Well as always this summer Arsenal have been linked with many players throughout the world, but
today I have set out to create a post about the realistic players who could come to Arsenal and the
likely hood we will sign them.
Starting from defence and working up the field you can see the players below, (Please note
the word realistic because we have been linked with many players around the field and I'm only
showing as the word suggest real transfer prospects.
Well as you expect within the middle of the summer transfer season Arsenal, as always have been
linked with many players from around the world and also within England.
From the transfer rumours displayed so far this is who I would like to find lined up for the
first game next season in the premier league:
Goalkeeper
Manuel Almunia:
Why?
As you will know and as I think why do football transfers go on for so long once a manager
has targeted his player and put a bid in for him. Isn't it as simple as I bid £5 million for a
player, the bid is accepted, money paid and the player moves on? Well no, so I'd though I should
explain:
Here we go from start to finish
In spite of all the glitz and glamour of football, players are still traded like cattle.
Arsenal have won some silverware!!!!! Before you get hopes up it's our very impressive youth
team who havent lost a single match since December. Yesterday we had not a lot to do after beating
LIverpool youth 4-1 at The Emirates we went to Liverpool and also won 2-1. I have watched both legs
on Setanta and we are gonna be invincible again.
Atfernoon all, i am very happy to bring you the news that a midfield star has been spotted at
the Arsenal training ground.
Blaise Matuidi 22, of St.Etienne who has been reccomended by Arsenal scout Gilles Grimandi. Has
been seen in London last night after immense speculation linking him with our club.
CESC FABREGAS has pleaded with boss Arsene Wenger to sign a midfield hardman.
Arsenal skipper Fabregas misses tough-tackling Mathieu Flamini who quit the Gunners last summer
for AC Milan and has not been replaced.
So after a long week of Melo will sign and Melo won't it appears now conclusively that Juve have
struck a deal and Arsenal can't financially and won't match it. So this leaves the door open for
the question who will we attempt to sign now, after our main target has moved.. I shall
discuss:
Blaise Matuidi
This transfers seems to be done on the evidence of things; he is apparently in England,
according to Sky Sports news and his current club St Etienne have signed Fernande's from Man City
(Central Defensive Midfielder) and appear to be looking for another defensive minded player, from
Greece somewhere.
A good game from an extremely young side yesterday in attack but my gosh they do need to work
at the defence. Some of it was appalling but if they play like that we will surely win matches in
the future.
The Motd Highlights
We are not liable for these highlights because we do not own them.
UDINESE defender Cristian Zapata claims Arsenal are among the clubs interested in signing him
this summer.
The 22-year-old has made 17 league starts for Udinese this season and his performances for the
Bianconeri have not gone unnoticed.
He said: "Juventus, Fiorentina, Milan, Arsenal and Villarreal have requested information about
me.
Hi everyone hope you've had good weeks up to this point and will be looking forward to the
Celtic game tonight to probably see a few young guns in action.
But what has caught my eye today is a few journalists predicting Arsenal to be in action on
transfer deadline day and throughout the week prior to it, I'll explain:
The Dail Mirror's Football Spy
From his insider knowledge or it could be what he just made up he is predicting 2 Arsenal moves
in the last week of the transfer window:
Blaise Matuidi
This story has ran for ages and you all know who he is by now so I won't bother with huge
details but he's a Defenesive Midfielder with a great talent.
It has been reported in various newspapers today and web columns (especially on the Daily Mail)
that Arsene Wenger will finally make his interest in Brazilian star Felipe Melo de Carvalho,
currently of Fiorentina in the form of a bid.
Arsene Wenger has tracked the star for about 3 years now and lost out last season to Fiorentina
who signed the Brazil international for £10 million euros from Almeria the Spanish side.
Good morning to everyone reading this post (or should I say good day if you are reading it after
12:00). There have been many rumours and gossip flying around today though a few appear to be
substantial, which is quite good. I will digress:
Blaise Matuidi
Many of the morning's papers and various other media have been reporting that Blaise Matuidi is
to sign for Arsenal for a fee ranging from £2.
Well here are the pictures of the new blue away kit. I'll let you decided what you think
give us a comment
Friendly match: Barnet FC vs Arsenal FC 2:2. Match highlights.
Goals from: Arshavin and Barazite
Arsene Wenger agreed a £10million deal for Ajax centre-back Thomas Vermaelen yesterday but is
still unsure about who will partner him at the heart of Arsenal's defence next season.
Though his agent Soren Lerby was still negotiating personal terms last night, Vermaelen seems
certain to sign a four-year contract at The Emirates after convincing the Arsenal manager he has
the credentials to shore up a defence that was repeatedly found wanting last season.
A good game yesterday and although the score is big it could of been even more if a few shots
had been on target anyaway, here was the action:
Report
Arsene Wenger's men made sure of victory as they were 3-1 up at the interval thanks to a
brace from Nicklas Bendtner (36 & 44) and an Aaron Ramsey (39) strike.
Yesterday I watched the match between Crystal Palace and Man City on Sky Sports 1 and throughout
the 1st half and glimpses in the second Palace held their own and in the 1st half had 5 shots on
target 4 more than Man City.
But one player caught my attention through the match and this was Palace's Victor Moses.
Mamadou Sakho, currently a young PSG Centre Back has been a target of Arsenal for a while now
and according to his agent Arsenal are the "most interested" club but currently are "to cheap"
inclining that we have made a bid but have not offered enough.
This is what he had to say:
"He will be moving clubs this summer.
Here are the match highlights Arsenal played reasonably well although still showed signs of
defensive weaknesses. It's time for Wenger to get his cheque book out.

