteta, Andre Santos and Per Mertesacker, not to mention a loan move for Yossi Benayoun.

But at 26, with a stellar track record for South Korea (he made his debut for the national team as a teenager) and Monaco, Park still looked like a bargain.

53039519_crop_340x234 A star for Korea since his teenage years.
Ben Radford/Getty Images

Here was a player known for his mobility and technical prowess, who could provide cover at the forward position in the event that Robin van Persie succumbed to injury.

But oh, how we were wrong. Park made just one league appearance for Arsenal this past season, and despite scoring a superb goal in the FA Cup against Bolton in October (cue 2:40 for his Thierry Henry-esque strike), never earned the confidence of Wenger. His lack of first-team opportunities was testament enough to that.

Park made appearances for the reserves, but for the most part made his greatest imprint as one of the great enigmas of this Arsenal season. We heard snippets about Park, but rarely saw him. It was bizarre, to say the least.

Thus it surprised no one when Park said he would seek a transfer away from the club this summer if his playing time did not increase. With the arrival of Lukas Podolski, it seems only a matter of time before he packs his bags once more—this time for a destination away from London, not one year removed from the secretive deal that brought him there in the first place.

But first he has to be found. John Duerden, an expert on Asian football, tweeted Wednesday that Park had dropped off the proverbial face of the earth.

"Nobody knows where Park Chu-young is," Duerden reported. "[He] hasn't been answering KFA (Korean Football Association) calls to check on his condition in past few days."

It was the latest twist in what has become a thoroughly bizarre affair concerning the Korean. Duerden tweeted on Thursday that Park had been dropped by the Korean national team ahead of a round of upcoming matches.

Where will this winding tale turn next? We'll have to wait and see. At the very least, it looks like Park will not be with Arsenal next season. But his disappearance is the sort of thing that makes one think he must want some time away from football after what he endured this season.

Too bad, really, when you think about it. This whole tale smacks of a missed opportunity. Nothing rankles like wasted talent.

AW has destroyed many careers. Dumbass of the highest order. He wastes money on absolute nobodies and then doesnt play them. What a joke of a manager! :lol:

[Niall_Quinn]

Here was a player known for his mobility and technical prowess, who could provide cover at the forward position in the event that Robin van Persie succumbed to injury.

RvP didn't get injured. And there you have it. Whole story, whole explanation in a nutshell. If he hadn't been brought in everyone would have spent the season complaining about a lack of cover for RvP instead. Now he hasn't answered phone calls from Korea, therefore he is missing. There's no possibility whatsoever other stuff that has not been made public could be going on in his life. It's unrealistic to think any player does anything not directly related to football.

[Marc Overmars]

RVP's fitness and form is a good point but Chakma got plenty of opportunities when we were in need of a goal during a game. Park was rarely even involved in the match day squads so literally never had a chance to prove his worth.

It was just a baffling signing all round, unless it was genuinely for marketing reasons, which I'm pretty sure it was now.

I can't remember too many times during the season where Wenget even mentioned Park and his merits.

[GP]

We went on tour to Korea.

We signed the captain of Korea.

There's no way those two are related.

[Japan Shaking All Over]

Which makes it all the more baffling that so many on here consider the guy shit when most have seen him play less than a full match in total and that includes a quite superb goal against Bolton. .. who needs Wenger to know, when GW always already seems to?

His ratings aren't all that, he has pace, agility and can finish. He's buried a few guys online for me. Always makes smart runs for me, has the ability to surprise defenders with a smart turn and then a sudden burst of pace. Damn shame it's a videogame.

The kid also looks good on Youtube. Fifa 12 must have studied his types because the've got his style down to a T. Just a shame we didn't see more of him because that finish against Bolton was classy. He can't be worse than Chamakh?

It's all very odd

[Power n Glory]

Bit of a piss take if we rejected loan moves. He wasn't given a chance. We even brought in Henry for cover at that period and he got more games. It's odd and we shouldn't have bought him if weren't going to use him. He was set to play for another club and we hijacked the move for no reason.

It seems totally bizarre but maybe this really was a panic buy by the transfer team For Marketing Purposes™ not someone Wenget actually wanted.

Given the inordinate amount of faith Wenger usually shows in his players, it's noticable when he freeeze someone out. Perhaps this is Wenger making a point? Perhaps he has friends at Lille and in embarrassed we fucked them over?

Whatever the case may be this has to go down as Epic Fail. A transfer in which everyone loses.

Park wastes a year of his career and incurs damage to his reputation.
Arsenal damages it's popularity in S.Korea.
Liile are pissed we fucked them over.
Wenger is pissed at being bypassed.
We expend wages, a fee and a squad position for pretty much zero return.

And the money men and marketeers who dreamt this shit up get exactly the opposite of what they hoped for. It's a fubar across the board.

Possible. Wouldn't be the first time our marketing guys have fucked up in spectacular fashion. Like the £3.50 over 79 years deal we did with the kit sponsors. Doubt we know the full story. You don't play Chamakh if you have a viable alternative. In some way this guy ended up being a non-option. He'll let us know once he's gone.

This may well have been a signing for economic rather than footballing reasons, but Wenger's an economist who seems to be a firm believer in the Chicago School Friedmanite school of economics, so I'm not sure he'd be against signing a player just to expand our support base in the Far East. He'd probably get his calculator out, do a cost-benefit analysis and give it the go ahead of the benefits outweighed the costs.

JAMES WARD cannot lose today — whatever the outcome of his clash with American star Mardy Fish.

The Arsenal-mad Brit will enjoy a VIP day out in the club’s directors’ box next season thanks to his beloved Gunners.

Ward’s favourite team stepped in after the hard-up world No 173 had been forced to flog his season ticket because he did not have enough money.

Gunners chief executive Ivan Gazidis has written to Ward in praise of his epic first round five-set win over Spain’s Pablo Andujar on Tuesday — his first win at SW19.

Gazidis told SunSport: “Everyone here at Arsenal is following James’ progress and wish him the best of luck in his next match against Mardy Fish.

“We know James is a big Arsenal fan and we have invited him as a VIP guest to a match at the Emirates next season. Best of luck to James and all the Arsenal-supporting tennis players at Wimbledon this year.”

A signed Gunners shirt is already en route to the Enfield-based ace, 25, in recognition of his triumph — the first by a British man other than Andy Murray for FOUR YEARS at the All England Club.
