You and me both mate. With him we'd be feared again.

A meet up sounds great. Only for the fact I live among the Scots now I would join.

So will we have a prediction sort thing for the transfer window for Arsenal -Maybe your top three things you think will happen?

Mine would be.....

1. We will sign Higuain after an extensive Perez trolling campaign.
2. Bendy will be with us until the very end of the window and will go out on loan once more to some poor unsuspecting dutch or greek club.
3. Barcelona/Bayern Munich will try weasel the Kos away from us.

You forgot that we would put in an increased offer for Suarez

Made the mistake too at first, but that's his official instagram account. Linked at the top of his twitter

bad2dabone · 12-07-2013 09:34AM

Ahh cool. I'd better get some ketchup for my hat so

gnfnrhead · 12-07-2013 10:28AM

We'll need pictures before and after! :pac:

Another Friday has arrived and still nobody of significance signed.
We have no chance of landing Suarez lads.

The regular old con-job is still alive and well at Arsenal.

greendom · 12-07-2013 10:51AM

€40 million for Suarez ? Yes, I think he's worth it. A little bit of a gamble in terms of his temperament but we know he can cut it in the EPL

I think you need to rise above your cynicism - major purchases will happen this pre-season :cool:

Fuzzy_Dunlop · 12-07-2013 10:54AM

I'm quite confident as well. Just frustrating having to wait.

if we got him and higuain (i know i'm dreaming now) can you imagine.....

Nice to see Gazidis is in Asia working like a mad man to get transfers sorted no doubt :rolleyes:,

bad2dabone · 12-07-2013 10:59AM

Is it not Dick Law and Order who gets transfers sorted? (or not)

Seems to be Sod's Law getting our transfers sorted these days.

Chelsea's welcome

Arsenal's Welcome

bad2dabone · 12-07-2013 11:08AM

I'm really frustrated that we've not signed anyone so far, but i don't have a problem with Gazidis being in Asia, he's a commercial guy and as far as I can see he's doing a good job, the Puma deal and the Emirates deals are both impressive pieces of business.

But I don't think i can take 3 weeks of no signings. I think i'm cracking up. It might be time to turn off the internet for a few days.

AFAIK Gazidis does have to finalize any deals and him being in Asia is not a good sign he should be in London imo.

Yes Twitter really has a negative effect with the amount of stuff - (99% conjecture) that flies around. Might leave it for a couple of weeks.

Is he due to be there for the whole tour ?

wonga77 · 12-07-2013 12:11PM

So Wanyama has gone to southampton for about 12.5 mill, were the bigger clubs ever interested or was it just paper talk i wonder?

Gringo180 · 12-07-2013 12:34PM

According to Kolo Toure, a move to Arsenal would be a step backwards for Suarez :pac::pac: What an idiot :rolleyes:

To be fair considering he is a Liverpool player now its not surprising that he is making these comments. I really hope these Suarez stories are red herrings as I only see him causing disruption in the team if he is signed. Not to mention he is unavailable for the start of the season because of his ban.

gnfnrhead · 12-07-2013 01:27PM

I'm confidant we will sign at least one of Higuain, Suarez and Rooney. Which it'll be is anyone's guess.

And before anyone complains about them, they are all roughly the same level of quality, with Suarez being a little higher than the other two.

GavRedKing · 12-07-2013 01:33PM

Joe Cole said something similar when joining Liverpool, best/biggest club in the league blah blah.

Came out after his move to West Ham saying he never truly meant it.

Players will alwyas say stuff like that joining their new club.

Had Toure come straight from Arsenal I doubt he would have said what he did.

I am pie · 12-07-2013 01:37PM

He would be an idiot not to say it, of course he has to blow some smoke to win over the fans.

Supposed quote from Wenger:

"Suarez? As you know the transfer period demands secrets and confidentiality, so I can't answer the question." .
