With the transfer window getting its jose effect (sale of Mata, purchase of Salah) and the wind that has blown to nou camp, the football world continues its every interesting series of surprises.

Mata is sold to United since United can’t play Mourinho. The Blues have re-signed Matic with questions over cumulative profit. Basel’s Salah that pipped Chelsea home and away have joined the Blues.

As the gunners, Wenger has said it is “unfortunate” that they are not close to any deal. What do you expect from the prof? He doesn’t want to lie. Any late surprise?

The FA cup continues with Coventry City visiting the Emirates tonight. Wenger is expected to tweak his team and get a win. Szczesny will be rested. Sagna, Ozil, may follow suit.

According to Wenger:
on Bendtner…
He’s been back in the squad since the start of the week and he’s available if selected.
on Arteta and Ramsey…
Mikel Arteta and Aaron Ramsey join the squad on Monday, they are not available for Friday’s game. We lost as well Rosicky, he’s not available.
on the squad strength…
We have just had Oxlade-Chamberlain back, Bendtner back, I hope to have Arteta back next week and Ramsey. We also have Yaya Sanogo coming back into the squad next week.

So, Rosicky is out and Bendtner is in. Expect a goal from the Great Dane.

Will Ju-young Park feature?

Nigeria plays Morocco in the CHAN 2014 quarter final tomorrow and the Nigeria National League kicks off soon. The pre-NPFL tourney starts today.

Hope Federer wins Nadal.
