While new squad personnel will be needed in some capacity, I generally feel that at least 75% of what we need can be achieved on the training ground. We have the best midfield in the country and pretty much dictate every game we play, at least in our domestic league. We consistently dominate
Arsene Wenger has spoken very highly of former player Dragan Stojkovic, the current manager of Grampus Eight, a club that Wenger managed whilst in Japan. Apparently he has the same ideas and philosophy as Wenger. Grampus Eight have won their league in Japan this season but if he was to leave
As much as I love Bacary Sagna in the side, I love his no nonsense approach to defending. I also enjoy watching the marauding runs of Emmanuel Eboue at home. Having said that I think a game as big as Liverpool would suit Sagna as we can expect the opposition to venture out of their half more than
He has a bursting urge to drive tens of lorries packed with £50 notes into the Emirates. He wants to sit Arsene down by a candle light dinner and convince him to spend all his cash as he deserves it. Usmanov wants Arsenal fans to be happy and for Arsenal to win every single game without conceding any goals and scoring fives and sixes every game.

The takeover news has been dominating the Arsenal news over the last few days and I must say I am a little bored of it already which is a really ignorant thing to say especially considering the importance of it all, but to be honest off pitch shenanigans do not get my juices flowing.

The media paint a picture of Arsenal being dark and doomy apart from the football we play. Everything else is just a shambles. Everywhere we turn it is Arsenal haven't won a trophy for 6 years, Arsenal cannot defend, Arsenal need steel, Arsene Wenger will not spend, Arsene Wenger is a moaner
I have purposefully steered clear of reading around too many places, I dread to think what has been said in certain quarters but I can understand the frustration of our supporters. That being said, I can imagine similar conversations being said amongst the Arsenal staff. When the players really needed the
The rumour mill has been in full effect. Goalkeepers are standing in an orderly queue outside Ashburton Grove with their silver pens ready to sign on the dotted line to be Arsene's new goalkeeper. The latest seems to be Bolton's Al Habsi who is on loan at Wigan and he had a man of the match performance at the Emirates earlier this season. First Ajax's Maarten Stekelenburg threw his hat into the ring, Pepe Reina was supposedly the subject
