After spending ages trying to sign him, having **** with work permits, and not playing a single minute for the First XI, we've sold Wellington Silva.

that's a damn shame, I know it took us forever to finally get joel Campbell into the team I think we loaned him out like two or three times before his issues were sorted

If only we took as much time and effort to sign players that could have an effect on the upcoming season it would be nice.

Arsenal transfer window is like losing a loved one, 5 stages of grief and all.

(denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance)

Think I'm smack bang in the middle of stage 4. :p

Patience, guys. Window is still open!

At this rate, I may be jumping out of it soon...

Seem like there is at least a rumour with regards to him. Mirror football I think.

Arsenal have had a £2million bid accepted for Bolton Wanderers defender Rob Holding.

The England U21 international underwent a medical on Monday evening and is expected to be confirmed as an Arsenal player once personal terms are finalised.

Holding has only played 30 first-team games for Bolton but the 20-year-old did enough to impress Arsene Wenger's scouts that he had a bright future.

Hey I'm no psychologist, 5 stages is what google said. :D

I'm now in the first part of the last stage only. I have very little hope for this season I'm afraid.

So much of sense ... urgh.

Arsene Wenger has failed to deliver the title to the club since the memorable unbeaten 2003/04 campaign with their rivals consistently outspending them since, but Gazidis has warned Arsenal fans not to expect an influx of expensive recruits this summer.

"This approach, for us, gives us a very, very powerful balance because it's not just about spending money but about how you spend your money and doing it wisely," Gazidis told ESPN.

"It's about having a strong core philosophy and values within the club that players buy into and our fans can be proud of.

"These are all things that lead to success, and when you look at Arsenal over the last four or five years, there's no question that the squad has been progressing in strength.
