So 2 days left in the transfer window, yet we are yet to see any type of marquee signing, or in fact any signing to encourage the fans or team since the arrival of Gervinho.
Transfer Speculation:
Yossi Benayoun - Chelsea
The central attacking midfielder who is like Luka Modric, could prove to be a shrewd move, but Yossi has tonnes of Premier League experience at the highest level for Liverpool and albeit not so much at Chelsea. He's creative and doesn't get much playing time at the Blues. May be some truth to this.
Andres Santos - Fenerbahce
This is one Brazilian with flair, unlike Denilson. He has skill in abundance and the video below says it all. Apparantly we've struck a deal for this attackign elft back from Fenerbahce for £6.2 million. The left winger turned left back is a Brazilian International and plays for the biggest club in Turkey. However how is his defensive ability compared to his attacking. If it proves to be the same, we would have one hell of a player on our hands. To be honest this could have some truth as we've sold on Armand Traore to QPR.
Gary Cahill - Bolton Wanderers
This transfer saga (and it has become a saga) is almost as long as the Fabregas transfer saga. Why can't we do what Barcelona have done and just get our man in the end. He clearly wants to come to Arsenal, Arsenal clearly want him. Just sort the fee out and help yourselves a little to ease the pathetic defending we saw against Manchester United. Cahill apparently has a a medical arranged for him before the window shuts, I just hope the door doesn't slam shut in our faces.
Eden Hazard - Lille
So... we're back to another player who we've been linked for a while. SA similar type of transfer to that of Nasri from Marseille to Arsenal. The fear is that Arsenal would be a stepping stone to Barcelona, Real Madrid or Manchester City. He is a quality player and will link up well as a front three with himself, van Persie and Gervinho. He, like Cahill, has apparently had a medical arranged for him to make the process of the transfer being as easy as possible.
Those two medical's are likely to be tomorrow. They have to be, we can't mess around come August 31st!
Park Chu-Young - Monaco
As I have already released a post on Park Chu-Young, I won't dwel too much on it. But Wenger said we are close to signing a striker. This can only be him. Arsenal do their business quietly, but usually we know before Arsenal.com release any kind of statement. The wonders and speed of the Internet for you!

Park Chu-Young to Sign Today
Arsenal are to announce the arrival of South Korea's captain. The striker is 26 years-old and is at an age that he can slot straight in the the first 11. Park is arriving from French outfit Monaco, so he's familiar with the pressure of performing for a big club.
Apparently we stole Park at the last minute from Lille, where he was about to have a second medical for the club. This could destroy our chances of getting Eden Hazard, if we were ever to go for him.
Chu-Young is set to be handed the number 9 shirt, which to many was an unlucky number. Hopefully he can make it his own.
Arsenal have paid £2.6 million up front and a the a potential £1.7 million in bonuses could be added on top in the initial fee. Park will earn £170,000 a month at the Emirates.

Lille Close to Agreement for Hazard
Reports have come out of France that Lille are close to agreeing a fee for Hazard. THere are no excuses to throw down big money towards Hazard, if he really is going to improve our squad, especially after receiving huge income from the sales of Fabregas and Nasri.
As we made it clear it to you previously, Arsenal has just formulated a proposal of thirty million euros for Belgian international attacker Eden Hazard (20), whose contract expires in June 2015, but without success. A new offer of thirty-five million euros is set to be made.
According to our information, the Lille player has already made an agreement with the Gunners over a future transfer. Concern is very much on the side of the club of president Michel Seydoux.

Transfer Window Countdown: 9 Days
9 days left of the transfer window and yet it's still quiet on our front. It actually makes you wonder if we will sign any one at all. Wenger has come out and said that he'll sign experienced players. I'll believe it when I see it Arsene, change your stubborn ways.
Transfer Speculation:
Eden Hazard - Lille
All summer we had been linked with Hazard and he was the star player last season for Lille. Instead we opted for Gervinho, who had proven a good bit of business. How ever if we can get Eden into our team as well, then we'll have two players who know each others game and we could have a deadly attack. Even though there are sources claiming a deal is to be done for £20m+, I still can't see Wenger getting his man, as Lille have already said he's not going anywhere.
Scott Parker - West Ham United
I'm pretty surprised no one has snapped up West Ham's player of the season last year even after their relegation to the Championship, but I still think he'll move on to a Premier League team before the transfer deadline. We are linked with him yet again, with Arsenal desperately looking for experienced players. I'd take him in a heart beat, that's how bad our situation has got. Apparently we've sent a scout to watch him, in my opinion, why on earth do you need to watch him, he's played top flight football and a proven player for many years. You either want him or you don't.
Gedion Zelalem - Olney Soccer Club
On a brighter note, we've signed someone! That's right a 14 year old, who'll join us on his 16th birthday in January 2013, juts what we need! We saw this guy in the Dallas Cup, which Arsenal Youth basically took part in. One for the future?... far distant future if you ask me.
Kaka - Real Madrid
We had a high note through news of Zelalem signing for us *sighs*... but to more disheartening news. Yesterday I spoke of Kaka's odds to join us looked more promising, but the Brazilian squashed rumours straight away by insisting he is staying to prove his worth and gain trust from Mourinho in order that he can start for Real. Well that one didn't last long did it.
