Arsenal must move FAST to avoid losing Reus to Man City!


He has been on the transfer of radar of Arsenal and Arsene Wenger for some time according to many Arsenal transfer rumours over the last few years and Marco Reus may not even be ready to move clubs until next summer, but we need to keep a very close watch on his situation.
According to a Daily Express report, our Premier League rivals Man City have already got the jump on the Gunners, having made contact with the forward’s Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund.
Apparently City have enquired about the possible availability of Reus and asked to be kept informed about any news or changes in the situation. And this is not just a pipe dream of a transfer for Arsenal, because the 25-year old Germany international has put off tals about a contract extension and his current deal with Dortmund has a £20 million release clause that is due to become active in the summer.

Germany reveal Arsenal may have played Ozil despite injury!! WTF?


If this story about Arsenal sending Mesut Ozil off to the international break with Germany carrying a knee problem that he may have been carrying during the Premier League clash with Chelsea on Sunday is true, it would at least answer the questions about why our 25-year old playmaker seemed to struggle to influence the game in the same way as the Chelsea midfielders Eden Hazard and Cesc Fabregas did.
But the report in The Guardian also raises more questions than it answers, like just what are the medical team at Arsenal playing at? Have the club actually got a medical team? Did we really play our club record signing for 90 minutes while he was carrying a knee problem? Why would Wenger take the more effective Santi Cazorla off when Ozil was struggling?

Arsenal Debate – What to do with Jack Wilshere?


Wilshere This, Wilshere That – What to do With This Talented Starlet? by NikkoGunners
Most Arsenal fans nowadays read the team sheet looking for one name – Is Wilshere playing or is he not? Second question quickly is what does that mean for other talents in the Squad?
Clearly Wilshere is a massively talented young man and on his day he can change the match just like that. However, there are statistics that many Arsenal Fans have been looking at and they are as damning as can be if you look at this statement:
Just analyzing the past season’s record:
1) Our best wins like against Borussia Dortmund away, Liverpool at home, Napoli at home where we totally dominated the opponents came when Wilshere was not playing. We even drew with Bayern at their home ground when he didn’t play.
