News Roundup 7/12/10 - The Day After Edition

Arsene Wenger is very disappointed in FC Barcelona. But, who isn't? Pic via Daily Mirror.
  • Cesc Fabregas won the World Cup. Robin van Persie did not win the World Cup. I, also, did not win the World Cup. Neither did you. Unless you play for Spain. In which case, there's a good chance you also play for Barcelona. In which case, I'm going to have to ask you to stop being a jerk and tapping up Cesc. Thanks!
  • New FC Barcelona president Sandro Rosell flew to South Africa specifically to talk to Arsene Wenger about the Fabregas transfer. Wenger refused to meet about the topic. [Daily Mirror]
  • Also not talking about the Fabregas transfer: Cesc Fabregas. [Sky Sports]
  • Impending additions: Mark Schwarzer and Joe Cole? Schwarzer is obviously only a one-year solution to the goalkeeping problem, since he's about 78 years old. [Daily Telegraph]
  • Not an impending addition: Yoann Gourcuff. [Sky Sports]
  • Formerly linked with Arsenal, but now going to West Ham: Loic Remy. [Daily Mail]
  • Still probably leaving to either Celtic or Sunderland, but we won't know until after his honeymoon: Sol Campbell. [BBC]
  • Probably going back to Spain: Manuel Almunia. [The People]
  • Arsenal's first pre-season friendly: Five days from now.
  • My overuse of colons in this news roundup: Highly annoying.
  • I'll stop: Now.
