Also let yaya toure after having him over for a trial, and then we signed Diaby

Do some of the arsenal players have barca DNA?

Think theo would be the choice for me vs Chelsea.
Diaby and BFG for physical presence *kicking Terry again*

Understand this mate, Arshavin will be off in Jan id imagine. Squillaci out of contract in the summer and Sao Paoulo paying Denilsons wage's. So there slowly going, thankfully :D :D I don't know for certain but I reckon we're still footing a considerable amount of Denilson's (and Bendtner's) wages ...

Imagine the clock end should have a good atmosphere. Must beat these c**ts, cant be dealing with all these european chants. Up the Arsenal

What mystifies me is, with all these 'star players' leaving, why the wage bill keeps rising.

There was a lock out with the NFL players last year related to players salaries, retirement plans and all sorts. Could never see it happening in the premier league.

Wonder if Stevie Bould will influence/change Arshavin's attitude on the pitch

A friend of mine was in the 31,000's and was offered one in the summer

Presume most people have the priority link for this but if anyone doesn't. I'm more than happy to pass on.

I've backed Carlisle and Newcastle double @ 45.5/1

Thought tottenham will put the 'first teamers' on the bench ahead of utd away at weeked. Carlisle have also made a good start to the season.

United again, I would imagine will rest first team with a 'big' game on Saturday.

Aneke will be gone soon, he is nowhere near the standard that players for the Arsenal should be. Afobe on the other hand, looks good providing he stays fit and gets regular first team football.

Arsenal vs Chelsea 2-1
Everton vs Southampton 3-1
Fulham vs Man City 1-3
Norwich vs Liverpool 2-2
Reading vs Newcastle 0-2
Sunderland vs Wigan 2-1
Man Utd vs Tottenham 3-1

Think we will run out comfortable winners although i expect a decent performance from Cov. Would like to see Giroud play and hopefully open his account.
