Players play.

They'll do what they are told to do by the manager or else they will be sold.

1/2/3 players will not win you a league. It's about the collective.

It's about a philosophy. It's about tactics, organisation, a plan. It's about round pieces in round holes.

For every piano player you ...

I don't think it matters what we pay them.

I don't think it matters whether they stay or not.

I don't think it matters who we sign.

The club is broken.

We have been outplayed by City and out fought by Everton, granted, in two tough away games.

We will beat most teams most of the time.

The ...

Yeh a lot of reports in Spanish and German papers saying he's off and unhappy with the clubs ambition. Could be agent talk for a better contract but would anyone blame him for wanting to leave?

Imagine being promised that you are joining a club with serious ambition, then get stuck with ...

What is he?

Not disciplined or tough enough to play as a second holding midfield. (Wanyama gave him a lesson at St Marys)

Not good enough to play behind the striker. (He's not Ozil)

Won't play out wide. (Cuts in too much)

He is a really good player, and will do well against most teams, in games ...

I have never seen anyone play like Mesut Ozil, so its impossible to compare him to anyone.

He is anonymous in every game for long periods.

In the course of a game he watches the plebs go through the motions. THEN ITS ON.

Space. A runner. A pass. More often than not, a miss. Thats because he is ...

Hell yeah!!!!

Assuming everything pans out as expected and we are 2nd/3rd, who do gooners want to come 4th.

Maybe we care, maybe we don't. But it has huge significance for MU or da Pool.

First of all you have the reward of £25/£30m for qualifying for CL. That's 5 players on £100k a week. Everything now is ...

As its only a loan, I can guarantee you that Arsenal are still picking most of his 100k a week salary.

Italian clubs don't pay big money any more. Ill bet Inter are contributing 20k a week, max.

Thus, we are down a goal scorer, and paying 80k a week for the privilage.

This is pure speculation on ...

This thread is so irrelevant.

Doesn't matter who we sign.

Once AW gets his hands on them, they're finished.

We have plenty of good players.

Our problem is terrible management, archaic training methods ensuring regular long term injuries, complete absence of any tactical application and a ...

Its hard not to be impressed by his recent performances. I, for one, cannot see why Schez should automatically get his place back.

I know AW has form in this department; but it was Seaman, although Manninger was mightily impressive.

I would not drop Martinez when Shez is back fit.

This is ...

Respect to Tim.

Fair dues to him for doing something we have all dreamt about.

Is this the ultimate insult?

Saloman Kalou?

This has finished me.

Please Arsene! Before you lose all your dignity. On my worst day I wouldn't play/buy/pay him.

We've gone over the edge.

Time for a change.

Conduct yourself with your normal good grace and retire in may.

Thank you

No. Of course he shouldn't be welcomed back. He is a selfish conniving little man.

He left because he wanted to work with AF and join a team who were in contention to win a league. Fair enough. Its a valid footballing reason.

The fact that they were rivals of ours and the fact that AW had stuck ...

Thought Everton were fantastic today. Arsenal were as well. Both teams went for it, balls out. They were the best team I've seen us play, apart from Dortmund.

It really is there for us. We have a serious squad of mainly interchangeable players. The back five are flying. Our midfield is the key. We ...

P.S. I have to say I was wrong about RVP, can't believe how good he is for Man U. He looks way better with them than he ever did for us. And to quote ANR, I don't think he will kill Welbeck, he will make him better.

I'm sure Arsene knows best?
