WH have just bought Petric...maybe it us who are close to signing Marica.

Or maybe it's just agent talk. You would have thought we could have sealed the deal by now if we were genuinely interested.

We are signing Carlton Cole then.

I'd rather just play Park who's just an impairment as it is.

Surely between Akpom, Sanago, Park and Bendtner we can cover for any potential loss of Giroud, up until January at least. None of these free guys are any better anyway. They'd just be liabilities preventing us from offering their wages for better players.

A real who's who of nobodies

And Marica is a big name?

Honestly I would rather play Park than any of them.

Can't wait until we find out what the deal was with that signing.

Yeah, Amaury Bischoff got more game time than Park.

Did Park do something particularly horrible to not be given a fair chance to prove himself?
I say this because i think i have seen worse performances from other players who still got games.

He's been advised by the manager of the South Korean team to leave Arsenal if he wants to make the squad for the World Cup.
Seemingly he was dropped for this latest round of Internationals.

As regards Marica, all the rumours linking him to us originate in that comment made by his agent?
Or has there been something new?

Doesn't that have more to do with the public backlash against him skipping his military service? He was on loan in Spain last season so it can't be related to his club situation.

How did that loan go, btw. checks google
He has been completely off my radar.

He was rubbish mate. Hardly played.

Oh well. Back to Bentdner as back-up then.

11 starts, 14 subs, 5 goals, 1 assists in his time at Celta Virgo.

There seems to be something really iffy about that deal. I don't know if it was the deal itself or something that has come out afterwards, but there has to be something that made Wenger go against him for whatever reason.

It was definately something to do with his military service. Only logical reason.
