Assuming that we're not going to get Cavani and nearly every other option exhausted I'd chuck silly money at Swansea for Bony. He wouldn't have been my first choice but its a massive improvement on the postman, would suit our system and shouldn't need settling in time. Apparently he has 20m buy out.

I keep getting this horrible feeling about Welbeck though....I'd honestly prefer us not to sign anybody

yet there are still so many defenders, read the comments under the articles on the home page, badarse, westlower, jamie, lee afc, GBP, either they are all the same person or are the stupidest people on the planet

Wenger, Gazidis, Kroenke. My utter disgust and contempt for you is total. You are incompetent *word censored* of the highest order and I have nothing but utter disgust for all of you. Get the fuck out of the club.

Defoe on loan until January :lol:
Saw that earlier. They don't even bother to "vet" the fucking rumours! clearly if we needed a short arse up front we would already be happy with Podolski or Campbell.

I wonder what Wenger will do if Chambers gets injured. He is the current 3rd choice CB and 2nd choice RB as well as (probably) 3rd choice DM.

We do not have a squad capable of 3 competitions. Going to be a long season.

Arsenal very unlikely to sign anyone before deadline. Barring late surprise & a couple of squad exits, #AFC business is done #bbcdeadlineday - Ornstien

We're not signing anyone?

I knew we weren't getting a striker but what about that mythical being who could play centre half and defensive midfield? What about the centre half we'd definitely be getting if Vermaelen left?!

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Jesus H. Christ. I have no more words. Wow.

It's ridiculous. As things stand, I suppose Flamini would fill in at centre back.

I cannot see that we won't sign another centre back. I just can't. :shock:

We have 4 fit defenders at present, only 2 centre backs, no defensive midfielder worthy of the name and no striker. There are 10 hours to go before the window closes and our "manager" is off to referee a charity game. This is real life people, real life.
