Kos was shit for the first 18 months of his career with us but has improved
Sir Ches isnt as good as everyone seemed to think he is
Where am i wrong? :unsure:
I understand you seem to think we have the best players of all time and thats fair enough. Im just a bit older and wiser tbh.
Kos was good long before you swallowed your pride and admitted as much
Ches is not as shit as you think he is and nor is Theo as good as you think!
Never said that we have the best players of all time. . .which makes me think that that part about you getting older is not really making you wiser just a bit more senile!
Me and Wenger have something in common then :(
As for Theo, he is as good as i think he is tbh
All ive ever said about him is he scores and gets assists which he does. Again, where am i wrong?
I certainly never had expectations like most did on here back in 2006 that he would become absolutely brilliant and be the best player in the world or whatever. Like i said, im older and wiser than that. I rate players on what they do, not on potential. And what Theo has done fo the most part is fine by me. Goals and assists both in double figures in the last 2 seasons is fine by me and hes better than the likes of Nani, Lennon, Young, Bale etc. Players who are praised but doesnt produce as much
I dont think Ches is shit. I just dont think hes the best in England which some have said on here. He himself has admitted he can get better which sort of backs me up
As for Kos, im glad to hes proving me wrong. Doesnt change the fact he was shit fo 18 months
Mvila :rose:Quote:
Arsenal are interested in Toulouse midfielder Étienne Capoue and could press ahead with a move for him in January.
Arsene Wenger's transfer business this summer was mixed, with the impressive captures of Santi Cazorla, Olivier Giroud and Lukas Podolski.
But the Gunners sold Robin Van Persie and Alex Song, raising fears among fans the club needs to sell their star players to continue investing in the team.
However, Arsenal's pursuit of the impressive Capoue suggests Wenger is still very keen on boosting his squad to compete with Europe's best.
France international Capoue, a tough-tackling 24-year-old, has been on Arsenal's radar for some time and there were suggestions Wenger wanted him this summer.
No move materialised but it is understood the north London side could come in with a bid of around £12m when the window reopens.

Maybe
Still, a rumour about our club so twas posted
Cute how he wants to get onside with the Spuds fansQuote:
Tottenham defender Jan Vertonghen has revealed that he was also contacted by Arsenal during the summer transfer window, but eventually opted to join the Spurs as they gave him "a good feeling".
The Belgium international signed a long-term contract with the White Hart Lane outfit, and has gone on to start two of their three Premier League matches so far.
His future was uncertain for a long time, however, and the former Ajax captain revealed he questioned Arsenal legend Dennis Bergkamp over both clubs.
"[Bergkamp] knows Tottenham are a very big club. He's a very good guy, and I get along with him very well," the 25-year old told Sky Sports.
"I chose Spurs because they gave me a good feeling. I spoke to Daniel Levy and Rafael van der Vaart. Arsenal did try to sign me, but I'd already made my decision that I wanted to play [for Spurs].
"[Arsenal captain] Thomas [Vermaelen] told me [the Arsenal and Tottenham rivalry] was like Ajax and Feyenoord.
"They're big rivals but when I walk down the street even the Arsenal fans have been very respectful."
Tottenham will look to secure their first victory of the season when they travel to Reading on Sunday.
It is no secret Vertonghen is a long time Arsenal fan. We didn't sign him cos we don't need another CB. :coffee:
Well we do but only as 4th choice which he wouldnt be happy with
Someone like a Grimandi or a Cygan.
Decent dependable players who will come in when the inevitable injuries come around and then wont moan when they are dropped when the injured players are back

Make the right offer, Wenger
£20m should do it
Or £15m plus Arteta
My guess is we would have bought Vertonghen if he was super cheap. He'd have been good cover and left back contender.
Wenger probably verbally mentioned a stupidly low figure to Ajax seeing as he was in the last year of his contract. As soon as Spurs came in with a major offer Wenger didn't follow up his interest.
Top footballers have massive egos and self confidence - that's how they get to the top. In his mind he'd have thought he's better than Merts or Kos and would therefore get in the team. He plays LB for his country so I'm not sure why he suddenly wants to be a CB anyway.
Anyway, we didn't even bid for him. He's just trying to win over the Spurs fans. I remember Zakora said similar and look how good he turned out to be....
I'll be utterly shocked if a top team decided to buy him. In the same way I knew nobody decent would buy Dempsey. Only player worth considering from Everton is Baines.
It would probably take £277m for them to sell him to us though.
I would prefer £270m + £7m add ons though. Just incase...
Demba Ba is available for £7m in January, has scored goals in England for both West Ham and Newcastle.
We need a striker
Done deal surely
£40m and hes theirsQuote:
