He need a freshen up of the squad. Bring new great players in to create competition

Also keep as many of the decent players as possible

We need to buy some real English steel like those big girders they use in construction of tall buildings. Think they would be great in our midfield.

Definitely need more competition up front. RVP is undeniably one of the best strikers in world football, but his fitness is unreliable. Chamakh looked useful between Aug-Dec and I still feel he can be the striker we all hoped for. But, with Bendtner and possibly Arshavin leaving, we need to bring at least one other in. I know it wouldn't be the most popular move in history, but given that Chelsea have said they'll listen to all offers for Drogba this summer, i'd look no further. He has single handedly destroyed Arsenal for many a season now. Why not offer him a 2yr deal? Surely he'd rather stay in London (his home for 7yrs) than move to Istanbul or Milan.

Yh I reckon Drogba is a good punt. His power and lethal finishing would be perfect up front.

Please Wenger pull one out of the magic hat and sign him!

Get in some tall, physically and mentally strong players with premier league experience. These are the players you need to win the premiership and defeat the lower team that use set-pieces as their advantage.

As for Nasri, you can see what his game is. - Indeed you can, he is using this "interest" from The Premier League Champions Manchester United to either get the pay deal he wants, or the move he want. His agent has probably told him he IS the one in the driving seat. 1 year left on his contract, unhappy (due to lack of trophies and the fact you cannot compete, just like to point out ) and there apparently is real interest from Juve.

Wonder how many players will leave Arsenal this summer, I reckon the bookies should open a market

Nooooooooooooooo

Drogba would be sweet upfront with RvP in the Berghamp role. We would of course have to switch back to the 4-4-2 formation which funnily enough was the formation we were in last time we one a trophy.

I am not liking the sound of signing Peter Odemwingie. We need an elite CF not another Bendner. I expect we will be linked with all of the best strikers only to sign a £4m rated like P.Odemwingie.

"Wonder how many players will leave Arsenal this summer, I reckon the bookies should open a market"

I reckon they should stick to being bookies. I'm happy to place bets with them but I wouldn't want to get my fruit and veg there.

I think you should sign these players:

1) Hangelaand - He is a solid defender and can score headers - £15 million.
2) Ben Foster - Much better than what you currently have - £10 million
3) Fabio Contraeo - Clichy is a liability and needs to be offloaded - £20 million
4) Klass Jan Huntelaar - One of the best finishers in the world, something you suck at - £10 million.

Then if you manage to keep your top players your team could be:

----------------------------Foster---------------------------

Sagna------Hangeland---Vermalean-----Contrao

--------------Fabregas-------------Wilshere------------

Walcott-----------------------------------------------Nasri

--------------Van Persie---------Huntelaar-------------

This sort of a team would win you trophies! I should manage Arsenal!

With Nasri, he could walk into a number of clubs and get paid easily in excess of £100,000 a week so why the should he stay at Arsenal? He is a quality player, and he wants to win trophies. He owes Arsenal nothing! I really hope Wenger gives him an extra few grand a week to keep him.

Realistically there is defo 2 players leaving, Bendtner and Denilson. The you have Arshavin, Ceselona, Clichy & Nasri. The you have the players you SHOULD get rid of but won’t due others leaving you WILL need them, they are IMO Diaby, Rosický, Vela, Eboué, Almunia, FlapiaƄski.

Hangelaand Not a bad shout, should be able to attract him and he surely fit in Wengers price range.

Ben Foster - Why not. Imporved at Birmingham and looks ready for a shot at a top club.

Fabio Contraeo like he would ever join Arsenil. Hes already made it clear he wants to leave for Real Madrid and is expected to within a few days.

Klass Jan Huntelaar - Really?? Havent seen much of him this year in Germany to be fair.

I think you should sign Chris Samba and Peter OogieWoogieBoogie

We don't really care what you have to say United legends 19! You're choices are quite frankly pathetic - Huntelaar? 7 goals last season for Schalke! Bendtner got 9 in the handful of games he played for us! Go play Championship Manager and leave the grown ups to do the talking...

Nicolas Furious - you also support Utd so what's your fascination with our team? As for 'I wonder how many players will leave Arsenal this summer' - only the ones we want out. And if I were you mate, i'd think back to October/November last year when Rooney was adamant he was off because of your 'lack of ambition'...

Unless one or both of Nasri and Fabregas leaves, then there's little point in speculating about players costing more than £15m! Wenger may have a £50m budget this summer, but we all know what he does year in, year out! We'll also have money in from the sale of Denilson, Bendtner, Eboue, Almunia and Vela, but expect these positions mainly to be covered by internal promotions (Lansbury, Botelho, Coquelin, Frimpong, Aneke, Bartley, Miquel).

The only way we'll see big money moves is if we get big money for Cesc. Quite simply, we'd need to replace him with an established and experienced playmaker (a position that doesn't come cheap!). Kaka has never cemented his place at Real and Ozil was signed by Mourinho last summer. Yes, we've heard all about how he'll only ever move to Barca, but what a deal we could do if we part exchanged him for one of those two!
