I speak to you today having decided to play ‘Championship Manager’ for once, as I’m often being accused of it, today I decided to play it, what do you think?
Melo is the latest hot rumour, apart from a you tube snippet and a reasonable showing in FIFA’s version of the Worthless cup how many of you Grovers had ever seen or even heard of Melo? If I’m being honest, I hadn’t.
Why then are so many of you happy that we are on the verge of signing him? Why, I’ll tell you why, it’s because deep down you all know that what we currently have in that position is simply not good enough, but many don’t want to say it for fear of saying the manager (not me) has come up short with his belief in a few young ‘uns.
As I am now the expert in the game, ‘Championship Manager’ I can speak with some authority and a degree of clarity.
My question is, if we have been tracking him since his Almeria days (Almeria is where they make the Spaghetti westerns) then why did we wait until he was worth £15 million before we got interested, yes I know we tried in January, but even then he was being touted at £15 million.
Okay, I believe we need an enforcer and at 6′ tall and playing for Brazil alongside the great Gilberto he does seem to fit the bill, the ones he will be replacing will be good back up and if not we should at least get our money back on them should we choose to.
If it’s not Melo, then maybe Cana, Diarra or Inler, but frankly anyone that can do the holding job will do me, it’s the one thing we desperately need to push on, now that we have a decent defender anyway.
Diaby is putting in the extra hours in the gym to bulk up and that I applaud, why then don’t Denilson and Song do likewise, or why doesn’t Ade go to offside and finishing school?
Better news is we are close to agreeing a new deal for the boy wonder and that pleases me, well done Robin, we need you, you will be a star in the years to come, after all the Mancs wanted you, so you can’t be all bad!
I was really impressed with Gibbs last night and can see that maybe now we have a potential left winger in the making, so we are blessed on that flank with Traore, Vela and Rosicky all queueing up.
Getting Melo in the middle we also have the protector we so need and with Nasri, Cesc and Diaby there too we have plenty in reserve, Theo out wide still needs some help and if Eboue goes then we do need to bring in an out and out winger on the right. With Ramsey and Wilshere also in there we now have many options in midfield.
Ade now has Roma after him him and that’s good news, I get the feeling he is disruptive and I would have Nikki B over him all day long, plus he would fund Melo and that winger.
Sakho in for Eboue and the money we get from Senderos, and we have the makings of a championship winning side, and as an expert in ‘Championship Manager’ I really should know!
Finally I really believe that fringe players like Denilson, Song, Wilshere and Ramsey would all improve having such good players in there to learn from, I also think they would not have the pressure on their young shoulders when drafted in to do a job, leaving them in there for 40 games a season cannot be good for them or their confidence, signing Melo and Vermaelen is a shrewd move as they are older and better than what we currently have, but don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater, we need to keep either Gallas or Kolo, but we can get shot of Silvestre, Eboue and Adebayor.
I get the feeling that once the under 21′s and the Confederation cup have finished, we will conclude our business, but signing Hitzelwhateverhisnameis is buying for the sake of buying, him for me would serve no purpose other than to bring in yet another average midfielder and at the moment we are well stocked in that department.
Build from the back boss, the rest will take care of itself, our attacking midfielders and our forwards for me are the best in the world.
And that my friends concludes my masterclass into the game they call ‘Championship Manager’
Have a great day, tomorrow Pedro posts!
Why do people keep questioning if our targets are better than we already have ffs??
We have Song and Denilson in centre mid, so there we go.
PDT, he didn’t mention his blog, but his post was something like:
“Why you guys slating my players and my club. Are you even Arsenal fans? Bullshit Bullshit Bullshit Bullshit, Arsene is the greatest, Bullshit Bullshit Bullshit Bullshit, we had a bad season with Rioch. Bullshit Bullshit Bullshit Bullshit. I am the greatest Arsenal fan, go support the chavs. Bullshit Bullshit Bullshit Bullshit”
I think I covered everything
Lol, Duke! How did he get Rioch into this? The AKBs are getting crazier….
Hey, about melo I have see him play against ajax this season in the UEFA league and he was very good, his tackling was superb and he is the man we need.
I also heard RvP agrees with us so that is very good news. And AW said that he was looking for 1 or 2 oder signing. Maybe melo and tasci???
Is it confederations cup tonight?
*or
Anyway boys I am off, take care, have a good one.
What happened to the Hangeland rumours?
