An Arsenal- Spuds Combined XI?

Post by Wengerball »

Ok folks, a bit of a painful question but there has been a lot of talk in recent years about who from the dirty lot would get in our team. Unfortunately at the moment, for me at least, its looking a bit dire.

Trying to be honest I would go with this

Szcesney
Santos
Vemaelen
Kaboul
Walker
Monkey boy (Bale)
Parker
Modric
Gervinho
Van Persie
Adebarndoor


I know its awful to have so many Spuds in the team but I am really struggling to come up with players at the Arsenal that have the required quality to go toe to toe with the scum.

Walcott suppose you could argue should get a place but I dont rate him to be honest.

What winds me up the most is that some of the Spuds players havent cost the Earth and yet they still seem to a level above some of ours (even those not mentioned in the XI)

Van Der Vaart- £8m
Parker- £5m
Kyle Walker- £6m
Bale- £6m

You picked gervinho ?? :shock: :shock: I wouldnt pick the brainless forehead to play for our team much less the best between both clubs :roll: Seriously the guy is not good enough or anywhere near it and doesnt have the football intelligence to play at the top level

Secondly there is no right back in the whole league that is better than sagna and that is a fact 8)

They bloody well shouldn't be- they have hardly broken the bank with their signings. We've spent money on players in the same price range so i think the comparison is fair
:oops:

They've overspent for shite like Pavlwhathisname and Gomes also.

But meltedcheese has done a remarkable job for them.

Doesn't stop it being f'ing depressing though.

I suppose we had a good run, it was never going to last with the way things are being run at N5 these days

Still hope that twicthy c**t gets sent down :twisted:

Stop the Press- I've made a grave error on this thread..


When would any Arsenal players line up in a 4-4-2 formation? Cant say I've ever seen that happen. Perish the thought :oops:

:oops:
we want to achieve top 4 status with as small a outlay as possible and will only bid/make public interest last minute to pressure the selling club into a cheaper price, by that time all the good players are gone and there is also a risk you cant agree terms with your No1 target in time and have to find an alternative ANY alternative (ie benayoun)

I think I would probably put Bale in instead of Gervinho
