The transfer window just ended and no new goalkeeper for Arsenal. Almunia will be in goal for another season! smile

Why couldn't Mr. Bean have just bid for Given?What's his obsession with a 37 year old goalie?

Anyway, maybe Aluminium will now step up his game, just like some people who were left out of the world cup by Capello i.e. Walcott and Scholes.

In other news, with Ibra and Robinho going to AC, what happens to Pato, Klaus, Inzaghi and co?Too many strikers like the Argentina in the world cup!

Shame on you Shame on you I didn't know the mercurial Paul Scholes was left out of the WC squad by Capello.
IF YOU EXPECT ME TO POST ANYTHING POSITIVE ABOUT ASENO, YOU MAY AS WELL SIT ON A PIN

Paul scholes retired from international football in 2004.

With window closure, now comes focus on the bread and butter issues of the EPL.

What do you think of this happenings at Chelsea:

1)Essien takes a break from Ghana duty.
2)Drogba takes a break from Ivory coast duty
3)Terry takes a break to recover from Hamstring
4)Lampard takes a break for a hernia operation

Why would the spine of the team take a break? Me thinks that they are focussing/saving up for the 5th game of the season against Mancity

Smano Klaus has moved to Schalke....

The transfer window has closed, Wenger hasn't signed a new keeper as promised....i'm disappointed but that won't stop Arsenal from winning trophies this season. Alumina is not the best keeper in EPL but just look at the following stats from last season

Chelsea….Goals scored 103, Goals against 32
Man Utd… Goals scored 86, Goals against 28
Arsenal…. Goals scored 83, Goals against 41
Spurs…. Goals scored 67, Goals against 41
Man City... Goals scored 73, Goals against 45
Fulham… Goals scored 39, Goals against 46

The only problem i have with Almunia is that he does not produce world class saves in big matches...otherwise he's just as clumsy as everyone else. Defenders are the players who are supposed to protect the keeper that's why i'm relieved we've gotten rid of Silvestre, Gallas & Campbell.

@TAZ..arsenal defence has gotten tighter. And having shown lack of faith in Almunia, Wenger should have done all he could to land a new keeper. Now Arsenal have to endure a season with a keeper whose loyalty has been punctured. Why should Almunia make a game saving save if he knows he is not wanted?

The keeper protection by defenders especially for error-prone goalkeepers means those overlapping defenders (song, sagna) have to be more careful not to be caught out be long balls on counter attack

My sentiments exactly. Capello actually had Scholes called up but he [Scholes] refused - because it was a day to the announcement of the squad - too late - and capello had him called by someone else instead of doing it himself.

Let us not demonstrate our ignorance in public!!
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

I totally agree! I'm sure Arsenal will retain all the trophies they won last season. And the one before that. And the one before that...
