Sorry.

So it looks like he's going to be announced today according to John Percy and James Nursey. Will be eligible for the Newcastle game.

Hope that's true.

Gnarby?

Lambert has confirmed one more in (after Sanchez) apparently.

I think it was more "hope" than "confirm". I would love it to be Ki but it is much more likely to be a loanee like Gnabri who would be great.

Gnarby?

Wenger's supposedly said that Gnabry's currently injured, but if he was fit he'd be in the Arsenal squad (or words to that effect).

Couple of midfielders have left Swansea so if that one wasn't dead I think it definitely is now, unfortunately.  And whatever you think of their quality if we get Sanchez in we will have quite a lot of players who can play in the middle.  If there is another one brought in I have no idea where it would be as we actually do have cover in most positions now, unusually.

If sky sports said he not arriving Untill Sunday, then he's not arriving until Sunday

Don't know what all the panics about him signing before that

Yep, no panic. Colley is saying this will be confirmed today, so good to get that out of the way. Shame he can't play v Stoke but it's a long season

[PaulWinch again]

Yep if it could be confirmed today that'd be good.

Presumably subject to a work permit?

[Olneythelonely]

Possibly. Can't imagine he'll have any issues in that regard though.
