Who is it going to be.. ?

Wenger said he will sign someone.. then again at the end of last season he said he was going to sign someone 'Within' two weeks.. we didnt get a signing until a month later.. I hope this time he is right and we can get someone in this month

I would hope it is no one who is "cup tied" from Champions League so that could rule out Alonso and matey boy from Marseille (forgot the name) Barry is also in the Villa squad to play in the UEFA cup tonight so he too could be ruled out.

Only two options for me are Michael Johnson from Citeh and Inler from Udinese. Not sure if I am happy about either to be honest. Hardly prem experience is it?

I haven't the foggiest clue who it'll be, Johnson is a good possibility and has skill and will continue to improve...that being said, the next couple weeks just got even more interesting.

I'm not so sure that this won't happen on Aug. 31 at 11:59, either. Haha

johnson playing for Citeh as we speak in the UEFA Cup so he would be cup tied if we signed him.

So Inler does not really fit the bill here .... :s_dunno

but if not he then who is left?? Alonso, Barry (ya right!!), Johnson (City) are all cup tied ... I admit i dont know jack about Inler but he is no more familiar to EPL than Ramsey ... only thing might be his experience in international football (again ... ya right!!!) ... I am at a loss here but I am surely keeping my expectations low on this signing ... AW has his visions/ideals for football and he wants to follow them for atleast one more season ... I think ..

The name that seems to be popping up most frequently in the rumor mill right now is Anthony Annan, who is a 22 year old Ghanian CM. He's been capped by his country 16 times so far. Apparently, we're in a race with ManU to sign him, and we had "top scouts" at his last match up in Norway.

Actually I wouldnt mind Arteta to be in our midfield beside Cesc .. he is not exactly a DM but he does a lot of running and tackling is very good too .... his set-pieces are awesome and he will only add to our creativity ... what do you guys think about Arteta?

I like him as a player, good mates with Cesc but I think he is too important for Everton to let go

Everton won't let him go. I'd love to see him and Cesc in midfield, but it won't happen. David Moyes is having enough trouble at Goodison getting his squad in form as it is...selling off one of their best and most consistant players would be close to suicidal.
