So line them up, Anelka, Petit, Overmars, Edu, Flamini, Cole, Campbell, Diarra, Henry, Vieira, possibly Hleb and now Cesc Fabregas, our future.
Do we blame Real, why? It’s Arsenals fault. Why? Well everytime we get to the close season and win no silverware the players get fed up, understandable but not enough to leave, then the players get their heads turned and everytime we let them go, everytime.
It matters not whether they go on to bigger and better, it’s the attitude we have, ‘if they want to go you have to respect that’ how many times have we heard that? We are fast becoming a feeder club for Europe’s elite, the players know it, we know it, it seems to me the only people that don’t are Arsenal FC.
Do ManU get that problem? No. Do the Chavs? No. Do Madrid, Barca or Milan? No.
Every year we seem to be building a team and every year we win nothing. What we do though, is lose the players we adore and have been patient with.
Don’t blame the rules as no one follows them, except for us.
Liverpool go for Barry, Berger says he should go and what do Villa do? They sack Berger, that’s the spirit Martin, we should learn from that.
Last season if memory serves me, we sold Henry, Freddie, Ralph, Muamba and Larsson, we brought in Eduardo, Fabianski, Diarra and Sagna, we actually made a profit and were a player down, the season before we were 3 players down, so that makes 4, do the math, oh and then we sold Diarra, before Flamini decided to go, cracking bit of business boys, if Diarra wasn’t what we wanted, why sign him in the first place?
Keegan says he would need £150 million to break into the top four, why? We spent nothing, over the last 12 years. We’ve only spent £20 odd million, against huge amounts coming in, so where does it go? Who knows, maybe Arsene does eh?
Keegan and Redknapp talk rubbish, Newcastle have spent as much as ManU and Liverpool since the Premier League was formed, they just didn’t buy good players.
Wenger has bought well, that’s why we’re top 3, so huge credit to him, but every year we go through the same old, same old.
We can talk success but we’ve never won back to backs and we’ve never won the European Cup, and we won’t as long as we keep giving in to players and big clubs.
Time to make a stand, buy some big players and show Cesc we mean business.
Why should he waste his career here with a club obsessed with youth? Come on Arsenal, you owe it to the fans.
Lets give the boss a shopping list and email today’s findings to Arsenal.
Let me say that this site loves Arsenal, loves Arsene and loves the way we play football, but we love trophies more, so lets start trying to win them, all of them, not just 2 of them, just like the other top clubs try to.
We’ll give you all the list that Le-Grove wants tomorrow, we’ll refine it to the best 4 players, plus a Flamini replacement and a Hleb one if he goes.
People power is the way forward, we are paying customers, we pay more than anyone and we deserve better.
AKB’s stay away, we don’t want your opinion. We already know it.
Have a good ‘un Grovers, today we make history.

Good going chaps!
Wenger did say he was going to sign a defensive player who could deal with route 1 balls.
Is that definitly a defender, or could it be a man mountain of a defensive midfielder? I am guessing its a defender… but having someone like PV04 in the holding role usually stopped the long ball thugs in their tracks.
Any transfer news this morning?
Bugga! I might’ve misread what he was reported to have said then, i really hope not, but i’d take a commanding CB and a DM in the Vieira mould/build, if they are the only two signings we are gonna make……..
Well I think he has to make the signings… If I understand it right, Gilberto wasn’t mobile enough in the middle… hence Flamini and Diarra. So he can’t revert back to Bertie?
Song is being groomed as a centre back… too slow, too lazy for CM
Denilson is more of a cesc… too small, too weak
JD is untested
He has to buy in that position and I think he has to buy a centre back, either replace Big Phil or… LET THE CAPTAIN GO!
Pep Guardiola will push to have several of Barcelona’s fringe players offloaded should he succeed Frank Rijkaard as coach.
DiarioSport says those Guardiola doesn’t see as part of his plans for next season are Eidur Gudjohnsen, Ronaldinho, Pinto, Thierry Henry, Edmilson, Giovani dos Santos, Santi Ezquerro, Lilian Thuram, Oleguer, Yaya Toure and Albert Jorquera.
Assistant coach Johan Neeskens will follow Rijkaard out of the Nou Camp, with Eusebio Unzue also expected to leave.
Giovani Dos Santos, Ronaldinho and Yaya Toure please
I feel Big Willy will leave if Weger takes away the Captaincy. And he should because when the shit hit the fan our Captain went missing. Anyone can captain a winning team, it is in adversity that leadership shows…
Too right Shabz. and Thuram as defensive coach… he must know a thing or two
Hey Big R – If AW takes away the captaincy from Big Willy, who would you give it to??
NEW POST!
It’s a cracker!
Morning le-grovers!!
Between Lilly Thuram and Tony Adams as defensive coach, wouldnt you rather choose Cap’n Adams?
I would.
Watched Real destroy Barca last night and Henry looked so ordinary in that game. Does anyone still doubt why AW sold him?
Gonzalo Higuaín is the type of player we could do with, bring him on and he will score.
