Free Flags 4 GOONERS

I was just reading the online gooner and was impressed with ‘P. Cavills’ idea of Arsenal providing all Arsenal fans with a free scarf to help improve the atmosphere. I would welcome this at one of our night games, perhaps if we make it to the champions league group stages, they atmosphere would be raised with 10-20K waving them in the air whilst ‘jumping up for the arsenal’.

Arsenal confirmed their squad numbers today as follows, 1. Jens LEHMANN, 2. Abou DIABY, 4. Cesc FABREGAS, 5. Kolo TOURE, 6. Philippe SENDEROS, 7. Tomas ROSICKY, 8. Freddie LJUNGBERG, 9. EDUARDO, 10. Willie GALLAS, 11. Robin VAN PERSIE, 13. Alexander HLEB, 15. DENILSON, 16. Mathieu FLAMINI, 17. Alexandre SONG, 19. GILBERTO, 20. Johan DJOUROU, 21. Lukasz FABIANSKI, 22. Gael CLICHY, 24. Manuel ALMUNIA, 25. Manu ADEBAYOR, 26. Nicklas BENDTNER, 27. Emmanuel EBOUE, 31. Justin HOYTE, and 32. Theo WALCOTT, still no number 3 or 12.

Walcott was seen on Arsenal.com today and talked of how his shoulder injury played on his mind towards the end of the season. It was clear in the Everton away match he could not go on without a shoulder op. Theo is quoted as saying “The shoulder is absolutely fine,” and “I have about 85 per cent of full movement at the moment but I have started training as normal. Myself and Robin van Persie started two weeks early.”

On the transfer side of things, Anelka seems to be favouring a move to Valencia now Arsenal have secured the services of Eduardo. Other than that most of the football talk today has been about the controversial Argentine Tevez and his on off move to Manure. He’s too ugly for Arsenal anyway.
