As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

What is the big deal about him being former Manure It really doesn't matter a shit does it. Will all those that are against him refuse to celebrate winning the CL final if he gets the only goal of the game???? Thought not.
wat about when pat jennings came to us - he was old and cheap and he did well for us and from a big rival - we gave him a chance
Finally, a valid point from Calo. Keep thatup and you might last the week
willie young was a bit younger and im not sure if its similiar but he also came from arival
- we used to sing his songs in the the north bank

So answer me why different to Campbell or Gallas?
as I already said on ANOTHER thread Gallas choosed to leave Chelsea for Arsenal so did Campbell both where first team regulars both where younger!
If Silvestre was a first choice player would he move to Arsenal!!
No but would we have got him for £750,000 reportedly and £50k a week?
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also see you didnt answer the earlier thread!
I could Answer it if you want but I base most of my posts on all things Arsenal and not mud slinging at other members if you want to do that then do it!
but dont have the front to tell me to grow up because I dont agree with you!!!!!
Ok take away the top paragraph then and answr it only perely Arsenal and football terms!
No?
Didn't think so!
Every time you pipe up and knock someone for having a dig at an Arsenal player remember you called Silvestre a midget who cant head a ball before he even kicked a ball for us!
this is one of the weirdest signings Mr Wenger has made but i think he will be good backup i just really hope thats not the signing he was talking about before the Champions League game

Think we all hope that fella but like I have said before I see this as a good added bonus!
If it is the "other" signing then I think we will have been cheated and an obvious whole in our midfield missed!

What's the prob? Players come and go, always have done. Hope he does a good job for us.
Perhaps we've just got so used to buying all our players from abroad that we find it harder to trust players joining from our direct rivals.

hes really good player - with the man u back 4
brown vidic ferdinant elra hardly ever injured playing well he couldnt get back in
I don't understand all this anomosity towards midgets I like midgets, in fact I have to confess that once upon a time I used to be only three foot tall, was great for looking up ladies skirts Give the little man a chance
has anyone seen his interview on arsenal tv online. it mentions on the website -how the move came about? perhaps this could tell us whether it is a last minute thing or this really is the "certain, one more body, before twente" signing. i hope not. CDM wenger, inler!!
50k a week (relatively high for us and around the same as we were offering Flamini I think?) would seem to suggest he might be more than just a squad player. I’d be much happier if he’s coming in primarily as back-up and please god don’t let this mean that we’re not gonna be brining in a new midfielder!
Personally I don’t really have a problem with the Ushited connection - other than a slight concern over Ferguson’s willingness to sell him to us in the first place (even given the contract situation). Still it wouldn’t be the first time the red-nosed-c*nt’s been wrong.
Anyone know if him and Gallas have played regularly together for France and if they were any good as a pairing?
i don't know why people are annoyed that we have signed him its not like old red nose has sent him into the Arsenal camp to rock the boat he's a professional footballer who got a last chance to play for a top club of course he is going to take that chance and in return we got a decent enough quality for back up

Fuck me old boots - Calo's first non-retarded post!
"SAF is fucking running us down. I have no faith in him. his lousy descisions are costing us results"
"I never thought United would have a traitor in our ranks! Silvestre is now a Judas Scum!"
"Goodbye and good luck! From is temporary, but class is permanent!" - majority say the same really but the above 2 posts - clearly the club's fanbase is full of crackheads
i am lost for words.
when i heard we had signed a experienced french player he would of been one the last people to even cross my mind.
i have no idea what to make of it
im glad that we have made the manc pissed off but is silvestra really what we are loking for.
i serioulsy have no idea what to make of all this
