Oh great the only bit of gossip for us was that parlour wants our board to break the bank to hold onto a player

Got to be kidding me! We need reinforcements and world class ones at that We are now 2nd best to all of our competitors in that department! Our attack is toothless bar the amazing van persie and yet another defender joins the injury crisis!

Getting very sick of this now; liverpool, united, city, chelsea and spurs all seem to able to hold on to their players and have more money to buy in players

We are being left behind and why is wenger saying we are out of the title race ? We keep dropping points and losing players we are out of the top four race
