Well it isn't really is it - when you look at the names on paper.
It certainly has some major missing parts though.
One player we should be all over is Nigel De Jong who United are interested in.
Yeah, he'd be a great signing. If he's really available and United can get him then there's no reason we shouldn't be getting in there ahead of them.
I'm still fairly optimistic about signing someone of De Jong's ilk. We've been linked with a DM all summer and I'd be surprised if we didn't get one - think that'll be all, though.
Day is still young. Confident will sign a player or maybe two, but we certanly won't be troubling Chelsea for the title.
It seems fourth it is. Wenger's challenged himself to get CL football with Sanogo leading the line when United have Rooney/Falcao and Liverpool are bolstered with Balotelli.
Still think Shad Forsythe will be our most important signing though, which was made early.
Well, if the latest Twitter rumour is to be believed, we have apparently replaced him with....wait for it..Jermaine Defoe!
QPR would be more likely.
Arsene gone to Rome? Hopefully has remembered to delegate responsibility for completing the plethora of new signings that are due for completion today.
A bit annoyed by Wenger's comment yesterday that everyone thinks all you need is a new p!ayer when you aren't playing well. No one I know is saying that at all. The issue of not playing well or not turning up is a separate one. People want us to buy players because we are short and need them. Nothing to do with anything else. We are short of players in critical positions.

We were never going to win the league this season it was always been Ch Chavs and City. Even if AW brought Falcao etc, he'd bench him for Sanongo anyway lol.

Same old with him, maybe if he planned better we'd not be in this mess, its how own fault and where are Ivan and Dick.
True but UTD know they have to they want to get back into CL footie and win the league as well. We on the other hand are a club with no ambition and a manager who is just not good enough anymore. If we don't bring at least a Bony/Benteke then we can forget about the top 4 not even the league.

Disappointing.
I really hope the word "disappointing" isn't going to be in every post of mine this year!
Theo is the longer term answer upfront.
In the meantime, presumably there is a reason we are aren't trying for Bony?
Price, I guess.

Someone has signed him and it's not us!
Meanwhile, all seem quiet on the Arsene front so far..:(
Argh another one bites the dust.
... He's refereeing a charity match there this evening. You couldn't make it up.

...and whilst there, he'll try to bring back Gervinho

I'm not hopeful for this at all

It's a waste of money having creative players like Ozil Cazorla, Wilshere, Ramsey etc. if there is nobody to get on the end of their work.
If we're playing Chambers as the backup centre back, what was the logic in letting Jenks go?
Miquel is also going today according to reports. On his way to Norwich.
If anything Sanogo should go on loan.
Wenger better brush up on his tactics against the top teams, or we'll be toast. I still think we'll finish fourth mind.

Well Ivan and Dick need to be working hard tb.
Welll Canvini and Reus are still there but realistically we could get Bony or Welbeck, so we'll get Zigic loool

If this happens and no one comes in, then Wenger needs to resign tomorrow. Guess its a case of watch this space.
Wemger must enjoyed being Jose's bitch tbh.
The same guy who said we'd be in for a DM and CB? Sky still think we could get something.
