Re: USMANOV/DEIN/HILL-WOOD - allegations etc

Why does everyone keep linking DD to an automatic return with Usmanov.He originally dealt with Kroenke, then Usmanov but he left 5 years ago and is not getting any younger ! He might be an interim step when Usmanov makes his attempt to buy at some stage but we are looking here at the bigger picture...

Re: As it will probably be the last opportunity to get answe

I always had these meetings down as a sad PR stunt by the club. Does Stan with his billions really give a shit about the fans... of course not. They are merely throwing us a bone with the meeting to make the fans feel valued by the club. Utter bollocks and a waste of an evening for all concerned.

Re: McDowell's VANITY 'Rumours' Thread

Yeah, I saw that too. Real Sociedad aren't the richest of clubs so £3 - £5m seems fair. I just hope they let him go for his sake as he has scored a fair few goals for them and deserves a chance elsewhere. To think he was a starter for the Mexican national side before AW got his hands on him, force f...

Re: McDowell's VANITY 'Rumours' Thread

Offloading the dross is easier said than done as we all know they have stupidly been put on big contracts before any of them have actually earned it. That is the biggest problem at the club not waiting for transfers to happen, trying to.find clubs stupid enough to take them is the biggest issue. Ye...

Re: Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

One thing about Hodgson so far he hasnt fallen for the Feo hype what fucking hype? he hasn't been hyped since 2008 :lol: Should have sold him the day after he got his hat trick. Might have bluffed somebody into paying £30 mill for him and saved us all years of frustration watching him do his headle...

Re: Van Persie Saga/Coffee morning

If you were RVP and not a life long gooner would you stay, would you... - honestly! Even as a life long gooner, I'd put my career first and leave. Put a superclub and trophies on my CV by trying to get a move to Barca, Real Madrid or United. Money would come a very distant third behind trophies and...

Re: Something sure to make most of you laugh!!

In fairness, Song has made advances this season. The expectations on him, as usual, are perhaps beyond what he is capable of. The guy thinks he has got to go marauding forwards all the time so perhaps we need to look at the genius who is coaching him to understand his faults. He certainly looked bet...

Re: USMANOV/DEIN/HILL-WOOD - allegations etc

which is all DD cares about - his personal ambitions So what? It gets results, how can somebody prioritising themself over the club possibly get results? Because for him to do well the club has to be doing well so it is a mutially beneficial relationship - DD's profile only rises when the club does...

Re: unbelieveble from djourou

Wenger has shown over the years that he hasn't got a clue when it comes to defenders. Apart from the Campbell / Toure partnership we have had to endure various crap signings of which Dodo is just another. Senderos still makes me shiver and Squillaci just proved that Wenger plays 'eeny meeny miny mo'...
