He was an arrogant little prick who had no focus or direction because that’s what he was allowed to be.
My abiding memory is when he came off the bench 2-0 down at home to Chelsea and when he ran onto the pitch the first thing he did was to give Fabregas a huge cheesy grin and pat him on the back. Fabregas looked embarrassed. Summed up the blokes complete lack of focus and perspective for me.
My abiding memory is the day we played manure at the grove and he was tearing them a new one when he was subbed with the score at 1-1 at the time - the reaction of utter disgust by rvp at the time makes it a stand out moment, and the fans went absolutely ballistic at the time too. I was absolutely going mental at the change when the sky camera's showed the fans in my area, and I got loads of text messages within minutes of being shown on tv Of course, because of the inspired tactical substition ( ) by mr 30+ years (clearly that number isnt getting higher any day soon ), we went on to lose that game

Sorry Augie but my abiding memory of this detestable little c u n t will be him mocking our 4-0 defeat by the mousers, a game in which he represented our club and more importantly our fans!!
So forgive me for not giving a flying fuck and maybe even a fucking grin if he never plays again !
Fuck him!
And it is too easy to lay all the blame for his prolonged shitness at Wenger's door. Other players developed to some degree under Wenger because they wanted to and because they tried hard to. This little bollocks would misplace one pass and his head would drop. He has no character no grit. He is more interested in his hairstyle parties with his "crew" of hanger ons than in becoming a top player.
It's starkly noticeable that he did not make the huge leap forward under "tactical genius" Kloppy Klown that so many predicted. Yeah he had two good games and smashed one great goal. Oh look that's what he did for us every season ffs.
And taking the piss about the 4-0? You played in that humiliating defeat you Fucking unintelligent mong cùnt!!
I think it's a shame because I wanted to see whether he did genuinely progress...or not...at a new club so that experiment is clearly fucked.
I wonder what old red nose up at manure would have done with the likes of the ox and even wally....would he have nurtured them into proper players.....or would he have sacked his scouts for gross negligence/stupidity.
Klopp contradicting himself here, having just spent £60m + on a defender and about to spend £60m on a goalkeeper, who I certainly wouldn't rate as one of the top 3 in the world. Surely when you are spending that money you have to get the best. I am very pleased we have done our work in the transfer market without spending ridiculously big like Pool seem to have done lately.
How is it that the Victims can spend 170 million, yet we've only got 60m?

because we have Stan Kroenke as the owner
Kroenke is richer than Pools owners. But that’s not the point is it really. I would rather we buy a blend of youth and experience for a prudent amount as Arsenal always have done, than try to blow the bank to buy the league. Klopp has no excuses now he’s spent big and anything other than winning the league is failure imo.
The refreshing thing from Arsenal’s perspective is each transfer seems measured rather than last minute and panicked. Our squad is stronger for it. Having more solidity through the spine will make our front line formidable when things click.

Arsene is that you ??
That is the mentality that le french cock ingrained in many of you over the years That c.umt wouldnt spend cos he knew spending would put pressure on him to perform (or at least it would take away his excuses), and then he spewed absolute bollox about values etc etc Personally I would rather spend the money we have to try and improve - if that means signing a £50m keeper instead of a £20m keeper then I am ok with it IF the player is a good player. We are now shopping in the 2nd or 3rd level for sure, but dont tell me any of us wouldnt prefer to be signing the best players in the world
Btw there is no sane person that would view things that way - has he spent more than pep or moaninho ? I dont think so and I know that only 1 club can win the league, so the only way he can be viewed as a failure is if the victims dont improve this season

We were like that before Wenger turned up Augie. Never the biggest spenders.
The last time Arsenal made a transfer record signing was DB10, and that same month Collymore went to Pool for more. It’s a fact, compare our spending vs the other top 4/5 clubs we rarely come top. Saying it’s something Wenger instilled in us is ridiculous. Arsenal has always operated with a degree of financial prudence, certainly since as far as I can remember. A lot of that was overseen by David Devin.
Klippity walked in on Allison's interview after he signed last night..It is normal for manager to be there for the press conference or interview but not for the manager to interrupt it..Another sign that it always about Klopp, he is developing an ego that Wenger and Mourinho could dream of.
Remember the kids waiting at the Liverpool coach for autographs and photos last Summer .Klippity blanked them because Sky or BT were not there to capture another man of the fans moment.

He's quickly become some type of German version of a Redkrapp/Allardyce hybrid given his only real "tallent" is self publicity. He's RedDyce or AllarKrapp.
He is in more TV ads than anyone else in the history of the game. He constantly goes looking for the cameras, regularly "accidently" walks in on others' interviews and the whole fake man of the fans running up and down the sideline to celebrate is the fakest horseshit I've ever seen.
Just a complete over-rated prick that has lost 6 count them 6 of 7 finals and yet some simple bastards will insist he is a "tactical genius".
Nut Flush I know that we have never been the biggest spenders, but you said that you prefer us to operate that way - personally I like to work on a deal by deal basis and if a genuine top quality player is available, then I would want us to fight to sign him if we can afford it. That isnt me saying that I'm not happy with our transfer business this window cos I am - I know that it is more functional than spectacular, but the senile arrogant c.unt left us in a mess and with too many holes to fill, so we need to play more players instead of fewer high profile ones
Of course, because of the inspired tactical substition ( 
), we went on to lose that game 
of hanger ons than in becoming a top player.
