Nothing happening Arsenal wise really.
There’s talk of a transfer battle between us and Liverpool for the signing of Michael Ballack, but after last season’s Kewell extravaganza I’m not even going to bother. The ‘poo need to make some signings after Steven ‘Euro2000’ Gerrard pledged his future to the club, and apparently Roman Abramovich went mental with slaphead Peter Kenyon after the ‘life long red®’ assured him the Liverpool captain would be joining Chelsea. Chelsea had let their interest in pint sized Portuzilian Deco cool because they were so convinced Gerrard would be joining, and he’s now going to sign for Barcelona any day. Kenyon is the man who fucked up the Ronaldinho to Man United transfer so late last summer that they were actually printing thousands of shirts with the goofy genius’ name on them. Definitely worth the £4m a year they’re paying him to be one of the most hated men in football.
David Trezeguet has been long rumoured to be an AW target, but he shows his class here (minging, even if it is directed at the new Spurs boss).
There’s little news coming out of THOF though, but the first batch of players are due back for the start of pre-season training next week so we should start getting some bits and pieces then. Oh, wait. Here it is. The news we’ve all been waiting for. Stathis Tavlaridis has officially joined Lille.
Sorry. Till tomorrow then.
