Isn't it supposed to be biased in his favour, not balanced!...... 24 minutes I won't need to get back in my life as I'm definitely not watching it all.

    At this point I just want Wenger to identify whoever the hell he thinks can play there and sign him. There is a list of about 500 players who could perform the role.... I almost don't care who....though there is more chance we will sign a monkey from the ebola forest than of us signing Pogba. Though somewhat tragically I suspect Wenger's reasons for not getting in there first with Pogba was that he had Diaby at the time. Ooops.
    To be fair, I'm not sure a 24 minute clip will actually do any 22 year old many favours? They won't have been around long enough to fill the whole thing with great moments, so a large part of it will probably be padded out with bits from games from when they were really young and inexperienced. A shorter, 3-4 minute clip of his last season would probably tell you more about what he's actually like now.

    Apparently, since Shad Forsythe officially joined the club, Diaby has been available for selection every day - nice one Shad!

    Even if the player is 42, 24 minutes is an eternity and does nobody any favours purely out of tediousness and boredom. If it's a mixed bag, at least start with some of the best clips at the start and end. Like a comedian's show!

    I'd like nothing more than for Diaby to get a season of football. Honestly. Whether he needs to lick on a charmed toad or eat horse placenta..... He must not be allowed to retire before John Terry.

    Lampard to Man City... can anyone make some sense out of that move?

    Out of New York, Man City and Lampard there isn't a single party that benefits from this.

    Lampard definitely does!

    £100k+ each week

    He must've known about it before he signed the nyfc deal

    This will be some underhand method to get around FFP. What does it matter which of your clubs is paying the wages when there is unlimited money. But I bet there's some advantage for the gypo's books. They're a farce of a club, operating in a different environment to everyone else bar the chavs.

    I already did that but got negative feedback after showing that 1 goal in the chumps league, that kick to Terry's head, and 23mins 56 seconds of life support monitors going "beep"
    Society is now one polished horde
    Formed by two mighty tribes, the bores and the bored.

    "After all, it was the Gunners’ goalkeeper who started the move that culminated in Thomas’ crowning glory. It was Lukic who, in injury time, decided to throw the ball out to Lee Dixon rather than lump it long..."

    If that's all from last season, then this lad looks a bit of a beast?! Amazing how cleanly and casually he manages to win everything, without diving in or coming off his feet, although I did enjoy the bit on 2.42, where he cleans out 2 or 3 players with one tackle!

    How good is he in the air, do you know? I only made it to about 7 and a half minutes before I gave up...
