09.21 – Today’s stories will mostly be accompanied by a tabloid style headline, mostly.
VIEIRA’S TALKING OUT OF HIS ARSENAL – “I read that Manchester United asked about me during the summer. I may go to United or I may not”
Arseblog response – ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. One quote siezed upon, the rest conveniently ignored.
NOT SO GRIM FOR GILLES AS HE GRABS STRASBOURG TRIAL – curly haired former midfield genius Gilles Grimandi has emerged from the football wilderness with a trial at French side Strasbourg. He’s been out of the game a lot longer than he probably expected when he left Arsenal, and his spell in the MLS was a total wash-out. Allez Gilles, we wish you luck.
LIMPING LAUREN LASHES LIONS – right back Lauren says he doesn’t miss international football at all, and says the break has allowed him to get over a couple of knocks he picked up. “I have been suffering from knee and ankle problems so now I have time to recover and prepare myself for the next Arsenal game.”
GIL-HURTO – our Brazilian midfielder misses the Portsmouth game, having spent most of the week flying around the world to play for his country. Kolo Toure is in contention though, despite only arriving back today from his itnernational duties. AW says of the squad for Saturday “Everybody has returned in good shape. They are tired but they are not injured.”
BARCA BITCH ABOUT CESC NOT SO FAB FOR GUNNERS – Barcelona’s continued moaning about Arsenal signing Cesc Fabregas is getting seriously boring now. They should spend some time trying to sort out their €120m debt and not wasting their money on plane tickets to London. As far as I’m aware, Arsenal don’t have to pay a penny for this kid, but may makes some kind of gesture like we did to PSG when we nabbed Anelka the same way.
HALLS WELL THAT ENDS…er….NOT WELL – Barry Fry won’t be signing Arsenal midfielder John Halls after he played a reserve game for QPR and got himself injured.
I’m kind of bored of those now. I see Teddy Sheringham won player of the month. Not that I care, it’s just another excuse to use this link whenever I say Teddy Sheringham. I’ll be humming that tune all day.
Dooo doooo doo dooo-dooo doooo, dooo, doo, doooo dooo-doooo dooo.
