missed him decent squad player and gets the club

better than osman. he always popped up with a good goal.

i don't think anybody's noticed southall appears twice. would be great to have him as 1st and 2nd choice keeper.

Would love to see either Konoplyenka or Ayew signed up cheap or on pre contact agreements but there's bound to be a lot of competition for their signatures. Another winger that is out of contract this summer is Balazs Dzsudzsak from Dinamo Moscow, we were linked with him earlier this year, he's got 58 caps for Hungary so I guess @Hungariansupport @Hungariansupporter will know all about him?

You missed Kendall and Harvey as well, two thirds of the holy trinity, I never saw them play but I'm sure a few of the older Blues would argue for their inclusion.

Ondrej Duda http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ondrej-duda/profil/spieler/232418

Gets a brief mention in an article in today's Daily Mail about another Legia player Krystian Bielik.

"Arsenal's Premier League rivals Everton have also watched Bielik but are focusing their attention on his older teammate midfielder Ondrej Duda.

The 20-year-old Slovakia international has been watched by Roberto Martinez's trusted chief scout Kevin Reeves and has scored five goals this season."

I'd love us to try and do a bit more of what West Ham, Swansea and Southampton have done which is take gambles on good players from poorer standards of league. When Martinez was at Wigan he did a lot of that and I think he could really take advantage of a few lower ranked leagues where players would jump at the chance to play in the Premier League. I'm thinking moves similar to Sakho, Montero, Valencia, Tadic, Mane this season for example. Also like the Besic deal, take a gamble on some good young talent from those leagues who clearly has the potential to do it in England. Someone like Kampl or Embolo.

Question is how long they'll do it for. They could all be considered bang average by May.

While he is on Merseyside Everton are sure to run the rule over him again – word is that Samuel Eto’o has been speaking very highly of Embolo while also lobbying for the player to pledge his future to Cameroon rather than Switzerland.

If your Embolo and Sammy Eto'o is watching, then surely you must listen to the man many would consider one of the greatest African players of all time ? I know if i was professional and Zidane told me to move somewere then i wouldnt hesitate, unless it was the dark side.

Agree what people have said there are some great players who we could sign on pre contracts or maybe sign on the cheap like mcgeady. Delph, ayew, konoplyenka, Reid which would improve are squad, i would love us to go for cabaye with rumours saying he could be available for loan from psg

Would love him here. Looks a fantastic prospect.

From what i've seen of him I'd definitely want him here too - lets hope Eto'o can have a word in his ear!

Yeah, Eto'o would do him the world of good in his development here aswell.

Also on Arsenal’s shopping list is West Ham’s Winston Reid. He doesn’t want to sign a new contract at Upton Park and is apparently willing to leave a title-chasing club for one embroiled in a mid-table scrap. Everton andLiverpool are also sniffing around and West Ham, who aren’t hopeful of keeping Reid, are planning to replace the defender by signing Marseille’sNicolas N’Koulou.

http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/footb...rpool-arsenal-transfer-target-winston-4771013
Hammers defender Reid, a key figure in their remarkable start to the campaign, wants £60,000 a week and a £1million signing-on fee.

They are the figures being quoted to interested clubs and they are likely to price West Ham out of keeping the 26-year-old, who is out of contract next summer.

Here he comes.