Nuke em, Duke!
later duke. melo looks like he’s our number 1 target now, its nice to see us doing our deals quickly, cant remember the first time we came out the blocks so quick
CHeerrs Duke…thanks for your earlier comments as well mate…thats just how I do.
Duke I know, and that Trabelsi thing was a joke and a half, I refused to use him on Pro Evo
lol inside i used arsenal last on pro evo like 3 seasons ago. we are crap on it. surprise surprise Inter is my team
Pro Evo and FIFA suck, they both make arsenal look bad and man u look god like… that twat ronaldo always scores against me… Glad i got that out…
Good Evenin Folks
Good post Geoff,,,,,
tom
The long serving Arsenal manager seems eager to avoid a repeat, and speaking to Setanta he said: “We lost Hleb and Flamini last summer and we have had to rebuild,”
“We have done that now and the future looks bright. We don’t want to have to rebuild again, so I want to keep all the players together for next season.”
“I don’t want to lose anyone.”
“I want to add to the squad and have identified one or two targets. But identifying players and buying them are two different things.”
Wenger also suggested he would complete all of his summer transfer business prior to pre-season training in mid-July.
The Frenchman added: “Ideally I would like to bring everybody in before we start back in pre-season training in July. I don’t want to leave it until the end of August.”
When did he say this?
twas in the papers this morning Mayank
mirror.co.uk
PDT mate..
seems like Hangeland is a no deal.,.,,its gotten very quiet about it back here in Norway too….too bad really…
tom
mayank,
not sure when….but if he really did then i can forsee good things coming our way mate…
what were fulham asking for hangeland??
considering we have paid 10+M for verm….
mayank… recently mate, they are his most recent quotes
Niraj…
i guess it would have been about the same sum for Hangeland….maybe a couple m plus…
If he really means what he’s said (as it doesn’t seem taken out of context) then we definitely will sign just one more player or not even that.
fulham wanted 15m so the papers say
Don’t know if you guys have watched the “Perfect footballer” videos on Arsenal.com, but from the one I’ve seen, everyone says Flamini has the most heart, etc.
We treated him like shit. Its sort of like the Tevez affair right now, except Tevez actually got offered crazy money.
mayank… we’ll get a DM and i reckon a winger/CF if ade leaves…
if he says we desperately need a DM everyones price go up and if he says ade’s going he goes down and his replacements cost goes up…
Niraj…there were rumours of Fulham wanting upwards of £10m…maybe even £15m
Verms about 5 yrs younger I think. Prob a lot faster too.
Hangeland made some pretty odd comments early on about playing for a team that suits him.
I read it as one where the fullbacks sit beside him all afternoon, with two DMs never more than 10yds away. Not excatly our style that.
Why is everyone so high on Hangeland, I do not know. Fulham play defensively. Its suits him, he plays deep.
Wih the high line that Arsenal play, he’d get murdered. He makes Senderos look like a world class sprinter!
SS
those are all read comments mate….having seen him play for fulham spending couple of more pounds for him would not have been a bad idea IMO….
agreed Sharkey…..Hangeland might just lack speed…but he’s a quality player mate
Quality player in a system thats good for him. Same goes to Xabi Alonso. He has another CDM helping him, a much more hard-working one as well. That won’t help us.
Denilson had better tackling, passing %ages. More assists, same amount of goals. We need an engine in their and Xabi doesn’t give us that.
Pat Douglas Bada wouldn’t make Senderos look like a world class sprinter.
i agree on alonso, he’s a quality payer but is complimented by having mascherano next to him to do allot of the running and hustling, he wouldn’t have that with us
Pat. Im with you on both counts, Hanger, and Xabi.
But please leave Big Phil out of it…I’m a big fan of his. And yeah, I am being serious.
You must have a strong heart Sharkey. He scares the fuck out of me whenever he goes near the ball or an opposition player. The fucking Belgrano turns quicker.
Poor old phil, such a shame he aint gonna make it
afternoon all…
Alonso is overrated. Certainly not worth 18-20m. If he was that good why were Liverpool so keen to fuck him off last summer for Barry? Benitez may be a cunt, but he likes a Dago and still preferred Barry.
cant believe mat you realy think senderos better then hanger
What’s happened to him Tom??????????????
Oh fuck, you meant footballistically speaking
I thought you were doing an obituary.
lol steve….
