The best teams pay their best players massive wages.At United RVP is on 4 times what Rafael Evans Cleverly and Hernandez are on.At Arsenal he was on £20k a week ahead of Diaby Rosicky Gervinho and Chamakh :shock: .Thats the Karl Marx style of management we have at Arsenal.Reward the shite as much as the top players everyone is equal.Thats why we will never sign a Goetz or a Falcao.We will continue to buy the likes of Giroud and Gervinho. Arsenals wage bill is less than £20m behind United yet on the pitch we are a million miles behind.

I'm in shock. Can't believe no one has pointed out that Colin Kazim-Richards is back after his ban

Wasn't sure where to put this but:

''A 52-year-old IT consultant in India is currently receiving thousands of congratulations tweets as his Twitter handle is @RVP. His real name Ravi Visvesvaraya Sharada Prasad.''

without vanStaplecunt ManUre may never have won the league,
its a horrific, hurtful fek up of a transfer

but we can say 'grass is greener' to the Barca boys Overmars, Petit, Song or Hleb or forced through moves
then were nothing but bit part players.
Even Vieira, who seemed to win the league every season after he left,
and Henry who did a treble, were never the same dominant players again

Na$ri was a sub, a title winning sub, but a sub nonetheless
SuperBobby, who I was desperate for us to keep - had an instant serious injury
Cesc hasn't even nailed down a position yet



personally I wish we kept Gilberto

Come off it. He has a lot still to prove and needs to find more end product before he can make a step up but his touch, control, passing and burst over 5 yards mark him out head & shoulders above the shite clogging up most premier league midfields - foreign or english. You make him sound like lee cattermole :roll:
Have to agree with LDB here.
Jack has the potential to be the best English midfielder since Gazza.

Think you are gonna have to retract that jd - it was only a couple of months ago when he had a total hissy fit after the sun printed a story that he was about to sign a new deal and he went ballistic as he felt that it was done to scaremonger the fans as we were in the middle of one of our regular shit run of forms :roll:

May not have a history of kicking people out and he doesn't have the leverage Ferguson has so couldn't pull a stunt like the BBC nonsense but as well as the example Augie mentioned watched the Villa Park press conference and tell me he never has hissy fits. He also threw a strop when somebody questioned his recent signings and refused to answer the questions put to him, preferring to behave petulantly over details of Gervinho's transfer fee.

I can only imagine his indignation if somebody questioned whether we should really celebrate 4th place so much particularly given the prices fans are paying.

Retract? Did Wenger ban the Sun?
If so I fully retract it but as far as I knew he'd never banned any media
Fergie banned MUTV once FFS!
