BR - By Arsenal Football Club's standards, this summer's activity in the transfer window has been something of a revelation.
Despite the shadow of the now nigh-on complete Robin van Persie transfer saga perennially hanging over their dealings, Arsenal have managed to acquire Lukas Podolski, Olivier Giroud and Santi Cazorla - spending a figure estimated to be around £37million, give or take a couple million depending on your source.
