FFS.
Stop pissing about Arsene.
Fed up with these risks on key positions just because you don't want to spend some fucking money.
It's Cahill or nobody for me.
Yep fucking unbelievable isnt it.
Were linked with Cahill, Samba, put a bid in for Jagielka, etc
Then were in talks to sign Scott fucking Dann who is shit and helped get Birmingham relegated last season.
But then he is in the championship and probably cheaper than anyone decent. If they think this is the type of CB that will keep the fans happy then they really dont know shit.
Pathetic.
In fairness, he was injured in January last season and didn't play again after that. Bit harsh to say he helped them get relegated, it's fairer to say he helped them win a trophy.
We went to watch Dann in a reserve game the other night against spurs' youth squad and Birmingham lost 3-1.Quote:

As it looks like we could be on for a bit of money
Cahill first then go for another, cant see 2 double figure mil buys coming in at the same time so Dann could be the second (tell me hes not going for more than 10 mil!)
Would have helped of Wenger had kist bought Samba on Jan tbh
We should still be after a left back as well IMO.
Well, ok, fair enough about the relegation.
He still isnt the CB we need. Cahill, Samba and Jageilka are all better than Dann, but they all cost more than £2.50.
Same old story. Always going for the cheapest option rather than the safest / sensible one.
Absolutely. Cahill and Samba should have been done and dusted by now and they should both be lining up to start this weekend. But Wenker lacks a little bit sharpness in the mental department, he's fucking up our season again. I also read we could be receiving as little as £18.5mill for Fabregas with the rest made up from savings on his contract and future payments depending on the cuntalans winning trophies. Let's hope his hamstring holds out or we'll have just sold our captain for less than Everton are asking for Jagielka. Wenker is the biggest fuck up of a manager in the PL. He's proving it again. Just look at how weak the squad is going to be by Saturday. I suppose he said there would be major changes, nobody guessed it would be negative but we should have known.Quote:

birmingham had a decent defence last season, in fact only let in two more than bolton. it was lack of goals that killed emQuote:

Apparently we can move TV to LB and Arshavin into the middle, it will be like two new signings.Quote:

This is an opportunity to rebuild the team - I live in hope that Arsene takes it.
Just signing Mata will not be enough - Ramsey/ Wilshere not ready to shoulder the creative burden.
Wenger has to get this right or this could well be his last season.
So what?Quote:

I would say they're all at pretty much the same level.Quote:

Pretty much this. Fans have gotten a bit fixated on a few names and have made their mind up on who to get.Quote:

But I think we can all agree AW has totally fucked up this summer.
Actually wanted Jag about three years ago before he got his England call up.Quote:

would be a very good summer if we can tie up dann and let some of that shit leave.
Frankly, Dann is the right kind of player and that can make all the difference, like Rieira giving Liverpool enough width to challenge for the title despite being a bit shit, Dann would give us commitment, physicality and a bit more bite and that is what we need. Having said that, I'd rather get someone better and this move would stench of penny-pinching which I would hope we've moved a little beyond but if he comes in he would definitely be useful and most certainly an upgrade on Squillaci and possibly Djourou if he continues being an idiot.
I am still at a loss at this "super quality" bullshit we hear every season yet last term we bought Squillaci
Joker Wenger
You're fogetting we're also getting rid of our captain, and other creative lesbian midfielder. We need to replace with one big marquee type signing. Then I'd be reasonably happy....assuming Dann was any good. If not, :ilt:Quote:

Dann :doh:
I guess this means Wenger is admitting we are no longer a big club!
We need Mata, 2 cbs (Cahill and another) and a big name striker if these 2 go....ffs even Defoe would do.

Sky Sports sources understand that Liverpool have agreed a fee with Newcastle for Jose Enrique.
The 25-year-old has made it clear he does not want to extend his current contract at St James' Park, which has just one year left.
A number of clubs had been linked, but Liverpoolhttp://static.lingospot.com/spot/image/spacer.gif were always reportedly in pole position and now they have made their move.
It is understood that a fee of £6million has been agreed between the two clubs and Enriquehttp://static.lingospot.com/spot/image/spacer.gif will now travel to Merseyside for a medical.
Newcastle will now be left hunting for a new left-back although they have already expressed an interest in PSV Eindhoven'shttp://static.lingospot.com/spot/image/spacer.gif Erik Pieters.http://static.lingospot.com/spot/image/spacer.gif
and Cesc leaves the training ground for the last time and says goodbye to Wenger

That's it now, Wenker has fucked up one too many times. I'll support the club, the players that stay (apart from Chamakh) and the players that have come in (even Dann) but Wenker can fuck off.
Somebody ring him please and advise him I have come to this regretful but necessary decision.
We could have done with Jose Enrique.Wenger :doh:
we'll get 50m from both those 2 transfers, im pretty sure wenger will spend some of that.Quote:

anyone who thinks we're gonna get 2 cb's is deluded. we have 4 already, is wenger the type to let squid or kos go after 1 season? not a chance. djourou done alright last season so hes deffo staying. just need 1 more centre back to add competition.
will be a good summer if all plans out.
We don't have 4 CB's, we have Djourou, Squillaci, Koscielny (whatever they are, certainly not CBs) and one CB who is surrounded by speculation of a shift to LB because tight wad wouldn't buy a replacement for Clichy. We won't get £50mill in either, it sounds like the Fabregas deal is a lot less than originally thought, 18.5mill now, more next year and the significant remainder made up in performance related add-ons and savings on (fuck me, it's hard to believe) compensation payments to the little cunt. The savings shit doesn't count, you might as well say he was being paid £6mill a year so the transfer fee is actually £24mill more because we'll save his wages. Savings is not an amount of money paid by the cuntalans to us, so how can it be included as part of the transfer fee? It's a smokescreen to lessen the blow as the fans discover how weak we've been in the market again. Even if we do get £50mill, all the pointers indicate a £6mill move for a mediocre defender called Dann (WTFRU?) and you're probably right, it's delusional to imagine tight wad will spring for two defenders. Take a look at the situation up front too. RvP and then what? Chamakh (FFS) and Vela provided he doesn't go on loan. So I guess that means either another injury prone Walcott moving into the centre or the untried Gervinho taking up the role. Yet again, Wenger opts for zero experience as the solution despite all the harsh lessons dished out to us over the last few years. Talk is Wenger is going to reinforce his inability to learn simple lessons by signing some kid called Campbell. In truth the only way it could be a good summer now is if Wenger fucked off. He's done enough damage, his time should be up before he does any more.Quote:
