Monaco striker Chu-Young set for Arsenal deal

Monaco striker Park Chu-Young is set to complete a move to Premier League side Arsenal this weekend. The South Korea captain, who has made over 91 appearances for the French club, is on his way to London for a medical in the next 24 hours.

Arsenal given Cahill hope as Bolton sign Boyata

Bolton Wanderers have stepped in to sign Dedryck Boyata on a season-long loan from Manchester City, news that will not be lost on Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger who is pursuing Gary Cahill.

The Trotters rejected a bid they described as not in the correct ball park from Arsenal for Cahill. Bolton are aware that an improved bid may be tabled and have seemingly moved to shore up their backline should the England man depart by bringing in 20-year-old defender Boyata.

    Indecision is always a killer.
    I am a Arsenal fun for years. I love the club and I love the entertaining football they play, but every action should have a final target. I think the Arsenal manager either miss that concept or has a different target from the club;s funs.
    If he has a wining spirit and being a champion as all the funs wish he is going to spend an impressive amount of money to add some impressive players. If not, he will hesitate as usual and the cycle of frustration and escaping from the club of the youngsters will continue.
    Arsenal is a good club having no trophies for six years. This is the work of Arsene Wenger. He always have a not to lose mentality with indecisive character. But when you play not to lose you will definitely lose, because your opponent will play to win.
    Anyway I hope to see a difference in the club otherwise I am tired of the reapetetive cycle.

    8-2… Now it is clear for everybody and even those “so cold” die hard Wenger fans…!!!

    A total disgrace coupled with and humiliating performance…

    There is something truly wrong in the camp…

    I think he is ( and I raised those concerns last season ) a poor tactician ( same old tactic with no alternative ) and a weak manager ( man management )… Now that we have seen the limits of his skills, it is time to look deep…

    I guess Nasri ( who had a brilliant game with Man City ) saw it coming and decided to leave…

    Again a TOTAL DISGRACE… THANKS WENGER…!!

      I’m not one calling for AW to resign but it obvious Arsenal need someone who can put some steel into the side. It’s time to look for new blood in the management team, someone who can come up with alternative options, someone who knows how to organise a defence. Someone in the mould of Tony Adams or Patrick Viera (I know we won’t get bhim from Man City) wouldn’t have allowed this spineless performance.

      The old guard is becoming outdated and no longer capable of inspiring good enough performances. We have been going backwards ever since Viera left in 2006. Sure we have played good football but if we are honest we all suspected that this day was just around the corner. Well it’s arrived and if we don’t get new blood, both in terms of experienced players and the management staff we are dead and buried for the next couple of seasons.

      For the sake of Arsenal’s future spend the bloody money, now!!!!!!!!!!!

      Today was humiliating and hopefully we have time to put it right, if the man will finally see what most supporters have been saying for months and months!!!

    My darkest hours as an arsenal fan. but i will never turn my back on this great club. the writings been on the wall for the past few years to be honest we lost it. shocking decisions leading us down this dark tunnell wenger should have been moved up stairs a couple of years ago and bring in a manager with some urgency in him. We are a team who had a goalkeeping crisis for years but all we done is spent a whole transfer term chasing a goalie who should have been considering retirement and we couldnt even get him, it and this is a disaster for the club and the thinking along these terms have cost the club titles and good players now we have been reduced to been humilated by Man Utd and there is no excuse but the red card for the boys at the top and this is more than wenger. We the fans are Arsenal not those who are looking at there profits they dont have Arsenal at heart they are grredy people who cant guide this ship theyve us up on the rocks and there we are going to stay unless we see some changes, no more excuses now. For the next few days its going to be panic buying and paying above the odds for players that could have been bought all season if some of them ever wanted to be playing for Arsenal in the first place so its a case of sit back for the next few days as we carry on in this merry go round trip as we chase players that are second rated by there own teams and have not got a game only in the reserves for years but the good news for the greedy boys they will be bought on the cheap and that keeps them smiling for a little more time and we will save loads of the money left that was got from selling all our gold that now leaves us with the coppers. Us real fans hold your heads up high think of the great years the title won by Graham with little or no money Man U, Chelsea, or Man City wudnt know what this means so we will keep our heads up. But those who are payed to mind this club and keep it where they got it should hang there heads in shame for now and for ever. YOU RUINED OUR CLUB

    Not sure Wenger is the main problem! I agree he is very stubborn and wants to do things his way! Our biggest problem is Negotiating for players as we have failed to bring in top quality players. Ivan Gazides is not doing his job and should take alot of the blame as well as Hill Wood and Kronke for not insiting that wenger should spend big on top players! Come on Arsenal sort it out or we will be nowhere near the top 4 this season! I am worried about our season! Mertsaker, Baines, Scott Dan and Jadson should be signed if we are to save our season. Otherwise someone needs to be made accountable and someone needs to resign! I think Gazides should go and David Dein to return. Also on the defence we need steve bould to replace our 1st team defensive coach. Many changed i know but this is the only way forward!
