POOM POOM POOM POOM I Want You In My Room....
It is being reported that Le Boss has ended his search for a keeper by swooping for Sunderland's Mart Poom.A loan deal has been agreed until 1st December after which a permanent move will be discussed.
This guy apparently needs four more weeks on the treatment table...so WHO IS GOING IN GOAL FOR THE FIRST CHAMPIONS LEAGUE GAMES?!?!?! ALMUNIA?!?!
What the hell is going on people....?!?

Hoorah. Another great signing!
i have been saying for a long while ,and i`ve been proved right,how can you call abloke who is not fit for amonth a signing.plus he is not the gk to push jens and almunia even if it`s not that hard to push almunia.i wish aw had not bothered in the end if he is the only person we could sign.
aw has just embarrassed the club and the supporters who have to face the yids and chavs at work
what r u talking about anon 3:49? you cant seriously think that the spurs supporters have something to boast about to us now do you. 1 worthless cup since 1991 compared to our 3 titles, 5 FA Cups, 1 coca cola cup and 1 European cup winners cup. do me a favour. even this season they're only a point ahead having played a game more. as for chelsea, who could n't win the league with an average of 10mil a month being spent in 2 years?
Jack its embarrassing because they make better signings now.
how can a GK fail a medical but sign for another team i.e.viera.but another GK who can`t play for four weeks because he`s injured, who`s 33 years old it is beyond a joke.not only will spurs supporters will be laughing at us but all the supports inthe league will.
seriously, let them laugh. its happened before and we've always come out laughing. they're all cunts who deep down know how good we really are
jack 4 titles since 91 mate not 3
wasn't including 91 sere as did not count the scum fa cup win in same year
i know we are building a new ground BUT THT HELL IS ALL THE MONEY THAT AW GOT TO SPEND FUCKING GONE.imean poom for gods sake
we never signed viera because he is 5 foot nothing the failed medical thing is just a smokescreen,plus the medical is used to ensure you investment is not a cripple you can still sign him if he does not pass but will cost more to insure until he passes a medical down the line sometime,a good example of a club signing a player even though he failed a medical is real with woodgate,although i bet they wish they never at the mo
ok jack my apologies you should of though a title is better than a cup
Sunderland fan here - Poom is a great keeper and better that the two you have at the moment!!!
Serge..If we did'nt sign Viera because of his height, what the fuck was he doing here discussing personal terms and having the medical.
Fuck, write something worthwhile.
complete waste of time and he is bloody injured
From a Sunderland fan, Poooom is an excellent Keeper, he won;t let you down.
Another point to prove me right.i said here earlier about POOM some yids dis agreed,
To be real its sad to see Arsenal go for a third choice keeper of a newly promoted team.what a joke.
You are going to say he is good or he was good,i dont care what the f*k you gonna say but at the end of it all he is a third choice.worst, he is still on injury,for 4 weeks,so expect Almunia at goal,may be Wenger will bring in Vita Manone on bench during that game to back Almunia.another revelation of Wengers inability to sign a good keeper.
can someone tell me why AW bothered buying a third choice g golaie
and an injured one at that
laughing stock
Poom's on £40k a week, fellas, so thanks for saving us a fortune!!!
Poom was a decent keeper a few years back. But I have to say that anyone who questions Wenger is a cunt.
Look at what the man has done for this club, he has never signed great keepers so lets get on with it. Look at the state the club was in when wenger took over.
Wenger is a legend.
Stupot
hmmmm, Poom good loan signing will tie us over for a while, in case you lot forgot he done a hell of alot a derby a few years back and helped them stay up, United even tried to sign him, it may be a case of get someone better than almunia till jan or next year and then get who we really want (ie isaksson)
also viera did 'fail the medical' because he was only 5 foot or something like that, the reason they didnt pick up on it when he was discussing personal terms was coz we talked to him agent and not him directly therefore we didnt see him till the medical
Spurs fan here, I cannot stop laughing, your new hero poom. why dont you all come back at me about how many titles & cups you have won, but the fact is its all history just like your pathetic team now. Sunderlands 3/4th choice keeper how funny is that. we beat you to defoe, carrick & now jenas & to think we used to be the laughing stock. once you fail to make the champions league this season & henry leaves you, we can just sit back watch you go broke then buy the new stadium off the administrators for a £10. ha ha ha ha ha ha
I don't really know what the hell Wenger is thinking. A dude who hasn't played a single game since October 2004 to cover for Jens and Manuel while he is injured for about four weeks to go... And Jenas signed for the Spurs today, so who is Wenger's promised Vieira-replacement. And how will he sign that player before midnight?
