Hello all. Quite wanted to write this blog yesterday but, frankly, London
was too hot. It was muggier than the room containing the world’s largest
collection of mugs, and I was sweating like I had hyperhidrosis.
哈囉。本來昨天就能寫完這篇，但老實講，倫敦太熱了。濕熱得不得了，即便房間是全世
界最大的馬克杯收藏室，且自己汗如雨下。
※muggy = 濕熱的。馬克杯的英文有 mug 字首。

Today, however, things have returned to normal somewhat with the promise of
thunder, lightning, and lots and lots of rain. And, of course, with a story
about Cesc Fabregas and Barcelona all over our back pages. Yesterday the BBC
published an article quoting a ’senior Arsenal official’ as saying:
然而今天，一切又回到往常，有雷聲、閃電、以及無止盡的下雨。當然，還有著 Cesc
Fabregas 和 Barca 傳出令人不當作一回事的八卦消息。昨天 BBC 在一篇新聞引用‘
Arsenal 資深官員’的話：

“The offer was made formally in writing to our chief executive (Ivan
Gazidis), and we said no straight away.”
『第一份正式報價合同已送達我們的首席執行官 (Ivan Gazidis)，我們當然直接說：No

Asked if the club expected another bid, the source said:
被問及是否會收到新報價，消息來源表示：

“Possibly. If it’s enough I expect we’ll have to sell.”
『很有可能。只要報價合理，我們就會放人。』

Which is as close to an admission of availability as you’re going to get,
and rather different in tone from the bullishness of twelve months ago.
只要接近放人的標準 Barca 就可以買回，完全不像去年夏季所說那種門都沒有的語調。
※去年堅持不放人的聲勢，今年就變了。無奈...(／‵Д′)／~ ╧╧

It looks to me as if we’re trying to smoke out Barca’s interest early in
the summer. If their second offer is in the region of ￡40m, a deal will be
done. If it’s not, they can forget about it for another twelve months.
Cesc is privately insisting he has no interest in agitating for a move, so
the ball is firmly in Barca’s court. With their bid for Alexis Sanchez
seemingly stalling, perhaps there’ll be some movement on this one within the
next seven days.
就我看來，仿若我們對 Barca 起初的示好丟了個煙幕彈。若是他們第二次報價在 四千萬
英鎊左右，交易似乎就會成交。若是報價沒有達到標準，他們就別再想得美，等到明年再
說吧。Cesc 堅持不表明轉會的立場，因此發球權就在 Barca 手上。隨著他們在 Alexis
Sanchez 的報價上有所延宕，也許他們會這七天內對 Cesc 的引進有所行動。

The latest on Ricky Alvarez is that our interest is definitely concrete.
There has been contact between the player’s agent and Arsenal executives,
and negotiations with his club, Velez Sarsfield, have begun. It still seems
an odd signing, but at this stage it’s impossible to guess how many could
leave the club this summer.
關於 Ricky Alvarez 的傳聞指出，我們對他非常感興趣且有所行動。該球員的經紀人與
Arsenal 的官員有多次接觸，且對於他所處的俱樂部 Velez Sarsfield 已經開始協商。
看起來是個令人訝異的轉進，但同時也無法預料會有多少球員今夏會離去。

One who looks like staying is Abou Diaby, after sources close to the player
told me Arsenal had rebuffed a ￡10m offer from a Turkish club for his
services. I’m sure that’ll drive some of you potty - it seems like a good
deal to me, too - but perhaps with the possibility of both Denilson and
Fabregas leaving this summer Arsene feels the need to hold on to the
remaining central midfielders.
傳聞會離去的球員中，看起來會留下的一位是 Abou Diaby，有消息告訴我 Arsenal 已經
拒絕來自土耳其俱樂部對他的 一千萬英鎊(￡10m)報價。我肯定這會令你們其中幾人抓狂
─這報價也太好了吧，就我是這麼想的─但或許是因為 Denilson 和 Fabregas 可能會同
時離去，使得 教授 覺得有必要留住僅有的中場球員。
※Diaby 不被槍迷看好，巴不得能賣就賣。但 Cesc 存留的不確定性，讓他活下來了 Orz

Finally, a few people on Twitter have been linking us with Sunderland’s
Scottish goalkeeper Craig Gordon. It’s nonsense. I’d be surprised if we
bought a goalkeeper at all this summer.
最後，在 Twitter 有些人指出我們對英超 Sunderland 的蘇格蘭籍門將 Craig Gordon
感興趣。胡說八道！除非我們真的在今夏買了門將，否則一切都嚇不倒我的。

For now, I don’t know anything more about Gary Cahill, Gervinho, or others.
It might be of interest to you that Arsenal.com have launched our 125th
anniversary away kit, which instead appears to be a 124th anniversary Wycombe
home kit.
現在，我不想知道 Gary Cahill 怎樣、Gervinho 又如何、甚至其他的球員我也不感興趣
。或許你有興趣的會是，Arsenal.com 目前推出的 125週年慶紀念客場球衣，看上去就像
是取代 Wycombe 124週年慶的主場紀念球衣。

Tata for now.
再見~~~(英式說法：踏踏。)

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

這次預購客場球衣的贈品：Wash bag (盥洗包? 先前主場球衣是贈送 大浴巾)
所以，關心球衣就好(還有口袋的錢)，
轉會傳聞任他去吧。..╮(﹋﹏﹌)╭..

Goal! goal! Arsenal!
We r the Champions !
