    Name change? I thought raf had packed it in until I realised he'd changed name. It's not hard to cop the post styles.

    In fairness though you'd want to take a break from here every so often!

    Ah, I don't like this trend of wondering where people are/figuring out which name they'd changed to. Some people might just have wanted to change their username, but others may have left if they were getting hassle on a forum, etc. I'd prefer to let them clear up any confusion, but only if they want.

    The arsecast is excellent today, sums up the game perfectly IMO, well worth a listen!

    If anything needs a name change, it's Arsecast. Why not just Arsenalcast??

    Naw, didn't really watch it, 9-10.30 is frasier, Daily Politics at 12, RTE News at One, then Tipping Point (ugh) 15 minutes of the Chase, POINTLESS and OC and UC later!!!

    Go outside now. Get 2 flys, put them on a wall and see which one gets to the top first. Much better entertainment

    Patrick Vieira has been appointed as head coach of New York City FC...bit of a strange one that. Good luck to him.

    International break coming at a great time for us.

    In relation to the F365 article, I can see where thy're coming from with the injuries criticism. We looked dead on our feet yesterday and its only November. We're missing players but our bench is threadbare. We're in with a shout this season, but having very little in reserve COULD cost us.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,752 ✭✭✭Mr Blobby


    I like this one.
    There's something very majestic about Ozil.

    Really good point a few pages back about strikers in the PL.

    Like if you could have any two at Arsenal.

    Very very hard to look beyond Giroud and Ageuro tbh.

    It's not Giroud's fault we don't have Ageuro.

    10 players out would leave every team in the league with a threadbare bench

    At this point in time id love Vardy, can shoot with both feet, has pace and a great attitude. In time he might turn out to be a flash in the pan but so far he's looking every inch a great striker. (I know he's a completely different type of forward to Giroud before somebody feels the need to point it out)

    Bony,Remy,Costa,Kane,Sturridge,Zarate,ageuro,rooney,hernandez etc.

    Not saying they are all better than Giroud, but a lot of strikers seem to be overlooked In here all the time. Giroud Isn't In the same league as Ageuro or an in-from Costa and that's the problem. Giroud would be a great back up/option for any team.

    Makes sense, he's a coach at Man City, and NYFC are pretty much Citys American franchise.

    Ya I know, I just thought they would have gone for someone with more managerial experience.

    Rooney?!?!?

    LMAO

    Yeah Rooney, Englands record goal scorer and a guy who has scored over 170 PL goals... so laughable. What's laughable Is how fickle people are.

    His form though the last year or so has been brutal.
    Most people on your list I would consider them on par with Giroud, just that they offer something different on the game. Some of them could work very well in the current Arsenal squad.
    I wouldn't want Costa because is a complete scumbag.

    Aguero is on a league of its own.
