not sure he's a 'proper DM'... more Pirlo than Makalele
yeh your right (we agree) haha
He is very versatile, and very strong defensively. Not a dm but would suit our midfield (much better than song) and would be a vast upgrade big time
I would play him in the same role as song but better defensively and consistent
Good player that works hard helping the back 4 with good concentration and still strong going forward.

I admitted previously that I havent really seen enough of the guy to rate him either way with any real confidence but I did see a youtube compilation clips where the guy def seems to like a physical tackle and that is a big plus for me Of course the fact that song gives away sooooo many free kicks is a real issue but it also really pisses me off that so many of them are for cheap petty fouls - I would be a bit more tolerant if some of those free kicks were given away with an agressive bone crunching tackle but the cameroon c**t likes to pull shirts and petty trips which is ridiculous imo

Thought November was still the projected date...
signing Sahin and keeping Song would make me worry about Jack's return...
yes but you need to use the Arsenal Injury Calculator Equation (it even confused Einstein)
I = injury
P = player
M2 = Arsenal medical team
PD = Projected Date of Return
TFH = They (medical team0 have fucked him up worse than when he was injured
FD = Fucking Disaster
RRD = Real return Date
So.
P + I = PD (October) x M2 + TFH = FD (to the power of 10) : (Therefore) RRD = March 2013.
Of course the fact that song gives away sooooo many free kicks is a real issue but it also really pisses me off that so many of them are for cheap petty fouls - I would be a bit more tolerant if some of those free kicks were given away with an agressive bone crunching tackle but the cameroon c**t likes to pull shirts and petty trips which is ridiculous imo 
So.
