McDowell its over dude...no more - Hallelujah

Djourou is selling his house FACT!

Knowing our luck, he's just upgrading to RvP's house when he sells it next month...

[1989]

Giroud rejected Valencia, Malaga, Zenit & QPR in favour of Arsenal. All 4 clubs offered much higer wages than #afc (via @GrooverBlog )

Massive respect to the big man. Speaks volumes of his character as well, not in it for the cash only. Exactly the sort of player we need at this club.

Giroud deal to be announced 'within the next 48 hours'

Serious question - Is Giroud better than Bendtner?

Going by what Babs says I'm unsure.

Again, I've never seen Giroud play but I'm currently underwhelmed by this purchase.

Youre going by what Babs says? He told us sp*rs were going to shit all over us last season

And what a way to insult our new frontman, by comparing him to Billy Pink bollocks

anyone secretly hoping Holland go out?

secretly?? I pray this team full of coached by the biggest alive go out today and I even hope they lose the last game against Portugal

In unrelated transfer news, AC Milan president Silvio Berlusconi has just confirmed that Thiago Silva has been sold to PSG for 46m euros.

Told you so Now they need Djourou

[Supagoon]

ok Babs says he shit, he also said Marin would be a great signing , but he called gervinho right.

But he is unhinged so I won't take him seriously.

Shame it does not seem that we are getting that midfielder that we need.

[swimmer1]

Cheer up all happy that we make even a signing now days Giroud is a good striker between 10-15 mill our usual range for a decent player we will never spend much over that as we are the only ones in the FFP so onwards and upwards .

I knew as soon as I posted that you would cane me

I am genuinely worried about this signing though (And I have no idea why!) I hope I'm proved wrong...

[1989]

Giroud will be an excellent Plan B for away games like Stoke etc. He's 6"4' and a beast in the air. Basically he will be the player we hoped Chamakh was going to be for us.

[mikeyb772001]

Bapa was right about gervinho but I knew that about him before we signed him.

Giroud on the other hand is a different kind of player by all accounts. Likes to shoot on goal and is a real striker. 21 goals in 40 games is good with 9 assists and something Gerv, bendy and Cham have never done in there whole careers



So I would say giroud is a good signing

[donaldo]

Who knows how good he really is?.But the last 3 strikers we bought from France were Chamakh Gervinho and Park.The jury is definately out.But as a replacement for RVP its underwhelming

It could have been worse - I could have compared him to Chamakh . . .

Absolutely loving this - Theo's raring to sit that pine! Am I the only one who finds it hysterical that the Ox is in ahead of Theo?

I also wonder if he is off this summer as well...

[flash gunner]

Bapa was right about gervinho but I knew that about him before we signed him.

If you throw enough predictions out there soon enough you'll get one or two right and many of baba's predictions were made after the event such as Gervinho Bab wasn't a member of the board when we signed him so not sure how he predicted he'd be shit We could all see he was struggling from the start so that makes us all mystic meg?
