Bale & Modric

Bale & Modric

Post by Red Member »

they both want CL football
why are we not putting offers in for these 2 like we did with Sol Campbell from Spurs in the past?

it would take our rivals down and fire us up for a shot at the title.


I cant believe there has been no transfer activity since the end of the season.
There is no ambition whatsoever at Arsenal any more, it is a great shame.

They will join teams who want to win trophies

They will both cost over £30m Wenger would never pay £20m on any player

It would kill Gervinho and Ramsey

Hope that answers your question

Sol was out of contract and free to choose who he went to. Add the fact that Spurs wouldn't sell either player to us to Donaldo's list of reasons.

Soon we will get the customary quote about how hard the club are working ("day and night") in the transfer market whilst City, United, Chelsea etc will close out their business in the space of a couple of weeks.

Anyway, there's been some activity. Haven't we signed the 12 year old from Birmingham City yet?

He is agreeing personal terms with Manchester City first, to be ready for the 2018/2019 season.

a) Campbell was available on a free
b) Campbell is from London and wanted to stay in London
c) when he joined us we were 1 of only 2 English clubs capable of winning the League
d) he was joining a club that players like Bergkamp, Henry, Vieira, Seaman and Adams

a) Bale and Modric are not even English
b) they don't give a shit where they play as long as someone is offering 150k per week +
c) There are 3 clubs in England capable of winning the PL & CL next season and guess what we're not one of them
d) they would be joining a club whose main stars will be Podolski and Wilshere (until he eventually gets fucked off too)

I think that might answer it Red

He needs the attention, so when his wum threads or repeat threads are deleted/merged, he finds a suitable pointless topic on which to start a thread - because that's the whole point.

Both players are overrated and think we could buy much better players for less money.
