Song is officially to the catalans. 15mil and a five year contract. So who is going to replace him. Arsenal boss  Arsene Wenger said in his interview that he would be looking to sign a midfielder. Well I know most of you might be thinking, well that is clearly Sahin but I think Wenger is talking about a permanent midfielder. To be more specific a defensive midfielder. Yann M'vila has always been linked with the gunners but I think by the end of the week he will be a gooner. M'vila is very popular as Zenit and Spurs also want him but he has a premier league and a champions league desire. So arsenal.

Now on to Nuri Sahin. Sahin is supposedly in London either having a medical or having a photoshoot. The turkish international would be a great addition to Arsenal's midfield and plays like our previous captain Cesc Fabregas.   Sahin has been rumored to have signed his   loan deal with an 8mil buy clause at the end but if Arsenal dont finish in the top four you can say good bye to Sahin. UPDATE: Turns out the spanish papers have been talking rubbish again because Arsenal and Real Madrid are still in talks. The buy at the end of season deal is actually the thing that is holding it up! Hopefully that would clear up by the end of the week.

On to the attacking issue. Should we replace RVP with Llorente. I say yes but im not righting of Giroud he will have some startes. Spanish papers have Arsenal favourites to sign the 6'4 striker but if Wenger is going to he better hurry up other wise Juventus will snap him up quick. Llorente is an excellent forward and good in the air. He is also very good with the ball at his feet as well. Llorente would cost lower than 25mil and Arsenal do have that money. Arsenal have over 55mil but will they save it for a rainy day. Well at the Emirates its pouring down so Wenger should get spending.

Another thing Arsene said in his interview was that he wanted to sign a defender. Will it be a centre back or a full back? I think it is a left back. His name is Cheikh M’Bengue and is very experienced as he is Toulous's  first choice left back and has played 21 times for french under-21's. 

Now how did we pick a starting 11 with all these players linked to the gunners.

That is a title winning squad wouldnt you agree.

Well that's it from me. If anything has changed I will update it later today thanks for reading by.
