One player has carried you(poorly) for the past 12 years.

Arsenal won't win a trophy till the sign some recognised players, they keep going out and signing young players and trying to develop there game but in truth there isnt enough of them in that squad to take them that extra mile for a trophy.



they need to make that first step and sign a big well known player they have the money, they wont win trophy's till they do this.



also Bentner might be the worst striker i have seen in the premier league up there with Diego Forlan.



Liverpool i think might just sneak back into the top 4, ONLY if Torres gets back fit though. Joe Cole is the best signing of the summer so far.



again i think Man Utd and Chelsea will battle for the title, don't think Man City are ready this season they need a few more players yet.



top 4 for me will be this



Man Utd

Chelsea

Man City

Liverpool

How do people see the new Squad rules affected there team this year?



"The new rules, agreed by all Premier League club chairmen, state that clubs must name a squad of up to 25 players, with 8 of those being ‘home-grown’ players. Furthermore, no more than 17 of those players can be over 21 and not home-grown."

Took your time didn't you? I expected you to be the last to bite.

....

Just to add, once the squad is submitted it can't be amended until the January window.



Going to create some interesting choices particularly where players are going to start the season injured. The likes of Woodgate for example, who has already pretty much been told he won't be in Spurs 25 man squad therefore won't be eligible to play in the Premier League until January at the earliest.

well i would have Hargreaves if he was fit he would be in the squad. if he isnt though he isnt a big loss, he is a good player but we havent really missed him



so Man Utd have there squad, its pretty easy to select

Campbell signs on a 1 year deal.



Good bit of business for us, especially with Taylor out until October.

Why not sign Gallas as well, then you will have a solid enough defense to keep you up

I hope Simpson gets back to fitness, then Perch can play in the centre of defence too.



Coloccini was very good for us last season, so i hope that gives him more confidence this year, as his first year in the Premiership wasn't great.

Made my day did that

Utd season tickets still on general sale 8 weeks after the renewal deadline. First home game vs Newcastle on general sale as well.



We had 64000 ST holders two years ago and a 60000 waiting list.



[i'For every one that boycotts, 10 are waiting to take their place.'[/i

Luke Young

That'll leave us needing a right back and a left back and Boyce, Alcaraz, Gohouri and Caldwell at centre back.

I'm led to believe that we are close to signing FC Twente right back Ronnie Stam for about £2m.
