No more players . . . .

Arsene has again outlined he doesn’t plan to spend big in the summer. The gaffa said Uni-ched only got Carrick in during last summer and look at what they have done. That is a great point but Arsenal do 100% need more goals from Midfield. I’d accept that theory that one major signing at the same sort of value as Carrick may be enough. This being said everyone else needs to bloody keep fit next season. 

The Times featured the Top Fours’ plan for the summer basically saying Arsenal can’t afford anyone because of their £10Mil repayments. Does this mean we won’t buy anyone for 26 years! They forgot to mention the amount the gate receipts have risen to cover this loan. As always I think the money is there if Wenger wants it.

Looking at all the ‘Teases’ in the programme from Sunday it does appear the three colours of our new away kit are White, Burgundy, and Gold. The shirt follows themes of the Chapman era and pictured is the old white shirt with a red vest pulled over the top. Also there is a picture of Ted Drake wearing a White shirt in the 1934 season. It also paves the way for a third shirt, likely to be yellow, as if we come up against Ajax in the Champions League we’d need a little change. Money through the door I suppose. 

Got my outfit for Pompey away today, stand by on Monday for the pictures!
