Chicog Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Not knocking Arsenal, but until they get a backbone, like Adams, Bould,Lee dickson, you will never compete against the man c and Chelsea, they are tough, uncompromising. What are you on about? Firstly, that's not a backbone, that's a defence. And secondly, enough even having shipped a torrent of goals in three away games, only Chelsea, Everton and Manchester Dhabi let in less goals than Arsenal last season. While there is room for defensive improvement, Arsenal need ze "super quality" striker and a decent Def. midfielder before anything else (oh and a backup goalie). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SantiSuk Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Not everyone is on the beach at Arsenal. Great bit of news as Arsenal coins in 30 mill a year from Puma for 5 years. More than any other Prem League club's deal reportedly, which is surprising given the lower penetration of Arsenal marketing worldwide than Man U and Pool. Nice work lads! http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/397989/Arsenal-end-Nike-sponsorship-with-monster-30m-a-season-Puma-deal Returning to slightly cynical non-tribal mould, the way transfer fees are still going I guess it will only buy us a one-season wonder from another club every year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something to be said for that. Ban him Mr Bo - racist slur Must say I find Wenger's curious ckuf-you clothes style rather endearing. Certainly not paying for any advice in that direction as I suspect one or two other managers do. Most stylish manager in the Prem? Martinez hands down. I think Mourinho has been going further down the Wenger route recently - though maybe he has really just been sha$$ing all night and got straight out of bed.

rijit Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 If arsenal were to buy pogba, wouldnt his power and pace be so right in that midfield and up front add ballotelli, and 'managed' to a bit more fortune on the injury front, i seriously reckon they'd win the prem next year.. oh and perhaps an out and out winger, as an option, would b handy.

P45Mustang Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Sanchez looks very possible? SuperMario seems to be drifting out of the reckoning. Can Mr Wenger win the Prem again the Arsenal way? If he does, you'd have to say well done matey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SantiSuk Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 I prefer Europeans - preferably UK, Frenchmen or Germans (including African-born who qualify as such). Racist - nah. I just don't think that those who come from far away (and all Spaniards/Portugese) are stickers in England. They all bu$$er off homesick or somat after 2 or 3 years. I'll get some stick for that and the likes of Carmine will give me a considered researched response that tells me I'm talking carp. Can anyone think of a Spaniard or South American who stuck around at the top for more that 3 years? I can only think of Fabregas and Torres (Alonso?). Sure their must be more. Come to think of it non-English speakers generally don't tend to hang around absent the Dutch (but they are almost English in outlook). Thierry Henri was an exception but the French tend to like working with Wenger. Yours sterotypically Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah as a general rule of thumb 2 -3 seasons is about average, but again in fairness not that many players see much more than their length of their contracts out 2 much money to be made or lost in moving or not moving.

Wassup Bacary, need some free time on City's bench to get your Candy Crush score up? Could be a nice deal if the debuchy transfer goes through. City get to pay 150,000 a week for a 31 year old bench warmer and we pay 12 mill and considerably less than that per week (70k-80k? I'm guessing) for the 27 year old.

Don't see any bad business in that as it's saved us a heap in transfer fees and that money stays in the bank. Jeez, I thought you were an accountant or something of that ilk. I also feel your being a bit shallow to Sagna who was at your club for years and as far as I know didn't cause any upsets, remained professional and didn't keep on trying to change his contract for more money.
