Fear not chums, I was being sarcastic!
So the news yesterday was Michael Owen, the Darren Anderton of the new millenium offered his services to us and the Mancs, well at last Arsenal got lucky for once and it seems that fergie has landed the injury prone has been from Liverpool, thank the good lord for that, can you imagine the reception he’ll get from Liverpool fans!
Well he won’t actually, because he’ll only play his customary 3 games a season so chances are he won’t be fit for that one.
Arsene says that Gallas and Adebayor will not be leaving so that means we won’t be getting a new forward and probably not a centreback, so we still have an opening in the defensive midfield spot if he decides to get the company wallet out.
The boss however did say this about Ade ‘If he does not want to stay, he will leave’ now that appalls me, he has 3 years left on his contract, so why give these huge new contracts out if they mean nothing, except of course more money for the player concerned.
Anyway, I digress, I think we have enough players if he doesn’t buy, but I still hope he has a clear out.
Other great news is we have extended Jack Wilshere’s contract much the same way he did Ramsey’s the day before, so we can at least bank on having them around until they decide to break their contracts in a few years time and bugger off to Barcelona, AC Milan or Real Madrid, still at least we are paying them well so none of you need lose any sleep over that.
I watched the Spud game at the Grove on Arsenal TV last night and with 4 minutes to go I watched with horror as Gael Clichy slipped, not to worry I thought it’s only Jenas on the ball, he’s slow and we have Alex Song right behind him, he’ll get it…oops 4-3.
Thing is I was at that game and swore I would never watch the game again… …sucker!
Anyway that reminded me why we really do need a defensive midfielder, Alex will take a couple more years to work on his speed and then we’ll be okay.
On a positive note I was thinking of a fully fit Arsenal and you know what I was getting quite excited, so I thought I would have a little look at what sort of team we could field if we had all of our players, these are my team options, what do you think?
Before I do though, I am assuming Vermaelen is the dogs, if Robin is happy with the signing, then that’s good enough for me.
Almunia
Sagna Gallas Vermaelen Clichy
Arshavin Cesc Nasri Rosicky
Robin Eduardo
Or
Almunia
Eboue Kolo Vermaelen Gibbs
Walcott Cesc Diaby Vela
Arshavin Bendtner
Or
Almunia
Kolo Djourou Senderos Traore
Nasri Cesc Arshavin Rosicky
Walcott Robin
You know what, they’re not bad line ups, we then have a number of super players that could come on and do a job like Ramsey, Wilshere, Denilson and Song then there wouldn’t be the pressure on their young shoulders there has been and we may see a different side fighting for silverware.
Oh and notice no 4-5-1 that was what we had when we threw away a two goal lead against the spuds, it was 4-4-2.
So without the negative thoughts we actually do have quite a strong squad that will be a year older, a lot stronger and very hungry.
What I saw in the spuds game was that Eboue, Diaby, Song and Denilson in the same team when we were winning 4-2 and cruising really doesn’t work and that must never be allowed to happen again, when those four are all playing at the same time the confidence drops and mistakes happen, they can all do a job of that there is no doubt, but not all at the same time, let them develop boss, give them cameos and it may just work.
It’s getting near that time when we need to start beleiving again, it’s getting close to when we have to accept what we have and get behind the team and if he played Coco the clown in the team I for one would be cheering him on.
And don’t say we already do or I will get hammered.
Have a great day today grovers, at least we didn’t sign Michael miserable Owen!
so rosicky is better then all of mancs chels and liverpools left sided players then
Samir that bunch of old biddies whooped our arses twice last year, if you want to settle for 2nd best thats fine by me
Only Liverpool and Chelsea(maybe) can challenge us if we get a CDM and keep everyone.
Liverpool will be fucked if they get robbed of Masch and Alonso.
The window just opened. Give it time. Watch our team in preseason and we’ll see how it goes from there.
i think we have quality players at the squad, who can challenge for the PL, But that’s only if all of our key players can stay fit… Which let’s face it, this being Arsenal, they won’t.
That’s our problem, all of our cover is inexperienced, you can’t just expect to throw youngsters in at the deep end and have them perform with enough consistency.
That is what our squad lacks, It isn’t talent, it’s depth and experience. Sure we have an excellent first team, but we need a stronger squad.
At least that’s my take on it
BBK, Rosicky is miles better than Nani will ever be.
Tomas > Malouda
Tomas > Riera
So yes, he is better than all the other left-sided players.
BBK if he calls me a spud again its guns at 30 paces methinks!!
Samir. I respect Your view, BUT:
Chelsea will improve. They will add Zhirkov, Pirlo( probably) and at least one big transfer hit. Fergie will buy at least one more player and it will be a big one. Liverpool have bought Johnson and I still think that they will buy a winger.
On the other hand- we will end up with Vermy and Chamakh( who is not good enough). We won’t get Cana, or another cdm, just mark my words. Because we are a Club which always wants to do things on cheap.
yeah course he is pat
Pirlo is not an improvement for Chelsea. I do hope they get him. Won’t do any better than Deco imo
So Reggie and BBK. You go and watch Arsenal. What do you do? Shout abuse at Wenger and the Players?
“MAN U, CHELSEA AND LIVERPOOL ARE BETTER THAN YOU LOT! WENGER IM A BETTER MANAGER THAN YOU!!”
I bet your the sort of people that BOO your own team….
Reggie57 i think the reason Samir called you a spud is because you are analysing our squad like they do each year when they say they’re gonna come fourth. You’re giving the players no credit at all. Sure they haven’t won anything but they’re quality and once they lift even a single trophy i think the winning mentality will come. And that trophy isn’t very far. I don’t see the wisdom in writing off the team you support.
lol reggie don’t take no notice it’s idiots like that who think this team is good enough and settles for 3rd and 4th best every year but likes to be entertained by the football which incidently is overhyped
penny wise pound foolish – that has been the case ever since Dein was ousted…
I find it really baffling that PHW is acting as our unofficial PR man, even though he only owns 0.8% of the shares…
yeah, right, family tradition, blah, blah, blah…
yea BBK he is you fool. Not for the 1st time, I’ve noticed you don’t know much about football outside the PL. You’re no fun talking to when discussing players cause you know so very little.
What do you think about Naldo then?
i boo when things are not right im not just gonna stand there like an idiot and take the crap which is coming our way
ok i don’t know much about football pat well said
You summed me up to a tee, samir go and play with your football manager and learn about our great club.
BBK, what do you think about Naldo, M’Bia, Melo, and Cana?
I agree with Pat. Pirlo is another old biddie to add to Chelsea’s collection.Zhirlov is great however!
Liverpool will lose one of Alonso or Masch…
Man U have lost their best player… He will be irreplaceable for them IMO
He makes space for other players. Scores important goals and gave them that fear factor etc etc
BBK, have you watched Nasri regularly with L’OM? He will never be world class simply b/c he disappears way too much and he always has.
I’m curious, who would YOU sign for Arsenal FC?
from what i seen of melo at the confed cup he would spend more time on the sidelines then on the pitch,can’t comment on m’bia,i would welcome naldo in to the team i think he would be a better signing then vermaelen as for cana not been to impressed when i have watched him play
Cześć SUGA3! Hello!
Pat, Nasri is still young though, you have to give him time to develop his patial awareness and tactical game. He certainly has the technical quality to be world class
*spatial
im not gonna judge nasri as it was his first year in the prem i will give my view on him after next season
We have the 2 best full backs in tandem? 1 cant cross the road the other is a ticking time bomb LMBO
Eduardo had 83 goals for Dinamo in 111 games. That’s a stat that should be thrown around more.
well said reggie lolll
Mayank. I didn’t even realise that. There aren’t many stikers who can boast that kind of conversion ratio
“when I have watched him play” which is like never. Anyway, out of those 4 M’Bia would be the best choice for us but he’s African so he’d be off every 2 yrs. Melo is very good and, along with Gila, is the only reason Viola did so well this season.
Naldo is shit so I’m not sure why you’d take him. He’s a very poor CB. Cana is okay. Capable of shutting down the best players(like he did with CR), but I have some doubts.
Alonso is the worst player we could sign atm as our CDM. He’s not made for our system. He needs someone helping him out.
I’m a bit disappointed as to why we aren’t in for Toulalan
Siema Maciek (‘ssup)…
Well reggie they were the PLs best full backs season to last. Do you judge every player by the worst form they’ve been in? YOu musn’t think much of Henry, Viera & Pires then?
Reggie I think its you that needs to go on Football Manager…..
It seems all you and BBK do is talk negative about Arsenal…
Basically if you want a team that spends 100M a season feel free to support Chelsea,Madrid or Man City….
