    Well he's got a cool name, but i can't see us signing someone from the Zambian league. Methinks its a dud.

    Sounds like a made up name from Football Manager.

    It's on wikipedia that he's signed therefore it's proven to be an uber fact.

    I know him - plays for Zambia and TP Mazembe. Scored 31 goals in 53 games!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Decent acquisition if true but I think we already have better defenders...

    Gedion Zelalem is rated very highly by Arsenal, there's a decent chance he'll be a fan favourite one day. Ditto with Akpom.

    Very amusing. He's a midfield enforcer/defender who's meant to stop attacks. He's aptly named Stoppila. English media would have a field day with it if he ever joined us.

    I sincerely hope this is not true. An untested player from an African league?

    Should we be pursuing such players after such a barren run and with our financial power. Do we really need to go high risk? I'm sure this is bullshire, as this would be a senseless thing to do in our current predicament.

    Arteta understudy if I had my guess. He will come relatively cheap. Well worth a punt. For such a big guy he has very soft feet. This kind of signing has always been Wenger's best; 23 year old that no one has heard of in England. I would have thought all you, "we need a big DM", acolytes would be cheering!

    Brilliant name, in all honesty if we take the gamble and it fails it wont really matter that much, coming from the african league i doubt we would have to pay alot of money for him or offer him alot of wages. Not a defensive midfielder btw, more likely a centre back. And we have been linked with moussa sissoko aswel for the DM position.

    Remember this guy from last years ACON final. Looked pretty good, but we should instead go for someone like Mapou Yanga-M'Biwa if we wanted to add real depth and quality to our squad. He like Sunzu, can play in defence and midfield.
