Arseblog just leaked this with apparent confirmation that it's the new home kit.

Not bad. *insert Obama face here*

Only minor issue is it looks like it might be a bit too orangey red for my taste. I liked the slightly purpler red of the Nike kits.
Could be the lighting though.

Looks like the same colour as all our Nike kits to me :lol:

Probably fan made, but I wouldn't be suprised if this is the new away kit:



Same template as the home kit and fits Arseblog's leaked colour schemes. Probably not real though, and I'd hope so. I'd want the away to be different to the home kit.

Honestly, words cannot describe how happy I am that our home kit will have red and white hooped socks again.

A great graphic that illustrates just what this means for the club financially compared to the Nike deal

I probably preferred the nike kits, but in the end 30 million a season to wear a pretty decent kit isn't exactly a hardship ;)

So I started to think about how the team would line up if Draxler was signed. I keep re-concluding that the Christmas Tree formation might be the go. Note that I know there are some good players missing out in my lineup, but I think this will be the best way to go about it:
----------Szez---------
Sagna--Per--Boss--Gibbs
Ramsey---Arteta----Jack
------Drax--Ozil-------
--------Giroud---------

Main players to miss out are Santi, Poldi & Flam (although I'd personally be more inclined to put Flam in place of Arteta, but I don't think that would happen). I just couldn't put Santi in solely because I don't think he's defensive enough to warrant one of the 3 deeper midfield spots.

The problem I see with it is we don't have that explosive front wide power that you'd get from say Walcott or Gnabry, and maybe it's too narrow a formation. Thoughts?

Well that was fucking shite. Oh well though, can't play badly and win all the time, and in the end probably a point more than we deserved. What is disappointing though is that their first goal came from a fk that should never have been given.

Flamini is a fucking idiot, and if tonight means the end of him and Arteta starting together than good. It worked once and has failed miserably ever since.

Gotta hope Sp*rs can do us a favour and then we have Palace at home on the weekend while City and Chelsea play eachother.

Some talk that ramsey could be out for another 4-6 weeks.

Imo we 100% need at least one signing now if we want to win the title, even more so if Rambo is indeed out for another month.

I remember saying when he was signed that Flamini was a red card waiting to happen. If I were Wenger he wouldn't be on the pitch in the derby (if he's even eligible?).

Don't hold your breathe on us beating City, we're going to get murdered again :lol:

The Saints are no easy beats sydneycroatia.So dont roll out that old chessnut about we played badly.

This season we`ve beat Liverpool at Anfield 1-0 and drew 1-1 at old Trafford.

Why dont you lot invest in a decent acadamy,instead of tempting other clubs young stars away.
eg : Walcott + Ox

Did you miss the part where I said we didn't deserve a point out of the game and deserved too lose? :lol: Never claimed you were easybeats.

He is a red card waiting to happen, but that's the risk you take with him, and most of the time he's worth it.

Don't need you to win, just don't lose haha :P

In slightly more positive news, here's what Arsene had to say about transfers

"I hope we have something to tell you (by Friday)"

I may be wrong, but I'm sure he said something almost identical a couple days before we signed Özil.

He is but I guess when the card does come its frustrating and it could have cost you today.

Mate if we get a draw i'll buy an Arsenal shirt and wear it in public :lol:

After we beat Sp*rs 1-0 in September, Arsene had this to say about transfers "There are 24 hours left maybe we can surprise you"

Not identical, but I knew he'd said something similar.

My blood turns cold and i go crazy. Whenever i see a picture of Theo Walcott :evil:

:lol: wenger

to me thats all but confirmation of a signing

That's cute.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

This better happen.

sigged

Arteta-Flamini doesn't work, I stand by that. Only worked against Napoli because our whole team pressed like I've never seen us do before in the first 15- it's not a strategy we can use every game.

Also would like to see Gnabry dropped as right now we're playing two am's on the wing and we have no width whatsoever., we need at least one direct player on one of the wings, we could go



or

Oxlade had a particularly poor game for you lot this morning.

There will be photos I promise :lol:

Pretty much, even more so when you look at his face when he said it :lol:



Like I mentioned, he said something similar after we beat Sp*rs in September and the next day we signed Özil.

Yep. That Napoli game at home was a one off. It's no coincidence that 3 of our worst games this season have been with them two in the midfield, United away, Napoli away and now Southampton away. On their own with someone else in midfield they are excellent, but together they don't provide anywhere near the drive from midfield that Rosicky, Jack and Rambo do.

Also, Ozil was fantastic today, still don't understand why he's being criticised when he's still racking up the numbers (whilst having nobody in the team like Theo or Aaron to make runs off the ball is hampering him)

Needs to run at defences more often, like this

Have to say Ramsey out for 5-6 wks hurts.......

I didn't think he had that sprint in him :shock:
