IF calafiori signs, 18 out the 24 signings that the cone boy has made in his tenure will have been either keepers, defenders or defensive midfielders :roll:

She said, "My name's Anna."

Arsenal fans judged price tag, not my football - Pepe

Just saw his face pop up in an Arsenal shirt and it sent me into a cold sweat. Thought we'd bought him again.

No, Arsenal fans judged you because for the vast majority of your time in an Arsenal shirt you resembled a Koala bear high as a kite on eucalyptus and you only lept into action when someone starting f*c*ing coconuts at you up in your tree. Even then at best you changed the look from utterly baked to a cross between mildly baked and early morning startled by a noise downstairs.

Take a look at the first picture in the article and multiply it by the majority of time in the jersey.

If you were sweating with effort and banging goals in noone would give a rats what you cost you utter f*c* knuckle!

Just read what he said and fuck me he obviously doesn't realise just how he was viewed as being either fucktard lazy, or off his quonch on Khat....Or Both!

" Despite his disappointing time at Emirates Stadium, Pepe says he is grateful for how his 2023 exit was handled in north London and that he still "respects" manager Mikel Arteta.

"They helped me when leaving,

If it had been me I'd have just kicked you out of the door and let you find your own way to the nearest taxi...

which wasn't easy because I was injured, so my recovery wasn't easy... they helped me find a club quickly," he explained. "So, I definitely left the club on good terms.

Didn't know Laziness was an injury :banghead:

"I have always had a great relationship with Arteta. It's just that he didn't have full confidence in me, which is a shame.

Maybe because you were fucking Lazy and didn't put in the effort

"He put together a winning team, and sadly, I wasn't in that player turnover. But he's someone I respect, and I know he respects me too. And I wish him all the best."

Pepe now feels the difficult time will make him mentally stronger.

"With the pressure I went through at Arsenal, I'm in a pretty good headspace now," he said.

You dozey fucker, you looked like an extra from 'The Walking Dead' who was on Ganja! :roll:

It's true he wasn't responsible for the £72million price tag, but he didn't even fucking "Try"!!!

How about Ivan Toney if the price was reasonable (like less than 50m) ?

For arguments sake let's say we could get him for around 45m? Would you take it?

I think I would.


Just throwing this into the pot to see reactions.

I would take Toney at £45m. He offers something different - not the most prolific of CF’s but in our system he’s easily score goals.

Problem is, so the rumours go, Arteta and/or some of our players/coaching staff didn’t like his attitude when the idea of signing him was first floated. Again, rumours (that I read online so take it with a cement mixer of salty).


If I were allowed to be greedy, I’d fuck Jesus off being in Toney and Olmo or Williams and try and coach Martinelli as a CF.

I'd sign him for £50m without a seconds hesitation - better than jesus and miles better than the feather
