Arsenal Talk/Gossip/Rumours Thread 2016

Jaysus why did I bother posting in the United thread. Their fans are like a lad who was on a long barren spell boasting about shagging an ugly granny because they have broken their duck

* then again their players have form for that

Ill give them their due they showed great character with ten men deep into extra time. Palace had the boot on their throat at that stage. On several occasions we have fallen asunder with eleven during normal time and then we are reminded of the great character of this squad by our manager. :rolleyes:

As much as I dislike Jose and Utd, let's be realistic this could end up very well for them.

With Jose in charge there more likely to win a league than us in the next 3 years but at least we'll have class............ and morals and no trophies

United are a great club so it's not nice to see them appoint someone who's so classless. I'll just sit back now and wait until they realise just how classless he actually is.

Back to the football lads.
I thought Bolasie had a great game for Palace today, very busy and posed a threat all game. Nice player.

Oh only Arsenal fans have noticed that?

Very underrated player for Palace is Mike Jedinak. One of the best defensive midfielder's in the league. Does a great job protecting his back four and not afraid to take his yellows. Great leader too. Surprised none of the bigger clubs ever made a move for him tbh.

The one upside is Mata might be available now though. He can play on the wing

Did you lot sign Xahka? I really wanted to see him at Liverpool

Well it looks like football's equivalent of food poisoning is on his way to Old Trafford.

Luckily, your manager officially owns him in head to head, and you'll have several million extra fans at least two days next season.

Not the season after that, because he won't last that long.

They did realise, when he was at Chelsea. Then they wanted him themselves, and suddenly he's not classless. Such is football, fans are fickle.

Jose Mourinho, rather him there than us. The timing is all wrong, at least let LVG enjoy his victory in a cup final ffs. Could have easily announced it next week, if it's Mourinhos camp leaking it now of all times, well then it just confirms what a classless prick Mourinho is, wouldn't want that turd anywhere near Arsenal.

He is classless. Personally, I don't give a f*ck if he is winning. I'm sure most United fans would feel the same.
Where are you getting this narrative that we all suddenly changed our minds and don't think he's classless anymore? Your own head?

You sound like a really classy guy yourself :rolleyes:

Never claimed I was Fred. LVG wins your first trophy in 3 seasons, but yet the back pages will be dominated by Jose! Classy.

And who's fault is that? The announcement hasn't come from United. Did you expect United to hang on to him on the strength of one game where they needed extra time to beat a 15th place club?

Think its a bit harsh to criticise him for not running away with the final. City for example lost to an almost relegated Wigan in 2013, Arsenal nearly blew it against Hull. Cup finals take on a life of their own. At the end of the day a trophy is a trophy.

A win is a win. Just reinforcing my point. Had it been Arsenal or City I would be saying the same thing.
He was going before the game. Basing the decision on a one off cup game in May and disregarding the whole 2 years would be quite ridiculous yeah?

Errr it's either a leak by United or a leak coming from the new United Managers camp. Either way it represents the new regime taking effect at Old Trafford. I have no love for Ferguson but he did have standards and he certainly wouldn't have stooped to the level of some of the behaviour we have seen from JM in Chelsea and other clubs.

What's this got to do with Arsenal???

It's a leak from Mendes apparently. Your friend seemed to be directing the "classy" comment at United.

Wenger hasn't beaten Mourinho in the league yet, so it has all to do with us. #joke

Leaked by his agent Mendes which sounds about right, Mourinho is trending on the twitter machine so I guess thats mission accomplished for today

AFAIK we are allowed discuss the management of our rivals if we want to
