Any thoughts on Mata being out of the Chelsea lineup? Part of a final Chelsea bid for Rooney maybe?

Surprised Joke Kinnear didnt accept the £10m bid and then place a £20m bid for Efan Ekoku

Agree, massive opportunity missed and a bargain price really when all things are considered.
Amazed he went to Southampton, no doubt a bigger team will pay 25 million for him in 18 months

Onto Fellaini and Baines, that bid today was embarrassing.
Everton wont sell for less than 20 million (fellaini) and given the benefits we would have seen in having him in our squad for pre season it is laughable that we didnt buy him when i think we are clearly going to.
I like Baines, he is a brilliant player, but do we really need to be buying a 28 year old LB for 15 million plus, i would prefer us to bid for Luke Shaw from Southampton, much better business IMO
We should have bought Wanyama and a creative midfielder, i would still like to see us buy Modric after he has flopped in spain

So glad I support Luton after reading that.
Dark days m8, got to make loadsa signings after only beating a team fancied for the top 6 4-1 away.
I agree, Saturday was a brilliant result against who i think are a good side, although i do think the scoreline flattered us a little
We have a very strong squad i admit, i just think we are lacking a world class CM, someone who against the top teams can make a difference in midfield. City and Chelsea both have those type of players, we dont, we just have very good solid players

Excellent post this morning on Arseblog about some oddities that have appeared this summer (calling you liverpool, everton and newcastle)
"In a summer in which anger and exasperation have been the overriding emotions, at least from an Arsenal fan’s point of view, a curious new trend has emerged.
Football clubs, and managers, have been reacting to a normal, everyday part of the business in an increasingly irate way. Club X makes a bid to Club Y for player Z. Club Y responds, very publicly, by letting everyone know how furious they are and how derisory they consider the bid. As if somehow, Club X has overstepped the mark by simply trying to buy the player in the first place.
It’s amusing because Club Y, and their manager, has undoubtedly done the same thing at some point. They’ve made a bid to another club to buy a player that perhaps that club doesn’t want to sell. They’ll have sounded out the player, made a judgement on his market value, and then bid a bit lower than that because, well, that’s how it works.
You don’t think Player Z is worth £10m and then bid £20m just to keep the other club happy. You try and buy him as cheaply as you possibly can. It’s business and it’s part and parcel of football. It has been for years. Nobody is whiter than white. Every club and every manager has done the same thing. Sometimes it unsettles the player, sometimes not so much. Sometimes the club reach amicable agreement, sometimes not so much.
But now, with so much focus on transfers, and the minutiae of deals being played out in public, this new fashion has begun to manifest itself. It now appears as if it’s somehow an insult if another club wants to buy your player. And not just an insult that might make you think twice about dealing with them. No. This is an insult that everyone must know about. AT ONCE!"
very fair!

Whike i do agree with most of that, the hypocracy of managers etc... But you can't argue that Arsenal have been trying to take the piss with their offers though.
Its not just Newcastle thinking Cabaye is worth that much, its everyone. There is no way that 10m is going happen. They know that, everyone else knows that, there's making an offer, and then there's taking the piss.
