Karl EdsonJuly, the 18th.
IN :
Gervinho, Jenkinson, Mata and Jørgensen (both are the most insistant rumours lately).
+ Campbell but he is not going to join the club this year as it seems today.
Total Cost = £40M

Clichy, Fabregas, Nasri, Bendtner, Almunia, and Denilson are out.
Total gain = £67M

Subs : Diaby, Traoré, Miquel, Mannone, Miyaichi, Wellington

About Vermaelen at left back : he was primarily a left back (check it out) and Arsène said recently he would probably be played as such.

What do you think ?

Karl EdsonI think both teams would be competitive.
As for Diaby, he can replace Ramsey or Rosicky in both teams to add power and drive. But Ramsey and Rosicky are overall better football players imo. Diaby lacks brains.
Traoré is a poor player, and so is Mannone. I don't know about Miyaichi and Wellington.
I suggest Vela and Chamakh will take some importance this season in the team. Nasri and Clichy are a good riddance, but Fabregas is a great loss. I hope it can be compensated by an arrival such as Mata's.

Karl EdsonNasri only gave 10 goals and 1 assist during the whole season. Why keep him? Gervinho will provide more, and so will Mata, hopefully.
