I read a rumor on fox soccer about Arsenal being interested in Malouda. I don't see that happening, though.

So AM, Wing, 2nd Striker are still left as our areas of need.

I think that Park feller is meant to be our second striker signing, unless your wishlist includes another guy as well.

Park Chu-Young is our 2nd striker/wing addition it would seem.

Merte-Interview from 2004: [spiegel.de] Zitat: SPIEGEL ONLINE: Von welchem Verein könnten Sie ein Angebot nicht ausschlagen?
Mertesacker: Seit ich klein bin, bin ich Fan von Arsenal London. Als ich in England war, habe ich mir gleich ein paar Arsenal-Trikots geholt. Die englische Liga
Translation, please:
Reporter: Which club could you not reject an offer from?
Mertesacker: Since I was small I've been a fan of Arsenal in London. When I was England I even picked up a pair of Arsenal jerseys. The English league is a dream, solely because of the mentality there. It would certainly be difficult to say no.
Good to know his heart was seemingly in the move, for what that's worth.
Also, despite all of the expert-amateur opinions out there, he was one of the faster players in the world cup: LINK. Under the "TS" for Top Speed heading

analysis from a journalist who contradicts my speed link above, maybe his long legs just give him an appearance of a lumbering gait? LINK:
•mertesacker: very calm centre-back whose style is based on intelligent positional play; anticipates, reads the game extremely well
•so much so that he rarely goes to ground tackling, consequently hardly ever gets booked, just 9 yellow cards in 221 bundesliga games (!)
•conceptually mertesacker strikes me a fine match to vermalens more aggressive and dominating style
•decent on the ground despite the huge size (198 cm +/-), keeps it simple, knows his own limitations.
•mobility (lack of) is obviously a worry, game reading can obviously compesate to a certain extent but very hard to predict how he'll adapt
•that said, he's very experienced (73 caps for germany) plus an intelligent guy, great character. werder bremen captain. may well work out.

Does not conform with my preconceived notion therefore must be inaccurate.

The guy can't do dribbling moves on FIFA. Terrible signing.

I watched him play once and his shirt was untucked all match. *pauses to dry heave*
No integrity. Send him to Stoke.

from Arsenal dot com. Link to the entire(ly sexy) photo shoot.
So we've signed the captains of South Korea's national team and Werder Bremen. Waiting for some one to write about how we may have digressed in talent, but now have leaders so we'll be better.
