Look at Chelski dont play teams off the park but what Arsenal fan wouldnt trade places with one of those right now. we are not a million miles away from competing but we are all craving silverware and buying players who will be the finished article in 3 years isnt good enough for us anymore we want some world class players now because if we have anothe season like this come the end of next season so long FABREGAS.... You heard it here first. We all trust in the boss and we all appreciate all we stand for and all he does and although he takes these players and makes them i still want to be able to have a little hope.

Geoff, is it worth spending 8-12 million replacing Flamini, who is ultimately just a work horse when we have Diaby & Denilson?? I do understand your point but if Wenger buys another player for that position when he already has 2 then how are either going to get the playing time needed & if he does buy a player then he should sell both the others. With regards the injuries its clear thats down to the players training, Too much time is spent on stretches & speed training & none is spent on the players bulking up. I've said before on this site that Ronaldo (the man utd one) wouldn't be the same player he is now if he was at Arsenal, when he arrived he was lightweight & couldn't handle challenges but Ferguson got him in the gym & his game has moved on. At Arsenal he'd still be that lightweight player that first arrived. Wenger won't allow players to bulk up because he thinks it slows them down.

I would add Deco to that list - it looks like hes going on the cheap, maybe 8-10 mil, which is a reasonable for a player of his callibre, and maybe instead of Villa, Robhino? Id love either of them. But nice post, ita about time we signed a big player like Torres. Time to feel the elation! AFC53 -

I felt the same excitement when i heard that Big Sol had signed for us too. But all the excitement for me has now gone we spend a lot of money on Reyes,Wiltord,Jeffers, and all of these materialised into nothing(reported 34m Spent) Then we get players who we all loved Petit,Vieria,Henry,Overmars,The incredible sulk these were all diamonds when we had them but times are now we are a selling club and although the boss is a legend and has transformed the football we play i want to feel the same excitement liverpool felt when they landed Torres,Man utd did with Rooney,Chelsea did with Shevchenko, But we are talking about signing a young unproven kid from man city for between 7-14 million and a Aussie under 21 captain. Summer wish list not over the top carried away but reasonable Outs: Gallas - 7m Overpaid and overated Jens - 1.5m Great keeper we need to buy younger though Eboue - 4m Headless chicken Gilberto - 3.5m Thanks for everything time to slow down in Italy Hoyte - 1.5m not gonna make it for a few years Hleb - 15m cash in on him why hes hot and fond of Ice cream Rosicky & RVP give these two time to heel if they dont play next year then get rid Ins: Kompany - 7.5m Richards - 9m Arteta - 9m Villa - 16m Joaquin - 8m Memories like the corners of my mind,I remember the excitement i felt when i heard Bruce Rioch had signed a certian Arsenal legend for 7.5m which was a lot at the time.

While it is technically true that he can leave, Wenger is making sure that no-one else comes and makes bids for other players. Hes using Hleb to say basically this: "Unless they are out of contract and dont want to sign, then BACK OFF!"
