This week in....1995:
Internazionale refused to sell midfielder Paul Ince to Arsenal - just two days after Highbury boss Bruce Rioch claimed ''yes, we have signed him''.
The Gunners bid �6.5m for the former Manchester United star, but a club statement read: "We can confirm we've been in discussions with Inter but have been advised they are not prepared to transfer the player at this time."
Ince, in Italy for only three months, added: "I'm not going anywhere."
Meanwhile, the Gunners go down 1-0 at Rioch's former club, Bolton Wanderers - only their second defeat in 14 games.
