true true, look im not fussed if we sell or keep him tbh, however if he really is going to start to flirt around then he can fuck off but not too sure if he is or not.Originally Posted by V-Pig
the post i quoted just said we cant sell song for those reasons, was just offering my version of how they could be disagreed with
It's amazing how much you lot are undervaluing Song in this market.
If he goes for anything less than £30 mill I would be extremely pissed.
It would be WUMgers finest move if he sold him.
Song is a must keep.
Well I'm fussed. Not because I have him on my shirt.
Because he was arguably our 2nd or 3rd most valuable player last season.
Yeah, it would've been nice for him to react as Arsenal fans would to linking rumours with a "I'd rather sandpaper my own scrotum than play in a team with Sergio Biscuits", but considering that everything footballers say is written by money-grubbing agents, it was a pretty positive "I'm happy here" statement. He's not a wantaway like Wan Pursie.
"Despair is a narcotic. It lulls the mind into indifference."
my point of him flirting around was more to do with the fact that he has reportably already agreed terms etc with barca.
he was very good last year as a creative force, however as a dm, he was prone to errors. he isnt a dm though so that could be the problem, all i am saying is if he goes, and we replace him with a specialist dm then im not too fussed.
Well from what I understand he's not asked for a move again its just the Spanish *cough* press stiring things up he's probably thinking if Arsenal want to sell him then so be itk, though I hope he doesn't think it could be bad for his career ask Hleb.
That's just paper fabrication. The Song would never do that to us...
I can't believe he'd play for them after that Barca game where he picked up an early yellow and had to spend the rest of the fucking game watching as Biscuits jumped around in front of him like a retarded salmon. I mean, how can you respect co-workers like that?
Also, £15m for him would be an absolute insult. That age? That talent? 3yrs on his contract? £25m at the very least.
"Despair is a narcotic. It lulls the mind into indifference."
Wenger did say he must make a profit every year, so it wouldn't surprise me if we sold Song to make up for the spending we have done so far this summer. However, it would be a big disappointment, because although Song has flaws to his game, he created 14 goals for us last season, and when on form is a very good player indeed (which is why Barca want him).
We can't keep losing key first team players every summer, and replacing them with unproven youngsters. So far this summer we've done well by buying proven internationals like Podolski, Giroud and Cazorla. However, if we lose Song and then rely on Coquelin, that would be a huge step backwards.
This is most likely the work of Song's agent, trying to get him a new deal
He wasn't playing as a pure DM last season though. If anything Arteta was the deepest lying midfielder, so he has to take at least part of the blame for us being so easy to play against.
