The Transfer window approaches fast and Arteta has no money
He said so last night with a wry smile, though we Gooners don’t think it funny
The owners will not splash their cash, their dollars aren’t for spending
KSE are resolute whist down the league the team is descending

No dollars
It’s the roulette wheel of the window, a large number of non gamstop bookies say
But Arsenal need to be in it early to win it, there is no other way
We need to sell the deadwood for bucks to enable our coach to deal
If we can offload a Greek and a German or two, Partey we might steal

With sale proceeds?
So successful selling to buy and doing it early will be the key
Not something we have often done well but it’s that or no spending spree
One big deal or maybe two, funded by the sales we hope
Apart from that it is swaps and loans, to avoid the slippery slope

A Gem
The beacon of hope from the coach himself stems
His ability to create diamonds from uncut gems
He won’t win the league with the kids alone, as a pundit once proclaimed
But he will do all he can for the club he loves, and it won’t be him that’s blamed
