[JrGunnerDJ]

Thats great, especially with Almunia getting old and I have never actually seem Poom play so we would have a good Second String Keeper next season

If there ever was a mogul that I'd want to takeover our club, Stan Kroenke,would be on the top of that list, man. He's not all about the exposure or the publicity....the dude is a genuine sports fanatic.....a supporter of both amateur and pro athletics all over the states.

1-0!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let's Go Arsenal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Help?]

Even though you beat us twice this season and were the only team troubling United, you gave us the deserved title. So thanks and good luck next season, like i said before, i would want any big changes around here because a 4-way race is far more exciting.

Chelsea deserve props for their Terminator style chase of Man Utd. Well dont Man U for your deserved title. As for Arsenal.....

Serious changes on the right wing are needed

 

[Bummy_JaB]

Well we have the ABSOLUTE BEST ladies team in the world. Jesus christ just look at the league record. And they are 1 game short of going udefeated with all WINS. They did a quadruple this year winning the League, league cup, london cup, and uefa cup. They have really represented us well.

Oh how I wish our lads were as good as this. But we actually have something to celebrate. I watched the Fa cup final against Charlton and they really are amazing to watch especially Yankey.

Clarification from Gallas:

William Gallas, the Gunners' French defender, wanted to deny the allegations in "France Football".

The disagreement with his club and French team-mate, Abou Diaby, and the rumours about a transfer to Real Madrid are completely untrue. William is calmly preparing for his last match of the season at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday against his former club Chelsea.

France Football reported a disagreement with Abou Diaby. What do you have to say about this?
William Gallas: I'd like to know where this story came from, who invented it. I've never had any problems or arguments with Abou. Nothing happened at all. I don't understand why such rumours were made up.

"France Football" also reported a possible transfer to Real Madrid. Have you had any contact with the Spaniards?
William Gallas: With Real Madrid? It's a complete invention. Lots of rumours run around at the end of seasons but until the player says something there's nothing definite. I haven't had any contact with them at all. I don't know why people are saying such things. It's utter rubbish.

And Arsenal secured a place in the Champions League next year after a season marked by many injuries.
William Gallas: It hasn't been an easy year. We had a lot of injuries in the team and didn't win anything. So it's a relief to qualify for the Champions League. We achieved our objective. Now we've got two more matches to play and we must remain professional until the end.

You'll play Chelsea on Saturday in the Premiership, it'll be more important for the Blues (2nd, five points behind Manchester United and still in the race for the title with three matches to go) than for you.
William Gallas: It's always an important game for Arsenal, a London derby. I'm not sure the match will be more important for them than for us. It'll be our last match of the season at home and we want to give something special to our fans.

From a personal viewpoint, you'll be marking your ex team-mate Didier Drogba? How have you prepared for this game? Have you called him?
William Gallas: No, I haven't been in touch with him or any other of my former team-mates. We prepare like we always do. Each weekend we have to focus on playing top quality teams. Even though I'll be marking Didier (Drogba), I know him very well and I'll prepare as usual, seriously.

Wow they're scoring on average more than 5 goals a game, and have only conceded 10.

 

[anas123]

how knows bout ne of da transfer rumours goin around arsenal??

players comin n leavin

 

[anas123]

aren't we supossed 2 b gettin dis keeper from legia warsaw n we r gettin ryan babel as well

 

[proxnet]

There is probably going to be a massive clear-out at the club, with Ljungberg leading it.

 

[PaPaGeorGeo]

Probably something like this

Out
Freddie
Flamini
Aliadiere
The Beast
Alex Song (maybe)


In
That young polish Keeper is 100% the rest are just rumors
Ribery
Babel
Renato

basiclly any young winger in Europe will get a link to us at some stage during the window

 

[Gunnersgoal22]

Babel and Henry are too similar. I would rather have a penalty area predator. Maybe Jan Huntelaar or Klose. And the rumors about Eto'o make my mouth water as long as it's not a swap with him and Henry. We MUST keep Henry just because he is the face and captain of our team. Things have gone down hill since the last time we let go of our captain.

I wouldn't want freddie to go, he's got loads of experience which our team currently needs imo. Ribery would be nice, if we get him i wouldn't mind hleb leaving

 

[anas123]

same if freddie does leave though i wudn't mind babel, however we do need to include some experience into our sqaud. i also agree that there cud be a big clear-out at arsenal.

 

[PaPaGeorGeo]

I wouldnt really want him to go but really he is past it, injury prone and hes not worth his wages.

Fabianski completes Arsenal move

Fabianski is a Polish international
Poland goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski has joined Arsenal from Legia Warsaw.
The 22-year-old has signed a "long-term" contract for the Gunners for an undisclosed fee.

Fabianski has made four appearances for his country and was voted the Polish league's best goalkeeper for the previous two seasons after.

The understudy to Celtic's Artur Boruc in the Poland national team will join Jens Lehmann and Manuel Almunia in Arsenal's keeper ranks.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger told the club's official website: "We are pleased to have signed Lukasz Fabianski.


Squad selector: Would you put Fabianski in your starting XI?
"He is a very good young goalkeeper who will provide good support to our squad.

"He has performed consistently well for Legia Warsaw in recent seasons and was rightfully rewarded with a place in the Polish World Cup squad.

"Lukasz will be a big asset to our squad and we are looking forward to him joining us for pre-season."

Fabianski said: "I am delighted to be joining Arsenal. They are a great club with many world-class players and I am really looking forward to meeting my new team-mates.

"Arsenal is one of the biggest and best clubs in Europe and I hope that I can help the team win trophies in the future."

 

[Yossarian]

never heard of the mother****er.....hope that he pans out well.

 

[proxnet]

just saw some videos of him, seems like a great keeper to me. I wonder if he can keep it up in the premiership.

 

[Tosiek]

He's able to do even more.

You just signed probably the biggest talent of Polish goalkeeping.