Pat with all den’s stats no one outside arsenal rates him. comparing certain stats is pointless anyway. Alonso was the best holding midfielder in the league this year should make team of the season. Denilson prays daily to be half as good.
if i go with ur arguement i can also say Mascherano cant play at Arsenal too cos he plays alongside another DM in Xabi.
Never said Bendy was better or worse..justa that I like him.
Don;t get me wrong, even as his biggest fan, he gave me the shivers, bit was always willing him to do well. Toom any people scapegoat him for every singe error in a way that they don’t do with say Gallas or Toure.
He came on against Milan for injured Toure after about 10mins in the 1st leg in 2008, and most of us thought oh fuck, I had my fingers crossed.
He had a storming game that night and did the same in the San Siro, thats prob why Milan took him on loan.
And if anyone mentions Drogba I’ll fucking scream
evenin choy
torres
evening tomstoned…. how are you doing?
Steve u know u only watch Arsenal.
U r chatting bull Alonso is a legend.
Benitez wanting to get rid of Xabi was stupid
Steve – ‘Dago…’???!!! in 2009!!! I thought everyone was past all of that nonsense.
*putting on flak jacket and helmet waiting for your response*
DOGBRA…
Denilson is not fit to be Alonso’s ball boy
He might consider Den as a boot cleaner but Den is banned from lacing
im off guys
Cheers Fran
steve…. lol
cold pint choy..sunny and warm….all good here mate and you ?
Big Phil is fairly good, but the english game is not for him, imo.
later Franchise…have a good one ..
good to hear…all well here too tomstoned…
Franchise, that doesn’t make sense!!! Its the type of player.Masch is a hardworker, Alonso isn’t. Without a CDM partner, Xabi isn’t that good in a team that relies on attacking, possession football.
Melo over him any day of the week. I don’t want Alonso, at all.
all well in Arsenal Paradise then
No need for the flak jacket and helmet, you are right. No need for xenaphobia. I was bored to be honest, so i thought i’d wake the p.c brigade up.
Me bad.
I’m with you on that Pat.
I sounded like Frank Butcher in my head then.
u pilchard
no to alonso here too.. he is just a more mature version of denilson.
we need a mascherano type player…
Sharkey I don’t believe you mate, no one can rate Senderos, Song and Denilson, not all 3 and that’s why I know you only say what you say to wind us up.
Nobody could have that little grasp of what is footballing talent, not even you lol!
That’s like fancying Susan Boyle, AKA Biffa Bacon’s mum.
a ten year younger Gattusso would do….
Alonso is fucking awesome but not what we need.Denilson at this moment is miles away from reaching alonso’s level.Hez only 20 so i think its kindaa unfair to have the comparison
I can’t believe people still defend Senderos.
Arsene is no quitter… and he gave up.
Milan aren’t exactly brimming with good defenders and they’ve passed…
He is a liability… if anything, he was made to look good by the better defenders around him.
I’ll be glad to see the back of him.
essien doesn’t mind moving to barca or madrid.I would sell ade,diaby senderos and song if that could get us essien
That’s what Drogba said… …and did!
nish mate im still thinking Denilson will be awesome…no doubt,,,,,but as you say mate abit to early yet…
So will I Pedro. He’ll save me money too. I can cut down on the pre-match Peroni if he isn’t in the squad. Although, you know that ‘aint likely to happen.
Pedro…the Italian league is going downhill fast…and the National team aint much better…
That’s the problem, we have so many potentials but they aren’t ready now, Wenger plays them, we get agitated because they make mistakes, he defends them and they get ruined, Senderos and Aliadiere spring to mind.
If Denilson was 23 he would be bigger, better, stronger.
Geoff, don’t try to hide the fact that you have a big line for Susan Boyle.
I rate ramsey much more than denilson though.I know denilson is a DM but still.
Setanta went down today, maybe that will send all the sponsorship money down quicker than a Russian hooker.
No but I do fancy Biffa Bacon’s mum, we met her once didn’t we Steve!
denilson i thought was a creative player… but wenger seems to be turning him into a more defensive player.
If milan played with a back 4 of
zambrotta senderos maldini favalli
in the premier league i doubt they will get into top 10
I hear you nishanth! Back later all.
