9am Arsenal news: Aaron Ramsey's a victim of new secret European pact, club eye Roma star Cengiz Under and Arsene Wenger plots Italian job

But it could be because a host of Premier League and European clubs have held secret talks to curb extraordinary wage demands.

RAM RAID

The Wales midfielder is mystified as to why  his club Arsenal have withdrawn their offer of a new  contract to replace the one which expires at the end of this season.

AC UP HIS SLEEVE

ARSENE WENGER could become the new manager of AC Milan, should they decide to dispense with the services of club legend Gennaro Gattuso.

Former Gunners Chief Executive Ivan Gazidis is moving to the San Siro next week and remains a big fan of the Frenchman.

UNDER THE COSH

UNAI EMERY is lining up a £44.5m January bid for Roma star Cengiz Under.

The Turkey international has been hugely impressive for club and country and is also wanted by Man City and Bayern Munich.

SHOT IN THE ARM

UNAI EMERY has revealed his half-time team talk inspired Arsenal to victory over Sporting Lisbon.

The Gunners had looked more likely to suffer their first defeat in 11 at the break – but Danny Welbeck struck to give them another win.

DAN THE MAN

ARSENAL fans will be pleased with the strength in depth in the squad after Danny Welbeck's winner against Sporting Lisbon.

It meant the England international has now scored more goals in all competitions than Manchester United's first-choice Romelu Lukaku – despite playing 636 fewer minutes.

DREAD TO THINK

PAUL MERSON is predicting Arsenal's incredible winning run could be a disastrous end.

The ex-Gunners ace thinks they will lose to Liverpool next weekend, with Crystal Palace and Blackpool coming up first.
