Striker had ‘agreed’ to join Arsenal FC
Demba Ba had been yearning for a move to the Emirates stadium on transfer deadline day.
For much of Monday, the Gunners were in talks with Chelsea over a season-long loan deal for Ba, but unlike Victor Moses, who completed a loan move to Liverpool, Jose Mourinho’s side were unwilling to negotiate a deal which they believed would ‘strengthen’ Arsenal whom they consider as a major rival.
According to French journalist Matt Spiro, Demba Ba had verbally agreed to make a switch to north London which was still subject to official terms being signed by all three parties before the blues called the deal off.
But the blow of missing out on Ba could be softened by the marquee signing of Mesut Ozil from Real Madrid for a club record transfer fee.







Its a gud start for us, wit d likes of ozil, ba, viviano, abel hernandez. But one player i will love 2ci is fc-porto hit man jackson martines.. Gooners 4life.
ARSENAL 4LIFE
Never gv-up ma hom bway…
I am one the football fans that see football as a beautiful game that should be played without bitterness. Some coaches in EPL are SICK e.g Liverpool COACH. One would have thought that Rogers will call his son to play for Liverpool fc, but he shamelessly went to seek a loon deal from a club in England.
Even when I do not like the Special One, he is a super matured person. He is a complete gentleman to have allowed Moses to move to LFC, not minding LFC is a contender to the EPL trophy.
Well said. I strongly agree with you, Bernard.
I strongly agree with you on that point about how the round leather game should be on and off the pitch @ bernard ….
You don’t know what your talking about…… Embarrassing lol
Now wingers is trying compete with other in England nd is ready to fans hip if it i s true.up gunners
we will gun every body down dis season mofe to come
pls don,t give up on Demba Ba,he is anoda good options if u can,t get suares.den buy Ozil and one versatile defender to make a gud team wit gud benchers.
If the words have to be seconded than we don’t néed Ba but we need Michu or Dzeko if Suaraze bit fail
From what I saw Flamini play on Sunday, I feel it a good addition to the squad and with the likes of Ozil, Viviano, Ba and any other person coming in, it will boost the moral and spirit of the team and all areas then has been improved on. Now I can say there is a good substitute on the bench. UP GUNNERS!!!!
Go on mr wenger
Its gud to have ozil,ba,cabaye .I will be happy to gud new about the team I support.GUNNERS 4 life
Pls bring in Di Maria also, his pace is incredible.
Ba, will revive our (Arsenal) stracking force which i think is the weaker department so far from last season. how i wish is a permanant deal.
What are you talking about. It’s the CDM we need to strengthen, and now Ramsey is playing there greatly and consistently, and Flamini looks like he will help boss some good tackels too. We just need depth. Giroud has been on pt. Adding extra striking force (if proven consistent) will be nice, but we needed to start at the back. All that matters is that the squad thats on the pitch plays every game with the intensity they did yesterday, and we as fans must support the boys and the general like we did yesterday, and those vibes will gain us a few pts itself. The Emirates needs to be extremely loud, and extremely positive to AFC. We are better than most thought due to week 1, but it’s going to be a hell of a fun season. #Gooner4life. #COYG! #SPUDSHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Ba, will revive our (Arsenal) stricking force which i think is the weaker department so far from last season. how i wish is a permanant deal.
Funny how we keep saying arsenal attack is weak. We were only second to manu who were the best scoring team even with chelsea and mancity buying
I made a mistake pls
i think wenger is tryin to revive e arsenal we wud kol the immortals gooooo!!!!!!!! gun dem down
Arsenal 4 life ozil,ba,viviano and maybe try Di Maria it will b a perfect deal will love to c at emirates
Ba is a good one. We need u but will chelski agree to free u?
Be it loan or permanent deal,arsenal need to give giroud a little push
I dont think bringing Ba will be a good signing.afterall he is not in anyway better than giroud to me.wat about yilmaz?bring on yilmaz,kaka,and either of oezil or di maria and we wil be fine
I’m willing to join arsenal before transfer deadline. If the team agreed to pay me €150,000 weekly.
waiting
What i know is, we will continue watching the good play in Emirate untill the time for a major trophy we come.