And by booing all you are doing is making the team play worse. They lose their confidence etc.
ok pat iv’e never watched him play good shout
reggie you fool. I’d rather have fullbacks that could defend very well than those like Ramos who are suspect defensively. Okay, Clichy was crap this season, but I’m sure it was a one-time thing and he could get back to his best.
Since when the fook are fullbacks judged on crossing?
BBK thinks its “well said” so once again I’m having a discussion with idiots.
how is naldo shit??????
See BBK?!?! Don’t say stuff about a player you don’t know anything about. You don’t see me giving an opinion of Vermelean, do you? I know fuck all about him!
pat it seems you are the idiot
Alfonso alvives has a similar conversion rate? stats like that dont mean much when you compare his performances for boro
Mayank, I don’t write off the team I support (if I did I would not be spending money on match tickets whenever I can), I am being realistic…
I know a few players will step up this season (or so I choose to believe), but we definitely need at least one player (CDM) in order to compete…
Song is decent enough but Denilson is cack (not a natural defensive player, IMO) – I know he was showing a lot of promise earlier, but I just can’t see us playing well with him in the middle during ACN…
Naldo is shit b/c for such a big player he’s an absolute pussy, simple as that. He doesn’t use his body the way a CB should and he should be winning more headers than he does. I don’t really want Hangeland but he’d be a much better choice than Naldo.
Why don’t I want Hangeland? Won’t fit in. Why? Simple:
Fulham play a defensive game. We play a very open game. Hangeland is a slow motherfucker. If you want to see that goal Keane scored against us at the Emirates a few more times, then you’re begging for Hangeland to join us. If we don’t change our defensive set-up, then Hangeland won’t fit in.
Nadlo is crap at heading despite his height. Very slow…..etc etc
Juhasz is by far better and probably cheaper!
i certainly have not been calling for hangeland to join us
Only one fool on here Pat and it starts with a p and ends in t work it out for yourself!!
BBK, don’t take it personally. I don’t like when people say crap that isn’t true or when they’re judging a player they don’t know anything about.
I give reasons for all my opinions. You don’t. But I guess viewing everything in a negative way makes it easier to suffer the pain if indeed it does happen.
BBK are you mad or something. All you want to do is start fights eh?
May I ask why you said?:
BOY BETTER KNOW Says:
July 3, 2009 at 21:19
pat it seems you are the idiot
SUGA3 i wasn’t talking about you and as a matter of fact i agree with you’re views i think we need just one player(CDM)away and you think we’re at least one player away. I think one of Song and Denilson will step up but i also know they might not so its safer to buy. Don’t see the need to say ‘we’re going to win anything mark my words’
Come on lads, Let’s just stick to the football eh?
ok pat im talking crap you need to take your wenger specs off and observe that this team is not good enough its as simple as that
Quite clearly its you thats the idiot. You know nothing about football and it seems like you have never watched Arsenal.
I advise you to stop talking out your A-hole as you are embarrassing yourself….
reggie, if you want to get in a player discussion bring it on. You don’t know more than me I guarantee it. Polish league, Bundesliga, Serie A, Primera, Le Championaat, PL, even the Clausura or Apertura. Question my knowledge in any of those and you’ll be humiliated, fool.
LOL Geoff left and told get along….
The opposite seems to have happened…
I give reasons for all my opinions. You don’t. But I guess viewing everything in a negative way makes it easier to suffer the pain if indeed it does happen.You mean when it does happen as it has been shit for the past 4-5 years
Bring it on you fool!!
BBK, I don’t have Wenger specs and I couldn’t give two fucking shits if the man walked out on us. I support the club not the manager.
And once again, if its “as simple as that”, then give a damn reason. You’re an awful debater.
samir how can you keep backing a bunch of players who never deliver
For croatia 14(24) what’s it going to take to convince you that Dudu is the SHIT. try this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gu4OD7Ul0Y
Samir I thought Naldo was quick rather than slow, even if not good in the air? Was said to be a real athlete? Not seen enough of him to say myself, just going on reports….??
Its called “support”. But I don’t think you have heard of that…
it’s not called support it’s called settling for shit
I admit shit when I see it: Denilson and Theo
Theo would never in a million years execute the pass that Song did right there.
Fucking beautiful pass to Eduardo too
Mayank no ones questioning Dudu ability and finishing the only doubt i have got is wether he can get back to full fitness after a terrible injury!!
BBK, your reasoning. Why are we shit? It “simple” so the explanation should be fairly decent and short.
