    3 games in a row at home we've failed to score against a team who setup to defend

    We need another striker, a world class striker. Wenger really has to see to that and rectify it during the summer. The midfield is set because we can create a shitload of chances in the vast majority of our games but we dont have a legitimate striker/finisher. Giroud needs help and Welbeck isn't there yet.

    Yeah I hope this off season we can bring someone. I still don't want to give up on Giroud but he's gotta improve

    The question is will Wenger buy a striker. I don't think he will. He is going to live and die with Giroud and Welbeck.

    90% chance that does happen.

    "Sanchez and Walcott can play the position. We also have Sanogo and Akpom as well."

    Hopefully I'm wrong.

    only if Benzema miraculously becomes available...if not maybe we buy a wide player and make Alexis a CF...

    A GK, DM are must buys...then a forward of some sort...

    Squad is that close

    Yeah. Wenger already said he's gonna miss the start of the season.

    Just because he's fit and wants to play doesn't mean he has to play or even start every game.

    Stirling is being mention by a few clubs....even UTD.

    Says he wants to go to London soooooo I'm guessing Arsenal.....but they womnt pay £40m tho...Chelsea don't need him.

    I think his agent is putting alot of these stories out there. Do I believe that Sterling wants to leave Liverpool, Yes. But I think his agent is also looking for a big payday himself with all of these rumors too.

    I think he wants CL football. I also think he's been tapped up by a few clubs...but this is down to agent tho...he's just come out said there is no way on earth he is signing another contract with Liverpool...

    They can however refuse to sell him and let him ridew the contract out, it's just that he loses value bigtime the less time he has on his contract.

    shaping up to be an interesting summer

    Man U contacted Liverpool about Sterling z3zrULC.gif
    Hummels allegedly turned down a move to Man U as well.
    season needs to hurry up & end, so we see how this shapes up.

    He was a youth player for Castilla. Wouldn't surprise me at all if they hired Rafa. Just like Lucho at Barca, he'll understand the politics that go into managing Madrid. I thought he understood the Spanish game very well when he managed Valencia.

    Di Marzio is the main source on this, who is 50/50 on his stories.