Wenger, you'd better be up to something really good, cause I don't get this. You DO have the money, but why don't you use it? Will you wait untill the winter-transferwindow?? That might just be too late to save the season...
Stupot.. Don't insult fellow gooners for voicing our opinions.
Does anyone really believe that wenger was going to sign a keeper he had never seen?? he had watched him several times so knew how tall he was.
Mark,
How about we get rid of Wenger and get fucking Joll in? you cunts would soon be moaning then. That great stadium we are about to move in to that we all fucking will love would not have been possible without wenger astuteness. He is the most successfull amanger this club has ever seen since you have been alive so get off his back you cunts.
stupot
Poom scored for Sunderland once.... maybe he IS the new Vieria!
kirt says
should have bought jenas and owen
now that would have good for team morale. Its all good saying wenger done this and that but that was then we need to move forward
anon 4.29 i will endeavour to write something you find worthwhile in the future, but i do know my club and i do know that i was told this by a good friend of mine who is hardly ever wrong and thought i would share it with my fellow gunners, also with the viera GK thing, he is 5 foot 10 and wenger did not feel he had presence for a great gk
I bet the same opinions on this site are the same opinions that sit in the north upper like mutes.
Get behind your fucking club
Stupot
spurs fan, if you wanna talk present day then lets look at the table shall we. you're a point ahead but we've got a game in hand. you cant win dickhead
Really dont have a clue what Monsiuer Wenger is thinking. He's signed a 3rd choice keeper. Everybody knows 'Arsene Knows' but do we - he said he wasn't going to panic buy or just buy someone for the sake of it? WTF!! He let Stuart Taylor/Graeme Stack go which leaves us well thin on the ground keeper wise & signs a bloody 33 yr injured keeper. Really dont not understand the logic there. Anyone waiting for those '2 more world class signings' AW was on about in pre-season can now feel short changed. I just dont see why AW just didnt say 'we fcked, we got no cash so we have to rely on what we got until we get into the new stadium' would of saved alot of fcuking about & brain ache.
AW has had 3 months to sign a goalie
so he signs and injured goalie
lovely
spurs fan,
Take a fucking photo cos it wont last long
stupot
Mr Serge are you saying that Arsene was willing to purchase a player he had never seen. If that is true it is a little worrying, don't you think?
please dont refers to tottenham fans as yids its very offensive to jewish arsenal fans
poom signing is just a sick joke why oh why? can`t aw sign even half good gk
good signings;
Henry
Vieira
Pettit
Overmars
Pires
Campbell
Toure
Senderos
Bad signings
Poom???
Lehmann??
Shaaban
Almunia
The good outway the bad people
I know its not the signing we wanted to see, but look beyond that look at what Clichy and fabregas and Senderos can bring us in the future.
Up the arsenal
stupot
Anon 4.44, your game in hand is at liverpool who totally dominated you there last season & are stronger this so you would still be a point behind. Face facts last season at this time you lot were top, but you have already lost a game. Vieira left a club that had no chance in europe his words, henry is making it obvious to all except you morons that he wants to leave & join a big club!! spurs forever, arse on the way down.
