All this 'posturing' from Wonga about Sanchez etc......'he will not be sold, 'we will let him go for free at the end of the season' blah blah blah is all done to push the selling price up now. Arsenal will end this transfer window with a big profit from sales v money spent, just what Wonga promised Kranky when the CL money didn't come this season!
I dont think Gabriel was so bad and nowhere near as bad as lushny and stepanovs but not speaking english and working in a defence that doesn't know what its doing hasn't helped him one bit.

Spot on Herd... I think with proper training he could have turned out a lot more than alright. It doesn't help not speaking English and not having at least one calm, competent leader alongside him. Imagine what it must have been like for him, surrounding by wild eyed, panic stricken, headless chickens running around in circles screeching in a foreign language. I bet he can't wait to leave.
And he'll leave forever wondering who Steve Bould is, and what he does.
Stepanovs seem to remember him in the 8-2 defeat at the Manx.....is he still earning a living at playing football????
I think you are thinking of the 6-1 defeat at OT in 2001, he was long gone by the 8-2. I know it gets confusing with all these hammerings we've received under Wanger.

Yeah, lads - if you are talking about some of the hammerings we have received under Wenger you will need to qualify your post with dates etc... there has been THAT many.

Yes thanks lads....tried to erase those painful memories.....
My mind may be playing tricks on me , but was Gabriel not outstanding in the second half of the Cup semi final v City ?
See him as an average defender made worse by the lack of coaching and organisation around him..
I hate to say it but it looks like Sanchez will be sold to City. Wenger will use the excuse it was the boards decision. When he starts scoring goals for them and we lose a few games it will be worse than last season in terms of fan unrest.
Then it will be impossible to sign anyone world class because Arsenal will be seen as a club in crisis.
Happy Times.
I think Sanchez will go and a few more ,now Mustafi is being sold too ? so we sell the squad players we actually need to keep the dross that we cant move on ????????
We should simply let go of the deadwood and keep those we need instead of selling good players for the hell of it !
Another Arsenal transfer window is looming !