HAHAHAHA is that when you disappeared for ages and came back doing your flies up Geoff?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9L4OzK1EA2g
later geoff
Orite ppl,
If Wenger says he wont let anyone go and has identified 1-2 more targets. How much of a budget do you think we really have this season. That 13M is a load of crap….
later Geoff
melo will cost atleast 12.And another will probably cost 6-8.Surely some1 will leave
i am sure we have at least 25-30 mill.. cmon.. we’re not that skint…
im sure we will sell some deadweight…only problem there isnt alot of money around….
ade=15m minimum
15m = melo
I think melo is nearly a gunner. AW comes with this “we will sign 1 or 2″ he said this and melo is heavily linked with us. Than that moratti who confirms that we have nearly signed melo(maybe it’s bullshit) but i think it’s not. Melo and another CB will come in and adebayor will stay. What do you think????
and choy mate im sure Wenger will buy two more players….and soon …sounds like it anyway,,,
tomstoned, we have surely 25 million i think.
We increase more money the last years than liverpool and they buy johnson for 20million.
evening AT…
that’ll be a good team then dutchman…
yeah dutch,,,im guessing one expensive,,,10-15 mill and one more…
No worries Steve !!
I highly doubt we will get in 2 more players without selling anyone……
well off…have a good one, All Grovers and Gooners alike,…
tom
Niraj, i don’t care if silvestre or senderos are going away.
Niraj, i don’t care if silvestre or senderos are going away.
sorry about the double.
Geoff. I don’t rate all 3. Song I do rate.
Senderos I do like cos his attitude is spot on. Doesn’t fuck about like a lot of our players do, but he has no luck. I’m not convinced he has a future at Arsenal, which is a shame.
Denilson. Not as bad as people say, but not good enough either, currently.
Overall, mainly I’m trying to get across that people shouldn’t talk about these players like they wouldn’t get into their local pub sides.
I would rather love if both of them are dispatched….
Dutchman…hat trick…albeit an accidental one !!!
Dutchman …Melo heavily linked??
Im not sure about that. In England we have a media ‘silly season’ where the papes just run with rubbish, especially when there’s nothing to report.
Arsene operates well below the radar on these things.
By the time the press were reporting the Vermin deal I bet it ws 99% complete. Same with Nasri last year. Then cos the guy dioesnt sign the next day, they then run ‘stories’ about whats ‘holding up’ the deal, even though Nasri was at the Euros at the time.
We all need to be careful how much weight we give to press stories. I mean, look at Melo’s latest quotes ‘about Arsenal’..!!!
I wonder how was denilson when we bought him…he was suppose to be next febregas…. :O
Sharkey, you don’t believe that story. I think melo will sign.
Just noticed that gourcuff was sold for 15 million.Great piece of business by bordeaux.Not that we badly needed him but he would have been a top addition.Milan have gone nuts
I don’t think inter will move for melo.They have cambiasso,muntari and thiago motta.They don’t need melo
http://www.goal.com/en/news/9/england/2009/06/23/1342666/agent-of-arsenal-striker-adebayor-dismisses-milan-or-roma
Ade simply has to go,
He and his agent are at it again. He is a disgrace to the shirt and to himself
Completely agree with you PTG
Anyone know where I can get past Arsenal kits?
He might he might not Dutch. But I’m just pissed of with the fact that there is nothing too thisstory other than some shit reports where Melo doesn;t even mention Arsenal by name.
Marcotti’s comments carry a bvit more weight…butits al avut boring for now.
Thats just how I see it though…..I’m more concerned with who we have got.
I heard a rumour that we are re-signing John Jensen.
Cool BIll.
Now find some danish quotes and translate them for us as you please.
Lob in some made up stats and see how quickly your ‘strong rumour’ is all over the web !!
If you can also change his Wiki to show him as 6ft 5 that will help
http://www.sport.co.uk/news/Football/22150/Agent_Adebayor_would_like_to_work_with_Ancelotti.aspx
Ade’s manger needs to SHUT UP….
Not making life any easier for Ade.
Agent**not manager lol! Sorry
Fuck Ade and his agent,
My real concern is that other clubs have realised that he is trouble and a disruptive influence.
I would be happier cutting our losses on him and just getting him out of the club, if we cant find a buyer.
