Midfielder to sign up... er no it's not that Bap geezer either

Lengthy headline which kills two stories in one fell swoop. Camp Freddie's new contract is nearly done and dusted with Saint Wenger stating "It's 99% there. I'm very pleased because we lost Patrick and we could not afford to lose many players. Stability is important."

News just in regarding Julio Baptista's on/off move shenanigans on joining The Arsenal. Well it's officially off as The Pain in the Ass formerly known as The Beast has confirmed "It's very important for me for me to become Spanish.
 
"I'm very happy that teams of that calibre are interested in me. But I've got until next year to think about it."

So that's that then.