The signing of Poom shows the rest of the league that we are no longer a serious club wanting success.
anon he has done it in the past if a scout gives 3 or 4 favourable reports DD may go or one of the other board members it may have been the only time he saw viera in the flesh and decided no
STUPOT, COULDN'T AGREE MORE. ALTHOUGH YOU CAN ADD EDU, GILBERTO, ANELKA, LAUREN, CAMPBELL, VAN PERSIE, REYES TO THAT LIST OF GOOD BUYS
i think a lot of Gooners are misguided with the fact of cash. I dont believe we have any at all. If we did why didnt AW sign a WORLD CLASS KEEPER. We can talk about we should sign Owen & Jenas etc..etc...- but i dont reckon we've got a pot to piss in until the new stadium.
I make you right whoever said AW had 3 months to sign a keeper.... and signs a fcuking injured one at that... cheers Also to the geezer who said 'get behind your team' fella we are - that's why ALL us lot want The Arsenal to do well & thats why we dont understand no reinforements were made - especially now signing this keeper.. I would of preferred AW didnt buy anyone in that case. Poom is out for 4wks he is on loan to Jan - the fcuker might not even get a game.
Go on Spurs fan! Have your laugh! It's the same thing at the beginning of every season! All smiles and optimism blah blah blah.
This season is no different, and as usual, you'll end up way below us in the table, out of both cups early and fighting to stay above our real rivals, Fulham, Charlton, West Ham etc. In other words, the teams who actually give us a game! Enjoy the Intertoto next season!
Serge...Grow up. The scout must have told AW his stats., eg height, etc..
No club will agree to sign a player without a full report on them, and the manager would have wanted to have seen videos of him if he could not get to see him in the flesh.
Grow up and talk some sense. You are just embarrassing yourself on here now.
apparently the Poom deal was brokered by a shady Russian & some Portugese geezer..
Someone calling others a cunt is much of so than any.let me put it straight,when even the most succesful manager in football looses plot,the faithful's have to voice it out.Someone put it right here,after three months of searching,AW pulls a keeper who is third choice and injured to cover for Jens who is suspended and Almunia who hasnt fully recovered what a blow.so we are left with may be Manone or some lad to cover us agin what a joke.AW is rigid with cash,all of us sh'd realise that.going for someone on loan makes that argument.There was some keeper AW signed again in 2003,4get his name,he was about 33+ can some one remember,he never made it and was realised,what a shame when it comes to keepers.
This bad list has been a bit select!! what about van bronckhorst, manninger, grimandi, cygan that german bloke mendez or whatever his name was!! boa morte that list is getting bigger & bigger.
International football week, we're all getting bored.
But since when was the League table/title decided on the signings ?
So I still remember a couple of years ago when we 'only' bought Lehmann, got criticised in all quarters of the press (and allegedly some gooners ?), everyone predicting us to finish way behind Chelsea, Man U and possibly Spurs. What happened ? Unbeaten Champions ! So let's not just talk rubbish for the sake of it while the league's not on....
I cant believe you forget to put CYGAN on the BAD LIST.or may be because he scored 2 goals?
This is a excellent blog. Keep it going. I'm sure you'd be interested in How to buy & sell toy and baby on interest free credit.
get your point Ollie but things have moved on now - it isn't just us, Man USA & now Chelski. The gap has closed & we have arguably lost a world class player in PV4 add to that Edu as he done the job when asked. Teams like Liverpool & even Sp*rs are closing - we cant keep saying last year, the year before that etc. We wont be remembering that when we aren't top or second. Sp*rs as much as it kills me to say this have made a couple of good signings & will give us more of a game this season.
The one thing i dont understand is we our funded each year by our Euro exploits (abeit not as far as we'll all like to see us go) & finish top or 2nd for the last 8 years or so HOW THE FCUK can Sp*rs be spending more on players?
Ollie i do agree with you.But lets also be realistic,Man-usa which were our only threat by then were on a blip,now we have chel$ki.I dont consider spurs league rivals,they are more of Worthington rivals,where they play against Cygan,Almunia,Grimandi if he was stil around and our young lads,but again they get beaten,what a shame spuds.
Great post tommi gooner
Glad Serge has stopped with those ridiculous posts.
That guy does'ny say anything worthwhile. What a bore.
wow, it's fun on here today.
wenger has a blindspot with goalies. my gran could pick a better goalie than AW. no-one's perfect.
austingunner you speak as much sense as that bore Serge!