Well before I start I've got a lot two get through. So this might take a while!
£15 million bid for Melo
According to "News of the World" and the "Daily Mirror" Arsenal have made a £15 million bid for
Brazil and Fiorentina's defensive midfield player, as I already discussed a few days earlier to
this post.
Well here are the pictures of the new blue away kit. I'll let you decided what you think
give us a comment
Well what a dissapointing end to a good start! Typical Arsenal; control the game and then score
but don't take advantage, by scoring another goal when on top. Then stupidity from Almunia allows
an equaliser, then I'm not even gonna try to explain Diaby's actions. What was he thinking?
Although Almunia was to blame again, he should of collected the ball from the cross.
Now before you read this you will be either scratching your head and thinking hmm or .. will be
banging your head thinking we nearly signed De Rossi.
This morning on Wikipedia Daniel De Rossi's page was chanegd from Roma player to Arsenal. Yes
your thinking no big deal but WAIT.
Then for 10 15 minutes Arsenal.
Today has been quite a day for news stories reporting Arsenal FC; there has been transfer news,
Wenger's quote's about various issues and stupid newspaper columnists sledging us over and over
again. But let's calm down.
News reports on Huntelaar
It has been clear knowledge for a day now that Huntelaar is not keen on a mover to Stuggart even
though Real have agreed a fee.
John O Shea Goal - Man Utd V Arseal 1-0
Here's the goal that all arsenal fans detest to see but I have to find all highlights!
These highlights are not owned by us so we are not liable
Please resgiter if you like the site. Thankyou.
One Word: Gutted.
Adebayor is a complete idiot and has just confirmed why we sold him, at least Toure was decent
enough to play properly. Adebayor clarly stamped on Van Persie and Robin has accused him of this,
this evening with Sky Sports News reporting it at around 9:00pm.
It has been announced today in "The Guardian" newspaper that Real Madrid have sent a fax to many
premier league clubs telling them of Real Madrid players up for sale. Within this list is Klaas-Jan
Huntelaar who has been linked with Arsenal for a while and if and I say if Adebayor is sold then he
could definitely be a worth while (and in my opinion better) replacement.
Emmanuel Adebayor has passed a medical and will move to Manchester City once his work
permit is approved.
The Togo striker, who has spent three-and-a-half seasons at Arsenal, is believed to be valued at
£25m.
The 25-year-old, who scored 16 times for the Gunners last season, has also been linked to AC
Milan and Chelsea.
The weird colours at the start go away about after 5 seconds! Goals from Arshavin in the 86th
minute and 90th.
There have been various reports in the press this morning over a few of Arsenal's transfer
dealings, as i shall tell you about below:
Marouane Chamakh
The Daily Mirror reports that Arsene will make a final move for the Moroccan international after
his £5 million bid was rejected earlier this summer, they report the bid will be around £8.
Robin Van Persie turned down potential mega offers from Chelsea, Manchester City, Inter Milan
and Juventus before signing his new four-year deal with Arsenal.
Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti is a long-time admirer of the 25-year-old Dutch striker and a
move to Arsenal's local rivals would have meant Van Persie did not need to uproot his family from
their London home.
It was been revealed today in many newspapers that Arsenal are wanting Wolfsburgs top form
striker Edin Dzeko for a fee of around £8 million. The player himself has said nothing on leaving
but indicated earlier in they ear that a move to the premier league would be good.
Although with Man City's muscle in the money department it could be hard to sign anyone if we're
against them!
Arsenal are reportedly battling Juventus to sign £17million-rated Macedonia striker Goran
Pandev.
The 25-year-old has told Lazio he needs a new challenge after five years in Rome and the Gunners
are said to have joined the race for his signature.
Last month he was linked to Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea and Liverpool, while Bayern Munich and
Fiorentina are now also reported to be interested.
Emmanuel Adebayor has been offered to AC and Inter Milan – to stop him from being sold to
Chelsea.
Arsenal are determined to auction off Adebayor this summer and have hired agents to try to
strike a £25million deal.
But Gunners boss Arsene Wenger fears that the Milan giants have lost interest in the 25-year-old
after his disappointing season.
Sunday's papers is awash with loads of transfer news this morning which hasn't been the norm for
quite a time now; I will digress.
Eboue to Fiorentina
I haven't posted this story on Arsenal-highlights this week because I was unsure of it's roots
but it seems now that there is firm proof that Fiorentina among other clubs will bid for Eboue,
although personally I can't deem it to be the £8 million which the media have reported.
Hello everyone, you may be thinking where am I coming from with the headline, after the
devastating loss to Manchester United on Saturday but you have to look at things in a rounded way
as I shall explain below:
The Loss versus Man United
Yes firstl;y we lost the game and probably should and deserved to win it, but let's not dwell on
that.
Goals:
Van Persie, Diaby and Arshavin
The news coming out of Fiorentina today is that Arsenal have until Friday to finalise a deal if
they wish to sign Felipe Melo from them. Juventus talks have collapsed after Marco Marchionni's
refused to sign for Fiorentina on the deal they offered him. To add to this Fiorentina's supporters
staged a protest that one of their best players was being sold to a bitter rival, consequently
with this in mind Fiorentina want to sell to Arsenal and have set a Friday deadline date.
Good news for hopeful Arsenal fans; Portsmouth have accepted a bid for Peter Crouch from
Tottenham Source Sky Sports. This must surely mean that Redknapp has ruled himself out of signing
Huntelaar which could be a major breakthrough in our so called attempts to sign him.
With no other known competition Wenger now may be much more inclined to make a bid and sign
him.
