Prove to me you don’t need a new striker

by & filed under Uncategorized.

Oh – oh, the latest rallying cry was for Arsene Wenger to challenge his team to prove he doesn’t need a new striker, a big target man is not neccessary, here we go again, one week we’re all excited, the next we’re all thinking, bollocks, not another season down the pan.

Arsene, we have lost 2 strikers permanently, Ade and Robin. Eduardo is injured every other game and that may stop him getting back to being the player we bought and Bendtner is out for at least a month, and we all know that could be more, Theo is injury prone so can’t be relied on so that leaves just Arshavin.

And you don’t think we need to sign a striker? Help!!! Maybe have a word with Wrighty7, he has a good idea!

It seems that Johan Cruyff wants Cesc released to represent Catalunia in a friendly over Christmas, Wenger has told him to whistle dixie, well done Arsene. Why Cruyff, how long has he been Spanish?

Please don’t tell me he played and managed Barca, I was being ironic and bitter!

Rafa has got himself into another row, this time with loudmouth’s Souness and cheater Klinsmann, I have to say I’m backing Rafa on this one, but this row could not have come at a better time, lets hope he gets distracted.

We may have Diaby back tomorrow so that could make my selection prediction closer, I think we really have suffered from a lack of height and he may well prove to be what we need, I hope he has one of those Villa type of games and not the Manc type that cost us.

I like Diaby and believe he can be a big player for us, he just needs to know when to pass the ball, he already knows when to shoot.

With two away games on the trot coming up, a win tomorrow will set the ball rolling nicely, we really are playing them at a good time, if we maintain our passing we can roll them over, beware the chav type game, we had 65% possession there and lost, still Liverpool don’t have a Drogba do they? They only have a Torres, Ha, ha!

Ho hum, what price a Gerrard penalty anyone?

Let’s hope the results go our way today and tomorrow we are playing for something with an edge to it.

Have a great day Grovers, tomorrow is but a day away.

    no bk, Im pissed Wenger didnt sign alonso for the reason that he would “kill the kids”. We would be brilliant with a midfield of Cesc-Song-Alonso…bloody brilliant.

    Wenger is a great manager, but I feel he is insistent on challenging himself and AFC to do more with less. He has not found out how to win things doing less yet, and it is getting to be a long time since we’ve won a trophy. He has to compromise with the fans about his transfer policy. He has made 2 great signings in this passed year, but we need an injection. RVP IMO is our biggest leader, and should be captain, and hes gone for the season. Song makes our attacking style work, or tries to and very nearly does sometimes, and he will be gone. We will be vulnerable, and to not inject some talent when the chavs and man utd are not far out of reach, is suicide IMO. COME ON WENGER! DZEKO AND SUBOTIC THIS JANUARY!

    Cana oozes confidence? Confidence in what exactly? He’s as dull as they come, an awful tackler.

    Its like having Rooney play CDM, but Cana doesn’t even have the passing ability.

    Fuck no to Cana. We have enough mediocre player, we don’t need an even worse one

    Almunia
    Sagna-Subotic-Vermaelen-Clichy
    ———–Song—————
    —–Cesc———-Alonso
    ———Arshavin————-
    —Nasri———-Dzeko——–

    Replace Alonso with Diaby,ramsey, hell even wilshire, denilson to be more realistic. That LM spot I think is a big weak link in our team. Same with the goalkeeper. Same with the defensive midfield back up.

    My team for Liverpool

    ……………………..Almunia……………………..
    Sagna………Gallas……………..Vermy………..Traore
    ……………………..Song………………………..
    ……Cesc……………………………..Den/Diaby…..
    …Nasri………………Arshavin………………Eddy/Vela

    Theo on for Nasri at 60 mins……..

    Hopefully Arshavin continues his good form at Anfield….

  7. luke

    Id keep your back 5 and midfield but up front…

    Walcott———Arshavin———-Nasri

    Eduardo is really not in good form right now and this is too big of a game to play him. Given, walcott isnt in great form either but atleast he can hit them in the break.

    Le Gaffer just sign a big striker (& goalie while you are @ it) & stop with the mind games. We want a Cup, it is your job to get us one, or 2 or 3, etc.

  9. gnarleygeorge9

    ……& it is your job Le Gaffer to get us a win @ Dipperville. I will be pissed off if I have to get up @ 3.00am for another Chelsea type performance. WIN! Mon ami! WIN :twisted:

  10. ethangunner

  11. Pat

    Hope for:

    Fabianski
    Sagna Gallas Verm Traore
    Cesc Song Nasri
    Theo Arshavin Diaby

    All 3 forwards interchange.

    Probable line-up:

    Almunia
    Sagna Gallas Verm Traore
    Cesc Song Denilson
    Nasri Arshavin Theo/Diaby

    We should really go in for Adriano…..because RVP’s season is done….He comes back April….plus Bendy may only become match fit by February so we need a striker…

    Is Adriano free?

    If he is Wenger should get him..he has height power pace and an incredidle left foot…he can take set pieces as well…

    He is also good in the air, he can latch to some of those crosses…
