Why the concern?
Abou's 'slight muscle strain' will turn into three months out...by which time the January window will come along.
And by which time Lord Wenker can serenade us proles by claiming that Diaby 'will be like a new signing'

You know the bit on this thread when I said there were people out there wanting him to fail..........
Is he injured :shock: you couldn't make it up, well maybe you could :wink:
As for wanting him to fail, surely he has failed consistently since his return from his break.

Steve O, what I said was mostly in jest and you know that - I want AFC to succeed at all costs and I am well aware that for that to happen it will need wenger, diaby, feo and the forehead (to name but 4) to succeed also but in the meantime that shouldn't stop me wanting all 4 out of our club should it ? :? Every single player (to date anyway) that joins our club will get a fair crack of the whip with me but unlike some I believe that retaining support is conditional and when a guy appears brainless, is constantly injured and admits publicly that he wears a scum shirt while in his own house, then that support evaporates fast with me. I will also add that it is possible for me to change my opinion of him if he shows that he deserves it but playing 3 games in a row (one of which he was shit in :roll: ) doesn't come near justifying a change of opinion for me

Diaby at Liverpool did indeed have a very good afternoon, but let's not forget how poor Liverpool were and how open their midfield was.

All and sundry are raving about Diaby on the back of one game, whereas the average performances v Sunderland and Stoke (and previous seasons of disappointment) have been forgotten. Let's hope he can continue to play like that consistently and against the better opponents in the league.

I cannot stress this enough. I want Diaby out of the club never to be seen again. Diaby is no RVP. RVP didn't get injured anywhere near as much as this basketball player. He's had 3 good games. Big effing deal. Does it excuse the 7 seasons of being absent? The assault on JT in the CC final, the own goal that helped UTD to beat us, the stupid dismissal against Newcastle 2 years ago that cost us 3 points and led to our downfall?


Fuck no.


Diaby I pray every fucking season that you would just fuck off. Go to America and play basketball you tall stupid piece of shit. It makes me sick when people put your name alongside the likes of Viera.

If he'd of been sent off you wouldn;t be saying that.It's a lack of professionalism. Face it the guy is a walking disaster.

He's not injured, this is France's way of respecting Arsenal.

He's just come back from a long time out and they are being sensible with him.

I don't care if Diaby becomes superman overnight and never gets injured. The guy fucking screwed us over against Newcastle. 4-0 up and all he had to fucking do was stay on the pitch. The challenge was perfectly fine and i'm the sort of person who hates Joey Barton.

Why would he have been sent off when there was no malice at all and it was simply him trying to clear the ball?

Amazing comments on here. I'm going to stop wasting my time after this post - the very people that argued with me that 'nobody wants him to fail' just need to look back on some of the pea-brained shite posted on the last couple of pages.

When he bosses the midfield its because Liverpool were shit and their captain disinterested. Yep that renowned shit pair of Gerrard and Allen. I mean Steven Gerrard has a reputation for being idle and disinterested doesn't he?

Diaby was also clearly the sole shit player against Sunderland (he actually wasn't that bad, and please tell me other than Cazorla who did play well going forward that day). I mean, it was his fault that Giroud missed the sort of chance even Walnutt might have converted. Perhaps one day Abou will develop Theo or Gervinho's natural flair for the game

He personally cost us the game at Newcastle too. Yep, lovely old Joey Barton wouldn't harm a fly would he and didn't go in 'studs up'. Didn't get Gervinho sent off last season either. And Phil Dowd's 2 penalty performance and Rosicky's one man calamity show didn't come into it either. Just Diaby......as usual

By the way, can someone remind me about the nothing story with the Spurs shit again. That one really adds value to the argument and it must be at least five posts since we last heard it. Presumably the same people all still bent up and twisted about Andy Murray winning tournaments because he made some tongue in cheek remark about Ing-er-lund six years ago

Fuckin hell get over it mate, do you hate Henry for missing a chance against Barcelona too? Do you hate van Persie for getting sent of at the Nou Camp? Do you hate your parents for lieing to you about Father Christmas?

You just want a stick to beat him with and it's a bit pathetic.

Free your mind, failing that bring up Diaby in a Spurs (Which i'm sure was tounge in cheek) shirt and hate him for that too.
