THE WENGER THREAD

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

you're right, continuing this would be boring
IHH know better than either Weah and Henry about their own careers,
Being selected for Arsenal and Barcelona doesn't show that a young African picked in Corsica has improved.

Becomes clear this is a dead end argument.
You will not credit Wenger with anything positive,
in your world his selection of players and ability to improve them is nothing special...
This is a fantasy world.

Judas H. Priest!! Now you are behaving childishly!! :oops: Just because I pulled you up on a couple of your examples doesn't mean or prove that I 'know more about players careers than they do' or that 'I don't give credit to Wenger for anything positive'!! :roll: :roll:

Look back at the responses you gave every time a part of your view was questioned by someone over the past few pages of this thread, and you backed up your subsequent answer to include either verbal hear-say, speculation or just plain bad case examples. If you don't like being picked up on stuff perhaps you shouldn't be so quick to do so to others. :roll:

In the spirit of BabaBenitez
FACT: Weah and Henry have both hugely credited Wenger for the development of their careers
FACT: you don't accept he's due that credit

verbal hearsay just means I cant find the Henry vids
G88ner said he'd heard a similar interview.
Here's a video of Weah dedicating his WPOY award to Wenger.
He actually hands it over to him FFS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssztbvCrJKk

why do you even post here you?
you are a truly worthless pathetic muppet - following me from thread to thread with your sad little bleating
I support my team all over Europe spending thousands of pounds
your serious proposition is I do this to give me an opportunity to wind you up?
you are honestly that truly solipisitically retardly self-obsessed??
get a grip on yourself

your mum wouldn't bother to listening to you reading tomorrows winning lottery numbers
WTF would strangers on the internet care enough to tailor their posts to you?

Armchair & JD - lads, drop it now, huh?

No one wants to be dishing out warnings and/or bannings. Just ignore each other. Enjoy the forum. Have fun.

Afraid jd is the biggest wum on here.
So to use the example of Red Member. Hes very difficult to ignore when he posts his nonsensical, arrogant, insulting "stuff" on every thread, winding up other members, posting only for an argument.

Hes personally insulted me quite a few times and again here above yet he seems to get away with persistent wumming.
Red Member was nowhere near his level. :roll:

armchair I beg you to click ignore

I really have no interest in your views and opinions
yet here I am stalked by furniture, a self-proclaimed 'armchair' following me from thread to thread repeating ad nauseum the bizarre claim I'm creating opinions or stories to upset you
I'm not, dude I don't know you, I don't care what your opinions are - I have no interest in making you happy or unhappy
please leave it

Sorry JD, but I do think that post is just embarrassing.

I know that armchair (and perhaps others) test your patience, but IHH made a reasonable point, and you respond with that childish drivel? :(

No need. If you're bored of debating a point, find a better way of saying so.

And where have I claimed otherwise? Please show me. :roll:

highburyJD wrote:FACT: you don't accept he's due that credit
No, that's NOT a fact!! :evil: This conversation arose over a debate about stubbornness and judgement. Despite what you claimed getting Weah over from Africa (cheaply) to give him the opportunity to make it in a big league was not a sign of stubbornness bearing fruit but more a gamble coming off; Paying £10.5m for a player you already knew about, who had been a striker most of his life and then playing him there and then seeing him reward you within a few months by scoring loads is not Wenger's stubbornness being proven right!!
highburyJD wrote:verbal hearsay just means I cant find the Henry vids
G88ner said he'd heard a similar interview...
No, it means that when g88ner pulled you up about "everyone criticising Pires playing on the Left' you claimed it "was a particular issue for those who sat near me at Highbury";

Or when I picked you up on the Petit remark you said "I meant persisted with playing out of position" as if gooners were scratching their head about the decision due to Petit's poor performances there;

and when DB10 disputed your claim that "people on here have already decided Giroud is rubbish" you brushed that away. Then there are all the references to Song which frankly were pointless because I had already made clear early on that the important question for me was whether he was good enough to help Arsenal win the major trophies. Wenger (and presumably you) thought yes, I and many others thought no.

What's the point of that? :? Or had you forgotten what I wrote on the previous page (Note the part in bold!!)....
I Hate Hleb wrote: No, what I said was that it was obvious Weah would have doubts having come from Liberia with only a few matches under his belt, and equally obvious that Wenger would try and give him the confidence that he could make it!! The fact that he gave credit to Wenger for helping him has never been disputed.
You've often accused others of using the straw man defence but you've proven quite proficient at using it yourself when it suits!! :roll: :roll: :oops:
