I've not seen it anywhere else, but l'Equipe say that Santos is gone, having signed for Porto Alegre (http://www.lequipe.fr/Football/Actualites/Andre-santos-quitte-arsenal/348773)... anyone knows about this ?
If its true, Gibbs' injury must not be as bad as first thought, surely?
Nah, Vermaelen will play there.
Nothing on the official site. Yet.
Hes still in the training pics. But there are a few adamant he is gone.
Will make Wenger look like the biggest fool in the world after his recent comments.
What comments?
He went out and signed Nacho, of course Santos' time was up.

The fat fuck was costing us a fortune to feed.

I'm assuming about having at least two left backs available.
Good news if true. At least it'll prove that Santos is not some freeloading cunt, earning a living for nothing.
"Honestly, I believe that Kieran Gibbs will be out for the Champions League because we are only three weeks away from Bayern now, not even three weeks and I donโt think he will be available. "I will not play Monreal [because he is cup-tied] and certainly not Gibbs, but if you want me to tell you who will play, today I can't tell you. Vermaelen can play there as well and Santos will have a key role as well, yes. "I believe we need two left backs," added Wenger. "You cannot play every single game with the same player. We had two before, we have two again now. "If Gibbs is out for four to six weeks, from six it can easily go to eight [before he is competitive again] and that means two months in a very decisive period. Itโs vital to have another left back."

It's cute that you listen to Wenger's press talk.
Two seasons ago he said we had eight centre backs.

He was in the team till he got injured last season. It's only the last six months that his form has really gone to the wall anyway.
Scored a crucial goal on the last day of the season to help secure champs league
Bah someone does that every year.
we seem to sign a lot of players that get fat. and they ostensibly play football a few hours each day. is arsenal's meal plan based on the suggested menu in our matchday thread titles?
I think they load 'em up with carbs as they're expected to run 10k a game, so the Andre twins have plenty stored.
