1. If you’d watched any matches recently, you’d have realised that Holding is not a winger.

   And if you looked at Arsenal.com you’d notice we’ve loaned out 6 – not 3 – U21 players.

2. I think this idea of mine of making sentences out club names is getting dangerously to the point of being over done.

   Despite their opening day victory in view of the fact they haven’t won the league for 26 years. I still the best sentence for them is the two words as one.

   Looserpool.

3. Does the Liverpool! competition require the explanation mark to be included? Has anyone else noticed that having announced the Perez and Mustafi deals and stating that our business was complete for the summer, rumours still keep on coming. I find it all so amusing

5. Using the club’s initials to make different sentences or phrases is another challenge.

7. If outside the rain is pouring down and you thinking ‘football’ oddities or as here the sun is shinning and you are thinking football.

   Try this one using the four English leagues and any other league you like, try listing the clubs whose first letter is the same as its last.

   As in

   Liverpool

   Aston Villa

8. And massive avalanches are usually killers.

9. exactly, no apologies what so ever from the nasty journos and bloggettas of their failure and untrue made believe rumors about Arsenal transfer activities but unsurprisingly in attempt to cover up their idiocies, some of them childishly start to accused Arsenal buying Lucas Pérez and Shkodran Mustafi out of panic. how pathetic and low-life can some of ‘them’ be? anyway, what a beautiful performance from The Gunners yesterday to get their 1st win of the season. can’t wait for all the players to settle in properly and give it all their best for the club this season. com’on Arsenal

10. In case you have felt pain during the Mustafi transfer saga, don’t feel surprised because

    If you have read a lot of stories about Theo Walcott leaving Arsenal, don’t be shocked because

11. Some folk do over react to the transfer rumours & gossip. It’s all harmless fun and nothing to get serious about. Who really cares how many different players a club is associated with?
    I can see that Tony has the right perspective on this by just taking the piss out of them.

12. Read on another site that Simeone was being lined up to take over next season. Say it isn’t so…

13. Congratulations!
    You have proven successfully ( for the fiftieth time) what almost everyone already knew – most transfer rumors are made up – well done!

    For the very few on here who were not aware of this fact, allow me to apologize on behalf of the media for misleading you on this subject.

    I’m profoundly sorry.

14. no wonder some folk use to tell lies cos when rumors and gossip by the journos and bloggettas were take as a normal stuff by them. u can tell a lot about some folk (character) who said rumors and gossip = lies) that lead to some fans to belittle and abused their own club every single days during the transfer window as a harmless fun and nothing to get serious about(maybe some fans use the rumor lies to their advantage to belittle the club cos they can’t stand the manager and want him sack, some even hate him). don’t understand why some people feel so bitter when UA were defending and call out the lies that were thrown to the club that we hold dearly to our heart, it’s like poison to some people. is a normal behavior in their life for some’ to defend what we loved and care. just like how Arsenal bound Shkodran Mustafi defend Mesut Ozil when a right wing fascism in their country try to spread hate among them. what S Mustafi did made me proud to be i a’muslim, don’t panic. we don’t need hate, we need love. peace to all

15. Apparently Mustafi was persuaded in his decision to join Arsenal by all the positive things Ozil has told him about the club.
    Very strange Mesut should recommend the club, given media reports that he is unhappy at Arsenal due to the clubs lack of ambition, and according to them he will not sign a contract extension and wants to leave.

16. Anyone else find this a bit odd?
    Now that we’ve signed somebody, reports are now finding ways out that Arsene and Arsenal did try to sign Griezmann……

19. It would be hard to imagine going from attacking football to something as defensive as Simeone.

22. I think some people misunderstand the point behind these articles regarding transfer rumours.

    It’s patently obvious by the tone of the articles that Sir Hardly realises it is all just bullshit. Of course we all know there are similar rumours attributed to every club, but that isn’t really the point is it.

    Surely the point of all this is about how these ‘rumours’ are used ?

    And in Arsenals case, as we all know, they are constantly used as a weapon to ‘bash’ us, and Wenger in particular.

    -This player turned us down.

    -This player is unhappy and wants to leave.

    -Wenger misses out on player ‘X’ because he’s too tight.

    -Wenger misses out on player ‘Y’ because he ‘dithered’.

    Blah blah blah.

    Contrast that to other Clubs. How often are a string of ‘Marquee’ signings linked to say, Man Utd, that eventually fail to materialise ?

    It happens regularly, but what we get in Uniteds case is a string of talking heads rolled out telling us how ‘ambitious’ United are, and how wonderful it will be when player ‘x’ turns up. The fawning is vomit inducing.

    But the fact is, just the same as with Arsenal and just about every other Club, more often than not, player ‘x’ fails to arrive. This is normal.

    But here’s the rub, when it all falls through for United what do we get ? Nothing. No ‘Dithering’ by United. No ‘United miss out again’. Nope, we just move on to the next ‘Marquee’ signing coming there way, and yet more vomit inducing crap. All remains rosy in the united garden.

    Similarly when it comes to late signings in the transfer window.

    When United signed Berbatov at the last minute some years ago SKY News embarked on what can only be described as a ‘wank fest’.

    Arsenal buy a player within a week of the window closing and it’s a ‘panic’ buy.

    Anyone spot a theme here ?

    The problem is, as obvious as all this is, people are sucked in, and sadly that includes a large group of Arsenal fans.

    For example you only have to read the recent article ‘New is just new’ by Tim Charlesworth, to see how even an Untold regular has been sucked in and placed himself firmly in the Wenger is a ‘Ditherer’ camp.

    I mean, just because you take time and care over a decision is that ‘dithering’ or is that ‘prudence’ ?

    Is just paying the first price you are given the right thing to do, even if that price is way over the players true value ?

    Or is negotiating a better deal the right thing to do ?

    I know what I think.

    Maybe when you are sponsored by a Country or a Billionaire you can just pay whatever is asked, but NOT when you are actually living in the real World.

    Calling Wenger a ‘ditherer’ is clearly an insult, which leads me back to my original point about what this is really all about.

    All these rumours are merely a means to an end. And the end game is simply to insult and undermine Arsenal FC.

    Ridiculing our transfer dealings is not the only way the media do this.

    They try a similar trick when it comes to referees. They destroy any ref that dares to give us a fair crack of the whip, yet praise to the hilt a ref that buries us.

    They attack our ticketing with vastly distorted figures.

    They attack our fans for being ‘fickle’ yet they are the ones that induce this behaviour in the first place.

    The media attack on us is incessant, and knows no bounds, and the attack on our transfer dealings is just one aspect of it.

    It is clearly NOT just innocent fun as some would try to have us believe. It is a serious and sustained attempt by the media to undermine everything about our Club.
