As the window draws nearer expect Khedira, Cavani, Schneiderlin and Hummels rumours to slowly die a painful death and watch Perrin and Mings walk in through those Emirates doors

Coquelin can play in 3 positions............and he's poor in all of them!!

Please don't get excited by any January signings, this is Arsole Wonga FFS, there'll be no mega money quality signings, it will be a bargain basement 5m signing from France, a defender and yet another mediocre midfielder from NotVeryGood FC for another 5-8m.....that will be it, at best!!

Wonga is more concerned at filling the Arsenal Wiggy Bank than winning trophies, that will never ever change. :roll:

By the start of next season, if, as expected, wenger is still here...
Podolski will definitely have left...criminally underused.
Campbell will leave...not fancied by Wenger for some reason.
Sanchez...couldn't be blamed for wanting out..and we will sell if any decent offer comes in.
Ozil...doesn't seem to want to be here..not helped by being played out of position...could be sold.
Arteta/Flamini...both past it...Should be moved on.
Per..not sure he has another season at the top in him...somehow getting slower each game.

Add to that the usual injuries to gibbs, Jack, Ramsey and kos.
Wouldn't be surprised if chambers soon gets run into the ground and gets a consistent run of injuries.

Plus players not coming back from loans jenks/afobe and the 2CBs and dm will clearly already need.

I reckon we need 7/8 players minimum in the next 2 transfer windows combined...

Bang on the money.

I'd say though that Campbell really doesn't look more than an average player to me. And Mertesacker was already looking run down when he left Bremen. I am surprised he's done as well as he has but it's an inexorible slide now.

Only when Wenger has left will things change. They may get worse but there's a chance that they could be better as well and the potential of a huge club be realised (which will come as a shock to many :D ).

Yeah I bet Arteta Diaby and Rosicky could do with somebody else in their Physio Room Bridge Club.

Khedira is not a true DM and will not be forced into playing there - all hypothetical of course, but IF we signed him I dont expect our midfield to improve even the slightest :evil:
I suggested a few seasons ago, that wenker is UNABLE to see our shortcomings much less fix them - when you are being bullied and pushed around by a lot of opposition teams, the last thing you should do is buy two more midgets (ozil and sanchez) and instead should be looking for a big powerful enforcer type to win the ball for your playmakers and ensure that nobody pushed any of his team-mates around.......khedira fills neither of those roles

Can't think of a centre back or midfielder who is in their 30's and has been injured for most of the season,(who doesn't already play for us), but if there is one or two then that's who we are signing on loan...
