Are you *bleep* kidding me?

Atleast we signed Flamini. Now we will have a playing 11 against spuds. I think wenger wants to prove that he can beat spuds with kids on the bench.
Today's 28th August. Its official no high-profile signing will be made. The best we can hope for is Cabaye on 2nd September 11:55pm.

I really hope this is a made up bullshit, what a disgrace. I rather play with 10 men than have this donkey back at Arsenal and Wenger paying him 75k a week.

[abirking]

75000 pounds for Flamini.If that is the case, I would rather have zelazam playing against spuds. Darren Dein fcuking us over again.

anyone followed him at Milan...?
getting contradictory opinions about him.. some are saying he was absolutely s*** and past it.. some saying he was quite impressive in many of the matches...

[abirking]

From the few Milan games I have seen, Flamini was quite impressive, sitting on the bench and drinking gatorade.

Wenger “I don’t sign players that are not the quality we need” so flamini and sanogo are?

Free is top quality

[JGUNZ]

Actually free and cheap are arsenal DNA

[EL Patron]

Flamoney should be paying us to play ffs

[VendettaRed07]

YES. A SIGNING. FINALLY

[urbaNRoots]

If I'm honest I'm now happy we're signing Flamini, hopefully on a 2 year contract nothing more. Julio Cesar on a similar contract and a cheap-ish striker as backup for Giroud aswell - that should keep us in the top 4.

Rest of the money should be saved for our new manager in 2014.

[Raptorgunner]

A 3 year contract of 75k per week is about 12.6 million in total not including the signing on fee, agent fee’s and other bonuses such as appearance bonuses and performance bonuses and so on.

Free? I dont think so.

I'd be happy to see £10m spent on a warm body at this point

Net Spend Summer 2013:
1. Man City £80.4m
2. Chelsea £59.5m
3. Soton £35.5m
4. Sp*rs £34.5m
5. Cardiff £30m


20. Arsenal -£10m

Wenger will continue this transfer policy then Cazorla and koscielny will leave next season.. We are showing 0 interest in winning any trophy this year and as usual Wenger will brag about how he has made CL for the past 16 years.

[6unner]

Really getting depressing watching this these days. Even though I kind of like Flamini I just do not see him as really helping us win silverware. I see the club currently being less interested in doing what they need for silverware and more interested in preserving the current revenue stream. With the only way of possibly changing this being consistently empty seats at the Emirates.

[Jay29]

@GeoffArsenal: Not what you wanted but Matthieu Flamini has resigned for Arsenal.

That's defensive cover sorted, then. Sagna will cover centre back and Flamini will cover right back.

Now we need to get in at least one attacker, be it a winger or striker, and we'll have a squad that might be able consolidate our top four status.

Obviously not where we want to be but let's face it, it's as good as we're going to get with five days to go.

[urbaNRoots]

"We will only sign top top top quality, players who are better than what we have"

*signs Flamini*

yeah sure...

[Raptorgunner]

Flamini will be a waste like Squillaci was. It is only a case of a French helping another French to earn some money.

Theo Walcott: 'Arsenal should be challenging for title'

"For a club like this, with the stadium, the support that we have - we have to be that," Walcott told ESPN.

"We don't want to be [just] challenging for that fourth spot anymore. We want to challenge for the Premier League and that's our main goal.

"We know Arsenal's a massive club and where we need to be. What we need to do is get to the next level and compete a little bit more -- not just getting into the Champions League. The next step is to compete."

[Arsenalfaithfull]

Flamini and Squillachi are not the same type of players. Come on man , even you know this. I will guarantee you he will be a help against Spurs.

In the end when the Gunners win because of a Flam long range stunners (remember those)... you kids will be sorry. And I will be like "I told ya"
