Schweinsteiger has had a falling out with Oliver Kahn and the Kaiser has sided with Kahn so hoping he leaves Bayern and comes here

What type of player is he? 8 goals and 10 assists in 44 games last season doesn't seem stellar to me for what we need.

He's dynamic, will go box to box for the whole 90 minutes, brilliant passer, the engine room of a very good German national side, he's a tough mother too. We've needed a player like this for a long time. Will we get him? If he's on the market I really don't see how. Other clubs will be in for him.

Meh, we lost more games with nasri starting than we did without last season. Really doesn't understand the CAM role. Gervinho is much more of an asset on the wings away tbh and we've missed him already.

Just for all those who claim AW has the power of night and day over the club... Get real.

So what you;re saying is Mancini is a piece of shit who should shut his fucking mouth in case somebody puts a fist in it?

I'm forced to agree with you.

Can he provide the killer pass that breaks down 2 banks of 4?

And yes Mancinis a twat.

He does it for Germany, but look we're not getting him. This is just a tease.

We're deep into unexplored territory as far as I'm concerned. Wouldn't supprise me if he and 5 similar level signings came, or if nothing at all happened. Least likely ATM is a continuation of what's gone before because koscielny type signings are normally sorted weeks before this point.

My working hypothesis is that AW is indeed wanting to bring big names in but needs to see where the club stands re CL qualification. If were not in it would take Man City style wages to get anyone good. If we are in it would be easier.

We didn't get SNEIJDER because it would kill... ...coming back wil be like new signings...

Looks like Mancini has greater say over our squad selection than AW does.

I really do feel for Arsene now.

So the waiting was about CL qualification - reckon Arsene's arse wnr when we drew Ude in that case but........battles are there to be won!

Will be 100% behind the team come Wednesday (although due to time difference from the warmth of my bed......sorry )

and pray that we get the kind of result that would see us open the possibility of a couple of decent signings coming in to shore things up .......Schweinsteiger, Sow, Hazard, the French CM, Jags, Cahill and the like......all of course would be a stretch.......looks like we are scarificing the first couple of games! TBH honest we were probably looking to get something out of the 'castle and 'pool games tho!

He's turned into Veruca Salt over the summer.
