    I don't watch them enough to know really but if he's not good enough for Barca that doesn't mean he'd be no good for us again.
    Barca are one of the best teams in Europe. We are not, sadly.
    If you get beaten by Bolt and Blake in the 100m it doesn't make you shit.

    Lets hope we never find out. This is more about just getting a good player in. The way he left, the way he acted, fuck him and the horse he rode in on

    Spot on. We've moved on, and we now move the ball fwd a bit more. For all his wonderful defence-splitting passes, he really slowed our game down with his tippy tappy stuff. Much better watching any of our current midfielders.

    I don't think we have moved on. We're still the same shite ass team when Cesc was here just with a different pointless spaniard in midfield. Bringing Cesc back won't improve us at all. Would just keep us at the mediocre level we are at

    We play at a much slower pace now. We need Rosicky in the squad just to get some pace into our game! I have no idea what you guys are watching sometimes. How can a guy that can find a killer pass with one touch slow our game down even more than players like Ramsey, Wilshere and Arteta? Ramsey and Wilshere are often guilty of taking too many touches on the ball before releasing and Arteta finds it difficult just to turn on the ball and pass!

    If you disagree with the way he left that's cool but let's not talk as if we're a better side without him. The last two seasons have been a struggle to capture 4th.

    I meant 'moved on' as in 'we're over his departure' not as in we've moved on footballistcally! @PnG yes Rosicky injects the pace we sometimes lack, much more enjoyable to watch when he's in the side, Wilshere when on form is a driving force too...
    To be fair it's much better watching any player play for us that actually wants to...We struggled to finish 3rd/4th with Cesc in the side too remember. Glad he's gone and I don't think he'll be returning any time soon.

    We've had two seasons where we've spent large chunks of the season outside of the top 4 and had to fight our way back. I only recall one season where we were that bad and that's when we had Henry, Pires, Ljunberg and Campbell in the team. We had a few seasons where we could have won the title if we'd have spent in January. And let's not forget the abysmal cup exits this year. We've gotten worse as a team and to say otherwise is foolish.
