Good weekend for us but it is Chelsea who have one hand on the double.

@ Spuds! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

[dreamcatcher]

Moving on t the next season. A few players, who according to me, should be offloaded with immediate effect.

1)Eduardo- We are sorry dude, but you aint the same. Isn't pro evolution soccer,its the EPL, your recovery period has stretched way too long.
2)Denilson-A couple of good goals doesnt make him great, should be swapped for a proper DM.
3)Silvestre-No comments.


What say?

We should be ready to splurge some cash on a proper defender. Gallas isnt getting any younger nor any faster. We need another vemaelen but with moe experience against the greats in europe.

[Arsenal_Gunners]

Edu is certainly expandable if Chamakh comes but who knows what a good preseason may do to him.Wenger is the best judge in this case.

Denilson started and is finishing the season on form with a poor spell in beteween.We can do with some DM cover but Denilson is a fine squad player.

The defensive situation is critical.Silvester and Senderos will go for sure.Sol is likely to leave too.There has not been any progress on Gallas' contract as well.I would really like Gallas to stay atleast for one more season.
If all of them leave(very likely) then we will have only TV and Djourou,who has not played for an year,left at Arsenal.

For me,a world class commanding CB is a must if Gallas leaves.If he stays we can do with a good young prospect as a 4th choice.

[dreamcatcher]

I dont see eduardo improving from here.Given he wont get match time with Arshavin,chamakh and RVP in the striking circle. It would do him good to shift to a softer league and inspire himself to some good performances. In the meantime, get another cover for Edu.

List for summer

1 CB
1 DM
1 LB
2 Strikers

Dont flame me for this, but isn't Arshavin turning into an overhyped prick. All hype and no substance?

Fine, no problem. Can we have this "overhyped prick" as an exchange for Riera and Babel?
OK 9m + Riera? Would be fine deal for both
P.S.: Do look at the number of games he had to endure this season before making any statements.

[ico]

The only mistake by Arshavin - got injured at the wrong time.

[Arsenal_Gunners]

Arshavin has had an average season to be honest.I don't know if it is injuries,formation or just a lack of effort.
Still he is a big part of our plans.Hope he has a good pre-season too.

[dreamcatcher]

Err.. Wouldnt deal Riera for Silvestre either..Oh wait..maybe i would.
Heard rumors about torres hunting for "no red" pastures. Should sign off with a bang(score a brace against chelsea. PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ)

Arshavin, to be honest hasnt done anything constructive throughout the season, he has been outmuscled and hasn't been half as effective. Add to that..hes selfish..

@Liv_fan- I share your apathy. 5 goals in 2 matches. great stat isnt it?

[phuchungbhutia]

I dont expect gunners to spend more n i think it ll be only chamakh cos its a free transfer lol .
When this season where they needed good players n fans pushing for new faces they didnt deliver, i dont expect anything from the management. Sorry dude, but i recon fab shud leave if no good players come in n switch to barca who are playing much better n winning trophies. N what if van persi comin back can be like edu comin back , lack of spark n match fitness. It ll b yet another sack.

[dreamcatcher]

Wenger would be splurging some cash this time around.A couple of strikers and a defender is a surity.

[thewisecrab]

Even if Fab leaves for Bar Soap, where would he play? They already have a brilliant midfield. He might turn out to be like Pleb, in the subs bench. I'm sure Fab knows that. So I figure he would remain in Arsenal for atleast another season.

Chelsea needs good DM cover for Essien, and a good right winger. (Anelka isnt getting any younger, why not swap him for Dzagoev? )

Arsenal dont need Chamakh IMO, Bendy has come of age, RVP will be fit. And they play a 4-3-3 formation anyway, with 2 wing-forwards and a central striker, so adding another striker for that "one" spot seems too much. They absolutely need really good CB and DM. Hangeland? maybe . .

Make it a couple of defenders and a striker(chamakh)+ the usual U-17s from lower leagues.

But who knows,maybe the club will get taken over and Wenger will get 50-60 million to spend.

Yes, looks like Chelsea will win the EPL this time. They have 77 points compared to our 73 with 4 games in hand and a better goal difference.

Well, time to get a better striker than Berbatov? and also strengthen the midfield?

[Kl@w-24]

Another win!!

We're getting warmer!!!

BTW, I'm in Chennai now and damn busy, so excuse me for being absent for long spells!!

joe cole was playing like piggy towards the end ... irresponsible ... der cud v easily been an equalizer by Bolton in dying moments .. everytime he got the ball he tried to score from outside the box thus giving away possession ...

Almunia Sagna Sol Vermaelen Clichy Denilson Diaby Nasri Eboue Rosicky Bendtner

RVP on the bench.Looks a bit weak on paper but we should get the result against those noobs.