A, Naldo is shit. If we go for a Brazilian CB it should be Juan.
Theo’s executed wonder passes before as well Pat, as Song did there, but both need to do it on a more regular basis.
Fuckin hell Pat keep on bigging up Song, i thought you knew a lot about football answers on the back of a stamp please!
I’m not saying he’s not Pat, I’ve got no idea about him, not watched enough German football to have a valid opinion. Juan is quality but isn’t he permanently crocked or something??
A, agreed, but toward the end of the season, Song had started to make those forward passes with more regularity thaan he was earlier
Comparing him to that is questioning his ability reggie.
Also i think he’s had enough time to recover under very good supervision so i think he’ll recover fully. But that’s a matter of opinion i guess.
A- You’d be quite surprised by Nadlo. Looks a real beast and for his height you would think he was the heading “king” however he does not head well, does not block shots well etc etc. I haven’t watched him week in week out so….. But basically there are better CB’s out there his size…
pat we are shit if we weren’t we would not be finishing 3rd and 4th every year
RE Eduardo there’s no reason to believe he’ll be absolutely 100% when pre season starts. henrik larsson’s injury was no less horrific and he was better after it!!
good teams win trophy’s shit teams don’t we fall under that category
A, thats what makes Juan an Arsenal-type signing!
reggie, I didn’t bring him up. And what does that have to do with knowing my football? You’re clueless
Mayank the point i was trying to make is stats dont always tell the full story!!
BBK I seriously don’t get you…..
I’ve never come across such a negative “supporter”.
I really think its time for you support another club…
I dunno about that Pat! It’d be the equivalent of signing ledley king now! I thought it isn’t that he’s injury prone, but he’s got some sort of chronic type thing
What cheap signing are you talking about now pat
BBK you are offering no points that can be debated about. You talk in absolutes and over-simplify. It’s like me coming on and saying “this team is better than the invincibles” statements like these mean nothing when we haven’t seen the team play.
BBK, why are you bringing up the past few years, exactly?
Rosicky and Hleb were probably our most vital players in 07/08. We lost them both, along with Cesc, this past season.
Rosicky is back, Arshavin is better than Hleb. If we sign a CDM we will be competing up till May and possibly winning silverware
No one said a FUCKING WORD about the Kolo-Gallas partnership in 07/08, so they’re obviously capable and I do think that missing CDM is all we need.
it’s people like you that humour this shitty youth policy going,being reeled in by the shit wenger comes out with,we are young, they will get better bollocks we need ready made players now,not in 5 years time
A, Juan is certainly no Ledley King. I think he’d be great for us.
Reggie, you how your lack of knowledge yet again. Juan a cheap signing? We’d have to cough up a decent amount for him. He’s Roma’s best defender.
why is it samir,it’s beyond me how anyone can be happy with the way things are going at the club at the moment
Well come on then Pat who is this mystery CDM you keep on talking about? and dont tell me he plays in the J league!!
BBK, you never told me who you’d sign. Give me a few names.
Dont make me scroll up BBK!
LOOK you fool!!!!!!!
Mayank Says:
July 3, 2009 at 20:31
Al(28)
Sagna(26)-Gallas(32)-Verm(23)-Gael(23)
Rosicky(28)-Fab(22)-Song(21)-Arsh(27)
RvP(26)-Dudu(26)
Only the DM spot is worrying rest is fine as far as experience is concerned.
What’s the story with Juan’s injuries then Pat? I thought he was King-like, always playing in pain can’t play games in a row etc etc??
That big team called Roma you are having a laugh!!
people are happy to just sit there and say oh well done for getting to the semi finals of the fa cup and champions league you did well getting there thats bollocks the only time they should get praise if if they actually win the thing
Mystery CDM? I don’t know but there are plenty of quality CDM out there. I’d prefer one from Ligue 1 since its the most similar to the PL. If not that then someone from the Bundesliga, although there aren’t many hardworkers there that I can think of from the top of my head.
And same can be said about people like you BBK, those who believe the media blindly and believe everything they read. The media think that arsenal can’t win without spending big, well its been done before and can be done again. The fact is everyone has their own opinions and views but you offer nothing but general sweeping statements like ‘we are shit and we won’t win anything’ you think we’re shit, fine there’s nothing you can do about it and repeating it is just stifling proper football conversation.
Eduardo has to be first choice striker this season alongside RVP, the rest need to earn their place
I will be fucking fuming if that cunt Ade gets an automatic place again, he does not deserve to pull on the shirt let alone start.
reggie, you’re making fun of Roma? They’re a quality team. You think Arsenal is a big team?
We weren’t even a big team with the likes of Vieira, Henry, etc. you ignorant fool.
He won’t pat, and he didn’t necessarily get an automatic place this season, he was just lucky. I don’t believe for a second he would have come straight back into the team after his injury if bendy hadn’t gotten injured playing for Denmark.
ok pat,kaka,ronaldo,villa,eto,messi,henry,xavi,inesta,torres,gerrard,rio,vidic,that’s who i want arsenal to sign
And yea, Spartak Moskva a big team? You’re having a laugh?
If all people thought like you, players like Vidic would never get a chance to become great.
BBK, I’m guessing you’re a child who plays too much FIFA.
Realistically.
I think you find we are a lot bigger club than Roma? now who is the ignorant fool now Pat check your history out fella!!
The way I feel about Semi-finals is that you may as well go out in the 3rd Round/1st knockout stage and we would have done in both competitions if we had met decent opposition.
Unless you make the final, I just cant accept the club taking credit for it, especially given the run we had in both. There is a reason you dont see semi-final appearances on the Honours board…Because they mean fuck all.
Of course as a fan you are pleased to be in a Semi but the way we conducted ourselves and performed in both was embarrasing,
you guessed wrong pat
I know A, but we start afresh in pre-season and I hope we play RVP and Eduardo together,
Ade getting an guaranteed start fucks me off. I really cant stand the sight of him, and it pains me that we are going to see him for another season. I would rather we let him go on a free and did not replace him.
well pat it seem you are a bit of an anorak when it comes to football,what players do you think that are realistic for us to get that would transform us into a team that can win trophy’s again
I think it’ll be a front 3 of VP, Eduardo, and Arshavin Pat, and we are far from guaranteed to see him for another season, it’s not worth worrying about until august 31st anyways!
We’re not a big club and neither is Roma, end of. Both teams are tiny compared to their rivals. If you’re going to bring up history also remember that the PL has never, and never will be, as big as Serie A(especially) or La Liga were in their prime.
We signed the great Silvestre from a big club….
Reggie arsenal are a very big English club. Second most successful to liverpool actually, but in europe we’re shit its a sad fact.
BBK- Them signings are so unrealistic….
You and Reggie would make quite a couple!
Both clueless about football! Both very negative!
You could have a nice life together where everything is SHIT… You’re better and know more than everyone else. ETC
Pat we are a big club now, but at an in between level – below the likes of Utd, Madrid, Barca, and above teams who play in the Uefa Cup regularly, like Roma
Pat you dont work as a trainspotter by any chance!!
If no one else comes in, I fancy a bit of this
Almunia
Sagna, Gallas, Vermaelen, Gibbs
Song
Cesc, Nasri
Arshavin, Eduardo, RVP
Fucking Hell A, I posted that before I saw your post
Looks like we agree….For once
BBK, I already said we need a CB and a CDM(M’Bia, Senna, Toulalan). For CB, I’d take Sakho. I do think he’s better than what we have, except Gallas.
Now, name you’re players. Realistic this time.
Btw, why don’t we go for Senna? Villareal aren’t playing CL next season and maybe we can tempt him.
BBK- Personally I believe a GK and a DM (Maybe a real winger) would complete the team.. Almunia may be good enough however.
PTG add to that rosicky walcott toure Nik denilson gibbs and vela and you’ve got quite a squad
Pat
We are a big club
Albeit a big club run with a small club mentality.
Well said A that was the point i was trying to make!!
Nice bench hey Mayank
Well i’m off, nite all…
Agree PTG, but I’d have Rosicky there instead of Nasri. Has a better engine and work ethic something we really lacked sometimes when he was out.
Mayank, 2nd most succesful to LPool? Surely not? We’re behind United.
Right Im off out to get some football knowledge wheres my anorak!!
I’m off as well.
BBK, nothing was personal mate. Tough times for Arsenal and you could expect tempers to flare!
have a great day/night everyone.
out of all the players realistically we can sign i don’t think there is anyone out there who would turn us into a trophy winning team again,if it was poss for us to sign 3 players i would choose villa,lescott and villa
yeah pat that’s what i expect, but with arshavin right and eduardo left with vp through the middle, and as other pat said maybe rosicky rather than Nasri. Oh and Clichy will start the season as number one left back
ok pat we will call it a truce,see ya
I’d like to add to the big club debate before i go though. The time when we’ve become a big club in Europe incidentally includes the 4 trophy-less years as a major part.
Yer no point of arguing at the end of the day we are all Gunners who support the Mighty Arsenal!
Nuff said…
Lescott lol
Also the stat was in terms of points accumulated in the 1st div not trophies won. So yes we are at no. 2
Its good to cross swords and still support our fantastic club!!
I am keeping my fingers crossed on Rosicky A
I really hope he gets back to the player he was, but 18 months out of the game is a long time, and I am not sure how that will affect him. Hopefully he will be a new man in pre-season and show us what he is made of. After all class is permanent.
It is a long time pat, but the fact that his endurance test results are superior to prior to the injury is very promising though! Having the last few weeks of the season, the whole summer, and pre season to get back into the swing of things is as good timing as you can get though, I really hope he returns and by the Emirates Cup shows he’s back to his best. If he is he could be a MASSIVE player for us this season
bbb is a spud
I know and I am starting to think that Rosicky could be a star of the 09-10 season. But he has to earn his place back.
One player short still.
Get another CM player and I think we will have a real crack at the PL.
Without it, we will struggle. It is not just about the starting 11, it is about the depth as well.
One CM and it’s in the bag imo ptg, without it we’ll still challenge, but not guaranteed, but with it we don’t have a real weakness
No friggin chance of Adebayor leaving now!!
http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11854_5414202,00.html
Evening all!
I dunno gooner, I’m holding out for Inter
we are actually the third most successful english club of all time behind Pool and Everton, but in front of Man U. thats in terms of wins and draws. we are not far behind everton but ‘pool are uncatchable.
Oh Fuck
So Ade is choice number 3 for Milan
think you are right, we are stuck with the cunt
Hope you are ready, you tall lanky streak of piss, no cunt wants you, because you are a fucking arsehole.
Forget wins and draws Gazzap
Its all about the honours board, and surely we are 3rd behind the Scousers and Man Ure.
ade thought Milan loved him. then they wanted Dzeko, then they wanted Fabiano. It was all talk. they couldn’ give a damn about him. they know he is not good enough to play for a massive team and we know he is not good enough to play for a massive team. he is reached and probably gone beyond his potential already. lets hope he gets his head straight and tries to score some goals for us.
Im not to fussed about Ade staying…
If he can make it up to us fans by putting in them great performances of the past.
I also believe that Fabregas not being the same this season, Rosicky’s injury and Hleb’s departure all contributed to Ade’s shit season…
Next season is the season for Ade mark my words!!
Arshavin,Rosicky,Fabregas,Nasri,V.Perise,Eduardo,Walcott etc all supplying him with the killer passes…..
Orite Pedro!
How was your day?
Hope you are ready!!!!!!
Sorry had a few Peroni’s
Meant to say
Hope you are reading, you tall lanky streak of piss, no cunt wants you, because you are a fucking arsehole.
If only Ade could blame his shitty football and inability to understand the offside rule on Peroni hey.
Ade has never put in a great performance in his life, he’s just scored some great goals. It’s not a big deal his staying, because there’s no way he’ll be a regular, but it could just prove problematic if he kicks up a fuss at being a bit part player. Playing ade limits the team as a whole, and Wenger wouldn’t accept that
wenger should hold the power with Ade. he should say, ‘Perform or be dropped to Ade. you are no more important than Nik B or Eduardo or Vela. You have no rights. you show a good attitude and then you can play. Otherwise you sit on the bench.’
Problem is
ade is our best paid striker!!!!!
Man Management will be key with him next season.
He simply can’t just get his place back on day 1, He has not earnt it. playing him from the start will feed his over-inflated ego.
We have to start with other players and make Ade earn his place back,
I fucking hate him, but he is here to stay so on match day I will be right behind him as with any other player.
He can’t get his place back period ptg…. He’ll never be first choice again, because we’ll never be in a position where he HAS to be playing regularly. Wenger intends to have a team playing proper football and dominating from start to finish, and ade can come in as a plan B if that isn’t working, but it will work most of the time!
That’s the spirit patthegooner.
Any player that wears the Arsenal shirt be it Bin Laden or Tony Blair they have my full support!
A, even on £80k a week?
Who do you think will take his place?
Someone came on the other day and said Ade was world class on his day… I have to say, I’m struggling to remember a world class performance?
