On deadline day in the latest summer transfer, Arsenal agreed a fee of 6.2 million pounds to bring
the first choice Brazilian left back, Andre Santos, to the club from an unwilling Fenerbache. Since

Arsenal's young hotshot Jack Wilshere might be back for the Gunners sooner than expected judging by
the way his recovery is going. The midfielder had to undergo ankle surgery, and was expected to
return to the pitch somewhere in February, but the English International announced that he might be
ready to play sooner.
Ahead of the game that could seal the Gunners' progression from the group stages, Arsène Wenger
offered very little bad news regarding the Arsenal squad for the Borussia Dortmund encounter on
Wednesday evening. While Tomas Rosicky will be disappointed to be unable to face his former side
with "a small thigh strain", Abou Diaby's recovery [.
Kolo Touré's move to Manchester City in 2009 led to him being labelled as a money-grabber and as a
player who failed to repay Wenger's trust in him since his arrival at the club in 2002, and it now
seems that the risk he took didn't pay off. As well as finding himself second choice [...]

Gibbs is [...]

Arsene Wenger has ruled out any possibility of Aaron Ramsey extending his loan at Championship side
Cardiff and fully intends to use the Welsh international when he returns to Arsenal next week.
Ramsey scored for Cardiff in last night's win over Leicester, and he may play one more game for the
Bluebirds this weekend, but [.
Manuel Almunia is set to make a devastating return to the Arsenal squad as, apparently, the current
keepers are not making enough mistakes. I joke of course, but it is true, he may well be in the
squad to face Huddersfield at the weekend after shaking off injuries to his face, head and ribcage
after beatings [.
