AW on SSN said about David Villa ..they (Barca) do not want to sell so you must respect their wish (not exact quote )...Yes always respect the wish o the selling club and then fuck them anyway. Learn a lesson from Barca. By his tone it suggests the Villa story may be more than newspaper rumour. So where are the "we would love David here, it's made for him "quotes from Caz, Arteta etc ?

The media bullshit is just a convenient excuse for him, yet again. The press start printing loads of bollocks about us being in for a player we're never ever going to sign, the player's club is prompted to say we don't want to sell him (standard response unless a player is completely surplus to requirements), Wenger will then pretend we tried to buy him but they wouldn't sell when in reality he's done fuck all. And so goes another transfer window, he pulls the wool over the eyes of the blinkered masses with his usual smoke and mirrors routine.

It would have been exactly the same had United not signed Zaha. Now I for one am glad we didn't sign him - but had he stayed at Palace Wenger would have undoubtedly made a lot of noise about how the clubs couldn't reach an agreement and how the asking price was too high and Palace didn't want to sell him mid-season. Whereas now it's an established fact that Palace were willing to sell him, Wenger was forced to concede that the interest that he professed to have in Zaha in press conferences for weeks was utter bollocks and we happily watched him go elsewhere with no intention of ever bidding.

Agree with what you are saying but the point bradywasking was making, if I am correct, is that wenger said that barca stated that villa was not for sale and as far as he is concerned that ends the conversation in the same way that it ends it when he tells clubs that his player is not for sale..........

Absolutely correct point also - we won't sign players unless either they or the club are desperate for it to happen. We are so fucking shy in the transfer market if we're after a good player, we'll just take no for an answer. The only time we'll really push hard to sign a player is if he's a nobody that no other big club is after like Park or Koscielny.

Think it was SteveO that questioned the last time we fought off big clubs to sign a player. If we know that Chelsea or whoever else are in for him we won't bid.

Thanks augie, I do agree with northbank123 that it is convenient for Wenger to use the media to create an illusion that he was or was not in for players...what I was saying is if he did want a player like Villa (and I think there is truth in the rumour) why not use the dirty tricks that Barca have perfected.

I did pick up on that brady although we can hardly flex our muscles to the same extent. To start with Fabregas was clearly desperate to go back to Barcelona, it was hardly a secret. Secondly, they had the world's best players, many of whom he'd grown up playing with every day and many of whom he knew well from international football, trying to persuade him there.

Not really the same to try and persuade Villa to leave a club nailed on to win the title with a strong chance of cup and European glory in the next few months (not to mention having had a third child yesterday) to come and join at best the 4th-best club in England ahead of any others. Chances are he's not particularly great mates with Cazorla and why would he listen to Arteta, a player who was never good enough to make an appearance for Barcelona or Spain?

By all means we should be more persistent with our bidding etc but we're not really capable of the same 'dirty tricks' even if we had a manager who actually wanted to sign players. If Villa was desperate to come to the Arsenal then fair enough but it doesn't seem like he is.

Read my comments again you arsehole and tell me where I wished ill health on wenger - what I actually said was that I dont care what reason causes wenger to leave as long as he leaves and I totally stand over that but it is a long way from wishing bad health on the senile old c**t :roll: :evil:
You dont like coming on here then dont bother. You like coming on here but dont like my comments then block my comments from showing up on your pc. If that doesnt suffice for you then make a complaint to the mods cos either ways I dont give a fcuk if I offend you or not 8)
