Fucking Rubbish Utterly Awful Dickhead?

Been here 10 years and is sitting on around 80 odd goals for the club. So a return of around 8 goals a year, and his a forward on a 140k a week.
Ive never really bought into the idea Wenger has no resources. Our wage bill is very high, and we are much closer to City, Chelsea and United, than we are to Liverpool.

Think back to how Podolski had been frozen out of the club - yet was on 100k a week. So Wenger does have the resources, and its a scandal for him to portray himself as a battle against the odds. So you look at Walcott on 140k a week, and you wonder, is Wenger allocating resources appropriately?

Re: WALCOTT - which position is best etc?
I agree. Unfortunately, he can't be played as a lone striker either, given that he's still built like a little boy. He came along just as 4-4-2 was dying out.Nos89 wrote:Walcott has been wasted and pissed about on the wing. He was and should always have been played through the middle, as a striker. His is a career that has been wasted by a manager who played him out of position for most of his career.
I don't think he cares though, given his obscene wages

It's no secret we serially overpay bang average players. Yet we still plead poverty. The money wastage is scandalous.Wilson wrote:Ive never really bought into the idea Wenger has no resources. Our wage bill is very high, and we are much closer to City, Chelsea and United, than we are to Liverpool.

I am also disgusted with how Podolski was treated (and Arshavin). Yet we persist with the likes of the overpaid Giroud and Walcott.
Re: WALCOTT - which position is best etc?
Iwobi and even Gnabry ae better footballers. BUt when you have handed Feo 140k a week, you pretty much have to play him.
He plays all year and struggles to hit the 10 goal mark even though he is a forward player earning more than Robben and Ribery.

Re: WALCOTT - which position is best etc?
Every time someone mentions that Feo "earns" £140k PER WEEK a cute cuddly puppy dies somewhere. It's how Mother Nature balances things. And Mother Nature can be brutal.
Everytime I hear that Feo "earns" £140K PER WEEK (PER WEEK!!) I just sit there and think "what the absolute fuck".
If he was even average you might try and justify it, but he is absolute shite. He offers the team NOTHING except for stupid blind runs into the wrong area and the odd bit of sprinting. So the equivilent of Stevie Wonder running the 400 metres then.

How do you work out that our best midfielder is replaceable?
If RVP and Walcott leave we will be left with only one world class player - Alex Song![]()
Song was world class.
Sore Member: the best WUM we ever had.



Nice work mate - at last some cheer at the end of another miserable TO1AW season. Can anyone honestly say that they don't miss this stuff ?
Your mission should you choose to accept it is to find "automatic choice" Denilson, "excellent centre back" Djourou, the post advocating the return of Almunia and the irrelevant 8-2 following the big night in Udine

Overall I believe it could be tough, but that if I show the right spirit, desire & mental strength I can qualify.

Re: WALCOTT - which position is best etc?
Before this season I always defended Walcott. I felt there was more to come and he would prove the doubters wrong by coming good when we needed him too.
How utterly deranged my thoughts were for all these years. He took a new contract that paid him massive amounts and failed on every level when we really needed him.

I gave up on him a couple of years ago, like you, I stupidly thought he would come good.supergeorgegraham wrote:Before this season I always defended Walcott. I felt there was more to come and he would prove the doubters wrong by coming good when we needed him too.

Same goes for Ox as well but he will get his bumper pay deal very soon. Shame because we should sell them bothsupergeorgegraham wrote:Before this season I always defended Walcott. I felt there was more to come and he would prove the doubters wrong by coming good when we needed him too.

Re: WALCOTT - which position is best etc?
I still have hope for Ox, unfortunately, I think he should join another club. He won't because he probably gets paid more here. They prefer the money to playing regular football and progressing these days.supergeorgegraham wrote:Same goes for Ox as well but he will get his bumper pay deal very soon.

Re: WALCOTT - which position is best etc?
good point yesterday on Soccer Saturday. How Wenger didn't hesitate to end the Arsenal careers of Pires, Bergkamp, Vieira and Henry.
But rewards players like Walcott, OX, Gibbs and Wilshire. Merse was right Wenger doesn't like players in the dressing room who challenge him or his ideas. They all sit there in silence

Re: WALCOTT - which position is best etc?
How long do we wait for him to show some regular quality. He has only ever scored one away goal for us. It's just not good enough for a club like ours. I understand all players have rough patches but you accept that when they go through good times but I can't think of a decent run of form that made me sit up and think Ox is quality.casgooner wrote:I still have hope for Ox, unfortunately, I think he should join another club.

Re: WALCOTT - which position is best etc?
He showed quality in his early games. He has pace and commitment. I honestly think Wenger stunts their progression, a lot of young players who have shown promise have just fallen by the way side.supergeorgegraham wrote:How long do we wait for him to show some regular quality.
