What are we going to do with Nicklas Bendtner when he comes back to Arsenal? by SS

Simple, sell him. He has been on loan at Juventus this season after Arsene Wenger finally tried and failed to sell him last summer. He has not scored a single goal at Juventus this season and has failed to show the Arsenal management why he should stay at the club.

Bendtner started his career in his native Denmark with Copenhagen who are one of the biggest and best clubs in Denmark. He was purchased as a teenager for a very small amount and left to prove his worth in Arsenal’s reserves for a while. .......Read the full article here

Denilson to be sold by Arsenal by AH

Arsenal look set to let go one of the many ‘deadwood’ players we have at the club this summer in Brazilian midfielder Denilson. Denilson is currently on loan in his homeland Brazil with Sao Paulo and they have today spoken about their willingness to sign the player to a permanent deal.

SkySports reports;
“There are still more than 60 days left on his contract, so there are a couple of points to take into consideration. The first point is that we are interested in the player and the second point is that we must deal with this situation closer to the end of the deal. If we do it too early, it will end up costing us more money.” .......Read the full article here

Arsene Wenger has often made spectacular errors when buying defenders for Arsenal, and although Sebastien Squillaci is still impossible to sell or loan out, it seems that Andre Santos still has some respect in his homeland and Brazil’s Gremio believe that he could be a useful addition to their squad.

Naturally no-one ever wants to buy any players that Arsenal want to sell, so yet again it seems that Santos will be loaned out until the end of his contract or perhaps we will have to pay Gremio to take him on permanently at the end of the season. .......Read the full article here

Arsenal have learned from previous situations with Robin van Persie and others and have worked hard to ensure that no players are allowed to enter the final years of their contracts. Now that the deal with Theo Walcott is complete, Bacary Sagna is the player next on the list for a renewal. The French right back has declined to agree to a new deal so far, however, and could be sold in the summer. This leaves Arsene Wenger with a dilemma about how to deal with Sagna and his understudy Carl Jenkinson. .......Read the full article here

Le Coq’s Qualities by AH

Francis Coquelin has featured infrequently for Arsenal this season, but when he has he’s been a real top quality prospect that has made the fans want to see more. His most recent appearance was against Swansea in the FA Cup reply on Wednesday and he put in a solid performance, linking in well with Diaby and Wilshere.

Coquelin has both the attacking and defensive side to his game; however he seems like a real defensive midfield with his defending duties dominating in his performance on the pitch. In recent years we have seen arguably more attacking minded players play in the holding midfield roles. Arteta has converted well to his position, however Diaby still likes to get up the pitch as does Wilshere. .......Read the full article here

Arsenal Set To Let Another Defender Go! by AH

We already know about the soon to be confirmed departure of Johan Djourou to Bundesliga side Hannover on a six month loan deal and the fact that French defender Sebastian Squillaci is on the lookout for a new club, but Arsenal could be set to let another centre back go in this transfer period. Don’t worry it’s not Koscielny, Mertesacker or Vermaelen but 20 year old Spanish defender Ignasi Miquel. .......Read the full article here

Arsenal Pair Sent Out On Loan by AH

Arsenal have today successfully negotiated terms with two teams which will see both Marouane Chamakh and Johan Djourou leave the club on respective short term loans.

Chamakh has joined fellow London club West Ham United and will be looking to provide support in the Hammers strike force as they look to push up the table. Whilst Djourou is off to Germany to play for Bundesliga side Hannover. .......Read the full article here

Arsene Wenger has put an end to the speculation over a possible third spell at Arsenal for the 35-year old French striker Thierry Henry. The former Gunner and goal machine has been training with the Arsenal players during the off season from his club, New York Red Bulls, in the American MLS.

The Arsenal manager had kept the possibility open, but had suggested that a another loan move at the Emirates might be one time too many for Henry. He did well for us last year, scoring the winning goal in two matches, but Wenger would not want him to struggle. When asked specifically whether there was still a chance he might play for Arsenal again, Wenger gave the simple reply, “No.” .......Read the full article here

Arsenal have been linked with the highly unlikely transfer of Barcelona striker David Villa. The Spanish striker has been linked with a move away from the Spanish giants with a number of clubs reportedly interested in signing him.

Stories linking Villa with Arsenal have appeared across a variety of different smartphone apps and sources. The truth of the sources is debateable as there is nothing official coming from the media in Spain.

Trusting these traffic generating sources is naïve. There are many different apps you can use if you simply want a laugh or some entertainment like poker games apps or an app for an online casino for smartphones like iphone and Android. .......Read the full article here

It is being reported this morning that Arsene Wenger is intending to kick off the Jnuary transfer window in style by announcing the signing of Thierry Henry for the THIRD time in his career.

The Mail says that Arsenal already have the agreement of Henry’s bosses at the New York Red Bulls, and the ongoing talks are only about the length of the loan, with Wenger asking to keep Henry for longer than last years stay, maybe even until the end of the season…. .......Read the full article here

Arsene Wenger was speaking about potential signings in January to strengthen the Arsenal squad, but his words about the former striker Thierry Henry make it abundantly clear that he would jump at the chance of getting the star striker back on loan as we did last season. The only problem Wenger has is to persuade a reluctant New York Red Bulls to allow their best player to spend his rest time playing for the Gunners.

“Henry is the talent that you dream to have. He has fantastic physique, fantastic technique, a fantastic brain, all built together in one man. At the start he was not confident enough but he has gone on to show what a great player he is. .......Read the full article here

What will become of Aaron Ramsey? by AH

In my last article, in the comments section there was a lot of controversy about Aaron Ramsey’s place in this Arsenal squad. There were many people being negative about the Welshman and saying he should be sold. There were also some people defending the midfielder saying that he still has quality in him.

Wenger is known to be a big fan of Ramsey, sometimes bringing him on just for the sake of it and it often frustrates the fans. Leading to the question; what is Aaron Ramsey’s place in this Arsenal team? .......Read the full article here
