[Japan Shaking All Over]

Some of you are going to be very disappointed today. At best, we'll get some pub teamer to fill in at CM. The 'big' money signing was Mertesacker.

nope......it will take a lot more to dowse my fire of anticipation, 7-8 million is not the big one......more to come, we still got......

[I_Killed_Kenny]

is hazard everyones idea of a marquee signing? still young, relatively unproven at the highest level. not much experience. is it marquee cos it may be 25m odd or cos he has super quality? my idea of marquee would be the kaka or schweinsteger type buy not the hazard/goetze type but even though it would be big bucks

Kaka would be a very expensive backup, can't see him starting ahead of Schweinsteiger. And the German won't have come here to play second fiddle. We'd be making a statement of intent if we tried for Hazard. We could say, "We intend to sign Hazard" If Lille wanted to get all negative and say no then that would be their problem.

arseblog latest news

11.30am: Henri Lansbury sounds like he could be off to West Ham United. He’s not had much chance to prove himself since the start of the season, despite the fact we’ve been down to the bare bone marrow. Loan deal apparently…



11.25am: Nicklas Bendtner looks set to shun interest from Real Madrid and Barcelona (we’re lying) to join Stoke. Here’s what he had to say on Sporten.dk:

“It’s as close as it possibly can be. I’ve not signed anything, but expect clarification this afternoon.”

I think we can safely say that NB52 will be a Potter by 11pm. Tony Pulis is already stripped and ready for the welcome shower.

for us. . . could well be! Ligue 1 player of the year (I think) is not bad tho!
I say get him. . .can see Walcott moving in field. . . Oxo given time to develop and Arshavin being plan B - Gerbil and the Dukes of Hazard on the wings

Shore up the centre and buy another CB (may not have enough for that tbh) and we could be looking very tidy and considering we only lost 2 of any (great) significance then I would have to say job well done, little late yrs but still well done this window
Hargreaves on a free would not be bad either, he would play more for us. . . does that lot make me sound greedy. . .surely Zimm would be happy, no striker tho, but goals would have to come from elsewhere!

motion sickness setting in, writing too much while on the train home or could be the thought of NQ on a leash

Let Walcott play centre striker. . . .to be honest fed up of the lone striker formation, fact that we lost our two best assist producers doesnt help either and Jack being out, with the new guys or at least the names mentioned looks like more width/pace down the flanks and a holding centre but a lot depends on the next few hours

1430: Right - we've been waiting all day for an update on the Yossi Benayoun situation, well BBC Sport's John Sinnott has been speaking to his representatives, who say: "It will be Tottenham, Arsenal or Liverpool. We don't know yet." Blimey.

BBC sports news correspondent Dan Roan on Twitter: "OK I'm told by those in the know that of the three clubs chasing Benayoun, the most likely destination is... Liverpool FC."

Oscar Wilde would have been proud of that one.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Marseille have confirmed that striker Andre-Pierre Gignac is abroad negotiating a move away from the club.
Reports have suggested that a host of Premier League clubs are keen, with Fulham, (http://topics.skysports.com/fulham/?section=football)http://static.lingospot.com/spot/image/spacer.gif Everton (http://topics.skysports.com/everton/?section=football)http://static.lingospot.com/spot/image/spacer.gif and Blackburn all linked whilst Genoa (http://topics.skysports.com/genoa/?section=football)http://static.lingospot.com/spot/image/spacer.gif and Olympiakos have also been mentioned.
Marseille (http://topics.skysports.com/marseille/?section=football)http://static.lingospot.com/spot/image/spacer.gif have not revealed who their striker is talking to, but confirmed he is set to leave.
"I understand he is abroad," assistant coach Guy Stephan confirmed.
"There are negotiations currently ongoing, but we need all three parties [two clubs and player] to agree. Maybe it will or will not happen."
Marseille themselves are still in the market for a new striker ahead of Wednesday's transfer deadline



Sing him up Wenger sign him up

LOL - just pissed my pants watching SSN. They were confirming the Parker deal and showing the geezer training, wearing a white kit. I assumed he was already down at the spud shithole having a kickaround. Then Theo runs past also dressed in white. Fuck, splutter, WTF - we've sold Theo? Luckily at that point John Terry strolls past and that's when I realise... Terry is a cunt.

11 on a defender seems about as wrong as Gallas having the 10 before, but I'm thinking positive hoping they keep 4 and 8 free for two new midfielders... give Mertesacker something stupid like Bendys nobby 52:p

Stringing this gossip together, why would we refuse to pay the fee for M'Vila and yet agree to a similar amount for Fellaini? And Wenger has just spectacularly witnessed what happens when you stick inexperienced players into a big game, his memory can't be that short.

Lansbury out on loan too so we surely must be signing somebody in the middle? Even at full strength our midfield is weak.

Agree with that! Though having defenders who are not completely brain dead will help. From set pieces, the signings should help but in open play, I can still see us struggling... for starters, we should stop playing the high line that we usually play and also we should have our wingers track back or check their runs when the full backs are on.. just general defending 101 stuff which we seem to forget!
