All the rumours of Cesc Fabregas wanting a move to Real Madrid is absolute nonsense. Let’s put a stop to all of these rumours right now. Apparently, it’s been reported that Fabregas has spoken to Spanish newspaper Marca about rumours of a move to Real Madrid. I don’t believe it, and you shouldn’t either. The [...]

ARSENAL CHASING PALACE STAR
We’re after another 17-year-old, this time it’s Victor Moses from Crystal Palace, and the full report is here. With Simon “Sunbed” Jordan still seething from the supposedly cheap sale of John Bostock to Tottenham, you can’t imagine they would want to lose another gem so soon. We’re also being linked to Man City youngster Michael [...]

ARSENAL TO SIGN REASONABLE TARGET
Arsene Wenger has finally come out and said exactly what every Arsenal fan was hoping for, and publicly spoke about his desire to bring a midfielder to the club. When asked about his midfield, or lack of it, Wenger responded with, “We will need one more body in there”. He also mentioned the midfield target [...]

ARSENAL STARTING LINE UP
With all of these wholesale changes happening this season, I do not think our starting line up against WBA on the first game of the season will be too far off a team we would’ve fielded last season. The only trouble I’m having is who to partner Cesc in the middle of the park. I [...]

ARSENAL TO SIGN AT LEAST ONE MORE PLAYER
After the 2-1 win at Barnet, Arsene Wenger told press that he would sign at least one more player, maybe two. You can read the full article here. Aaron Ramsey was clearly the star man yesterday, every time he got the ball you felt like something was going to happen, and it generally did. Similarly [...]

OFFICIAL: GILBERTO SIGNS FOR PANATHINAIKOS
So we have finally sold Gilberto to Panathinaikos, the official report is here. Regardless what some fans think of him, he has been an absolutely fantastic player for us over the years, and he has been our most under-rated player in a long time. He just goes about his job, ego-free. What can I say? [...]

OFFICIAL: HLEB SIGNS FOR BARCELONA
So, it’s official, Hleb has finally signed for Barcelona for an undisclosed fee, believed to be around the £15m mark. The article can be found here. Sad to see him go, he was a decent player and probably has the best first touch I’ve ever seen, but he’s more suited to La Liga and I [...]

ARSENAL TO MAKE SHOCK KEEPER SIGNING?
Before you read any further, I do apologise if this is untrue, but I heard it from a reliable source and I’m going to post it in the hope that my source comes through with flying colours. I have a lot of credibility amongst my eleven readers and I’d rather keep that credibility in place, [...]

ARE ARSENAL FANS ACTUALLY WORRIED?
I don’t know about anyone else but I am more confident about this coming season then I ever have been as an Arsenal fan. There are rumours about Adebayor and Hleb leaving, and we’ve already lost Flamini and Lehmann, but I’m just not concerned whatsoever. Adebayor, Hleb and Flamini were great last season, and we [...]

NASRI FINALLY SIGNS, AND ARSENAL CHASE ONE-HIT-WONDER
So, Samir Nasri has finally signed for Arsenal. Not exactly sure what was holding up the deal but I was as excited as the next man when I finally read the news today and saw the official statement. I was actually starting to worry that he was never going to come. Full story can be [...]
