It has been reported today by the Metro that Arsenal have agreed a fee for Bayern Munich midfield dynamo Luiz Gustavo for £14m with Wolfsburg and Chelsea also believed to be looking at the player.
Like many targets over the summer the 26 year old has been linked repeatedly by the usual subjects including the Mirror but has largely gone unnoticed alongside the constant will he/won’t he stories regarding Higuain and Suarez that have dogged Arsenal’s summer.

Gervinho
Ivory Coast forward Gervinho has left Arsenal for Roma for a deal believed to be around £8 million. After struggling for consistency and limited to mainly bench appearances last season, the move is welcome for both the player and the fans.
After a bright start to last season scoring 5 goals in 7 games, Gervinho’s form became unpredictable again after the African Cup of Nations. He showed glimmers of hope that he could be a talented player for Arsenal but sadly the move never worked out and I’m sure all Arsenal fans wish him well in the Italian capital.

Arsenal have been paired with Turkish club Fenerbahce in the Champions League qualifier drawn in Switzerland today.
Arguably the most difficult tie that we could have faced, the away leg in Turkey will take place on Wednesday August 21 with the return leg at the Emirates on Tuesday 27th August.
Controversy
However the big talking point is Fenerbahce’s inclusion in the competition. The Turkish side were banned from the Champions League and Europa League for 2 season following match fixing allegations in June.

Arsenal’s number one transfer target has for a while now been Liverpool’s Uruguayan striker Luis Suarez, but after seeing a club record bid of £40,000,001 be rejected, it looks as though Liverpool may have to sell after Suarez has handed in a transfer request.
However, this does not necessarily mean good news for the Gunners.
Toxic Cheat
Luis Suarez is a player of immense talent. His game is riddled with violence, controversy and cheating, however. He is one of the games “bad guys”.

Luis Suarez’ comments on Wednesday have understandably infuriated Brendan Rodgers. Describing his comments as ‘a total disrespect of the club’, Suarez has been made to train in isolation.
Rodgers has not been angered by the personal attack in which the Uruguayan claimed the Reds boss had lied and broken promises, but more because of the disrespect to his team mates, manager and more importantly the club.
“There has been total disrespect of the club - this is a lack of respect of a club that has given him everything. Absolutely everything, we have a standard at Liverpool and I will fight for my life to retain it. The Liverpool Way is all about being committed to the cause and fighting for the shirt. It’s also about dignity and being dignified in how you speak about the club. And it’s about unity,” stated Rodgers.
“If anyone steps outside of those values then I have to deal with it.”