I mean jesus
The Cunt has basically just said he wants to go and play for Chavski.
the vibe of what i am gettingwenger is he will not be letting go any of his top players under any circumstances,so i starting to d to get very lazy his athink both toure/gallas are staying,its only trearo,senderos,silvestor he is willing to sell but ithe deems, the likes of ade,toure,gallas,clichy,sagna, which i agree with because i dont think we should selling club the only reason i would sell ade is because he has started to get lazy his attutude.it very claer wenger looking to more rufeless and tougher and he going to have to be.
to be honest i have seen this melo player but unless he top top player that is a real leader and is the finished article then i dont think wenger go for him 15 mill he better top notch player,because song and delinson have been doing a pretty good job
I think we will sign Melo after the Confed cup, we wont be able to talk to him until it ends…
Eventually let Senderos,Silvestre and MAYBE Ade go.
Then sign some youngsters. e.g.Hazard+Castaignos
What position do you think that second target of Wenger’s could be? I’m sure its not a CB as we now have:
Gallas
Vermy
Toure
Song
Djourou
Maybe he’s got the ACN in mind…?
samir
i have my dought that wenger will sign melo,unless this player has alot more bring delinson or song i dont think wenger sign him 15 m dm player he had better be the real deal, he cant just be someone with potential he must be proven,i also think wenger will stick with song dm position because will willing let toure/gallas go plus verm will be there
I’d be surprised if he signs Melo. 15M is quite a price, Not to mention the fact that i’ve actually heard of Melo
Leon
I believe that Melo does offer a lot more than Denison. He’s stronger, bigger and an all round better player ATM.But I do believe Denilson will be an as good/better player than Melo in the future.
We all know our DM position is our weakest.
I don’t think Wenger will pay the 15M for him. Maybe 10-12M+Senderos, seeing he wants to stay in Italy and Florentina are interested in him.
But Melo certainly is worth 15M+ in my mind…
can someone copy and paste the adebayor and anchelotti stuff please, my computer is blocked to anything with adebayor in the title!!!!!!!
The agent of Togo international Emmanuel Adebayor has revealed that the player admires Carlo Ancelotti and would happily work with the Chelsea coach after the Italian pursued his signature last summer. The Arsenal striker revealed recently that he was committed to the Gunners cause despite the increased speculation, however, with Milan once again keeping tabs on the player and Chelsea and apparently Manchester United also rumoured to be circling it appears his future is once again shrouded in mystery.
Speaking about the latest gossip in the Italian newspapers, representative Stephane Courbis revealed to Calciomercato:
“There was no meeting with Milan for Adebayor and lately I have not received any calls from the Rossoneri.
“I don’t know whether Ade is for sale. I spoke with manager Arsene Wenger this morning, but he didn’t say anything to that effect.”
With Serie A side Roma also keen on the lanky hitman, Courbis continued:
“I don’t know [if that will happen]. I haven’t even spoken about the alleged interest of Chelsea and Manchester United.
“The player would like to work with Ancelotti, it’s a fact because Milan tried to acquire him last year, but Chelsea have not contacted us.”
cheers samir
Quite interesting if you have not read it:
Brazilian midfielder Felipe Melo will join Arsenal according to respected (if there is such a thing) British Journalist, Gabriele Marcotti. On UK sports radio station, talkSport, Marcotti claimed that Melo will join Arsenal at the end of the Confederations Cup.
After joining Fiorentina last year from Almeria, Melo has been impressive and recently been named in Brazil’s starting squad. There has been much speculation linking Melo to Inter Milan and recently the player stated that a move was out of the question.
Melo’s agent is supposedly in talks with the club and a tabled offer has been accepted reported Marcotti. Defender Phillippe Senderos may be used as leverage as the Italian side has expressed interest in the want-away player. Senderos has stated that he wants to stay in Italy and would enjoy a stint with La Viola.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has publicly stated that he wants all transfers wrapped up and into pre-season training during July. He added that he didn’t’ want to have any last minute transfers in August right before the season kicks off.
That said, the question is now raised…what to do with the five midfielders that are on Arsenal’s roster? There’s Song, Ramsey, Denilson, Eboue and Diaby. Wenger has stated many times that he looks for players that can immediately fit in to the Arsenal philosophy of play.
During the last few games, Song looked to improve in the defensive mid position, but his lack of pace and mobility could present a problem if kept in that position. The others left much to be desired in a lack-luster season for the Gunners.
Denilson is a Brazilian version of Arsenal’s caption, Cesc Fabregas. While he has improved greatly, he has yet to prove that he can handle the rigors of the Premier League weekly. Eboue, had a nightmare season, with fans calling for him to be benched and ridiculed at each game. Ramsey, on the other hand, has not really been allowed the chance to show why he was snapped up from Cardiff City.
