This from the BBC...

Arsenal goalkeeper Manuel Almunia and striker Nicklas Bendtner are in talks with unnamed clubs over moves away from the Emirates.

Bendtner, 23, and Almunia, 34, were left out a 23-man squad that will travel to Asia for a pre-season tour.

An Arsenal spokesman confirmed this was so the pair could undertake negotiations over potential transfers.

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is expected to clarify details over the impending moves at a press conference on Monday.

Please God let this be true!!

With Fulham, Borussia Dortmund and Sporting Lisbon interested in Bendtner and Atletico Madrid and Malaga leading the chase for Almunia, Wenger admitted their exits are only a matter of time.

He added: "Both are possible departures, they are talking to other clubs at the moment."

And on new Ivory Coast hitman Gervinho, Wenger said: "He has joined training today at London Colney, he has come back from holiday and signed.

"He had a medical on Thursday but we sent him back home because he has a family with children. It was so he has time to sort things out for two days.

"He came back yesterday and starts his fitness programme in London today. He is officially an Arsenal player now.

Ahahah Gervinho. Can't understand what Wenger sees in him. Sure he's a good player, his stats prove it, but Arsenal is a much better team than Lille and I clearly don't think he can make the gap.

I agree we should have signed Hazard, Mata and Benz by now but seeing him as a Bendtner replacement or pushing Chamakh down to replace Bendtner.. it looks like a good deal

Also I believe Wenger sees something in him.. his vision hasn't been great lately - signing players like Squillaci but if he sees the same thing he was in Henry and Gervinho can follow Henry's path.. I'll be one very happy Gooner!!

Enough of the talk about Sneidjer joining Man Utd. He's a very good player but I don't think he is the right guy for us, and for replacing Scholes. We need someone younger, and preferably english, so he won't go away after a couple of good seasons.

Arsenal is more like where is CB, LB and Striker assuming they are all fit come game day.

We need a LB and a CB and we're in business. Once our leaky defense is settled, we'll pose a bigger threat. We're fine with our attacking power.

And hopefully Nasri stays. I couldn't care less about Fabregas at this point. I love him but if we can get the money, I say sell him.

Then...gasp...maybe...Wenger will...buy!?

A bit of good news....

Denilson has expressed his ?sadness? at leaving Arsenal on loan.

After the 1-1 draw at Hangzhou Greentown on Saturday, Ars?ne Wenger confirmed that the Brazilian midfielder would be moving back home in a temporary transfer.

Reacting to the news, the 23-year-old told Arsenal.com: ?I will be playing in Brazil next season as I felt that this is a good opportunity for me to play regular first-team football.

Means for chances for Ramsey.. next do smth abt Diaby, Eboue and Almunia!

The man (Henry) himself, it turns out, is looking forward to the same: ?I had an amazing relationship with Arsenal supporters. A weird one, too, though. I know I can be a pain in the neck. And they knew that. But I think they understood me, even when I was a pain. They knew how I was. And I knew how they were feeling about me. Without those fans, I?d never have done what I did. The people who worked around the Club, too. They helped me understand what it meant to play for the Club. You know: what it meant to beat Tottenham!

"You need big shoulders to play for Arsenal. The cannon is heavy. But the supporters see everything. They see what you?re doing, what you?re trying to do. It?s a great thing about English fans. Winning helps but, if you play hard and respect the shirt, they remember that. And that?s something priceless for me.?

Something rare nowadays.. we need more players like him..

    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account

      By grunger106 · Posted

      Being on GitHub doesn't make something safe. Like any unofficial scripts to do x or y this caters to people with just enough knowledge to be dangerous. If you want to do what this does, and you actually know what you're doing then write your own script (or maybe just add the reg keys yourself) if you don't have the ability to read and understand what a script is doing, and especially don't run it with elevated privileges. Or in this case just use an MSA, sign up the normal route, and stop trying to push water up hill

      Dude get a clue, LTSC is Enterprise, not even legal for consumers, and ESU is not mainstream support cycle, just an extended security updates period.

      Nvidia is your issue more so than linux itself. I did used it for a while with an old 1060 3gb, but using propietary drivers was kind of messy.
