Winter Transfer Speculation

[The Emirates Gallactico]

What do you guys think about throwing in a cheeky bid for Cesc? The Chavs hate him and with our midfield options very limited, he could be a long term solution to Santi.

Quite possibly your worst suggestion ever since advocating for replacing Wenger with Owen Coyle.

He's past it. His hamstrings and his enthusiasm for the game have gone. Wenger woz right.

Welbeck, another player pushing up the wage bill so he can keep the staff in the treatment room busy. Rosicky. Wilshere, Theo with his routine visits, Diaby as the benchmark they all have to measure themselves against. Most clubs have one of these types, but has any club had so many?

The whole Welbeck situation is very weird.

He was only meant to be out for a few weeks initially before it spiralled into the ridicolous situation it is now where he probably won't play football for the best part of 16 months if he's lucky, with very vague medical reasons given for his abscense.

Don't want to start some "Rosicky a drug addict" type conspiracy here but it wouldn't suprise me if there's more to it than a simple physical injury.

It's just our medical staff. Welshit doesn't strike me as the unprofessional type that would allow off field antics derail his football career.

As for Cesc Fabregas.....I'd have him back. If the little runt is responsible for that mutiny at Chelsea and getting José the sack, he needs a heroes welcome!

Fabregas is an absolute scumbag.

More importantly, he's almost as busted as Rooney.

Why do you think he's a scumbag?

Why do you think he's a scumbag?

Because there is overwhelming evidence that proves it.

What evidence?

[Master Splinter]

Well I think everyone's been over his behaviour on and off the pitch and character, or lack of it, enough times for it not to be worth going over again.

The most important thing is that he's been on a rapid decline for a while now after looking like he would become one of the midfield greats early in his career. And Wenger was certainly right for not even entertaining the thought of bringing him back.

But I'm asking why you think he's a scumbag. Not anyone else. I think he's a scumbag too, by the way. But heck, had a debate on here once about not always having nice characters in the team.

Cesc certainly has stalled his career. He's made some poor choices. But seeing how Ramsey and Wilshere have really stalled, Cazorla being injured, I wouldn't be opposed to a move. Without Ozil we have no creativity and I think Cazorla is on a steady decline.

[Heisenberg]

Cesc isn't a long term solution because he never gives you a full season. He might be fit for the whole campaign but he goes off the boil about half to two thirds through.

The guy turned up for a few months when he came back to Chelsea and has got 3 assists since January, in approximately 30 games. Why would we want that sort of shit in our team? Ramsey/Coq is going to be our middle two once he's back.

No point having a cunt in the team who contributes nothing other than being a prick. On that basis we may as well bid for Costa as well then.
