Summer Transfer Speculation and Shit.

Wenger can't have opted to pay him 140k a week and then leave him out of his harebrained schemesplans.

In spite of that, he will be left out and used as a spare part...his numbers won't look as good and people will point to this as proof that he is no good and that we should get rid. :doh:

If he knows the players worth (that is, financial worth) he'd begrudgingly do it anyway....he is after all the consummate economist...

Walcott is an instictive player. He can't think it through beforehand. He just goes, finds space and converts.

His problem has always been when he is under pressure to do something or be somewhere. He has no football brain in an Ozil / Bergkamp sense.

There is no set game Theo is best suited for. He just turns up sometimes, and orher times ge has no fucking clye how to get into a game, and no inclination to do it anyway.

He's great when he's angry, has a point to prove, or anythng else emotional to him. Otherwise, he's standoffish, clueless and a waste if space.

All in all, you want hin there, but if you found Alexis 2, you'd fuck him off.

Wenger, please go in for him! :pray:

Why?

Anyway, Chelsea have signed Kenedy. :unsure:

Mr. Kenedy...


Kenedy?

Good signing for Vitesse.

Why would anyone want Wanyama? Fakeyank is really weird. Might as well get Tiote.

You can't compare his intelligence to that of Ozil's or Bergkamps. They don't use the term a 'strikers instinct' for nothing. You'll see a clear difference in intelligence when a player like Ozil is in the box with an opportunity on goal compared to Theo's. Most of the stuff a striker does off field in training pays off so everything on the pitch looks like instinct when banging in goals. But it takes practice, intelligence and learning from situations so it becomes second nature.

The playmaker's intelligence is easy to spot in football but we could sit and watch a 100 goals or runs from wingers and strikers and I doubt we'd be able to pin point what they were thinking beforehand. When Sanchez or Ox go on mazy runs do you think they're thinking before hand that they'll beat 2 or 3 players before getting an shooting opportunity? The footballing brain thing is just media soundbites. If you listen to Henry talk about his development as a striker and the stick he used to get in his youger days for going out wide. I'm sure his early critics would have said some bs about him not understanding the game or lacking a footballing brain. Don't listen to idiots like Chris Waddle. To make the runs that Theo does and to anticipate the pass or be in the right place at the right time shows his intelligence as a striker. Or who knows. Maybe it's just instinct. Maybe the reason why Giroud seems so static in the box is because he's thinking and contemplating the run instead of actually doing it. ;)
