In the recent news I have seen some bull shit. But Reo Cocker to Arsenal is just silliness. We have Diaby and Denilson in contention for that Defensive Midfield position in the team. Why would we buy a crap player who is overused, overpriced and over-gay-sexed-with-Anton Ferdinand?
It just defies the law of Arsene Wenger to harm the growth of the players already here, to buy overprice and to buy English.
Ill tell you a list of a few players we should be looking at:
Ribery
Babel
Renato Augusto
Malouda
Villa
Tevez
Eto’o
Torres
We may need one of each. I believe we definitely need a winger. Just for covering injuries. Of course if we got Ribery he would, in my opinion, play ahead of Hleb (who is 10th in the Premiership) and would provide real pace and directness to our team. But a player like Babel or Renato would be excellent cover for both flanks and could be great. We desperately need a player who will burn past players. Hleb and Rosicky can dribble, but we need the other option.
Buying a striker is less important. We have enough in terms of numbers but the question is weather Bendtner will hack it in the Premiership? I have to say he didn’t really do well in the Championship. If we did sign a striker I want someone like Tevez. He would be just Immense. Henry will need to be rested more than he usually gets. So Adebayor as our only real cover striker is not enough. Having Henry, RvP, Ade and another would be awesome!
There are many days left till the transfer season is over so I will save other stuff for then.
Have a happy day!

When I look at the future of our little Gunners (all older than me) I get the urge to comment on each ones potential ability. Some of them will be destined for stardom and others for Portsmouth.
Abou Diaby: This guy could become the real “The New Vieira” because he has all the same qualities that Vieira has. He is mean in a tackle, very good at passing, bit of aggression and a lot of strength. But he has a little extra; he has skill and a bit of a dribble. He could go a long way.
Cesc Fabuloso: I don’t really need to comment. This guy is already, in my opinion, the best midfield player in the world and he could become the greatest ever.
Big Phil: I don’t know. He was in the unbeatable defence in the Champions League then he went on to become a liability. Arsene obviously sees potential but at the cost of red cards and silly mistakes? I say he should go.
Van Persie: He was supposed to be the new Bergkamp. He is not the new Bergkamp, he is Robin van Persie and he doesn’t give a shit about opposition and I love him. He may be the only person in the squad who would rather go it alone than pass to Thierry. He has got real talent and could become a legend and a 20 goal man.
Denilson: If you asked me who I would rather have in the midfield, Denilson or Gilberto? I would pick this guy (with Diaby ahead of him) because he has a brilliant distribution and a strong challenge. I believe that we should use Gilberto too much and he is only needed against hard opposition. Denilson could become a star.
Flamini/Song: Both going to leave someday and hopefully about five o’clock today. Don’t like Flaminis attitude and Song is not better than what we have.
Jo Djourou: He is big, strong, a good defender and also pretty good on the ball. He would be my long-term partner for Kolo as Gallas should go in about 3 years. Djourou could become an excellent centre-back if he stays with us. He just needs to keep control of his position and be more confident in the air.
Gael Clichy: My player of the season and the best left-back in the premiership by a mile. He is the best left-back I have seen since that CUNT! A. Hole left us and I am sure he will be better than him. I am so happy we have him because he could be the best in the world since Carlos.
Adebayooor: The man loves The Arsenal and is a real nice guy. He is very talented and a great player to come off the bench and maybe grab a goal or set someone up. He is the only player in the squad that I think could have a great partnership with Henry, Van Persie, Walcott or Bendtner. Top player and top guy.
Eboue: It is a love/hate relationship. The guy is a genius going forward. I even kind of like his diving. But he can’t defend. If he learns how to defend he would be world-class but not yet.
Aliadiere: Bye bye. Good servant, but not good player. (Im getting bored)
Justin Hoyte: very good cover for Emmanuel Eboue but just doesn’t have the attacking threat. It’s weird because he can defend and Eboue can attack. The two mixed would be splendid. Hoyte will be, as I said, very good cover, but as long as Eboue is here I don’t see him playing a lot.
Theo Walcott: I was very unimpressed with him until I heard he had a shoulder injury. How can you be brilliant with a strapped shoulder? So I forgive his bad performances and I will judge him based on next season. Fingers crossed he has no injuries. He will be awesome.
Traore: I haven’t seen enough of him to be a judge but my mate who watches a lot of football in the reserves and under 18 says he is brilliant and could be better than Clichy. Doubt it.
Nick Bendtner: He can hold it up and play football the Arsenal way. The lack of pace and movement may be a factor in weather he is a success but Bergkamp wasn’t fast. He will be class here of somewhere else.
Merida: He will be world-class. The only question is weather he will be better than Cesc. He could you know.
That is it from me. Cya some other day.

Sit in The Grove.
This is my new blog (the other was a shambles) and I aim to make all Arsenal fans happy to be a Gooner and stress out much less. It’s a hard task at this moment in time. It’s almost impossible. But the impossible is nothing. It’s a saying off that advert…
Let’s start off with the transfer gossip. Or as I call it: Lies.
Now, I understand rumours and gossip, but this is utter bollocks.
And the Cesc to Real Madrid one is the funniest! He is a Catalan. He wouldn’t go to Real Madrid. The main reason this “rumour” is lies is because Arsene was in Madrid to discuss Jose “wahhhhh” Reyes with A. Madrid representatives.
Enough on Cescy Fabuloso. He won’t go. Don’t worry.
It has come to my understanding that we need a winger. It’s true. We have no competition in that area. Rosicky and Hleb are guaranteed to play so the signing of Ribery, Babel, Renato Augusto, David Silva or someone like that would be a happy thought. They would provide cover and competition and also if they play, Pace and direction. We have lacked that.
There is talk of Eto’o or Owen coming to The Grove. Maybe even Bent. When I look at the strikers we have there is no need to buy.
Henry - Van Persie - Adebayor - Bendtner - Walcott
Unless Henry and either RvP or Ade get injured we are fine.
Looking forward to blogging more in the future.
On REO COCKER!
