Ed, is it true Arsenal interest in Mandzukic?
{Ed001's Note - not that I am aware of.}
1.) 28 Jul 2016 16:27:11
Hope you are right ed, I would have loved him 3 or 4 years ago but what I have seen of him recently, he's on the decline.
2.) 28 Jul 2016 16:39:40
whats your thoughts on bony?
{Ed001's Note - me? Decent player, can play a number of roles, but clearly struggles with pressure so I would avoid.}
3.) 28 Jul 2016 16:51:09
I know youve been asked this plenty of occasions but what do you think about the whole lacazette situation?
Do you see us making an improved offer or isit another lost cause, because surely transfer policy or not how can wenger, the board or anyone justify that he is not worth £40 million, Fair enough the quality of the french league is not the best but how about la liga, serie A and bundesliga compared to the EPL.
{Ed001's Note - Aulas will only sell to the Prem for a bid massively over the valuation. Wenger will never go for that.}
4.) 28 Jul 2016 17:08:20
Thanks ED.
{Ed001's Note - welcome mate.}
5.) 28 Jul 2016 17:28:43
Xhaka for a desperation type signing, he is far better than most mentioned. I think he would suit us better than some and not as much as others. The guy could be a beast.
6.) 28 Jul 2016 18:32:06
Some betting sites have put us favourite for Lukaku now, thought all that talk died down. But again, £50mil plus price quoted, just can't see Wenger buying anyone personally :/.
7.) 28 Jul 2016 18:35:20
We do have some interest in him but there's other targets before him. Asked ed002 earlier on European page.
31 May 2016 16:55:02
Ed, any update news about CB and STRIKER?
{Ed025's Note - not at the moment andy..
1.) 31 May 2016 18:41:57
Marotta confirmed that Morata has been bought back by Real. That's a good sign for now.
18 May 2016 14:21:54
Ed hows about Riccardo Sapponara from Empoli? Is true we are closing to seal him?
{Ed025's Note - not that i have heard and
14 May 2016 16:36:15
Ed. I heard that Arsenal interest in Corentin Tolisso from olympic Lyon
And duo from Shaktar Donestk. Taison qnd Wellington.
Is it true?
How's good are they?
12 May 2016 09:05:18
Ed, i heard that Frank de Boer leaving Ajax.
Is he will be the new manager for Arsenal?
{Ed001's Note - I have not heard anything of that, I was told he believes he will be pitching for the Everton job and thinks he will be appointed. Whether that is bluster on his part or not, I could not tell you, as he did leave Ajax under a cloud after failing.}
1.) 12 May 2016 10:08:38
The Dutch are very self confident if nothing else, I'm sure de Boer is above himself.
{Ed002's Note - Still sharing the pig ignorance then.}
2.) 13 May 2016 02:46:45
What a stupid comment.
Andy Andy, like Ed001, I've read that De Boer is in the running for the vacant Everton position. His agent is quoted as saying he would definitely be interested in the job.
{Ed001's Note - there is also Inter available.}
3.) 12 May 2016 21:26:57
In not sure if you mean me being ignorant Ed but not my intention, think I remember de boer touting himself for a job in England quite publicly in the past, could be wrong.
{Ed002's Note - How well do you know de Boer? Presumably very well to be making such statements about him. May experience of him is totally different.}
4.) 14 May 2016 12:33:22
Hi Ed sorry just seen this, no I don't know him, hands up it was a wayward comment. I'm not one for normally sharing pig ignorance, I'm hurt, I thought we was tight Ed 😢😉.

Ed, Who is Jeremy Mathiue?
Is he good enough for us? I've never heard him before.
{Ed001's Note - Barca defender, he is ok, can play centre back or left back but picks up quite a few injuries. More of a centre half than full back now as his legs are going.}
03 Jul 2016 13:59:37
Ed, seriously Asano is the Answer for Striker position?
1.) 03 Jul 2016 15:32:00
Andy I know you're question was directed at the Eds but mate he's not supposed to be the answer to our immediate striking problem as was Bielik never going to walk straight into the team as our DM they are both for the but people get over excited about everyone we sign which I guess is down to lack things to get excited about.
2.) 03 Jul 2016 16:20:39
I can see why your fans go mad at the arsenal board, Utd Chelsea, city, Liverpool are buying top quality and your owners go for the cheap and make money deals, even spurs owners are in Italy right now talking to icardi for 38 million, you are one of the richest clubs in England but must also be one of tightest clubs also.
3.) 03 Jul 2016 17:48:45
Guys. It's early days yet and people are blowing their nut like the windows closed. If we don't buy serious players in this window than blow as much as you like! God knows what's happening but I have a list of players in my head that would satisfy me and I'm sure most people have players in mind. Part of a managers job in my opinion is to satisfy its fan base and although buying these players could prove costly and potentially a complete waste of money (Torres, veron) the fans would be happy and at worse curse bad luck instead of turning against the club and each other. Wenger needs to think long and hard and I'm sure he is. He also wants to think about having some success in his last year and not go out on a whimper. If he or anyone else in the club think that the squad as is can win the league let alone the CL then they are seriously deluded.