I had never lose fate in Arsene Wenger and will never, for he is an experienced manager.
Kudos to him for the arrival of Ozil, and the anticipation of Eliviano Viviano, Demba’Ba and the rest.
I remain an Arsenal fan till breath fails me.
Gunners 4 life
Wow. I think arsenal should complete dis negotiation. Giroud is great buh he really needs help up front.
Arsenal z back on track wz ozil wearing former wiltord
I’m so happy 2 see ozil in Arsenals colour now we need Di Maria & Harnanez. GUNNERS 4 LIFE
go for BA
He is an exelllent one green light wenger guns never fail guns for life
Never write arsenal off this season
wenger should get all the resources he hav on ground to the world know he can compete with any world class team by resin Nasir, fabregas, van persie, clichy, alex song, ashavin
Thank God for wenger, finally!
Arsenal has responded to treatment
gunners for life i lv arsenal is not a kind of club dat hv tug
in WENGER i TRUST. Without any biasness now, which team have d best mid fielders in epl. Sure we up for GLORIES. Long live ARSENAL.
Oooooshh….!!, thax sir mr comander wenger. U made me chearful since ozil, ba, viviano… to mention but a few, r now tuned in emirates. Arsenal 4rever.
Welcom for mesuit ozil emirate
Mr wenger is a physicologist n a cruel man,he doz his signing on d last day,so nw ozil is nw in arsenal jerzey”i mean diz is intresting.
na chelsea no agree make ba come arsenal jare
Ozil is a great addition, now I want to see Wenger also add to the coaching team. Bergkamp n Henry knowledge n experiences will benefit Wenger n Bould in making the squad even stronger n better. They will further add more quality to the coaching team and take some of the pressure off Wenger.
if chelsea had refuse 2 agree demba ba deal we don’t av much problem over dat let dem go wif thier furken ba after all giroud z there 4 us
if chelsea had refuse 2 agree demba ba deal we don’t av much problem over dat! 0 d window has nw closed wenger has failed 2 add one more signing! well we will stil play gunerz 4 life
The resolution would be suarez not ozil at emirates
Wenger was sleeping , he shd ve strengthned defence n strike force
Morio u r an inconsiderate.
Morio u r an inconsiderate 4 nt acepting ba transfer bid.
that serves wenger right. now it is clear to him that even those he sells his best players to dont even like him. look at chelsea considering the weakest demba ba as a threat if he moves to arsenal.
Internet fast
Oh Alhamdulillahi, we appreciate all that you said about the recent development on the arsenal side, and to me even without this devlpmt arsenal will still do the wanders they’re doing. If we luk at what happen last saturday against Totiham spurs you ll see that wenger is provin us wrong abt buying players is not the issue buy the spirit. I L O V E W E N G E R & A R S E N A L T A C T I C S K E E P I T O N GUNNERS 4 REAL/LIFE
ThankGod he didnt even come
Good bit of reporting there ass. You couldn’t have made up a better story. Leave the news to people with actual sources. Malahga!
I think we did a good business when it came to ozil’s deal,but i think we needed a stricker and a central defender in our team.
Up gunners 4 life,its in my Dna.
Congraturation arsene wenger
Am a gooner for life,Chelsea is a team which to my rating it’s good but the fact that they refuse to make a deal with arsenal on deadline doesn’t auger well.They should remember that we sold to them Ashley Cole on the deadline day,when it was now they turn,things went a mess.Goonner,remeber dat once beaten twice shy.chelsea manager n pplea arround him shld style up
I thnk we av a lot of midfielderz,so da problem z on back-lyn&strickn’ department inspite of strickn area we hav only trustable guy”giroud.o”so we’r suppose 2add new strker..
What a gud signing for arsenal fc,the best midfield Ozil,carzola,wilsher n Ramsey still more to come from arsenal
