Andre Santos- The Muppet

[Dennis Bendtner]

I don't think he's an embarrassment. I just don't rate him and never understood why we bought him. He's a defender and there is no denying he can't defend, he's never been known to be a solid defender either.

For a club that is so prudent, why gamble in the market on players?

He was a stop-gap signing at perhaps the only time under Wenger that we've been so badly understaffed with so little time to do anything. See also the rest of the guys who came in at the end of the same window. Santos obviously wasn't near the top of the scout recommendation list - like Mertesacker, like Benayoun - with probably the only attribute going in his favour being his tekkers. But tekkers can't cure obesity. There's no doubt they were stuck for options.

Lucky that Gibbs is starting to look the real deal. Improved defensively and in any case nobody in this league can defend. Attacking wise he's right up there. Building a nice little partnership and as a result Podolski's starting to look better now too.

An injury to Gibbs is never far away though. And when it comes, it's going to be absolutely hilarious because Santos will get abused every game. BOOOOOOOOOOO they'll say.

Yeah I really rate Gibbs too. He's really come on this season, starting to look like a very good talent. Once he sorts out his positioning and develops a bit more he'll be a class player.

Do not forget, Vermaelen can also play there.

Yeah, Wenger was responsible for the mess, he spent the summer tearing apart the team and dithering in the market. We should have had all of the departing players replacements lined up way before the old trafford debacle.

I heard he went into a restaurant and ate everything in the restaurant and they had to close the restaurant.

[Japan Shaking All Over]

He must have well eaten a lot?

[Niall_Quinn]

It was a very small restaurant run by ants.

[Japan Shaking All Over]

In that case. . .here's to hoping he picked up on them little guys' work ethics. . .the fat fook

[Niall_Quinn]

Ants my mate, you muppet! Not fucking insects.