4.) 03 Jul 2016 18:18:33
21 goals in 56 games in the Japanese league for the 21 year old
Yep he sure will set the PL alight
Wenger any reason do you think why no one from Europe had signed him? Oh yes he is very average .
If he was any good he would already be playing in Europe .
5.) 03 Jul 2016 18:47:33
I bet everyone thought the same when we signed Kolo, Anelka etc for peanuts or when Leicester City signed Riyad Mahrez from French second-tier side Le Havre.
I am not saying the guys a star but Wenger has said he is one for the future - don't let Raver wind you up,
We complain that other teams find gems then we moan when we try.
Let's see how the window goes before we hang Wenger.
6.) 03 Jul 2016 19:19:18
Yeah the assano deal doesn't bother me! We can't just only buy for the now we must maintain bringing youth in. And I was replying to the Arsenal boys above. 99% of the time I ignore raver.
7.) 03 Jul 2016 19:21:13
The fact that the guy says he was massively surprised shows his expectations were quite low
I suspect very few top teams were interested in him.
8.) 03 Jul 2016 19:59:27
Sy I'm not winding up, who would you prefer assano or mane, ibrahimovic, batsayshi nolito, mikahtariyan that's what the other clubs are buying mate.
9.) 03 Jul 2016 20:31:16
Raver does make a fair point.
10.) 03 Jul 2016 20:31:53
Sorry,
Thst should have said pint :-)
11.) 03 Jul 2016 21:01:42
Sanogo surely bringing in youth is 17 - 20 this guy is 21 and I expect someone to be showing huge promise and turning heads .
And let's be fair 'if' Wenger leaves how do you know what the new manager will think of this 'boy' lol
Of course Wenger could well still be here in 3 years time so it won't be an issue.
24 Jun 2016 15:44:57
Tell me about Islam Slimani from Sporting Lisbon. I heard that Arsenal interest to buy him.
1.) 24 Jun 2016 18:27:28
Decent record, 56 in 80 games.
Algerian International.
80% certain to join us.
2.) 24 Jun 2016 18:53:33
I think he is pretty good. He had a great world cup with Algeria and has scored a fair share of goals since then for Sporting. He is a tall powerful striker with heading as his best asset but don't let that fool you as he is pretty fast and has decent technique. He might be an upgrade to Giroud due to his pace but is not a different type of striker what the fans are asking for at the moment.
3.) 24 Jun 2016 19:42:47
Dags does that mean he's 100% not coming then, it usually does. I think if we go into the last day of the tranfer window without a striker, he may be the chosen one then, the golden child, the saviour.
4.) 24 Jun 2016 19:49:07
Absolutely Bgd.
Steve, typical Arsenal upfront signing.
Not a major striker, but it's all we can get.
5.) 25 Jun 2016 15:49:20
I thought the Golden Child was from Tibet, not Algeria :-/.
05 Jun 2016 15:26:02
Ed, if we get Mikhtaryan. Ozil will out?
1.) 05 Jun 2016 17:44:10
I don't think so Andy, for me I think ozil is just a laid back kinda fella and is just letting speculation be just that n keeping his head on the euro's.
I think if there is a shock sale from the club it will be Santi : (
Which would be a massive loss
If santi does leave I know wenger is an admirer of Calhanoglu. he'd soften the blow abit
The fella your on about is Chelsea bound anyway isn't he?
2.) 05 Jun 2016 19:29:20
Apparently we are ahead of Chelsea in (possibly) signing Mkhitaryan.
Would love him at Arsenal. Absolute top quality player.
3.) 05 Jun 2016 19:43:34
That would be a dam fine signing to go with the rest.
4.) 05 Jun 2016 20:04:59
Keeping Ozil and Sanchez is massive if we're to mount a challenge next season, we need to fix our weaknesses not simply swap one for another.
19 May 2016 15:45:54
Are we failed with Xhaka?
1.) 19 May 2016 23:12:50
He's in London this evening.
2.) 19 May 2016 23:43:53
Let's hope it's a sign of the club doing their business early for a change, definitely don't want a repeat of 2011!
3.) 20 May 2016 00:51:02
It would be an awesome coup, he ticks every box.
4.) 20 May 2016 07:51:46
Hope it gets done quickly. Would be surprised if not tho. On top of my head podolski, alexis, Cech, elneny. They all took so long to complete didn't they?
21 Aug 2016 14:25:48
Well Asano destiny will be like Miyaichi.
09 Jul 2016 11:34:59
Again and Again it's just rumours.
Fighting for UEFA CUP position will be good idea for next season.
02 May 2016 17:46:57
The one from egypt. He can play in left wing and right wing.
{Ed001's Note - the kid Sobhi do you mean? He is just 18 so I know little about him but I will ask around for you, there are a few people I know who might be able to find out some info for me.}
02 May 2016 16:08:06
Thanks ed.
