Andre Santos is back in training with the group again which is tremendous news, we certainly missed something going forward when his services were taken from us. He is one of the most entertaining fullbacks that I have seen, especially at Arsenal. What made it even worse was that he was starting to get into his stride, his fitness was improving, he was getting stronger defensively and started to have a good understanding with his team mates. I want to see him take another big
With that, I will leave you to share around your Podolski fixes Basically what I am trying to say is that I believe that Darren Dein has told Mancini or someone at Manchester City that Robin van Persie would like to stay at Arsenal and that he will The game against Tottenham was a perfect example. at 0-2 down, the world was close to ending. I felt dizzy thinking about watching those lot celebrate in our stadium, having to read text messages from several Tottenham supporting friends of
The Lukas Podolski rumours do not appear to be slowing down any time soon with our good old Per Mertesacker talking about his late night chats with Podolski. There might not be any mention of those chats being late night but it just sounds better. Mertesacker has been selling how good life is at Arsenal but I do not know about the context.

Arsenal players go down holding body parts after 'tackles' I a not talking Eboue type of going down, I am talking about warriors like Bacary Sagna and Thomas Vermaelen who do not go down unless they are properly hurt.

Get stuck in, get in their faces and hurt those fancy Dan Arsenal boys, they don't like it. Our players really need to sort that
The axe finally fell over the neck of Andre Villas-Boas, a young manager who got many tongues wagging due to his impressive record at Porto. Many were wishing that he would replace Arsene Wenger as the manager but it just goes to show that rebuilding a team and get instant results is not as simple as some like to make out, even when you have huge funds available to spend let alone if you have to
I have spent far too long talking about something that hasn't happened so I just want to cross my fingers and hope that all the Arsenal boys return to the club in good health and without wanting to ask for too much, I wouldn't mind if our rivals were to suffer from a few set back. Only because I believe desperately in equal rights. We have had more than our fair share of
The Lukas Podolski to Arsenal train has been picking up momentum in the last few hours since German outlet Bild if you can speak German then I guess that link would be quite useful. So what do I make of this then? Well you know when players say that they want to concentrate on playing and then have a look at the contract situation in the summer, well that is pretty much how I feel about this. Good player, would improve the squad but at this moment in time it is all pretty irrelevant. It is February, the season does not finish until May and the transfer
