    Very strange signing for Bournemouth, although with Mings injured they have no backup if Daniels gets injured as well.

    Dembele is expected to be loaned back according to Sky Sports.

    We absolutely and clearly need to strengthen at the back, that would be my first priority and Jorge isn't enough.
    Obviously we need to add players in midfield and up front too, but even today I was getting nervous when Rotherham attacked.

    Bournemouth close to re-signing Rhoys Wiggins from Sheffield Wed. Fee agreed apparently.
    Makes you wonder doesn't it, if Eddie Howe considers him good enough for the Prem?

    Hope he goes back there and does well. He is a classy player and I don't buy the past his best stuff. Still young, still quick. Just needs the right manager to show some faith and play him the right way which Howe will do.

    Not a rumour but would like us to go back in for Tommie Hoban at Watford, can play left back and centre back. I think we were linked with him in the summer.

    Seems Bauer isn't far away so I wonder how Kashi (remember him?) is doing? Also I think with our new proper shape, Ba could be decent. Moves the ball forwards, at decent pace and given options to pass might add to our mf. Like to see a Poyet/JC combo again also, but see why JR is picking contracted players given he has another year. Wonder who his "right recruitment" comments were aimed at, given that most discards are still young.

    Last report I heard about Kashi, he'll be ready for pre-season.

    Anyone know when Diarra will be back? If he's also back soon then that would explain why Riga may have pulled the plug on the Reece Oxford move. Plays in exactly the same positions.

    Im hoping for atleast 2 in before the deadline 'slams shut'. A winger and striker would be what I would go for if Diarra and Bauer are close to a return to strengthen us up defensively.

    Johann's chosen an awkward time to hit form then

    We need more wingers even if Johann has had 1 good game. Who would play RM if he was out injured for a couple of months? We'd be screwed with the lack of width we have in the squad. He needs more competition and someone we can bring on when he's not having a good game. A winger who can play on both flanks would be ideal....in case him or Bergdich lose form. We need more and better quality than just Harriott as back up.

    AW - 'you can have Serge for 6 months with a 24 hour recall clause'

    JR - 'excellent, I have heard of him'

    AW - 'OK sorted, can we have your best player Ade Lookman for £100k?'

    KM - 'yess, I'll drive him tomorrow'

    Be great if we can sign Serge Gnabry... Be even better if we can do to him what we did to Coquelin as it'll create so much trust between us and Wenger in the future.

    We've got Bergdich / Harriott on the Left yet on the Right we've only got Gudmundsson... Bringing Gnabry in wouldnt just provide backup on the Right of Midfield but would also allow Gudmundsson to either play in the middle of Midfield with Cousins (and thus resting Jackson) or he could play in the hole behind the Striker (for when we need to play a bit more of a defensive away match i.e. Ipswich)

    Howe turned Francis into a footballer so why not Wiggo ?

    Would love to sign Gnabry. Not getting hopes up yet as that article is just someone speculating based on wenger saying they want to do something like what they did with coquelin.

    Perhaps when shes on the phone to the gooners Katrien could get some tips on how to run a football club on a budget.

    Rhodes going to Middlesbrough and Dembele going to Spurs... Weve a huge chance to drag Blackburn and Fulham into trouble now

    We could start by loaning them some more players.

    Thought I saw on skysports Gnabry is going to Brighton? Hopefully with how the coquelin loan turned out he will come here but if its the players choice I can't see him choosing us over Brighton. Not played much in 2 seasons though so how fit will he be..

    Bid rejected for Brest defender Simon Falette. Another CB which is a bit confusing. Came from a journo on Twitter who says it came from Foot Mercato.

    Jokes aside this is surely one that Riga has picked out? Seeing as he's come from Ligue 2 where he was managing. That said, why would he not want Oxford and then get him? Unless he's against loans.

    NewsShooper says Charlton are interested in the move.

    Well, I'm interested in having Gemma Arterton and Sienna Miller over for a bit of Netflix and Chill, but that don't mean it'll happen.

    Charlton Athletic are believed to be in talks with Arsenal over the loan signing of Serge Gnabry.

    According to south-east London newspaper News Shopper, the Addicks want to tie up a deal for the 20-year-old until the end of the season.

    I think another quality centre back would be good otherwise we have sarr who is not convincing yet and Johnson.
