Monaco have expressed some interest in
signing Sagna from the Gunners this summer, but no official bid has been made.
Wenger had concerns about Eboue otherwise he wouldn't have
signed Sagna, yet there is a feeling around THOF that EE should start ahead of Sagna, primarily because he brings extra potency to the attack, but I believe when Walcott is playing, Sagna is the better bet — he is more disciplined in his positional play and is a far better defender.

Arsenal will now definitely need to
sign a right - back and Wenger has an important decision to make; either to promote carl Jenkinson to the first - choice right - back or buy a ready made replacement for

Song, arguably our most improved player is on 4 yellow cards and we should ensure that he doesn't miss the Chelsea game.The partnership of Gallas and Vermaelen is outstanding, yet one can not expect them to play in every game, and it is in that are we are weak in cover.With regards to the full back situation, perm any two from four, that is Clichy, Gibbs, Eboue,
Sagna and even Traore they are attacking wing backs and are always at risk on the quick counter attack by the opposition.Almunia still doesn't impress me and his command of his area is still indecisive and he is still vulnerable to letting goals in, especially to his near post.Wenger being Wenger, I doubt he will buy in January, and it is a pity we didn't go for Given months before he joined City, when he was available for a comparatively cheap price.This new diamond shape or 4 -1-4-1 is working well and we have an abundance of quality to interchange, which bemuses the opposition more often than not.We have every chance this year, and we are also being helped by the fact that the other so called big four sides are showing their vulnerability.A couple of decent
signings, not squad players in January, and hopefully we are in the mix.

brazils current captain and midfielder gilberto to greek side for 1m... we cuda got at least 7 / 8M for a guy with his cv @any1 who thinks AWs stubborness is fading; il believe that when i see him splash out on proven quality in the positions we need, every arsenal fan, aswel as rival fans, know where we need to strenthen and sols
signing wil not make us a stronger outfit at all, sol was a legend in his first spell with us but any arsenal fan who will be satisfied when this proves to be our only transfer activity does not want to win trophies... can u imagine the frustration of cesc, arsha,
sagna and gallas???
