I know fans are pissed at Nasri but come on, a nobody better than Nasri?

have you seen gervinho play football. yes or no?

im not saying hes a absolute world-beater, not yet anyway. but hes just better than the nasri weve seen over the last 3 years. im not talking about at being tippy-tappy btw (sorry football snobs), im talking about actually contributing to a winning side

[Cripps_orig]

Yes and hes average at best.

Nasri pisses on him and pisses on him comfortably

gervinho is better than nasri.

mata is also a good player who can join in like nasri but is prepared to consistently attack defenses unlike that nasri. a left foot too which would be useful.

vidal is a dynamic defensive-minded midfelder. a flamini who can play football. he can come in and help solidify the midfield. united have shown championships are not necessarily won in centre mid...lets get back to basics in that area. fuck cesc off. lets make sure number one we are hard to beat.

Wenger can't teach basics. We'll still be playing this tippy tappy bastardised version of something that is supposed to resemble Total Football. We have ripped up the script 3 times already. We have gone through major changes since losing Paddy and the results haven't changed.

Go compare the three teams we've built over the past 6 years. The captain Henry phase, the Captain Gallas phase and the Captain Cesc phase.

The first team looks different in all of them but the hallmark crash and burn syndrome has been there through all three teams. It's the manager and his philosophy that's the problem. None of those teams could defend or hold it together when it was crunch time. How is that possible?

To be honest I think BOBN is right, these are the players who have shaped this flawed Arsenal side. A change away from that direction is a gamble but one we probably have to take. I think many are just surprised shits going down already.

people are scared of losing players who have won nothing, I dont get it. its not like you can win less then nothing is it? footy fans are scared of their own shadows tbh.

I think it's like a loveless marriage.

Yes I've seen him a few times for Lille & Ivory Coast, he's a good player, but he's not at Nasri's level yet, nowhere near.

I'll give you that one. I don't think Nasri is rubbish, but a more direct player even if less talented in certain areas can be more effective. I think Theo is our deadliest winger because he has a simple and direct task. That can be more effective than someone that drifts all over the place and has no single purpose. Not impressed with what I've seen from Gervinho but I haven't seen enough to totally write him off.

lets wait and see then.

and im not talking about on some airy-fairy never-never...by january 1st this will be established fact tbh

[Cripps_orig]

Thats even if we get Gervinho.

We have been a "few days away" from getting him for like a month now

tbf im cheating a bit cos since january nasri has what 1 goal 0 assists?

gervinho has to do little more than run at defenders and he'll be a more useful player.
