- Transfers 25 August: 73 players cominig to Arsenal, 30 players leaving
- Highlights and the last time Arsenal won their first three league games….
By Sir Hardly Anyone
Our regular review of the transfer market usually hits around 110 players arriving and the entire squad leaving, but this summer matters are running slowly because of the new regulations about balancing the books. With the League already deducting points from two clubs, with another Chelsea investigation up and running, and no sign to an end of the 115 charges against Manchester City, nor of Manchester City’s legal case against the Premier League, things seem to be more in the hands of the solicitors rather than the club managers.
But still the media has managed to make up 73 incoming players and 30 leaving. Normally they get two percent or sometimes three percent right so that would be two or three incoming – so perhaps holdings one’s breath is not going to be a very safe option at the moment.

Aston Villa applied equal pressure and is worthy of becoming a top 6 side again this year, so it was a very good result to turn the tables on them this time and win a hard game by 2-0. This will put us in good stead for the next couple of difficult games ahead. One or two players will need to up their game, but it is early in the league and wins breed confidence.
Up the gooners.
