the exceptional case
This season has turned out to be exceptional in almost every aspect. The latest one would be Wenger's involvement in January transfer dealings. Despite him saying that the opportunity of signing these players is just too good to let pass, our current form and situation must have partly forced him to take action. I don't know if Henry's contract talk has anything to do with this though.
I would have thought that he won't sign more than one player but at the moment we alreay have two new players in our book. I won't talk about Theo Walcott until he has actually signed.
The first and the most exciting one I believe would be Abou Diaby, the France U-19 captain. He may not have made great impact in Auxerre but this player may just be the kind of player who need a special mentor, just like PV.
The nicest thing with his transfer is the fact that he rejected Chelsea. It takes some character to do that, something SWP should have done instead of listening to Ian Wright.
And it just made my day when the Auxerre's vice president, Gerrard Bourgoin said
"It was a choice that belonged to the player. But Wenger has been better than Mourinho, that's all." Good one. In truth I guess Mourinho has made it clear to him that with Chelsea's midfield quality, he is seen as one for the future. Arsene could obviously offer him faster path to the first team action just by showing him the video of our match against Wigan.
Everyone is comparing him with PV and I think he can be the complete midfielder who is perfect to partner Cesc in the midfield. As long as he is strong, aggresive, brave, and can pass the ball, he is good enough for me. So here you go, our new no 2.
Emmanuel Adebayor may not really be what most of us have in mind when we talk about getting another forward. I really couldn't think of him becoming our main attacking force for year to come. But you never know. He looks strong enough to hold up ball and since Wenger compares him with Kanu, he must have some skills. Anyway, we'll see. That 7 million is a bit too risky for a gamble though.
