Arsenal WON’T sell to Man Utd but WILL fight them for Hummels!

This entry was posted in Arsenal News, Arsenal NewsNow, Arsenal rumours, Arsenal Transfer News, Premier league news and tagged , , on by .

It seems like things are really changing for Arsene Wenger and Arsenal these days. The trophy drought is finally over and the club are now releasing decent sums of money for the manager to spend on players. Not only does that mean that Wenger has been able to buy top class players like Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil, but it means that he is not forced to sell his best players either. .......Read the full article here

Will Sanchez’ late arrival affect his start for Arsenal?

This entry was posted in Arsenal News, Arsenal NewsNow, Arsenal opinion and tagged , , on by .

Arsene Wenger and the Arsenal players are clocking up the miles at the minute. The Gunners flew straight back from America after the disappointing defeat by New York Red Bulls in a pre-season friendly, and they will be flying out of London again today, heading to Austria for a four day training camp.

Arsenal fans will be hoping to see more from their heroes in the two Emirates Cup games this weekend, against Benfica and Monaco, so this training camp should be very useful, especially as Wenger will have some more of his players back to work with. .......Read the full article here

Barca to help Arsenal keep Vermaelen from Man United transfer!

This entry was posted in Arsenal News, Arsenal NewsNow, Arsenal rumours, Arsenal Transfer News and tagged , on by .

It has been on the cards all summer, and it still looks like Arsenal are set to say goodbye to yet another club captain. After seeing Cesc Fabregas join Barcelona and Robin van Persie head to Manchester United, losing our Belgian defender Thomas Vermaelen may not leave quite such a hole in the Arsenal team, but it is still far from ideal. .......Read the full article here

WOW! Messi to Arsenal transfer not a pipe dream after all?

This entry was posted in Arsenal News, Arsenal NewsNow, Arsenal rumours, Arsenal Transfer News and tagged , , on by .

I got a lot of stick from some Arsenal fans after writing an article last year about the Barcelona and Argentina star Lionel Messi possibly coming to play for Arsenal. Now I am not saying that I was right, because I wrote the story as an April Fool’s Day piece, but amazingly, The Express are now reporting that arguably the best player to ever lace up a pair of football boots was actually contemplating becoming a Gunner. .......Read the full article here

Rodgers reveals reason (he reckons) for Sanchez choosing Arsenal

This entry was posted in Arsenal News, Arsenal NewsNow, Arsenal rumours, Arsenal Transfer News and tagged , , on by .

Last summer definitely saw Liverpool get one over on Arsenal, with Arsene Wenger making the infamous bid for Luis Suarez of one pound over £40 million. That may or may not have triggered a release clause in the cannibalistic Uruguayan striker’s contract, but they stood firm and used the opportunity to take the mickey and show Arsenal plenty of disrespect along the way. .......Read the full article here

Ozil and Wenger had BIG influence on Sanchez choosing Arsenal

This entry was posted in Arsenal News, Arsenal NewsNow, Arsenal opinion, Arsenal Transfer News, Premier league news and tagged , on by .

When it became clear that our new signing Alexis Sanchez had made Arsenal his choice, despite interest from the Italian champions Juventus and some of our big rivals in the Premier League, the arrogance of the Liverpool fans rose to the surface. They hit out at the Chilean and us via social media, accusing him of choosing the London lifestyle over football glory by coming to Arsenal, a club with no history and ambition, according to the red scousers. .......Read the full article here

It’s PUMA day for Arsenal but Sanchez transfer may NOT go through!

This entry was posted in Arsenal News, Arsenal NewsNow, Arsenal rumours, Arsenal Transfer News and tagged , on by .

With the launch of the new Arsenal kit and other training gear and merchandise designed by the club’s new commercial partners NIKE later today, Arsenal fans are expecting it to be accompanied by the announcement of some new players to strengthen our hunt for another trophy.

The arrival of Alexis Sanchez from Barcelona seems to be the worst kept transfer secret in the world, but now it seems that the Chile international might not be one of the new Gunners unveiled today after all. The Daily Express are reporting that the deal is being held up because of the ongoing negotiations between his Catalan club and our Premier League rivals over the sale of Gnasher, or Luis Suarez as he is sometimes known. .......Read the full article here

Here’s why Arsenal pulled out the stops to get Sanchez…

It looks like the Arsenal comeback from the dark days of selling some of our best players; like Ashley Cole, Cesc Fabregas, Samir Nasri and Robin van Persie, is well on the way. After Arsene Wenger smashed the club transfer record for Mesut Ozil last summer, it looks like the Frenchman is set to spend even more this summer, with the marquee signing being another La Liga star, this time from Barcelona. .......Read the full article here

CONFIRMED! Alexis Sanchez to sign for Arsenal today!

This entry was posted in Arsenal News, Arsenal NewsNow, Arsenal Transfer News, Premier league news and tagged , on by .

Arsene Wenger himself has confirmed that Alexis Sanchez is on the verge of putting pen to paper on a contract with Arsenal Football Club. This is the news that we have been expecting and waiting for, but it is good to hear some official confirmation, especially after last summer, when we all expected the Gunners to announce the signing of the Argentina striker Gonzalo Higuain from Real Madrid, only to see him sign for Napoli in Serie A. .......Read the full article here

Liverpool fans attack Sanchez over Arsenal transfer!

This entry was posted in Arsenal News, Arsenal NewsNow, Arsenal Transfer News, Premier league news and tagged , on by .

Many of the Arsenal transfer rumours in recent days have involved the Barcelona forward Alexis Sanchez, with it becoming increasingly likely that the likes of Liverpool, Man United and Juventus are falling behind in the race to sign the Chile international.

In fact, today, most of the media in England, Spain and Italy are reporting the transfer as almost a done deal, including a Talksport report from Liverpool based journalist James Pearce, who says that the Anfield club have thrown in the towel and accepted defeat in their pursuit of the talented 25-year old. .......Read the full article here

Liverpool take final crack at beating Arsenal to Sanchez

This entry was posted in Arsenal News, Arsenal NewsNow, Arsenal rumours, Arsenal Transfer News and tagged , on by .

I don’t think the Gooners need to be too worried about the latest piece of Arsenal transfer news concerning the Barcelona star Alexis Sanchez. If the rumours about the Gunners offering the 25-year old Chilean a long term contract on around £130,000 a week are true, that is.

Because the Metro has claimed that our Premier League rivals Liverpool have made one final attempt to beat us to the punch by offering Sanchez an even bigger salary of £150,000 a week. This smacks of desperation to me, as the player has apparently chosen Arsenal for other reasons that the money. .......Read the full article here

Sanchez to Arsenal transfer at risk from Man United AND City!!

This entry was posted in Arsenal News, Arsenal NewsNow, Arsenal Transfer News and tagged , on by .

I wish that Arsene Wenger would hurry up and seal the deal to bring Alexis Sanchez to Arsenal, because the longer the talks go on without a concrete resolution, the more chance there is of it turning into another Gonzalo Higuain situation. And media reports suggest that both of our Premier League rivals from Manchester could be the ones to leave Arsenal empty handed.

If it is the matter of a fee, with Wenger trying to squeeze an extra few million for Arsenal out of the deal, it could all go wrong, especially now that the Daily Star is reporting that Man City are interested in the Barcelona and Chile striker. And they are willing to go as high as £40 million for him. .......Read the full article here
