english players

Post by legend10 »

how many times have you sat there wondering why arsene never buys english players, well we all know now .2 words ashley cole

i cant stand international football and i totally despise engeeeeerrrrrllllllaannnd.

i love it when i hear other managers slagging arsene off for buying yet another foreigner. and then they go and do exactly the same (pardew)

how many of the top clubs have bought english in the past 4 seasons only for them to get splinters in their arses on the bench

i love watching the henrys, pires, bergkamps (latter sadly missed at the moment). they play with flare and class and have certain style that you wont find in any english players.

a lot of gooners say we need more english players but for me the more the foreigners the better

Im with Joshin69 on this one. As long as the player has the talent and can add to what we already have then I dont mind where the player comes from. Look at Toure . Years ago nobody looked at the Ivory Coast and yet Wenger has pulled out 2 gems in Kolo and Manu Eboue. We do have some good young English players . Kerrea Gilbert played well at right back when he deputised for Lauren then he had the misfortune to get injured himself and Eboue has never looked back . Hoyte is not a left back and he will be the first to admit that. But he was out on loan when 'Ralph' got injured and is now maybe down the pecking order.
