    Was there seriouslya 5 million loan fee?!!?!?

    Impossible to know without seeing the contract though i think the 5 million was his 100 grand a week only which is 5mil.

    Good player better than Allen though sahin tries the odd attacking pass and it goes against rodgers keeping 100 percent pass completion no matter how dull it looks.


    Edit- also does anyone know would villa be able to start against southamton when he signs in the next 2 hours.

    Highly doubtful. Is there a source for him signing?

    I wonder would the fact that Barca are paying Arsenal in instalments for Fabregas and Song aid our chances of signing Villa?

    probably not, the majority of transfers are that way.

    what might be a small help is the number of players arsenal have sold them, there might be good enough communication links between people at the two clubs.
    that mightn't help at all though, only a thought :D

    Was just about to ask.
    Anyone see us linked with any defenders yet?

    I'm not really following Spanish football but why is David Villa not getting first team football since his return from injury? I'd have to question why Barcelona would be willing to let a player like him go. Do they feel he's past his best?

    Santos must have had some laugh when his contract was put in front of him. And he's been laughing since too except when he's collecting jerseys of course.


    He is reported to be on 10k a week more then Sagna...then bloody Sagna i mean ffs that cant be true!! Aggro Santos would do a better job in defence for us

    Wake up with a hangover only to realise we aren't playing til 5 30.

    Damn you late kick offs

    Its all good just gives us more time to sober up so we can watch the match without double vision and enjoy it better ;)

    just Luke Shaw from Southampton

    It's because he is an Out and Out striker but they have Messi playing in that position now . So I think its case of him being too good to be a bench warmer .

    Hope nothing happens Czsz as we only have a very inexperienced keeper on the bench.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 55,778 ✭✭✭✭tayto lover


    Giroud might have had that if he was on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,222 ✭✭✭✭Marty McFly


    Is there no match thread or am I just being blind and not seeing it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 55,778 ✭✭✭✭tayto lover


    Chamberlain needs to wake up. Three mistakes in 10 minutes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,031 ✭✭✭Soups123


    This looks and feels like Norwich away


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,300 ✭✭✭HazDanz


    Very sloppy game


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,428 ✭✭✭.jacksparrow.


    We are so bad at getting the ball back,no pressure or urgency.

    This is the kind of game I hate and when we really struggle. Very poor in midfield so far. I really hope they don't score first.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,129 ✭✭✭✭Oranage2


    This has 8-7 written all over it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 55,778 ✭✭✭✭tayto lover


    We need the big man up front asap.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,629 ✭✭✭wonga77


    Walcott lazy as **** at times, never tracks back, strolls around the place and shys away from challenges


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,625 ✭✭✭double GG


    Scrappy goal!

    Sagna at fault there, should have easily cleared it when he had the chance.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,629 ✭✭✭wonga77


    1 down, shambolic defending ffs


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,516 ✭✭✭jonneymendoza


    ****sakes!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,031 ✭✭✭Soups123


    Disgraceful 35 minutes


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 55,778 ✭✭✭✭tayto lover


    The defence s*** themselves again, pure panic. Wenger should make a few changes immediately.

    Have Arsenal done anything other than the 2 crosses the Southampton 'keeper dropped earlier?
