Oxlade Chamberlain Thread

[selassie]

bit of a dick move as usual by the board/wenger but that's the norm nowadays. he'll be off no doubt for a career of extremely well paid mediocrity somewhere else.

Well he certainly shouldn't be our highest earner, though the issue is more to do with the fact we don't and are not prepared to pay the market rate salary for our star players. The market rate salary for a top 4 club. Saying that Citeh & Chelski have completely distorted the market rate, though we should be paying our star players more than we currently are, but a lot of that is down to our botched wage structure that was implemented by Arsene.

Edited to add: The market rate salary for our star players.

who cares about the money. its wasted on other mugs in the squad that never play so whats another 30/40k. we're get fleeced either way. it might as well be for someone that will be on the pitch.

Theo Walcott Obviously.

[Kano]

i'm sure he is the only one in the squad that does eh

Never said he was, but as he is holding out for more money then id say he does.

The problem with giving Walcott £100k is that it would make him the second highest paid player in the squad behind Cazorla.

It's a problem because he is not the second best player in the squad.

If he has looked at all at Cazorla's performances for club and country, compared his own against Moldova and thought 'Yeah, I'm nearly as good as this guy', he needs a serious reality check.

With Rodgers re-inventing football by implementing an innovative pass and move style to Liverpool why would he want Walcott? A passer Walcott is not.

Yeah I know, getting paid on potential...but to be honest, OX is a supreme talent IMHO, he's going to be a star for both us and England.

I personally don't think Arsene is that bothered about Theo hence why he's not prepared to fight to keep him, in fact I'd go as far as to say Theo is being frozen out of the team by Arsene.

I know this is an OX thread but IMHO Theo needs to be very very careful with the game he's playing, he could very well end up like Michael Owen if his next move isn't a success.

If true then Wenger is a muppet

A bigger one than he already is

Theo is a better player than Ox atm and therefore should be kept until Ox is ready.

What happened on Friday?

I know Ox is the flavor of the month atm and thats fine

But im not in the business of critisising one player to praise another.

Im glad we have both.
