That would possibly work if the majority of the Arsenal team wasn't white :P

Dave Kitsons left Stoke and gone to Boro on 2 month loan. Pullis must not think he needs him or he's wanting to give him match practice to sharpen him up.

Bendtner will be injured for some time I think. Groin. So Arsenals season is now down to playing talented midgets upfront. :unsure:

Ah ok... I didn't realise Bendtner was out as well! What's with so many players getting groin injuries??

I know Arsenal haven't been that solid defensively this season, but maybe it's now time to concentrate more on defence than attack and pull out some clean sheets and 0-0 draws in their next few games, if they have to manage without players like Van Persie and Bendtner?

So Guys and Girls what are your thoughts on the January Window?

I have a feeling many many millions will be spent in the PL and it could be a record for January

Chelsea - Ban suspended so will spend massively in case the ban is upheld by CAS

City - Will chase the mega star and I can see them go big time for the likes of Ribery

Man U - Will need to invest some of the Ronaldo cash and still need a goalscorer and must keep pace with Chelsea

Arsenal - Not normally big spenders but to catch the top 2 they need some quality defenders

Liverpool - Not sure they have much cash but must gamble to keep CL place as City, Spurs & Villa all seem up for it.

Spurs - Just announced record profits and have many to offload too.

Birmingham - New owners and have said £30m available

Not sure where that leaves us and it might be time to batten down the hatches as it could be a rocky ride and fees could become very silly.

Thoughts ....

As a Villa fan I can tell you we probably won't do anything. Think MON is happy with the current squad.

January is a notoriously difficult time to do anything. Not sure much will happen for most teams.

Personally, I don't think Arsenal will bring anybody in, while I also doubt that Liverpool have any cash to spare right now. I think United will be priced out of moves by City and Chelsea, who may bring in a new face each. I can see Aguero going to Chelsea myself.

Other than that, I reckon Birmingham will spend and maybe Spurs if they shift Pavluchenko. I can't think of anybody else in a particularly strong financial position.

Roque back to his old tricks again, dropping his team mates in it now though!

Legen - wait for it - dary. Good riddance, the man is a tosser. Bet Saint Mark of Wrexham is chuffed to bits with that interview.

You gotta feel for Hughes. You show so much faith in the guy and this is how he repays you?

What a snivelling, under-handed little man.

Roque's just as bad.

I suspect that Hughes never wanted Robinho in the first place and I wouldn't be surprised if Santa Cruz was helping his boss by stirring the pot to get Barca to make a move!

Haha, I was actually talking about Roque, but Robinho's a little ###### too.

I was suggesting that your last sentence was referring to Hughes.

:!: I CANNOT believe how much some players in the prem are paid....

For the last half hour iv been talking to Abdulah Faye's brother - He spotted something Rovers on me and started talking about Dioud and we got talking about his cars and how much money he must earn etc....Anyway turns on he's a good friend of Diouf & like I said Faye is his borther.

Anyway heres the crazy thing. Abdulah Faye is the captain of Stoke...for that he earns £50K A WEEK!! FOOK ME SIDEWAYS!! :!:

Haha, I see! TBH, I don't think that Hughes has done an awful lot wrong. I've always liked him and still do. He's appeared far more dignified and professional than Allardyce has in recent months.

I said a similar thing when King was in the papers. It was said he was on £40K a week. It's crazy, if football is going to claw back it's way from the financially precarious position many clubs are in then there has to be a radical restructuring of wages.

Things like this make me think it'll never happen. If the likes of Faye and King are on such huge ammounts I assume many a premiership footballer is. It also makes me wonder how on earth we'll ever get wage expenditure down significantly/under control.

I think Aguero is pretty much a done deal, I will be gob-smacked if he doesn't end up there.

Liverpool surely will have to sell before they buy. I think we will be more active than some think though. Reid's just gone out on loan fitness or shop window? I also can't see Jacobsen being happy of he's still not playing and realistically we should shift one of our right backs and get a left back in.

Rafa always seems to get a result just when he needs it. No doubt things will go for him in the CL in midweek too.
