There have been some suggestions in recent days that Alex Song is being lined up as a possible summer signing for Arsenal and now his footballing relative, Rigobert Song, has come out and spoken about Alex’s issue. “Barcelona put so much effort into signing him last summer, and Alex turned down many great teams in order to sign with them,” he said. “But this season he has only been a…

Will Arsenal Finally sign Yann M’Vila?
Yes Arsenal fans, we are once again being linked with Yann M’Vila, a player we were linked to almost the whole summer last year and now the window has reopened the rumours are back! However this time there is more reason to believe them. Ligue 1 club Rennes have confirmed that Yann M’Vila has asked to leave the club. On the matter, Yann M’Vila said; “The club have received offers.…
Can Arsenal still win the Premier League?
After a horrendous start to last season, with four defeats and sixteen goals conceded in the opening seven league games, this season started off so much better and with increased optimism. The arrival of Steve Bould has significantly improved the team’s defensive organization, with an impressive partnership developing between Vermaelen and Mertesacker. Ironically, Arsene Wenger’s decision to pair Vermaelen and Koscielny against Chelsea proved to be a costly mistake, with…
Wenger praises Arsenal fluidity-who needs RvP?
Arsenal have long been considered as the best passing team in the Premier league but were also seen as a little lightweight in winning the ball back or when playing against tougher opposition. The 49 goals we conceded in the Premier league last season were a painful reminder of this problem. Only Robin van Persie’s goals allowed us to overcome this weakness and finish third, thereby qualifying for the champion’s…
Will Sagna really leave Arsenal? Wenger thinks not
Wenger has rubbished speculations about Sagna’s future. Bacary Sagna, who is currently spending time on the sidelines due to injury, has recently spoken out about the club’s transfer policy. He said that, although he expected Robin van Persie to leave, the departure of Alex Song was a surprise to him. The French international has pointed out the fact that Nasri and Clichy have won trophies after leaving so their decision…
Do Arsenal have Song’s replacement?
Fan favourite Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has said that the club must fill the space by Alex Song and the Englishman feels he could do it himself. Alex Song’s transfer to Barcelona was made official earlier this week and the fans realise that the club have lost yet another important player. Chamberlain said; “They are big shoes to fill but you’ve got that anywhere at Arsenal. In any position you’ve got a…
Biglia or M’Vila for Arsenal?
Arsene Wenger has admitted that he “might” bring in a new signing or two after selling two of Arsenal’s best players from last season in under a week. The smart money is on a direct replacement for Alex Song, a defensive midfielder. The Turkish international Nuri Sahin is very likely to come to Arsenal for the season on loan, but I still expect Wenger to sign somebody to replace Song…
Arsenal face fan’s backlash
As soon as Arsene Wenger mentioned the possibility of Alex Song moving to Barcelona, I should have mortgaged my house and put everything I had on the deal going through. I just hope that the other part of his statement, that Nuri Sahin could come on loan from Real Madrid for a year, also comes true. This could well have been Wenger’s masterplan all along. Sell a player who has…
