    By the way it's hilarious how players like Denilson and Bendtner are not wanted by other clubs. That should take them down a peg or two. Bendtner especially behaves like a big time Charlie, even though his actual talent is a small fraction of the size of ego. Then there's Denilson, who thinks tracking midfield runners is beneath him. Hope we stick the two in the reserves if we can't flog them, they'd deserve it.

    Nasri IMO should have been signed up last summer, if he wasn't going to we should have got our money back and signed someone else. We should make it clear that we want to extend their contract but that if they don't then we'll be left with no choice but to sell as we don't want to lose them for less than market value.
    I'm sorry mate, but you're not making much sense.

    On the one hand you're saying we're letting top players contracts run down.

    On the other you're saying we're paying out stupid money to players that don't deserve big wage hikes.

    Now, out of the players you have mentioned, Nasri seems like the "toppest" player, and surely the player that you were initially thinking of, because this wouldn't have come up otherwise.

    Tell me what Nasri had done to deserve an improved deal last summer, that, BTW, we did offer. All 90k of it??

    Furthermore, Nasri's value last year would have been nothing compared to now. Especially coming off the back of NIL return, having been injured for much of his SECOND season with us, and many fans on here baying for blood because he wasn't good enough.

    Yet. He comes out at the beginning of last year, and proves he is one of our TOP players, and that perhaps AW was right to offer him a new deal, and have faith in his ability.

    I don't get where you are coming from. Because for all I can see, you're twisting what is a situation we've tried to resolve with a more than reasonable offer, at the right time, into something you can beat Wenger with.
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

    With Scholes retiring they have an even bigger hole in midfield to fix now though, let them buy in wingers who aren't much better than what they've got, if they don't deal with their ailing midfield their transfer window will be a failure imo.

    I think they're on the lookout for a midfielder next (which explains why they're linked with Nasri) With Ferguson he doesn't waste time, making sure he gets the necessary recruitments in early.

    It is pretty funny, especially the statement from Shakthar 'they offered us Denilson, we are not interested in him at all', if it forced them to change their attitude it might work out nicely if they don't leave this year, doubt it would though.
