see ya Cesc! They've got him at a steal as well in today's market. Nasri next.

You know what you need to replace them Arsene, 3 centre backs and some pacey wingers :D

I've been saying this for 3 years now and somehow those b@stards pull it off every single year!  :D

But I'm really hoping it's true this year.  It seems like they will really struggle, and because Arsenal never spend more than £12 million on a single player, it will be hard for them to properly replace either of them.

They're essentially going thru what we went thru last year... Not exactly but their club is in a bit of turmoil like ours was.  Can't say I'd prefer it was them over chelski or manure, but that's just the way it works.

all depends how they spend it, its interesting cos Wenger's usually careful with money but here he really can't afford to be a tight b@stard (see what I did there :D )

he said hes not buying a left back, mistake already if he doesnt, they need a striker badly as well. RVP is destined to get injured

Wilshere and Ramsey can play the sexy football between them. If they were to go out and get a commanding CB and a solid midfielder to protect the defence then they could well be a force again.

Wilshere is a good player but he still makes a lot of errors, especially defensively.  He gives away a lot of stupid fouls.  To me, Ramsey is still not starting quality.  If he starts for them, then I'll be happy because it just shows that they are much weaker this season.

I think they're in trouble.  Their best players are all injury prone and they don't really have strong depth in their squad.  They don't have a good CB other than Vermaelen who's injured 75% of the season.  Gibbs is still really young, it's like us playing Robinson, Flanno or Kelly.  He's a little more progressed I suppose, but he's still really young and not good enough to start.  At this point I'd say we have a better LB and RB, they have 1 better CB, but our 2nd CB is better.  We thought our defense was in shambles...

That video is fookin awesome.  I have a hard time seeing Arsenal being near the top four with the losses of Cesc and Nasri.  The door is open.

Eboue hasn't been given a squad number yet i believe. on the way out too? ???

the only 3 other players from Arsenal i would love to see in our team (apart from Fabregas and Nasri) is Van Persie, Walcott and Vermaelen.

the problem with Arsenal over the years can be highlighted best in their transfers so far this season - their most expensive signing is a star for the future, Chamberlain £12M.

I wouldn't let Eboue near the reserves

Arsenal looked pretty average yesterday, they might be in free fall if they can't replace their midfielders, not to mention the problems at the back.  I'd take our back 4 right now over theirs and keeper isn't even a discussion.  They have just over two weeks before the window closes.  If I'm an arsenal fan, I'm very worried. glad I'm not :D

Just sold Eboue to Galatasaray  for 3 mill and sent Carlos Vela out on loan for the season...

Cant help but think they have a few deals lined up or else they could be in real trouble at least depth wise... Lets not forget they are in 4 competitions this year and Arsene really likes his rotation

They are bringing in some Costa Rican fella, think he was there tonight. Can't remember his name.
