Theo Walcott is proving his value to Arsenal with his goalscoring this season, whether playing from the right or through the middle, and he could be given the chance to show what he can do for England this week. The visit of Brazil to Wembley on Wednesday is a real glamour tie, and Walcott’s hopes of getting the chance to score were given a boost today from Daniel Sturridge.

The new Liverpool striker has pulled out of the game due to a thigh injury he picked up yesterday against Manchester City. It cannot be too serious an injury, because he played on for most of the game and turned up with the rest of the England squad last night. He did not rain today, however, and has returned to Liverpool for treatment. .......Read the full article here

Arsenal vs Liverpool preview, predicted match line up and score line prediction. by KJ

After two wins on the bounce, many Arsenal fans are starting to feel ever so slightly comfortable with the team again and it’s got a big test today against an in form Liverpool. It’s all nice and good winning against the likes of West Ham and Brighton but home games against Liverpool are the ones that will decide whether we get into the top 4 or not. .......Read the full article here

Don’t worry Arsenal fans, Arsene Wenger is not just sitting on his hands while rival teams snap up players like Demba Ba, Lewis Holtby and Daniel Sturridge. Arsenal are like a cheetah on the African savannah, lying in wait, coiled like a spring ready to pounce. Any old antelope won’t do, however. We are waiting for the juiciest, most succulent prey to come along. The only problem is, we might starve to death before that happens.

The situations of Chelsea’s Daniel Sturridge and our own Theo Walcott are very similar. They are both unsettled at their present clubs seemingly because they are both being used as wingers but are both adamant that they have a godgiven right to be deployed as an out-and-out striker.

Liverpool are definitely in the market for another striker and the rumours are saying that they want either Walcott or Sturridge to move up Merseyside in January, but with the Arsenal man not wanting to leave London there is surely more probability that he would prefer a move to our London neighbours, and perhaps Chelsea would allow Sturridge to move to the Emirates in exchange. .......Read the full article here

Arsenal make inquiries about Sturridge by TS

Is it just me or are Arsenal linked with a lot of loan transfers this season? Be that as it may, The Daily Mirror are saying that Arsenal have taken an interest in loaning Chelsea striker Daniel Sturridge to the Emirates. However, Chelsea are not willing to let the player go until they bring in a replacement striker. The Mirror also claim that Liverpool and Spurs have asked about the player. Why is it when we are linked to someone are those two moronic clubs following us like a bunch of starving hyenas waiting to feed off our scraps? .......Read the full article here

There are quite a few Arsenal rumours building up in the media at the moment, but there seems to be very little about M’Vila which is one player I think Wenger WILL buy!

But there are a few other possibilities if Arsenal really want to improve the team next season. First up is some weird story about Van Persie taking a personal visit to Juventus to have a look around and discuss terms, but I really don’t believe that one. Why should he? The same wages, the same chances of winning the Champions League (zero!) and just as much competition to win the League. No I just can’t see it. By the way Van Persie is 10/1 to score the most goals at Euro 2012. Maybe he should wait until after the competition to see what he is offered elsewhere? .......Read the full article here

It is definitely one of the more outlandish Arsenal transfer rumours doing the rounds today, but if it is true it would seem to be an excellent deal for Arsene Wenger right now.

With it now seeming extremely unlikely that Robin Van Persie is going to extend his contract at Arsenal, the Gunners are going to be in desperate need of another prolific centre-forward to fill his shoes, and Chelsea’s Daniel Sturridge certainly has the promise to do that with aplomb. .......Read the full article here

It is being reported this morning that the Chelsea striker Daniel Sturridge has been pinpointed by Arsenal as the perfect replacement for Robin Van Persie if he is sold to Barcelona this summer.

There have been rumblings for some time that Sturridge is not happy being left out on the wing at Stamford Bridge, despite being Chelsea’s top scorer this season, while the misfiring Fernando Torres keeps his place as the out-and-out striker in the team.

The Mail reports that Arsenal’s influential chief scout Steve Rowley has put the wheels in motion to effect a surprise switch to the Gunners this summer, but if the 22 year-old is to be given the centre-forward role then that means that Arsenal fully expect Robin Van Persie to refuse to sign his contract extension and will be allowed to rejoin Cesc Fabregas at Barcelona. .......Read the full article here
