1. C’mon! Lets leave all this “linked to” stuff behind. It’s become soooh boring. The window is shut and it’s around 120 days to the next one. So please lets take a break and talk about more non repetitive Arsenal related matter.

2. The last splutterings lol!

3. Leon,

   I’m sure that before the end of September we will be seeing the opening salvoes in the January transfer window players linked. Make the most of the brief period of relative tranquility.

4. Does put the media reports into perspective.
   Some very good players have arrived in 2016, onwards and upwards …until the media madness starts again.

5. Yeah. 115 players linked is stupid, even if you assume that they got everyone of our transfers right, which they did not. Its flat out lying and making things up, and I find it very weird why people enjoy it.

   If I’m honest, at one time I enjoyed it too – but once you know it is all fake, why would you *still* enjoy it? It doesn’t make sense IMO. Anyway, life goes on.

6. 120 days till the next transfer window I saw arsenal liked to a new player yesterday.
   The pain never stops gg

7. The transfer folly that the media encourages assuredly allows them to do numerous things they really enjoy and excel at(journalism not being one of them):

   1)Pretend they know what is going on behind closed doors at the EPL Clubs,

   2)Ridicule Wenger and Arsenal at will,

   3)Quote each other as totally credible sources on transfers,

   4)Exercise their imaginations in a fantasyland of Football folly,

   5)Pump up their aaa fanboys by running this linear critique: X is coming to AFC, opps, Wenger is too cheap to pay the asking price for him, Once again all is lost because of the same old,same old, and We were the first to say we told you so!!!

   Basically it is the REDTOP disease, using hyperbole and pure speculation to create a scenario and then deflating the idiotic reader who swallowed the bait hook,line and sinker! It is a way to mock the readers without overly risking anything.

8. Don’t forget the Twitter meltdown, another easy story to cut and paste for them.

9. Sir Hardly – you do cast some pearls before swine. There are so many words of wisdom beneath your posts yet some still ignore them like they have been trained by PGMO in selective vision.

   Looking forward to the season & our squad of beautiful footballers.

10. I’m very glad that you decided to leave things with turning LIVERPOOL into an acronym. Could you imagine trying to do so with?

    Borussia Mönchengladbach

    I then went looking for long names. The longest I found is from Bangkok, Thailand.

    Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit Bravo Association Football Club

    ………. Also known as Bangkok Bravo FC

    I think you could probably curse the entire world with that name.

13. Gord – you are hilarious sometimes. That Bangkok club would be ideal for a talkshite presenter. It would keep him off air for a long time.

    Mick – great descriptional attributes for tots.

14. Menace
    Talking of talkshite, yesterday they had Tony Cascarino on as a co-presenter. I have never heard such a load of nonsense from a pundit, it was truly a masterful example of an ignorant ex footballer trying his hardest to sound intelligent but failing miserably. He can talk for five minutes without actually saying anything of any value. He frequently starts a new sentence before completing the one he is currently on. He is even worse than another Talkshite presenter Micky Quinn, and that is really saying something. Remarkably he writes for the Times newspaper.

15. BIG NEWS!!

    http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/10563358/mark-halsey-claims-he-was-told-to-say-he-hadnt-seen-incidents

    The cracks are finally starting to show fellas!!

16. Jammy J, I can’t see why a Neville is upset with this. They were part of the problem.

17. The worst part of the transfer window is that we (and most other clubs) have so many truly gullible fans that lap up pretty much every single word of these hack journalists.
    At least they’re just trying to earn a living.

    The fans that think 2 guys from the same country must be great mates, so our player must want him to join us, so its just a ‘done deal’ except for our tight dithering manager.
    The fans that want us to deal with the dodgiest of agents just because another team has low morals and will do business with them.
    And so much more.
    Really embarrassing.

18. In particular, Halsey referenced being told by PGMO to say that he did not see an incident, so that the FA could discipline someone. It seems reasonable the converse also happened, a referee being told to say that they seen an incident, so that further discipline by the FA could not happen.

19. I see the slime-bag Mino Raiola has called Klopp a ‘piece of shit’.
    Hopefully in future other managers will appreciate that Raiola is a person they don’t want to deal with.
