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? He’s a legend. Well done Gilberto, and good luck in Greece.
You would imagine the sale of both Hleb and Gilberto in matter of days would indicate a huge signing, hopefully Barry or Alonso. I’m sure most Arsenal fans are dreaming of a big signing like this, let’s hope Wenger does us proud.

I’ll admit Alonso is a quality player but is he really an ideal replacement for Flamini? Anyone who saw his non-tackle against Barnet in the FA Cup last year will attest to this. I’d like to see Diaby get a shot – much like Flamini did last year – though last year he showed he could be somewhat lazy and/or rash with his tackling. I’m sure Wenger must have something up his sleeve …
I don’t think you can judge him on one bad performance, he’s absolutely quality with premiership experience. The boy can defend.
As for Diaby, I have to disagree on that one Damon, I think he would be diabolical in a defensive role. He gives the ball away far too often and he’s not confindent enough in the tackle. I know Wenger has said Song will play at the back, but I do believe he is only player with enough tenacity to be playing in the holding midfield role.
In Wenger we trust!
