So finally the Nuri Sahin saga has come to an end.He has chosen Liverpool over Arsenal.Yet another Arsenal target goes somewhere else.Mata,Hazard,Niang,Sahin and the list goes on.
The transfer season has been frustrating fans as usual.Top players leaving and the club missing out on potential targets.Agreed Liverpool got robbed in the deal but they do have a hell of a player now.Arsene claims that Arsenal aren't looking for a player like him and that we need a defensive midfielder to fill the void that has been created by Song's departure.Well if din't need him we should not have been bidding for him.It is so clear he is just trying to save face.We were in the driving seat to sign him but our board just doesn't want to spend.They prefer to lose out on a player rather than shell out some more money.Yes we wanted to make an arrangement that would allow us to sign him permanently after the loan spell.You cannot expect Real Madrid to agree to that unless you present them with a deal that cannot be denied which you won't see happen from this board.
It was only 3-4 days ago that I had written the article mentioning Sahin was on his way to Arsenal but here I am with this one stating he has signed for Liverpool.Well actually this deal occurred 3 days ago but couldn't write due to some issues.This is how transfer dealings done over here.1 day you say something and the next day you look like a complete idiot.Even you all would agree we are lacking in almost every department.We need a left back for reserve,a defensive midfielder and a striker with premier league experience.I know we have two good strikers in Podolski and Giroud but they will take to adjust since they come from Bundesliga and Ligue 1 respectively which are much slower than Premier League.Almost every big team has 3 or 4 strikers so that they are not strikerless in case of injuries.We have only 2(not considering Bendtner and Chamakh) who are not firing right now.So should we be satisfied with the results until they start firing.By then we would be in the bottom half I guess.I am a very frustrated with the way things are done over here.When we bought the 3 players they said it was to strengthen the squad and after a few days they become replacements of our top players.
Arsene Wenger and the board I don't know how seem very satisfied with the team and are giving a false hope to us that this team can easily challenge for the title.Well guess what we can't.Not with this team.Agreed we are defensively very solid now that Steve Bould has done a fantastic job but what about attack?You don't know when Rosicky and Wilshere will return and until then everything will be over.Title will be out of reach then.I cannot believe what the board is doing.They have sold yet another future star,Henri Lansbury.We believe in promoting young talent and creating them into stars rather than buying star players.Of course we are not doing the latter but we are not doing the earlier as well.Selling all your best players and not buying proper replacements then how do you expect to win anything?
Arsenal speedster Theo Walcott who was going to pen a new deal has now rejected one.Even he has gone frustrated and is open to transfer setting Manchester City and Liverpool on high alert.He has been given 48 hours to decide his future.And I am pretty sure that he is on his way out.We have been linked with Cabaye,M'vila and Afellay but trust me with the pace the board has been carrying out talks its unlikely we will see any of them in Arsenal red and White.One more rumour that has been surfacing is that Cesc Fabregas is on his way back to Emirates.This sounds hilarious and I fail to find any truth in this as I don't think Barcelona are going to let one of the best midfielders in the world who is just 25.Check out the link below for details.
Its Wednesday the deadline is on Friday.Just 3 days remaining.All i can hope is to see atleast Walcott stays and we bring one more player.Else I see this season as a disaster for us.
