Morning all, strange day was yesterday.

At around half five yesterday afternoon this article appeared on sport.co.uk claiming that Ajax captain Thomas Vermaelen had signed for us for a fee of around 10 million pounds. As this website is the only sports website reporting the story and the Ajax website informs us that Vermaelen is in fact away with the Belgian squad in Japan, it does seem total and utter shite.

Making up a story like that is so boneheaded it can’t even be put into words, no doubt their only aim was to generate hits to broaden their reputation for making up shit stories with imaginary ‘inside sources’, such as that one.

This story though, must top it all off. How utterly low do these people want to go? If Arshavin returns to Zenit this summer in a lucrative offer I will eat my slipper live on Justin.TV. Well… I would give it my best shot.

MMMMMmmmmmm old sweaty foot slipper.

Mart Po0000om has been offered a coaching role at the club whilst also overseeing the Ladies team as well. He seems to be well liked at the club and good luck to him.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic, the worlds tallest cunt, has been having a bit of a domestic with our very own Niklas Bendtner who has responded to criticism of our team being too young and claims the club are letting down the fans. A sentence containing the words ‘fuck’ and ‘off’ are in order, I think.

Oh God, not this again. You would have thought his agent only knew two teams…Newcastle and Arsenal.

Now onto the poll results.

Over the past two days I have asked you readers two questions asking how the squad needs to be ammended to be of Premiership challenging quality next season.

The first question I asked you in a poll is:

• How many new signings do you want at the club?

The majority of readers, (46%) want THREE new signings.

The second question I asked you yesterday was:

• In what positions do we need new signings?

The answer was 46% of you readers want at least a new defender and a new midfielder for next season.

The results of these basically re-affirm my personal feelings which I have aired multiple times, here is what I have said in the past:

Then we must add to that two experienced players and better defensive cover. A defender is a must, two defenders if Gallas leaves. One thing is for sure, Gallas and Toure are not a Premier League winning defensive partnership despite them both having been there, done that and got the medals to prove it. A no nonsense defender is a must, we don’t need another short athlete. An experienced defensive midfielder is also needed. It might spell the end for one of our midfielders and I think I need a little more time to think about that, a Diaby loan would be a possibility.

The poll’s will continue throughout the next week or so, so keep an eye out for them and vote away! I’m giving the voting a rest for today because there is enough of that stuff going on for the European elections today.

Now, I have saved the bad news until last im afraid. Emmanuel Eboue has said his future at Arsenal is unclear.

“My future at Arsenal is not clear yet, I did not play a lot in the season and the World Cup is coming.

“There are many clubs interested in me, so let’s wait. Before the season’s start I will make a decision.”

Only 44 appearances Manu, nothing to worry about. I think he will stay to tell you the truth.

Right, I better potter off down to the community center to give my vote to some political party I don’t even like…. they are all total and utter jokers.

’till tomorrow.

So have at it, what positions do we need new signings? Remember, if your ideal option is not there you can state exactly what you think Wenger needs to do this summer regarding new signings.

Please do take the time to vote as your votes are very important in the overall result!

Yesterdays poll asked how many new signings are wanted this summer and the results are: With 46% of the vote 3 SIGNINGS was seen as the ideal number, following that with 23% of the vote, 4 SIGNINGS. 19% of you think we need two new signings, 11% think we need five and last but not least, Arsene Wenger bringing in only one player picked up a massive 1% of the vote. Thanks everyone that took the time out to take part.

Three signings happens to also be the amount I feel we need, I’m not going to go on again about what signings because Ive been over that in previous blogs but today’s poll will go someway towards answering where you feel the squad needs strengthening.

Onto a bit of news yesterday and there has been some more speculation about Blaise Matudi but nothing else seems to have happened since the last time we were linked with him, we have not made an approach or anything and it seems he is simply keeping his name in the press as he is seeking a move elsewhere.

There is some quite bad press floating around today, the Tony Adams cock-up yesterday has meant there is a raft of stories claiming that someone in the Arsenal hierarchy wants Arsene Wenger out. If only he could have thought of a better way to get his name back into the hat for managerial jobs….maybe being a half decent manager might have done that?

Sorry Tony, but what you have said is really, really stupid.

And this. Thats for letting it become common knowledge that we have been watching an Italian defender…. you bonehead Tony.

Its sort of all rounded up by a few allegations by Ian McGarry in The Sun, he claims that Wenger wanted Theo Walcott to choose between representing the Under 21′s and the seniors. He never did anything of the sort, he actually stated Theo is doing the right thing but shouldn’t be in that position for starters.

Kolo Toure feels we need to keep the team together and settled to get success next term and while keeping the core of the team together is vital, it does need some fresh blood to add competition for places and just generally improve the squad. Kolo is one player who, at the moment, is probably one of the weak links in the team and his place will be under threat when (and i think its a case of when and not if) we sign a new defender.

Right, this poll will be interesting, results and more, tomorrow.

Good Morning/Afternoon. I woke up a bit late today so that is why today’s blog is about five hours late so apologies for that.

On the Arsenal news front apart from the latest on Eduardo’s injury recovery, there is nothing at all, of any interest, whatsoever.

To try and brighten things up a little I’m starting a few polls because it will at least give me something to talk about so please, please, please take a second to vote!

Now, how many new signings do you want at the club? Tomorrow this poll will be followed with another one asking position/s need to be strengthened? I have already said in previous blogs that I feel we potentially need two new center backs and a new central midfielder so thats three new signings.

Tomorrow I will reveal the answers and it will be very interesting to find out what other Gooners think about what needs to be done this summer.

Apologies about the shoddy apearance of the blog today, I just cant find a way to shift that small ad box on the left hand side.

Id better get down to some revision. Till tomorrow.
