Kim Kallstrom - the saviour? Arsene knows

[Ryanswannell]

This story has to be bollocks, surely? I cant believe the has-been would actually sign an injured player to cover our other injured players.

If it's true I hope the media rip him to fucking peices.

Kallstrom to score the winner in his debut at Stoke

This is probably the worst thing Wenger has ever done as Arsenal manager. He sites signing a midfielder as necessary for covering the injuries we have but knows BEFORE signing him that he is out for several weeks??

Where is the logic? It should be discussed at board level that the manager is taking on the wages of a player who he knows cannot play for several weeks, as well as spending money and time with the medical dept. treating him? Crazy crazy decision.
Incidentally, the Spartak supporters said he has a back problem......Arsenal should have known that anyway, before he even arrived!! People with back problems do not get over them usually, they improve for a while, then it comes back as bad as ever.

Stunningly bad decision.

Perhaps if we hadn't been fucking about for the already crocked top top player, we might have managed to complete a deal for one of the last minute desperate strikers we made loan moves for... unbelievable.

[1989]

Wenger needs sacking for this.

Exactly.

Me, a nobody who hasn't worked a day in football, can take 10 mins to look this guy up on my phone & see from his basic appearance/playing time stats, as well as the opinions of various media outlets & supporters, that he is a crock.

Yet, Wenger seemingly happily takes him on knowing full well that he can't play for a month at the very very least. Heads would roll for such negligence at any company other than Arsenal.

Welcome kim.

I've heard more about him on fucking championship manager than in real life. But all the best to him, hopefully he helps us win the fa cup!

The FA cup isn't coming

??

Oh no, the guy that said "ozil isn't coming" and thinks "man united are going to finish above us" although we should go FIFTEEN points clear of them tomorrow also thinks we're not going to win the FA cup.

I'm actually delighted you don't think we can win the FA cup.

Manure got Dithering David in his first year.
But we have had Arrogant Arsene for 16 years, 16 years of missing out on good players coz he won't pay the price,
now is Draxler going to be snapped up by another club?

But to buy someone who is injured, who was supposed to replace our existing injured players? It takes the piss.

Do any of you remember spitting image?
Is Arsene's brain missing like Ronald Reagan's?

[Peeman]

The wages wasted on this fella and the likes of - u know who they are no need to list them all, would have put a big dent in the £7.5 million extra that c.unty chops didn't want to spend on "The Drac"

6 weeks according to Sky Sports News, so we won't be seeing him any time soon. And that of course is only if there are no mysterious setbacks during his recovery .....

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. This is beyond parody!

I took a very resigned view to this window and knew we wouldn't sign the striker we needed.

But signing an over-the-hill permacrock from the 3rd best team in a dross league who hasn't played 90 minutes for over 3 months and is injured for over a month to cover for a 3-match ban and short-term injuries?

Wenger is a *word censored*, end of.

And yet the vast majority will still defend the *word censored* to the hilt

[storrmin571]

6 weeks! 6 cocking weeks! Why did we sign Diaby mark 2? It's fucinng criminal negligence!

[Ryanswannell]

When I'm at work later, I'm going to find a peice of 3 years out of date, broken stock in the warehouse. and put it on the shelf in full view of my manager. Hopefully he'll give me £3million at the end of the year.
