He's slick...

You know ya want it...(on a t-shirt)

Morning all, here's your news that I promised you yesterday...(if you can call it news).

As if in response to my blog yesterday, Kolo has responded to my declaration of love, explaining that he just didn't feel loved enough and that's why he considered his future. WTF Who didn't love him? The fans always have, and the manager played him even when he could have rightly dropped him.  Did we not send enough flowers when he malaria? What's going on?  If I 'felt the love' coming from my boss, I'd be seriously concerned - there's laws against that sort of thing for a reason you know!

Elsewhere, the man who hasn't yet committed his future to Arsenal, is telling Arsenal not to let anyone go.  Set the standard VP, sign your deal if you want others to stay. Simples.  The language he uses is promising though, talking about 'we' and 'next season,' hardly the language of a man who is on his way out the door.  Stranger things have happened, but I reckon he'll stay.

A lot is being made of Arshavin's comments regarding his role on the left. I think there is more than a little mischief-making going on out there in the media (shocker).  When I first read it (I know I have a tendency to read what I want to see rather than what is actually there) I thought he was talking of the surprise he had at his own ability to play left-wing.  Everyone else seems to think he is moaning about playing there.  What do you think? I'd be interested to hear the actual interview because if he was picked up wrong and said:

“I still can’t get used to the idea that I am capable of playing there and I'm baffled I can do it". 

Instead of what the Sun printed which was:

“I still can’t get used to the idea that I am capable of playing there and, frankly, having to do it keeps me baffled." 

Do you seriously think Arshavin said frankly? 

This article has now morphed into 'Arshavin unhappy at Arsenal and considering his future.'  Watch the smile on his face on Saturday and then tell me how unhappy he is. Load of bollocks if you ask me.

The madness that is the summer transfer window is well underway and I, for on, am looking forward to it.   We know we're going to buy, and it's going to be mental, but there's no reason we can't have a bit of fun with all the names who are linked with us compared to the nobody's Wenger is bound to sign (think Sagna before you slag that tactic).  If we signed Tevez I think I might wet myself.  Admit it, you know you would too! £20 million for Bolton's Cahill? Told you it was mental.

Inter and the not-so-special one want Cesc. They'll even give us £40million for him.  What part of 'I'm happy at Arsenal' does the Portuguese Prick not understand?

Meanwhile, this blog suggests five players we should buy, and I agree with four of them.  I'd forget about Upson, there's better to be had out there. A shopping list that Wenger should definitely consult.

But before we can get into that too deeply we have to remember that we have Man U at Old Trafford on Saturday.  We might not have anything to play for, but they sure as hell do.  Win against Wigan tonight and Manure will only need a point against us to win the league.  Who here wants to be on the pitch when that happens?  Maybe it would be a good thing, show the Arsenal players what they could get if they sorted out their attitude? 

Anyway, we have to focus unless we want a proper spanking.  Though it would just be like us to go up there and get a result as all the fans are expecting a hefty battering.  Who didn't think against both Man U (champions league) and Chelsea (league and cup) that we were going to get something out of the matches?  Most of us did on some level, but earlier in the season when we first played them, we feel as we do now - that there is no hope. One last twist to close the freak season that has been 08/09?

I can but dream eh?

Can you impress us the way Andrey has?

There's no prize, just the satisfaction you get with being a witty b*stard.  Was going to do one myself, but it almost seemed to easy...
