Arsenal might not have signed any big names this summer yet - but boss Arsene Wenger is certainly doing his best to get the word out about the Gunners.

The Frenchman is out in Brazil at the World Cup as a pundit for television in his homeland and has been spotted sporting an array of Arsenal-branded clothing during the trip.

But the North London club's new kit sponsors Puma might not be so happy - with Wenger so far picking out the club's old Nike gear from his wardrobe.

He was spotted at dinner with football royalty in the form of Fabio Cannavaro, Christian Vieri and Juan Sebastian Veron in an Arsenal Nike training top, and showed off the club crest on his trousers during a television interview too.

Some Gunners fans have grown frustrated at Wenger's media duties while their club fail to produce the goods in the transfer market - although Chile's Alexis Sanchez is rumoured to be on his way.

Wenger, though, can still watch seven of his club charges in Brazil - even at the quarter final stage. Per Mertesacker, Mesut Ozil and Lukas Podolski (Germany), Laurent Koscielny, Olivier Giroud (France) Thomas Vermaelen (Belgium) and Joel Campbell (Costa Rica) are all still in the competition.

I am an Arsenal fan, so I am glad Arsène is in Brazil deciding whom he won't spend money on!

The only thing funnier than uniteds season is the Arsenal fans arrogance. Wigan win them the Fa cup and the last decade is forgotten lol. Though unfortunately Van Gaal will make United contenders while the specialist in failure will continue his legacy LOL!

If Man City couldn't beat Wigan twice what makes you think they could win the FA Cup, you're a muppeet

But Wenger is on the look out for players. He's about to offer two year deals to Cannavaro, Veron and Vieri!

Wenger is holidaying in Brazil and other teams are signing players who Arsenal are thinking to sign. Who cares Wenger. Dean said that Arsenal will pay much more for signing players after the world cup. There must be something wrong at Arsenal???

The fact he is at the WC, don't mean he has access to players on 'national duty', that is not how it works !! it is still the same channel he will use. this Brazil thing is just for more money into his personal account, its not for AFC's benefit. he has been to loads, since 2004 till date yet he hasn't won anything, save for the FA cup this season and he clearly hasn't signed any world class players too.. he is entitled to his holiday, but I doubt he was given a 3 months holiday break at £8m per year. World class players just don't rate him.no more, we were snubbed by everybody last year and got a very over rated player for £42.5m !

Last summer Arsenal linked closely with top players = Higuaim and Suarez, and got nether. This summer linked heavily with Sanchez and Casillas, watch this space, we shall see!

I Think the jacket in the two shades of grey is very nice but the colours are not very ARSENAL like. THE 1993 TO 1994 THREE QUARTER LENGTH WINTER COAT WITH RED AND WHITE STRIPES ON THE ELBOW PARTS ON THE SLEEVES WAS MUCH NICER AND I MISS BEING A 19 YEAR OLD WEARING THIS COAT NOT JUST ON MATCH DAYS , IT WAS NICE ENOUGH TO WEAR ALL THE TIME WHICH YOU CANNOT SAY WITH ALL FOOTBALL THEMED CLOTHING. Sorry for capital letters cannot be bothered to rewrite.
