    You always get these players that have a decent run...but he's not the answer to our problems. We can do better, imo. That's all I'm saying.

    If we'd ahve signed him, we'd be saying he wasn't good enough. I really couldn't see him causing Barca, Real etc much harm....and like I say, we're a pile of shit at the moment...but ultimately we want to be challenging the top sides in Europe ( )....but we wouldn't with this dude as a benchmark.

    Exactly.

    This guy made an impression on me a few gas back in the Emirates Cup. He has the ability to dicitate the middle of the park and much bette than what we're getting from Arteta and Ramsey. It's not just the goals and the assist record. His ability on the ball, energy and passing are really impressive and he'd be more dynamic in the middle over Ramsey and Arteta. On the flanks, he'd be more lethal than Gervinho.

    Guess we'll never know anyway

    We have jack to come back anyway, so hopefully that'll solve a couple of issues we have at the moment.

    I wish Diaby could have some run of fitness and form, because if he could get rid of those niggling injuries and played to his capabilities, he'd be awesome.
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

    Bit unfair to say till they both have had the same time to adapt to the prem, Gev has been awful In shooting but in what he was bought here to do he has been excellent tbh. Don't think Gev is suited to a 433 anyway. I'm even begining to question why he was even bought tbh.

    We also have Alex Song who can play there.

    Diaby has the potential if he stayed fit, but he's not great at passing. If you rate Diaby, you'd like Sessegnon even more. He's a much better passer.

    I'm tired of this formation talk. Am I the only one who thinks that once an attacking player keeps getting the ball in good positions, he should have no excuse for failing to deliver? Lets get some basics straight - attacking players have to score goals. Gervinho should be scoring goals. He isn't and so he isn't doing his job well. He gets into good positions and hasn't been delivering.

    Arshavin should be played in the hole, Walcott should be played upfront etc...I don't give a fuck. When they get into good positions, they have to be doing much more than they are. Ramsey, too. No exuses - if you get the ball 25 yards out, fucking do something useful with it instead of nervously edging it out to Sagna to hit the first man on the cross.

    Sorry to sit on the fence a bit but I can see both LDG and PnG's point about Sessingyoung (don't care how its splet). I don't think we should have to look for top quality players. I'm still happy with the Arteta and Mertesacker signings. But if we're going to make small improvements, we need a few more of them to compensate for the lack of one big improvement. But it's not sustainable to buy lots of players and keep the disproportionately large squad we'll need just because we can't sort out the issue of why we get so many injuries. We make a good signing, he'll play a month and get injured for the next 5. What's the point.

    Sessegnon is an excellent player and evidence that there are players available on the market who aren't overly expensive but would have made a huge improvement to our squad. Him, VDV, Parker, Kompany etc could all have been bought for reasonable prices, but Wenger decided it was better to sign players like Bischoff, Denilson, Squillaci, Silvestre etc.

    Your right, i was only pointed out if you look at his record he never scored many goals before he came here. so really i never expected him to score many. but he should be more lethal. His pace he gives the team and his trickry has been useful.