Constructive criticism is good.
anon 4.56 dont be an arse mate hundreds of players have been bought by clubs without the manager seeing them until the day of the signing, milan baros, cisse,of liverpool,park of man utd, to name just a FEW, can you tell how tall someone is by watching a video if you can you are special because i cant, dont test my knowledge of football i will crush you,i have seen players sign for clubs that have only been seen on video,and as for embarrasing myself i dont think so mate
christopher wreh is on the bad deals list as well
AustinGunner..
everyone is whinning for the same reason fella. Everyone on here wants success, but not everyone is perfect in their pursuit of glory. We are looking for the long term - but signing a 33yr keeper isn't one of them. Especially when you let a 22 & 23 year keepers go who could of arguably down the job... given the chance. AW hasn't made many fcuk ups but when he has - he should be accountable not just for winning silverware - it works both ways.
austingunner, you forgot to mention the fact wenger has failed to retain the league!! he has his faults.
anon 5.16 and all the other posts as anon you are fuckpig chelsea scum in disguise arent you fuck off you prick!
Serge..everyone is laughing at the stupid things you type.
Businesses do NOT operate like that. No manager is going to put his reputation on the line like that. If he does then he is a wanker.
You know nothing about football, you are just a bore. Though very entertaining with the dumb comments you make.
Crush me with your knowledge of football.
Scarry Darry.
AUSTINGUNNER...MAN OF THE TOURNEMENT FOUR YEARS AGO. THATS THE PROBLEM ALWAYS IN THE PAST.
anondont tell me about business i run a very profitable one, if you disagree with me dont post to me and what is scarry darry school is back next week pal ask your teacher if he will let you post
Serge...What are you going on about now. Chelscum's and fuckpig's. What is all this about. If you want to get offensive then ok cunt face
lehman is a good GK he chucks one in every so often but apart from that very good
Serge..Why do I care about whether you run your own business or not. Why are you trying so hard to impress people with..my profitable business, i know people at Arsenal, crush you with my football knowledge. So sad. Get a life. You are not impressing anyone.
anon there is a chelsea fan that posts on this site who is rude to everyone who also posts anon you acted just like him so i assumed it was him, we nicknamed him fuck pig my apologies if is not you,
AustinGooner, Lehmann aint that good. he's the best of a succession of cheap and shit goalkeepers. that's all....
And why oh why is Serge's stalker, FuckPig, still persisting on this blog?
how can a cheski fan be so embittered with life? its been weeks....
Apology accepted.
Mr.Serge.you gettin into nerves here.Lets put it yo way,I wonder if you first saw Cole right at a glance be fore seeing him on TV or something.did it take you agenious to note that he is short? dont bore us here with yo so called Businesses.
anon it is not my intention to impress anyone just defending myself! you started it by putting me down dont do it! we are all entitled to our opinion i am a season ticket holder and as i invest time and money in our club and have been for the last 12 years i have a right to express my opinions if i wish,and dont expect to be put down by you,thanks
nil you can tell cole is short but can you tell how tall he is exactly? of course you cant, and its your not yo unless you are from the deep south
Seaman didnt look dodgy as an arsenal keeper, until obviously he was past it!! how many goals has lehmann cost us?? i have lost count & thats says something.
Mr.Serge my point is,if AW wanted somone tall,it needed him not to be more of agenious to note that Viera was short,mark you he saw many of his videos than all of us may think.I am made to presume that he was some cole type of height.Its said its all down to Injury mate.sorry if am hard on you
Niemi is available for 2 million!!
