We may be three games in but don't forget the media today have been stating what Harry was saying on MOTD about AVB.

I will give AVB till Xmas, and IF we are in the bottom half of the table, l can see Levy looking for a new boss, especially after all the money he has spent.

Frankly he is probably worth only Â£4 million one suspects now.

Raul Meireles moves to Fenerbahce. Was you pleased to see him leave Liverpool Den?

No l was actually disappointed Liverpool let him go but alas that was one in a catalogue of transfer errors in the last couple of seasons.

Rosicky should be back soon followed by Jack then it'll be literally January. Wenger did say if he can't do further signings window just gone he'll do it in December

January

No surprise here as Arsenal chairman Peter Hill-Wood has admitted the club "can't compete" in the transfer market with their Barclays Premier League top-four rivals.

heres the source/full write up - http://www.standard.co.uk/sport/foot...s-8104267.html

firstly PHW and Arsenal are yet again missing the point. i as well as many other fans personally have never said sign 50odd mil each players. apart from Falcao who is a dream signing realistically we have always said add players of under 20mil into the mix but that was hampered because Wenger instead banged out mega contracts to youth and players who dont deserve an increase. judgement has declined in that area. i understand by handing youth a decent deal they should man up and develope but players like Bendtner who just take the pee then act as a bad apple among the good apples screws things. furthermore when management rarely put players in their place doesnt help matters.. past! present is Bould wont take it so change is certainly underway. the payroll needs sorting out, Ivan said there is change on the way in that area and this summer window just gone proves Arsenal are changing still theres more work to be done.

it annoys me when i hear PHW speak or anyone at Arsenal about not being able to sign 50mil players. this isnt required but adding decent quality is. theres 2 things wrong. Arsenal do not see that players out in the world better than we have and secondly Arsenal is clearly about having a few quality signings surrounded by upcomers. not all those upcomers are good enough or will be and should be swapped for players that would cost under 15-20mil that would really add something to our fight. when we brought Nasri I was begging for Arsenal to coupe Ben Arfa too but his attitude was always spoken of.. this when Arsenal backed Bendtner throughout his foolish behaviour. work that one out! window just gone.. I wish we could have done a double swoop at Malaga.. Cazorla and Isco.

I do think now things will change with Bould in. if Bould manages to talk Wenger into adding that 1 or 2 player(s) to get us lifting silverware then clearly Wengers been left to wonder heedlessly while everyone else just sits back, watches then have the nerve to slate fans.. Peter Hill-Wood!!! Peter clearly says as we know that the board dont say anything to Wenger. he goes on to say Deins departure hasnt impacted anything.. is he having a laugh! whats interesting though is PHW speaks of Stan now as the main man which he is ofcourse. before it wasnt like that.

anyway we can compete but like PHW says we have to do it in another way. its possible not impossible! it just takes vision and bottle. this doesnt mean going into debt!!

theres a good amount spoken about by PHW in the above link and just confirms what us fans have come to know and debate about.

Theo wants 100oddk. Arsenal wont give it. and rightly so.

He is worth a lot less than that, apparently

It seems more and more players seem unhappy with life at the Emirates as Sagna's vents his Arsenal frustration following on from other players who vented their frustration before him.

Saw this great fact on twitter...

Two. Arsenal have won as many Premier League games in 2012 at Anfield as Liverpool
