Gross ...

Wouldn't be too gone on that at all. Here's hoping the home will be better. At least it doesn't look like the shape of last season's, the away was like a drawing of a jersey you'd do in second class, not comfortable at all for a man of my...ahem....physique.

El Mundo says Barcelona have marked this Friday for a definitive yes or no from Arsenal for Cesc. If it's no they'll look elsewhere.

The Barca boardroom on Friday:

Occasionally somone will pick up to check for a dial tone.

We're being strongly linked with Sebastien Squillachi of Sevilla this morning. 30 or so, played in the CL, ex of Monaco and Lyon and has 20 international caps, apparently a bit more of a hard man than a Nesta type of footballing defender. Potentially the type of addition to the squad that the club has been crying out for for a couple of years, not a massive name but he could be a solid addition to lend experience and a bit of steel. Haven't seen a lot of him so I won't comment on how good he is.

Now if we could only get the keeper situation sorted, would love it to be Shay but there's the issue of City probably not wanting to sell to a rival. Schwarzer isn't a top keeper but he's better than what we've got, he'd do.

Bringing in those two would go a long way to settle a lot of fans nerves for the coming season I think and would at least show that Wenger has moved to address the two most glaring problems in the team.

Frimpong rumoured to have ruptured his cruciate.

 

[Janer]

Frim did yes and Squillachi passed his medical, 4 good CBs now, far better then what we had last year, plz plz god let us get that keeper.
Imagine how good we would be with a Reina or Hart in goal, seriously...

 

[Janer]

I feel even further detatched.

That'll do. Would have taken the point here given last season's catastrophe at Ewood.

Watched the game on a pretty good stream, WBA played very fast and confidently, nice quick passes, they just about deserved it, primarily because of how sloppy we were in defence, we only looked decent once Rosicky and Wilshire came on, Rosicky looks really good this season.
Well done WBA.

 

[Unicron]

At least I don't support Clyde.

Man City vs Arsenal is looking tasty and important for both clubs if they want to prove that they're title contenders and can win the big games.
Funnily enough I'm more upbeat about our chances this year even though City are stronger this year.

City played extremely well for the period after the 1st goal and before the 2nd proving to me that they may be top four this season.

And Lescott can't get a game

also :smug:

 

[Unicron]

Wasn't expecting that win at all.

If only Arsenal's season didn't finish at Easter, they may actually win another trophy

 

[washingcattle]

Do Arsenal just not want to be in the Champions league ? What are they playing at ? I'd be tearing my fucking hair out if i was a gunner.

 

[Wheels]

Wow, who didn't see that outcome coming? Poor old Arsene just doesn't get that his pretty football is no use against wily Slurgie's tactics. Not a single win in their last 11 games against United or Chelsea, that must drive him mad.