Adebayor would like to “work” with Ancelotti. Isn’t there a contradiction in there somewhere. Shouldn’t it really read Adebayor wants to get paid a fortune by Chelsea?
http://arsenalspot.net/2009/06/arshavin-reveals-an-awful-lot-on-arsenal-matters-in-webchat/
sell him!!!
who ever wenger brings in going have someone with experience that i feel can mentor song/delinson and i am not sure melo fis that bill.because song will be top class with a few seasons same for delinson.because song in particuler has very very good, nand i just think wenger has has other experienced players lined up for amuch less price tag i thgink someone around 25 or more
Melo is age 25, and full of experience. Been at 7 different clubs and has Champions league experience. I see where your coming from but at 25 we COULD sell him at 29 and denilson/song could take over full time from there.
Denilson and song would still have their chances after some rotation. Look at Liverpool they have Lucas don’t they. The same sort of player as Denilson at the same sort of age. He gets enough appearances even with Masherano there.
But if we use Denilson/Song at DM this season we wont win much. Denilson gets pushed around too much while Song will be at the ACN for a while.
As long as they are experienced 25+, I dont think we should even worry about stunting the growth of either Denilson or Song. The pure fact of the matter is despite development and improvement, neither are setting the world alight and neither are 1st team quality at the moment.
The other issue is that if we lose Cesc, we suddenly have the prospect of playing two of Diaby, Denilson and Song and that does not and will not win us anything. We dont just need a Better player to play alongside Cesc, but we need one to soften the blow when Cesc is out and vice versa when Melo (or equivalent) is unavailable. We have the numbers but we dont have the depth of quality.
We have to put sentiment aside and face the facts. We need Melo or equivilent and if that ruffles the feathers and upsets the likes of Denilson and Song then so beit.
Great comment that pathegooner!
Agree with you all the way!
Cheers Samir,
I have the same worry as Ethan though regarding Nasri and his confession that he might fill the DM role. Again I think this would be a massive mistake. Who knows he might turn into the worlds best DM, but he is not anywhere near that at the moment and we need ready now players and not another season long experiment to see if Nasri works there. Personally I saw enough when Anelka mugged him off and hit that thunderbolt.
Nasri is an awesome talent but not in DM
hello all my fans
I think we should sell eboue, adebayor, silvestre, Senderos, dinilson and possibly Gallas we’ve gor vermaelen then we buy either sakho, richards, bassong or taylor for defence, then we must buy 2 between Cana, Y.Toure, Melo, Veloso. We should play a 4-5-1 if we sell adebayor if we sell him i think we should look at buying Balotelli.
Manchester City manager Mark Hughes has continued his summer speeding spree by snapping up former Arsenal goalkeeper Stuart Taylor from Aston Villa. City’s England under-21 keeper Joe Hart is set to leave the club on loan, with Birmingham City favourite to sign him.
Taylor, a former England under-21 international and a Premier League title winner with Arsenal in 2002, will serve as understudy to Shay Given.
Taylor said: “It’s a great club to be joining and I can’t wait to start training.”
Taylor is Hughes’ third signing of the summer so far.
EHHHHHH-BOOOOOOOOOO-EEEHHHH!!!!
He is from the Ivory Coast!
He is as warm as toast!
He came to us when Henry went
Eddy, Eddy
He scored more goals than Darren Bent
Eddy, Eddy
He broke his leg
But he’ll be back
And Darren Bent
Will Still be cack
Eduardo Da Silva
Arsenals number 9!
hello samir
yes samir u r rite darren BENT is shit he is 1 of the easier players to mark in the premier league
So…. How you doin?
“…offside and finishing school.”
———————————–
Quite possibly the wittiest thing you’ve ever said Geoffrey! Good show!
BTW, we won’t be needing an out and out winger as we won’t be playin 4-4-2… As AW says, we’ll be using the formation that best suits our players…
pattg; Djourou also said he wanted to play the DM role…. Haven’t seen him there yet…
i am fine samir would be better if i had lucy pinder sittin on my lap mind you
This Elikobi facker is facking big aint he. Wouldnt want to get in a fight with him.
Stu;
Yeah, he’s ginormous…. Erm, who ya talkin bout???
Oh and how ya doin?
How many bleedin agents does Ade have??? Im sure Ive seen quotes from at least 3 people claiming to be his agents?
