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.
My first question after everything what the fuck did you think when you sold RVP to manure , how did you think we would then finish above them ?
Not being funny but if I bumped into him this is it
Mine would be:
1. What the fuck were you thinking picking Lehmann for the CL final?
2. What the fuck were you thinking subbing Pires off and leaving the circle dribbler Hleb on in same final?
3. What the fuck were you thinking not bringing Bergkamp on late to grab the draw then the win with two bits of magic in that final you gormless cùnt?
4. Did that French rapper swallow?
Who else would you have played, though? Almunia or Poom? They were the only other two senior goalkeepers at the club. Alumina was always calamitous, and Poom hadn’t made a single appearance for us at that point.
Agree regarding Pires and Bergkamp, though.
Apart from the first and last questions the other two are the same I've been asking since 2006. Almunia played the majority of the final so Lehman question really is redundant.
How the fuck is it redundant? Lehmann got himself stupidly sent off ffs. Put us down to ten men. Changed our entire game plan. Caused Pires to be subbed off. Stopped Bergkamp getting on. And it was all so predictable. The idiot had already cost us the CL in 2004, and tried his best to fuck the Invincibles record at the swamp that same year.
I wonder about you sometimes, mate....
Mad Lens at it again...he lost us that fuckin final Arsenal icon Jens Lehmann 'damages his neighbour's garage with a CHAINSAW in a frenzy of rage due to long-standing row over spoiled view of Lake Starnberg' - with German police now investigating former goalkeeper over incident...from todays daiy mail
I see a story doing the rounds suggesting that we are allowing bellend to walk away on a free - cue more applause for legohead at getting rid of trash, even though no club in the history of football has paid off/allowed assests to walk away without the club getting a fee
Marseille & Arsenal have reached an agreement in principle for the season-long loan of Nuno Tavares. The player will travel to Marseille to undergo a medical tomorrow. [@AndiOnrubia] #afc

They're probably of the mind that they will save on any wages, because let's be fair he is of no use to us in any shape or form; unless we want some trees planted & hugged. Good Riddance I say.
In another world I'd almost applaud the 'ruthlessness' they are showing getting rid of players that don't fit their process except there is one glaring, obvious inconsistency that utterly negates what they are planning, I would have kept every single player and played any of them in centre mid including that idiot GK we bought ahead of fucking cunty bollocks

I read the opposite actually, can't remember where but Betis said they won't pay a fee and were told where to go. Evidently they are close to selling someone to Forest so they should have money soon.
He's only got a year left so money saved on wages will only be about 5m, better to hold out for 10-12m and mug someone off!!

Ah, you share my doubts about Ramsdale too, eh Muzz?

Firstly, who else was going to play in goal ahead of him? Secondly, the challenge wasn't worthy of a red card imo, Uefa wanted Barcelona to win that trophy as their first was offside. Despite all that Wenger should've managed the subs better because even with 10 men we were the better team.

Not sure why Arteta would be blamed for that to be honest.
He’s a young manager, not a contract/transfer negotiator. I’d say contracts/sales is more on Edu and Garlic?
Also, which fool decided paying bellerin £100k+ was a good idea? No wonder we can’t get a transfer fee. European clubs are skint (and not daft to go bankrupt paying Hector).
Stab in the dark, but I’d guess you’ll complain if we give him away and complain if we keep him so win win for you really mate

In fairness, and possibly exclusively in the case of the Cherokee hair tampon wearer, id be glad to see him out the door without a fee. Quite literally a waste of space in taking up a squad number and the fact no-one wants to spend a tenner to land him would suggest all clubs are wide to wide they'd be signing.
Hes on 110 grand a week with a Yr left on his contract,cancel his contract and let him go,we get his wages off the books and he gets to go somewhere where he'll get game time.

Absolutely bang on the money. Just get rid of the donkey Linda McCartney-Zoolander. No one is going to offer us a fee and meet the ludicrous salary that we stupidly gave him. It's cut our losses time.