Seaman became dodgy when he was past it.Also to me Jen's MAY be better than ponnytail,mark you seaman was behind one of the best back four we have ever had.it all comes back to the style of play and the back four we have
nil no worries mate i agree with you that he should know before the medical that he was not of the right stature shall we say, however maybe its just that our medicals are more stringent the villareals and that is why we did not sign him, i would have preffered we did as i think he is better than lehman, and given is an excellent keeper and not over 6 foot
seaman was always a better keeper than jens but he cost us a few games as well nil! he got done from the halfwayline in the cup winners cup final,groan,but all in all i would say that seaman was a better keeper. especially at crosses and penalties
am gone.need to pass by some pub for some drinks.i hiope tomorrow someone like Torres wil be at our disposal.actually some 5 or so hours from now
AG, i think Lehmann is OK - i wouldn't say he was shit.
any keeper you have to drop for 3 months becuase he's loosing the plot can only be considered "ok" in my book.
it seems that Wenger is a spendthrift when it comes to keepers and his track record sucks hard (hence his blindspot).
in 8 yeears lehmann is the only half decent signing between the sticks.
maybe we should agree to disagree...
good night mate.Serge yo tight
Serge...You are doing it again. Now going on about the money you invest in the club. Can you just stop bragging.
Serge...The point Nil and me is making is that he must have known Viera's height.
Defending yourself has nothing to do with bragging. I think everyone on here now realises how petty you are.
And as for having a different opinion, now makes me a Chelscum supporter. Fuck me. This blog is losing all creditability.
anon i dont mean to brag about investing money in the club it was not my intention i meant that i have a right to express my opinions because i support the club through thick and thin my apologies if you have misinterpretted it and think i am bragging,
have a good night nil anon he may well have known he was not the tallest but he did not necesarily know exactly how tall ,anyway its all irelavent he signed for a spanish club now so lets move on, poom is better than almunia butnot the sighning we all expected
mow is right wenger's weakness is that he cant spot a keeper if he came up and kicked him in the bollocks, i dont think stewart taylor did much wrong he bided his time and got nowhere we should have kept him instead of sighning poom, saying that with over 100 players coming through the club since wengers arrival 70% have been good and the top 15% excellent that went on to be world class players,overmars is the only established superstar we have bought since wenger came
I'm getting so bloody sick of all the whining this summer.
If I hear "why didn't we sign Owen, why didn't we sign Jenas booohooohoo" one more time I'm likely to shoot myself.
Maybe I should, because we're obviously doomed and bound for relegation from the sound of it.
It's pretty clear that Poom is a temporary solution as backup keeper. We have signed him on a loan deal ffs.
Lehmann has been one of our best players both at the end of last season and the the games so far this season. There's no need to panic.
We will bring in someone either in January or next summer to be Jens' permanent replacement. Viera wasn't the right man, and you don't sign a player that young as a temporary solution.
It's not as simple as going on buyafootieplayer.com, search for "world class keeper" and click "Buy" which people seem to think. Wenger has the balls to be patient and think about the long term and I think that's something to be proud of as an Arsenal fan.
We need to have a little faith. There's an ugly bunch across town in blue shirts for you people who seem to think that big name signings is the only thing that matters.
heya, sunderland fan here, have any of u slating poom even seen him play? He has one of the hugest presences in d goalmouth dat iv ever seen in a keepa. Also one of the best close range shot stoppers iv ever seen. never afraid to come off his line to claim balls, n neva afraid to knock players lyk defoe mido or keane outa his way 2 get 2 the ball at corners, crossin oppertunitys etc. i just wish bloody kelvin davis (our so called poom replacement wud come off his line once in a while). gud old mart is no longa in the team because there is a long running feud with him and the assistant boss and if u no anything about sunderland football club, any player who argues with the staff even if hes rite, n arguin alongside the fans views (as poom was) they neva play again for the club, e.g. poom, johnston, bridges and phillips (until reid left), summerbee, makin, bould, quinn (reteired because of it), the list goes on.
So in summary, poom is possibly one of the greatest keepas sunderland have ever seen and will do you proud, im so sad to see him leave.
So come on u gunners, start your poom chants heard daily at the SOL. POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you have seen the three tenors well we have now got the three clowns worth a tenor,and no things will not be easier next year or in the near future because we are paying back £18 mill ayear for 25 years.
Thats my point its GUNNER be like this 4 the next 25 years and u watch when henry is 29 wenger will sell him or he will go cus lack of success, i am really sad the way the club is heading, wil be like liverpool in the 90's good young kids but also 4th to 5th spot yr in and out.
p.s : someone shoot roman abramaRICH
n the point anon is making henry has 18 months left on his contract and the board are saying he is stalling on a new one,does anyone think that we will sell TH14 at the end of the season to barcelona or maybe to real with either robinho baptista or both coming the other way?i would prefer if he stays but you never know, real are laden with non eu players we are not just something for us to ponder
looks like bentley has gone but only on loan i am surprised wolves did not sign him though maybe he should think about it before he asks for a transfer does'nt look like teams were screaming for his services

I wont forgive Arsene if Arsenal win nothing this season!!!! I would not accept an apology from him if Arsenal fails! Lets just hope he knows what he is doing!!!!!
How clueless are all you Arsenal fans? You've got absolutley no idea what yous are talking about. Do yous beleive everything you read in the newspaper? I'm a Sunderland fan and Poom is one of the best goalies in the Premier league. People are saying he's our third choice goalie but not through being only our third best, we obviously want rid of his wages. He'll turn out to be a fantastic signing. Don't be surprised in Lehman doesn't play again for yous.
anon sunderland fan i agree with you poom is an excelent keeper you would not have sold sorenson if he was not but at 33 he is nothing more than a stop gap for us and although he may go on and usurp jens position AW will buy a keeper next season or even in january,but i do agree he is a high quality keeper much better than almunia and a better all round keeper than lehman although i feel jens wins on shot stopping and crazy acrobatics whilst warming up for the second half of a game
Poom is so good that he is 3rd choice at sunderland and that they are willing to let him go.
We are suppose to be a top 3 club. about time we started to act like it
wenger has lost the plot and me thinks there is a cash problem
i would'ny believe anything from a work shy, social security scrounger like a sunderland supporter
Good post d.
Now for whatever reason, Wenger was let down on the Viera signing and it didn't happen. This meant that Wenger had about 2 weeks to get in a keeper, as the deal for his main target went tits up.
As has been pointed out world class keepers don't grow on tree's, so the guy has gone out and got a stop gap and in my opinion a decent 1 at that. The guy might be 3rd choice at Sunderland but again as has been pointed out already, this is not for ability or footballing reasons.
Lets also be clear, Lehman is in good form right now and hasn't let us down for a long time - a lot of people go on about success is always in the past and so is history, well for the time being atleast so are Lehman's cock up's. The guy is currently on top of his game, but you are all so blinded by your rage about lack of signings to realise this. Therefore in Poom we have signed a BACK UP for the time being, we had a gap that needed filling and Wenger has done this in the short term and there are all these complaints about us signing a back up keeper to be exactly that - a backup !! In the same breath people are saying why did we let Taylor and Stack go ???? Yet what are these two guys ??? They are backups even at their new clubs and in Stack's case that is in the Championship !!!! So you gripe about their loss and then gripe about us signing a backup who actually has Premiership and International experience !! Wenger can't win really can he ?? Before you say he should have signed a world class keeper please remember my original post - his initial target fell through so he was left with 3 weeks - so getting a world class keeper in that time would have been a big big ask.
As for Owen - would you really have been happy with that ??? An over the top style striker who has dodgy hamstrings - do you really think that would have represented good value at £30million ( fee and wages) ??
KS
Poom is only 3rd Choice at SAFC because of his wages and MM is building for the future. At 33, he's too old to feature long term, but still a great keeper when fit. For SAFC, its great to get a huge wage off the payroll and loan signing Hoyte is quality cover for the back 4. Just because Arsenal have signed a player from the bottom team in the league doesn't make him crap. FTM
im a sunderland fan n just wanted to say that poom is a brillian keeper and will keep lehmann out of the team after he gets his chance imo. oh and by the way in responce to 'i would'ny believe anything from a work shy, social security scrounger like a sunderland supporter' iv just got 6 As at a level and am going to cambridge university to study architecture and english literature degrees on a 8 year course. thanks. poom will b gr8 for ya. dont worry
