Yes they have told lies and alot but no one reall knows, Song won't say i wanted more money the board will say what ever to defend them.
Don't know who was right and i don't really care. The way i see it we did not have to sell he had 3 years left so we were under no pressure to sell or get money for the board.
It was Arsenal decsion to sell it seems so there must have been a reason.
Well they had to sell someone to make up the £15 million defecit in the transfer window.song was probably the only one left worth that ammount of money
dont even try going down that route of argument pal. our board and wenger get a load of stick for a lot of things but if you're for one minute blaming the board for telling song to do one until after the transfer window when he has THREE, yes THREE years left on his contract, then there's something inherently wrong with our fanbase.
dont buy that argument im afraid. do you honestly, deep down in your heart of hearts think wenger wanted to sell song in order to balance our profit and loss accounts this summer? a player he persisted with for so many years; someone who everyone - including arsenal fans - kept saying would never be good enough at arsenal? a player who single handedly put in one of the worst arsenal performances i have ever seen at craven cottage, only to go and turn into a critical player last season? you really think wenger thought 'fuck it, hes turned into a star so lets sell him to balance our transfers'..? i dont buy that im afraid.
you can follow that hypothesis if you want but personally i think (and from what ive heard) song turned into an absolute c*nt over the past few months. it was evident by some of his actions in pre-season, rolling up his shorts in preseason games as if he's tony montana's godson, when in fact he was performing like harold and kumar's long lost brother. put your hate for arsene aside and realise we sold song because wenger wanted to sell for footballing reasons. his attitude stinks and we can easily improve on him.
We can easliy improve on him but we wont.I will wager whatever you want that an ample replacement is not found ,certainly for any decent amount of money.Wenger will do whatever the board tell him just to balance the books .He is quite happy to have a wage structure for everone exept himself and the board.If i was song i would be pissed off .He was carrying our midfield for the last 2 seasons on 50k a week while the prodigal son diaby spent 2 years on the treatment table.Song is 10 times the player diaby ever will be.
i wish song would spare us this bullshit of i want to stay at arsenal for life, its not about the money, i just want to stay here.
if he wanted to stay here, he would have waited until the club spoke to him about a new contract, not fucked off when someone else offered one, nor demand one when 3 years left on it. he wanted more money, thats a fact
