Didn't Juve bid something like 8 million for him? A bit cheeky.

Juve say that, I couldn't possibly comment.

If Juve claimed that then it was probably 6 million.

Wouldn't be too sure of that.

Yeah, yeah. Everyone's leaving. It's a brilliant new tactic from Arsene to thoroughly unnerve the opposition when they turn up and don't understand why there's no one else on the pitch. I do wish papers were banned from making shit up until a statement's been released.

His loss though, I am super excited about new season with Podolski, The Ox, Theo, and all the lads- and let's see how Ramsey does in TGB...

And don't forget the triumphant return of midfield maestro Jack Wilshire.

Hey, guess what happened last season after we lost Fab and Nasri - everyone said we'd be total rubbish. Finished 3rd and got into the Champions League once again. Unlike Spurs and Liverpool and it was only Chelsea winning in the final that guaranteed them a place.

'Yeah but what silverware did you win?'

'Yeah, aside from the Charity Shield last summer, what silverware did Man U win?'

Go shag a coconut you Arsenal haters.

Oh yeah, sorry Jack, very excited about your triumphant return too.

It would be a privilege for any Arsenal hater to shag the produce of Island Man

I picked up my Euro winnings today. I was going to joke with the woman in there about them being in Euros but thought she might end up offloading a load of soon-to-be-worthless currency on me. She supports Spurs, but promised not to curse my Arsenal to win the league this season bet

She supports Spurs,

Let's hope AvB repeats the fantastic success from his Chelsea days. Errr

In their brand new Olympic Stadium. Errr

In the Champions League. Errr

:D I declined to mention any of these things although I really, really wanted to take the piss, but she had my betting slip and was giving me money so I thought I'd be nice

RvP is not renewing his Arsenal contract. :(

Oh no, I've just realised that I kept meaning to go to a restaurant he drinks cocktails in, and haven't got around to going. I was going to tell him to stay. I feel responsible :(

@FootballFunnys: Injured Robin Van Persie will struggle to get a new club. The 'back injury' occurred after he was forced to carry Arsenal for 2 years.

I don't HATE Arsenal. Have no feelings either way really.

Now Manchester United is a different matter.

But Chappers, you don't understand what it's like when your top goalscorer and best striker ups and leaves for a better offer...oh wait.

Yes - but ours delivered the goods and we wish him well. Whereas yours.......

And we've got a Euro 2012 winner and top goalscorer to take his place now he's served his apprenticeship.

This would be impressive if it wasn't Torres you were talking about.

Any Rangers fans in?

There were but they're applying to join Chortle.

I'm a Celtic fan. I'm not enjoying Rangers demise as much as I would have predicted.
