Nothing on the Horizon!

Hello all,

Another day closer to the transfer deadline and there's still nothing no sign of us signing that essential midfielder that we all have craved for all summer long. Danny Fizsman revealed we had the money to spend if and when required but Arsene simply refuses to do so, Fizsman said:

"If Arsène said he needed £30million for a striker, he would get it, no problem at all."

Fizsman also added that the aim is to still to win trophies but its upto the manager to change our youth poilcy (personally the youth is just fine, but throwing in some experience here and there wouldn't hurt would it?)

"But that does not mean all we are interested in is the artistic achievement award. We are not settling for second-best. We want to win trophies and I think it is time we did, but Arsène also believes in creating teams with a certain style."

Now if theres money to be spent, and when theres such an obvious flaw in the centre of midfield and the existing players that we have thus far failed to pull a flamini, I have to admit it becomes a little more than frustrating.

Moving on, the team news for Arsenal's game this weekend we have no fresh injury worries ahead of the clash with Newcastle at Emirates Stadium. Theo & Gallas have recovered from thelittle knocks that they picked up and Nasri is back as well after recovering from a virus (how does he manage doing this in between games? of well, as long as he's fit!) Btw, Joey Barton could be back in the Newcastle squad!

As for Carlos vela, Le boss has cited International football and intense travelling as the reasons behind Carlos Vela’s continued absence from the team. But he did add:

“But I am confident he will play an important part in the season, but at the moment he is away. He is a top class player.”

I for one am rather excited of the prospect of having Vela play in our squad, the little I saw of him in preseaon, he looked sharp, fast & didn't look afraid to get stuck in.

As for the draw, well we've drawn Porto, Dinamo Kiev and Fenerbache. A tough draw I'd say, but something we should be able to get through what with Wenger's belief in the young squad.

Here's hoping for all three points and a trillion goals tommorow!

Come on you guuuuunnnnnnnerrrsss!!

Yep i totally agree with the man. Eventhough i m not your normal Gunner ( or a gunner for that matter :p) , but Arsene really needs to sign atleast two in the midfield. Cesc's return against twente showed what a quality midfielder can do to the team. The difference between a 1-0 loss and a 0-4 win was the midfield. Maybe Arsene would wake up now. Or am i missing somethin.
P.S Great Blog man!!!!
( Save the best for the end eh?)

Tonite match will reveal how badly we need CESC,

Agreed he is not one of the best, he is the best midfielder around, but there are times when we lost when CESC was around.

His presence is like a catalyst in Arsenal chemical reaction but still there are other players who are not CES but are KOLO and SAGNA etc.

The THEO-NRY goal was a classica, its just like HENRY
