Title: will arsenal buy anyone?
intrigue - August 25, 2009 08:03 PM (GMT)
I was think will Arsenal actually buy someone or are we just gettin our hopes up
bergstar - August 25, 2009 08:10 PM (GMT)
I'd say we're far more likely to sell another couple
PGFC - August 25, 2009 08:25 PM (GMT)
Yes and No :rolleyes:
but seriously, no.

doubt it to be honest, we do seem to have a good squad at the moment which is a bit surprising, however a dm to cover the gaping hole we'll have whenever Song is ACONd would be a good idea.
Marc Overmars - August 25, 2009 09:25 PM (GMT)
Yes, we will sign one at least.

Wenger does deadline days very well.
I am sure he wants to make sure he has Champions League cash coming in before he gets the cheque book out of his safe...
Syn - August 26, 2009 12:15 AM (GMT)
No.
Or at least, no-one that will make a difference this season. We'll have what we've got and it's enough.

I have a sneaky feeling that we could bring in someone but I wouldn't be surprised if we don't in the end
I remember sitting up all through the night(sad I know), was it too seasons ago waiting to see if we were going to go for Tevez and Mascha
I can see another round of late night bargains but I can tell you I won't be staying up to see the shenanigans take place live
it can be like Christmas a pleasant surprise to wkae up to in the morning

Our squad is massive. I think Wenger will only buy if he sells some fringe players.
We've got a huge squad and if you go through it it's rather good.

Yes, nobody 'big' though. AW likes his last minute deals..
RVP Left Foot - August 26, 2009 10:07 AM (GMT)
Yes 1 will arrive from last minute.com

I have to say that it seems to me many seem happy with the squad now because we started so well, had we had an awful start people would be screaming for signings as they have all summer.
Personally I feel we need one or two more, a defensive midfielder is still a must for me, but I'm resigned to it not happening. It's not now we're going to notice the lack of depth in terms of quality it's towards the tail end of the season.
I'm pretty happy with the team as many of the players have quality, just not convinced about the squad, the bench against Celtic to me looked like a CC bench....I felt it looked too weak. Now sure we've got injuries but we will have throughout the season so we can't use that excuse.
1st thing we should have done is got rid of Silvestre though, I don't care where he is in the pecking order he should never even make the bench, you simply can't rely on him putting in a decent shift. I'd go as far as to say he's a liability and I'd rather we played with 10 men than put him on.
Rkane - August 26, 2009 11:45 AM (GMT)
Without doubt. He'll get at least one more in very near or on deadline day.
Jens' Face - August 26, 2009 12:03 PM (GMT)
I wish there was an "I have no idea" option

Yeah, as he's done for the past few years.
Jens' Face - August 26, 2009 12:39 PM (GMT)
did we make a d-day buy last summer? I can't remember one, unless it was Beanhead, but wasn't he much earlier than that, maybe even before the season started?
Marc Overmars - August 26, 2009 12:51 PM (GMT)
We signed him a week before deadline day I think.
davegordo - August 26, 2009 01:01 PM (GMT)
Wenger will do all his business; starting from Friday, finishing 2 hours past the deadline next week!
2 players Matuidi and Chamakh
If Senderos goes then 1 more........ Subotic? some young CB fingers crossed

:pray:
(unless his encounter with Jens has rendered him perpetually anxious of course)
Arseniger - August 26, 2009 04:38 PM (GMT)
I see only a DM coming and since everyone is running away from Senderous we will have to stick to him as the New CB.

TheJoyOfCesc - August 26, 2009 09:53 PM (GMT)
We have the extra CL money now so lets see what happens. Still don't think we'll sign anyone.
anfield 1989 - August 27, 2009 02:16 AM (GMT)
He has virtually stated he prefers top do business late to keep selling clubs on their toes so price is not inflated.
We need to buy a CB and DM.
If Gallas or Vermalen (both outstanding so far) got injured then I would be very unhappy as Djourou is injured and only Silvestre is available (forget Senderos he hasn't had a look in so far). I actually think this is even more pressing than what I'd previously thought in DM.
Also if Song goes to ANC or gets injured. He after those two has been hugely impressive.

GoonerBear - August 27, 2009 07:53 AM (GMT)
I hope we sign at least one more, but i wouldn't be suprised if we signed nobody else.
Jack Bauer - August 27, 2009 07:58 AM (GMT)
Get rid of Djorou and sign a better replacement.
Silvestre is shit. That's been confirmed but I doubt we're going to find better shit as our 4th choice centreback.

gerrard because liverpool will be out of the title race by sunday :pray:
