LU Arsenal Brigade II

[CC_Eagle]

I love the club, but it doesn't make me a good footballer. As a character, I loved Eboue. He is so unique and in an age of prima donna footballers, seeing someone who doesn't take himself all that seriously is refreshing.

As a footballer though I thoroughly disliked him. He was nothing more than a backup to Sagna, and the times in which he was filling in, he was terrible. Which is sad, because prior to Sagna's arrival he was a fairly solid player. This is a clear sign that after a pre-season, Wenger sees Jenkinson as a 'better' deputy.

I wish him all the best though. He should do well at Gala.

Really, really rubs it in.

I deliberately have avoided any footage of the press conference and merely stumbled upon that picture on another forum.

Shows you where his heart is. Which he can't be blamed or critcised for. If Wilshere had played in France since he was sixteen and returned to Arsenal, it'd be the exact same.

It's the 'tapping up' from the fu*kwits like Xavi, Puyol and Pique that sh*s me.

What forum you talking about? AM?

Not even registered haha - just a lurker.

You?

Going into an away leg, 1-0 up, with RvP and possibly Nasri and Wilshere available, I'm quietly confident. I've always said that we wont make any significant signings until our involvement in the CL is confirmed. It was the same with Gallas.

Says whom?

Going down tonight! 2-1

I'm not expecting fireworks from either side. 1-1.

We will struggle without Song, Wilshere and Gervinho. I expect Nasri to play.

Good article (for once) in the Mirror :

[Spanner in the works]

For all that he has done for us as a club, Jesus wenger f**ks us around in the transfer market. I understand that talented youngsters are a great investment. I get that sometimes obscure players can be brilliant (Vermaelan for example). But after selling our best players, and having being so close to winning silverware the past few season, I hate when he doesn't reinvest into that kind of quality that was sold - plus more - to ACTUALLY WIN A BLOODY TITLE! Shits me to tears. For example, Adebayor leaves us - where did that money go? Not back into the squad I can tell you that right now. And how about his dithering in the market in the first place. Our rivals buy players early. We wait. And wait. And wait. And wait. Then all of a sudden things get desperate, but by now all the quality is gone, and we have to spend twice as much on players who are, quite frankly, shit. I don't understand it. We aren't a poor club - we are one of the few clubs who are actually sustainable, and we sell our players for more than we purchased them for, plus we have a strong members base and rich owners. Can anyone care to explain?

I think if Wenger doesn't deliver a title this year, and I don't mean the Carling Cup either, then he needs to be punted. As much as I hate to say it, it is the only way I can see this club going from a medium sized buying and selling club to a major player in world football.

p.s.
Why did I not see this thread earlier?

Arsene saying how loyal he is and how he has turned down big offers to stay with arsenal and "you can question my decisions but not my loyalty to this club"

Loyalty doesn't mean you win trophys

But anyway, heres to hoping its a good game tonight!

 

[Ice Ice Brady]

to do what ?

warm the bench

Mata will start on either wing. Probably right.

Say goodbye to Luka too, Twiz.

 

[Twizzle]

fat chance

 

[AusKnightRKO]

to do what ?

warm the bench

Mata will slot straight into the team as he is miles ahead of anyone else they have in the position

Obi
Mata, Ramires, Malouda
Lampard
Torres

Arsenal have bid 13m for CSKA Keisuke Honda, and the Hazard deal is bascially 90% done, if they make the CL he will Sign after the game

Loyalty doesn't win trophies.

But loyalty has all but disappeared in football - especially concerning managers. Arsene, Pep, SAF and Moyes are the only managers in world football I'd even consider to be "loyal".

Source? ;-)

I'd be very happy with both. Honda is too good to be at CSKA, and would obviously help Ryo assimilate into top flight football.

 

[AusKnightRKO]

In a Japanese news paper, prob BS but it gets the hopes up we might actually sign someone, Speaking of Ryodinho i wonder if he will feature against Liverpool reserves tommorow, would be good to see how he goes in our system.

if we can hold on in the 2nd leg of the CL, i can see us making a big splash in the Transfer market.

Another thing ive also heard is Tevez on Loan with us paying 90k, Man city the rest for a price drop on Nasri

Id be happy with

Gary Cahill (CB) 14mill
Eden Hazard (AM/Winger) 23mill
Mario Goetze (CM) 17mill + Bendtner
Carlos Tevez ( Loan)

Out Samir Nasri > MAn City for 20mill
