So we have our first bit of significant cash coming in as Krystian Bielik becomes a Derby player for around £10million, as well as Takuma Asano heading off to Partizan Belgrade for £1million, meaning that we made a £2.5million loss on a player who essentially went out on loan for the whole of his Arsenal [...]
So it appears the William Saliba deal from St Etienne is reaching its final conclusions and I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say "thank gawd". It's dragged on far too much with St Etienne insistent on that loan for an additional season. That's an interesting one I have to say from [...]
So we've all been Ornsteined after he did his bit to whip up the Arsenal fan base yesterday by giving a lowdown on Arsenal's dealings this summer and whilst it included a little on the potential 'incomings' it was the speculated 'outgoings' that had me happier after I'd read what he had to say. Firstly [...]
I don't really know what to make of all the Lucas Torreira nonsense, so instead I think I'll ignore it, because until we hear from more credible sources about the potential move, or until we hear about credible offers (a two year loan deal and €38million fee at the end is, frankly, an abomination of [...]

Morning folks and welcome to another Monday. It's a William Saliba shaped one by the sounds of it and supposedly we are in for him and have finally come to an agreement with his representatives, with just the small matter of St Etienne needing to agree the fee, so in other words the hardest bit [...]
Monday came and went with players returning to training and, unlike in places like Southampton where the odd chap doesn't show for his first day back with his current club, everyone at Arsenal came back who was supposed to come back. No Szczesny stuck in a wishing well, no Wilshere falling in to the Grand [...]
It appears I must have some sort of political sway at Arsenal HQ, because after my plea for the Bielik deal to be announced, low and behold the young fella turns up on the official site as a confirmed signing. I do find it interesting that young plays - boys really - that come from [...]
Morning you lot, I hope you're enjoying your Wednesday and are just happy that we're slowly but surely making our way through this working week. All's still quiet on the Western front, which means no signings announced, not even a 17-year-old who the club has confirmed has had a medical. I mean what's going on [...]
So it seems the deal to bring Krystian Bielik to Arsenal is all but completed and by some stage this weekend we'll possibly get confirmation of it. Although we all know that Arsenal like to tease us by eeking out a transfer announcement, so don't be surprised if it doesn't happen until the middle of [...]
