Arsenal Bulletin
Ribery may sign 4 AFC but with a swap deal with Helb, Senderos or some other player moving 2 Marseille and Ribery moving 2 AFC . With Flamini moving 2 Serie A expect AFC 2 resign Sidwell 4 free . FrEddie Ljungberg 2 stay at AFC with Denilson but with Diaby as a sub again might see Diaby leave AFC as a player like him dosen't like being a sub .
I am the guy who works at Arsenal and gives you inside data as it unfolds. I talked about Daniel Alves and in the next press conference Wenger was asked about it. I am not to be saying this but actually the negotiations are ongoing and the deal would be a swap with Eboue plus cash Jesús Navas is just a smoke screen. Wenger is tired with Eboue’s antics and defending. To clarify about the left back position, Cristian Chivu would be brought in and the Matteo Ferrari is also a smoke screen. The gypsy from Utrera, Reyes is not coming back, Baptista is rubbish besides be wouldn’t like to be fifth in line to play. Who are those saying that Henri would be sold? Not in a million years, see how Arsenal panic and wasteful infront of goal, see how Henri is cool rather Eto’o would be brought in. Arsenal needs clinical finishers to make good use of their chances. The goalkeeper situation is a problem we are not sure whether Buffon would be really coming, he said last Summer that he would leave this Summer, now he has been told he would leave but not to Inter, if he leaves expect him to come to Arsenal, if not expect Gordon or Akinfeev. This is how the 30 million and the sale of some players money would be used.
-Eto’o = 22 million
-Chivu = 10 million + Flamini
-Buffon = Viera Debt + Ljungberg + 2 million
-Alves = 8 million + Eboue
-Ribery = 13 million
-Yago Fernandez = 100k
-Jurgen Macho = 750k
-Reyes = 12 million
-Senderos = 4 million
-Aliadiere = 4 million
-Gilbert = 1 million
-Muamba = 2 million
-Almunia = 2.5 million
-Poom = 500 k
Arsenal Team next season
-GK: Buffon, Macho, Mannone
-CB: Gallas, Toure, Djourou, Fernandez, Connolly
-LB: Chivu, Clichy, Traore
-RB: Alves, Hoyte
-CM: Gilberto, Fabregas, Denilson, Diaby
-LM: Ribery, Rosický, Merida
-RM: Hleb, Walcott
-ST: Henry, Eto'o, Van Persie, Adebayor, Bendtner, Vela
Formation:
- 1. Buffon-
- 6. Alves- 5. Toure- 10. Gallas- 3. Chivu
- 13. Hleb- 4. Fàbregas- 19. Gilberto- 8. Ribery
- 9. Eto’o- 14. Henri-
Arsenal rumours With Flamini departing the Emirates, Arsene Wenger feels he needs a new central midfielder, makoun from lille is his first choice replacement who could arrive for around £7 million. Jens Lehmann will decide to sign a one year contract with the Gunners but Wenger will seek a long term replacement. This will e Craig Gordon from Hearts. The deal will either be £3 million or Flamini plus 500k. Wenger gets the felling that Thierry Henry is past his best and against the Frenchmans wishes he will be sold to Inter for £12 million to meet up with his pal Patrick vieira. Wenger will ponder over making bids for Eto'o and Klose but will go for the younger Fernando Torres for his £25 million release Clause. Rosicky will also be sold and will move to AC Milan for a hefty £15 million. This will help fund the long awaited arrival of Franck Ribery for £13 million, Ljungberg will be bought by Middlesbrough and Aliadiere will soon follow. SWP will be brought in for a year long loan.

He continued: "I have a little idea which I have submitted to president (Lyon president Jean-Michel) Aulas.
"He's the one who for now will decide on the two remaining years of my contract."

Totti Named in Roma Squad
Francesco Totti has been named in Roma's squad for the Champions League return match with Manchester United on Tuesday.
The 30-year-old club captain has had sciatic nerves problems but should be able to play against Sir Alex Ferguson's side.
Ashton-under-Lyne-born midfielder Simone Perrotta will not be able to play at Old Trafford as the World Cup-winner is suspended after being cautioned in the first leg.
David Pizarro, the Peruvian midfielder who was suspended for the first leg, is the likely deputy for Perrotta.
Max Tonetto is still injured and was not named in the 20-man squad for Tuesday's clash.
Roma coach Luciano Spalletti rotated his squad for Saturday's 2-0 win over Catania, a match played on neutral soil at Lecce behind closed doors.
He singled out the form of Montenegrin international Mirko Vucinic who scored against United and Catania.
Spalletti said: "Mirko has done very well for us both today and against Manchester."
Among the likely starters against United who were rested against Catania were Daniele De Rossi, Alessandro Mancini, Cristian Chivu and Christian Panucci.

Eto'o Keeps Kids from Racist Fans
Cameroon striker Samuel Eto'o has said he does not take his children to football matches because of racist attitudes in the stadiums.
The 26-year-old, who plays for Spanish side Barcelona, said: "It is something that has affected me personally.
"I think players, leaders, and the media should join forces to stop this," Eto'o told sports newspaper Marca.
"In the stands you hear things that are difficult to explain to a child. It is better they are not exposed to this."
Eto'o continued: "No-one should feel looked-down upon because of the colour of their skin, so at this moment in time I prefer my children don't go to football matches."
Last season Eto'o threatened to walk off the pitch after being racially abused by fans in a match at Real Zaragoza's stadium. Zaragoza were fined after the incident.
A number of other Primera Liga clubs, including Atletico Madrid, Malaga, Racing Santander and Getafe, have been fined over the last two years after fans directed racist abuse at visiting players.
The Spanish government has committed itself to taking a hard line on racism in football, after a rise in the number of incidents of abuse directed at players in recent seasons.
