Firstly everyone's favourite Arsenal midfielder (Denilson, not Cesc) has rubbished talk of wanting to leave because of our lack of trophies, instead clarifying that he wanted to try a different league. He wants to find a good European club and if not he wants to go back to Brazil for six months. I don't
The guy has everything he needs to be one of the best here at Arsenal. He has intelligence, creativity, shooting and a treadmill. Once he uses all of those then he can be what he wants. I would love to see more of him in a central role, it is from there that he does most of his damage
Now that our stadium debts have lowered and cash seems to be more available than in recent years we could see Arsene doing what he does best, picking out great talent. When Arsene spends on players, he doesn't often make many mistakes and the prospect of Arsene finding another Overmars, Petit, Pires, Henry, Sagna, Nasri, Vermaelen etc is quite exciting
What this could possibly mean, is that Arsene may well already have his eye on a central midfield player, a more defensively minded midfielder. If that was the case then I would assume that it would be an experienced player and perhaps a captain of a current club or/and his national team
I want to talk about a new signing who has actually been identified by the manager and then Arsenal and the club agree on a fee, and then finally said player signs on the dotted line. Until then I just do not want to get involved with all the excitable made up crap from people who want to sell papers
It is the duty of the club to protect their investment and all these players are investments. Some are good investments and some will not make it. Some players do not even look up to the required level at 19, I am thinking along the likes of Alex Song yet we have given him new contracts and he has repaid
Ramsey and Wilshere will have built a fantastic platform to work on after a super showing against Manchester United last Sunday so I have my fingers crossed that they can continue to build on that and continue to show how good they can be. Regular readers of Arsenal Vision will know that I have been banging on the Ramsey and Wilshere drum for some time now and I am very excited about their future together. Having said that they need to make the most of their chances together because as soon as Cesc is fully fit and committed to the cause then he should walk straight into the team
In light of this I may well add more words to my sentences than necessary (as you can see from the previous sentence) in order to make up for lost time. If that confuses you or puts you off in any way then I am happy to send you a vial of the saltiest and most authentic tear drops I can muster.
