    I know,the conflicting information is very frustrating, I think this summer will tell us though what the real situation is.

    I think the fact that this 13 million figure hasn't been refuted probably gives you an indication that it's around the mark.

    That said, Ade should get us another 20 million or so so we've got enough for the defender & midfielder we're crying out for. Not sure about the RMF that some people are crying out for though.

    I think we need to lay off the crying a bit.

    The thing is the club are not going to come out and publically admit a figure. According to tonights Evening Standard Arsene has been told he will have £30 million to spend and he will have most of the funds from any sales so they are claiming we could have up to £50million.

    That offside decision with Rhys Murphy was the worst I've ever seen in my 20 odd years of watching football. Utterly disgraceful. I realise we are 4-1 up but you cant take anything for granted. Personally i think were a level above the rest in terms of youth and will win at anfield Tuesday night. We'll at least get a result. Super performance tonight. Jack Wilshere had an unbelievable first 30 minutes but was well marshalled after the 2nd goal. Watt, Cruise, JET and Lansbury can become superb players for us in the future. Ive never seen such control from such a monster as JET. The thing i admired most was the work ethic of the team which the seniors lack.

    I always wonderd if Arsenal's Youth are so good and everyone always talks up the Carling cup side how come the Reserves dont win everything? I mean Villa won the reserves title vs Sunderland the other night and last year lost it vs Liverpool, how come Arsenal arent in the mix?

    I'd swap him for Ade and RVP. He'd still get more goals than the pair put together.....and yes......he is made of the same stuff as Tony Adams.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,475 ✭✭✭Royale with Cheese


    I really really hope he gets fit for Wednesday night. If Barca win that then he'll have done everything he set out to do in Spain. You never know he might be back at Arsenal one day (it'd have to be a knockdown transfer fee and he'd be taking a massive wage cut).

    Can't believe he never won world player of the year.

    My own opinion is that his personal life at the time played a significant part in his move.

    The reserves and the U18 team are largely the same, and a lot of reserve teamers are sent off on loan (Traore, Nordtveit, Agogo, Steer, Rodgers, Simpson, Barazite, Merida, Lansbury, Hoyte etc).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,746 ✭✭✭✭Galvasean


    Great win for the youth team. Shame I didn't realise it was on TV.
    Hopefully Ill catch leg two.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,469 ✭✭✭DenMan


    Great end of season victory today. Great to see RVP on the score sheet too.

    The WWE and Stanley Kroenke have reached an agreement for RAW tomorrow. Not in Denver as originally scheduled but at the Staples Centre in LA.
    Bit of a huge mix up there.

    Delighted to see Mannone getting his first game. Sounds like the team played very well.

    RVP top of the assists chart for the season I think.
