Football FanCast columnist Todd White believes that Arsenal fans should have more faith in their ‘professor.'

A huge amount has been written in the past few weeks about Arsene Wenger and his reluctance to improve on his Arsenal squad. The arrivals of Samir Nasri and Aaron Ramsey are not deemed as sufficient in the eyes of the supporters, but I ask the question - has Wenger ever really let you down before?

Football FanCast columnist Jerome Johnstone feels that it is time that clubs accept that ‘tapping up' is just part of the game.

Tapping up of players is something that has been going on for years. Whether it is done through an elicit meeting, player orchestrated or openly within the media; it is something that will always continue and really something that the authorities can do little to stop.

Football FanCast columnist Alex Dimond turns his attention to the summer transfers and who will prove to be the best bit of business.

The summer transfer window always brings with it the arrival of a few new faces. Some cost millions of pounds; some cost less than a smile. Either way, all of them are looking to prove they deserve to play at their new club, in one of the best leagues in the world.

Football FanCast columnist Jim Sessions wonders if Emmanuel Adebayor is set to return to Arsenal with his tail very much between his legs.

I'm sure that I am not the only Arsenal supporter that has been bemused by the carry ons at N5 this summer. It is has been one thing after another, a total circus at times and to be honest I have reached a point where I couldn't care less.

Football FanCast columnist Rob Facey looks at the thinning Arsenal midfield and asks, once again, whether Arsene Wenger just needs to bite the bullet and buy a player who does not need years of mentoring and development.

After Hleb finally arrived at the Nou Camp yesterday, his former boss seemed indifferent after losing a player that was once expected to produce so much.

Football FanCast columnist Bill Mathews feels it time the club pulled their finger out.

N5 has certainly not been a dull place this summer, as we at Arsenal have fallen victim to the Fleet Street sledgehammer. In truth a lot of it we have invited, players expressing unrest, supporters bemoaning transfer policy and the board seemingly having to justify the runnings of the football club. There was a time that the football club didn't air their dirty laundry in public, but seems very much a thing of the past.

Football FanCast columnist Stephen Darwin reacts to Martin O'Neill's admission that Arsenal have contacted him about Gareth Barry and wonders which club represents the best career move for the Villa captain.

Gareth Barry must be a tad uncertain about where his future lies at the moment. The England midfielder was clear in his admission that he wanted to join Liverpool but now it seems that Arsenal have entered the race for his signature. It looks increasingly unlikely that Barry will stay in Birmingham so will it be the Emirates or Anfield for the Villa captain and what exactly will influence his decision?

Football FanCast columnist Stephen Darwin feels that Andrei Arshavin would be wise to join Arsenal and sees them as the perfect match.

It may have taken him a while, but Andrei Arshavin has finally announced himself to the footballing world. A string of impressive performances at Euro 2008 helped take rank outsiders Russia all the way to the semi-finals and has attracted the attention of a selection of Europe's elite clubs in the process. Barcelona and Chelsea have made no secret of their desire to land the 27-year-old Zenit St. Petersburg starlet, although the creative attacking midfielder seemingly has his heart firmly set on only one destination, and that's Arsenal.
