Lads. I have something to tell you. Brace yourselves.

Flamini isn't that good. :)

He really isn't, he had one very good season for a midfielder playing at right back. That's it. If you want to win the league again, you're looking at the wrong player!

I've tried telling them this.

They don't listen.

He was immense for us, at left back and in centre mid. He's Mr Perpetual Motion. Heart of a lion and complimented Cesc perfectly. If anything he was underrated and to let him walk with barely a whimper, especially after Diarra going, was a massive mistake. Whether he'll shine in Italy is debatable but he was excellent in the Prem.

Just watching the build up to the Chelsea game and apparently Toure will play at the back. I thought he was great in the first leg and I might try my luck getting hold of him. I think him and Kolo would both raise their games too.

Nicklas Bendtner has made the following statement in relation to images of him outside a nightclub yesterday evening:

"I love this club and was so disappointed to lose against Manchester United last night. Reaching a Champions League Final is one of my biggest dreams and getting knocked out was a massive blow.

"However, no matter how disappointed I was, it does not excuse my behaviour later in the evening. I may be young but my actions were a poor error of judgment and something I deeply regret. I want to apologise to the Club and the fans for letting them and myself down.

"I cannot change the past but will learn from my mistakes. Tuesday night is behind me now and I want to use my energy to fully focus on our three remaining games this season, starting with Chelsea on Sunday."

Does he mean Arsenal or the nightclub he fell out of?

We need to forget Flamini and move on. He has played 30 times for Milan this year, all over the pitch admittedly, but he isn't coming back. He was the perfect partner for Cesc but we need to move on. Play Song there or get someone who can play in a 4-4-2 if you don't trust Song.

Man I can't wait for the summer. Cesc to Barca rumours. Adebayor to Milan rumours. Endless rumours about us buying someone failing to materialse. Ahh can't wait.

I think he was just doing an Edu by playing his arse off for 18 months to earn himself a lucrative freebie.

Tony Adams in?

I'd put £1m on Steve Bould :)

Its amazing how a footballer can go from hero to zero in one season. Last season wasn't a fluke I don't think. He would run and run all day long, he would terrorise defenders and finished well with both his foot and head.

Its almost as though he has taken a concious decision to just not give a shit. Shame as I think we have missed his contribution this season. Its no coincidence that we have been off of the title pace in comparison to last season.

I think it would be best for everyone, including him, if he went but it looks as though Arsene will need to make that decision for him now.

He's clearly decent, but I don't think it is worth waiting for him to hit more form - I'd be happy to see him moving on. I'd be really surprised if he didn't perform really well for whoever he goes to before dropping off again. He'll probably end up going through as many clubs as Anelka has.

He can't be worth much more than £10m now though, which is a shame considering he could have got double that last year easily.

I don't think we really need him now. RvP, Arshavin, Bendtner and Edu should all be getting in the first 11 ahead of him if it wasn't for injuries.

I bet Vela could be played up front too.

I think we're agreed, I'll fire off an email to AC Milan later and let them know.

I think we could quite easily still get about £15-20million for him, which isn't bad for a player like Adebayor.

Where he went wrong after his one good season, was to believe all his own hype, he decided that money was the most important thing, lost his hunger, and seemed to decide that because he was so good he didn't really need to give 100% and about 75% would be good enough.

Oh and also, he still hasn't quite been able to work out the offside rule and how it works.

Specifically any Henry comparisons he made. That is surely the only explanation for his hiking off down the left-wing so often. I swear at one point in the Man Utd game he tried to cross to himself - or at the very least was surprised when it turned out the central striker wasn't waiting for a ball in.

If we get £20m I'll be amazed. We don't seem to do good deals at the best of times, and that would be a VERY good deal.

AC Milan president Silvio Berlusconi has ruled out a move for Arsenal striker Emmanuel Adebayor.

The Togo hitman has been linked with a move to the Italian side following a disappointing European and Serie A campaign.

However, Berlusconi laughed off a move for the Gunners marksman when asked to sign the player by a group of students.

"How? Not just Ronaldinho, but Adebayor too? I'd really have to pay," the Italian Prime Minister responded.

"Adebayor? We are already very strong as we are."

Made me chuckle. I think we would have sold him last year if they met our valuation, whatever that was.

In hindsight it would have been for the best but on the back of the season he had we had to hold onto him.

He is still our second highest goalscorer this season even with some time off injured but even so, there needs to be a big change in attitude on the pitch.
