As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Augie, are you saying that at 6'1" he is a short ass who we don't need....but if he was 1" bigger he'd be the best thing since extra cold guinness....?
8.48pm Yaya Toure's agent says he could be part of deal to take Cesc to Barca (although sounds more like he just isn't happy with the wages that City are offering!!): http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/footbal ... 725104.stm
"Barcelona midfielder Yaya Toure's agent claims the the Ivory Coast international, who has also been linked with Manchester City, could form part of the deal to bring back Cesc Fabregas to the Nou Camp.
"There's a lot of interest in the deal for Toure," Dimitri Seluk told Rac-1.
"Arsene Wenger likes him and Arsenal are interested. "If the conditions are good, everything can be finished soon. He could come into the Cesc deal and Barca and Arsenal are struggling to come to an agreement.
"Everything has changed with City, because they talk a lot but then afterwards they don't appear to be a rich club but rather a bankrupt one."
Ha! the agent is p***ed off with City for not paying him a big fat fee so he resorted to cheap shots! If only they were bankrupt, that would be hilarious!
Are we fighting a losing battle with Cesc? The media seem convinced he is going. Toure would be a decent signing, but I would still want £30mil + involved in any deal for Cesc as well.
I see Lassana Diarra has been linked with United, I am still disappointed we didn't see the best of him at Arsenal. If he had stuck around for a few more years he would have become a regular. Though he did go to Pompey when they were right in the middle of their 'money madness' stage
Do you know what..... I think that some newspapers have run out of genuine news owing to the little matter of the World Cup with the result that, and this is the shocking bit, they are rehashing old stories ( !) and.....possibly even reporting rumours from one paper as fact in another.
I won't beleive any transfer rumours until after the World Cup
PS until I read one I like and then I'll publish the details here.... !

He talked about how he got to where he is now, what Kosova need to do in order to help football talents achieve their dreams, and the possibility of playing for Arsenal.
A student from the university asked “As we know you had different offers from England, I want to know is there a possibility you will play for any of the big clubs?â€
