Winter Transfer Speculation and Shit.

I'm not about to get so basic about this where o have to explain what someone with the comprehension of a ten year old ought to understand.

Haters gonna hate, c'est la vie I guess.

Going off on one at Wenger, yeah, I expect that off a sub human twat like Maureen, and the press who will stoop to whatever level it takes to sell a paper.

I don't expect it however from Arsenal fans on an Arsenal forum.

:lol: Cheeky guy. There is nothing wrong with my comprehension skills and I get the context. This is what I'm basing my argument on.

It was simple question from the journalist...'are you surprised by the Mata deal'. There were many ways to answer that without talking about 'fairness' because we've used the January transfer window for our own gain and sold/loaned players to Prem clubs as well. The last three Prem holders have all benefited from top players we've sold them. Is that not true? Don't gloss over that part of the argument.

It's not as if we can't use the window to strengthen our squad so I don't agree with his argument and plenty of journalists can pull him up on that. He's making it sound as if Chelsea have an advantage over us when the window is open for everybody. He has a fundamental point of view and he's used Chelsea as an example and I'm inclined to disagree. Is that okay with you? It's not as if this is the first time I've disagreed with Wenger's views on the transfer window and don't act as if you've always been in agreement with it as well. Take those 'true Arsenal fan' taunts somewhere else. I don't have to agree with you or Wenger on everything.

I see.

He hasn't consistently said that at all.

He said it once. He doesn't repeat it every year, unlike his opinion that the January transfer window should be scrapped.

Just picking up on what Frenchie suggested.

As for the other bit, not strictly true, last year Wenger called for clubs to be limited to signing only two new players in the January window, slightly different take I'd say.

Anyway, I blame Milla.

To somehow make Mourinho the victor of The 178th Official Mind Games 2014 and slam Wenger for a point he's made many times before is well, puzzling at best and plain wrong at worst.

Why is Wenger bothered by the Mata deal? Why does it matter? What point is he trying to make about 'fairness'?

Mourinho is an asshole that's not up for debate but answer the above. What message is Wenger trying to get across and whose his audience? I don't get why he'd offer himself up like that when there are some many holes in his argument.

Who cares, its done now either way.

Cant we just talk about transfers again?

Wheres the twitter crap and ITK bullshit???

What are some of you saving up to be? Marriage guidance counsellors? In which case if you are going to refer to an opposition manager as "Jose", then could you please refer to our own manager as Arsène (rather than Wenger). Or better still, le Boss.

Even if Maureen was right, which he wasn't and isn't, Wenger is our manager so we support him regardless. Maureen is somebody else's manager so we don't support him. Which bit is complicated? I just don't get why fans want to be "fair" about anything? What's the point of that? You can't be a fan and be fair, surely? Fair people are observers, not fans.

The Mata thing is the side issue, FFP is the main issue. The gypos have already cheated on that with their incest sponsorship, so they are a lost cause. Wenger actually said for the first time he sees the chavs as being genuine about FFP. That was they key point and that's where the fairness (level playing field) comes into it. They've had to sell Mata to balance the books. From what I can see Wenger offered an olive branch, albeit hidden in a rose bush. He said, good, the chavs are finally playing by the rules. But he also said those rules in some respects are shite, like the January transfer window. He's always said that though.
