Shit...
He's not as bad as people here make out, I'd be happy if he was 3rd choice as a striker.
GOD helps us if RVP gets injured and Bendtner gone. Would have rather seen Akfobe tbh.
Hard worker
Seems to have no desire to score
Good player. Works tirelesseesesly whatever.
Not the best of games today but when youre playing with shite such as Gervinho, Rosicky, Song, Jenkinson, Frimpong etc even the best would struggle.
Good squad player to have and isnt a problem.
He was awful today, hasn't been much better in a while.
A new CF is almost as needed as a new CB.
That's a poor excuse, given Chamakh was worse than all those players you mention combined.Quote:

Biggest joke of a striker to ever play in the PL. Spends the whole game hiding, contributes nothing, we play with 10 when he's picked. He needs to be sold or given away. We urgently need one or even two (if Nick leaves) proper strikers that can back up RvP. Nothing special is required, just a player that knows how to shoot, has a fairly decent touch and is not a disgraceful coward and lazy wanker like Chamakh.
What a fucking cunt, how have we gone from Bergkamp and Henry to having a cunt like this in our squad? If it's supposed to be a joke it's not fucking funny.
Well no he wasntQuote:

Awful....he is the benchmark for mediocrity.
We have RVP then this guy as his replacement.....is this real life?
The guys bollocks. Chambolic is his new name.
Said ages ago Bendy had more to off than him. I knew we made a mistake with this guy. Some of you owe me an apology! Said it early last season, this guy isn't built to last in this league. He's softer than toilet paper.
Just the look of him sucks the life out of our game.
I apologise.Quote:

I think every criticism is justified, he is utterly pointless. Maybe he is a good player in his own right but in this team he fucking stinks the place out. Complete passenger and has nothing to offer apart from 5 yard lay offs. No pace, no intelligence, no audacity about him, he just seems up how mediocre the squad is. Is this really the type of striker we want in our squad? Please for the love of god Wenger buy a new striker or move Theo up front.
That said, Chamakh was surrounded by shit tonight so it was no surprise he shit as well, however it's not the first time he's performed like that so this is not isolated.
Don't care about the first 3 months of last season - beginners luck, honeymoon period, whatever you want to call it. Since November last year he has only scored one goal against Leyton Orient, he's just not bloody good enough.
But hey, this is the guy who will spearhead many more games this year when RVP inevitably breaks. Yay.
As he did last season and was excellent so no problem here with Chamakh. Hardly played after Xmas so not fair to judge him on sub appearances. When he gets a run in the team, he scores.Quote:

Surely he must catch on soon.
Chamack looks shot to peices right now, he needs a goal and soon, get some confidence and show us the player that we know and ACH says he can be.
He couldn't score with Debbie in 'Debbie does Dallas.'
When Bendtner last had a run in the team at the back end of 09/10 he was scoring in pretty much every other game.Quote:

What good is that?Quote:

Doesn't help with his hair covered in jizz.
Yet another example of how Wenger has lost it. He obviously considers Chamakh super quality or wouldn't have signed him.
Best post on here.Quote:

Right now, it just makes his constant critics boring and dull cos they dont really have a leg to stand on.Quote:

The Denilson of forwards.
And that says it all, I'm afraid.
Ive noticed how Chamakh critics are reaching by pointing this out.Quote:

You can honestly say you were impressed by his performance tonight?Quote:

He stopped getting into the positions that he was getting into at the start of the season, suggesting his early season form was a fluke. I remember him coming on against Bolton with us needing a goal, and he did sweet FA, which confirmed that he's not the quality of player a team that wants to finish in the top 4 should have.
Never said that. He was poor today but he wasnt the only one but yet hes the one whos getting all the hate. If i was in WUM mode id use the "we won the game which we didnt when RVP started a game this season" excuse which would silence everyone but thankfully im not in a wummy moodQuote:

We'd need a striker even if Chamakh was on form. I dont trust RVP to stay fit and Bendtner is awfulQuote:

Of course we need a striker, in fact we need two. Chamakh and Bendtner are not of sufficient quality to play at this level. Bendtner is mid table at best, Chamakh wouldn't make it in any league in this country because he has no bottle. We've needed a top quality striker ever since Henry left. Another gaping hole in the team that has cost us and cost us and cost us again. Obviously Vela isn't worth mentioning beyond pointing out he's still technically on our books.Quote:

Ive been calling for a striker for years even before Henry left cos even with him, we created plenty of chances but apart from him, no one else scored that much as Pires and Freddie had gone or were shit by then.
Nowadays we dont even create chances and players like Chamakh have to feed on scraps
That is true.Quote:
