So many people saying wenger should be sacked on paying to loan a player that is injured and how deluded he is for doing it.

Well it turns out that we're not paying him untill he's fit. At least thats cleared up.

Sharing the cost of the treatment will be peanuts between two clubs.

We haven't payed for him. We don't have to until he's fit, well that's what I've gathered.

Fine, great. but can't you see how absolutely pointless a signing it was ?? He's injured, we knew about it. but still signed him anyway - by the time he is potentially fit - Flamini, Ramsey, Jack should all be back so he adds absolutely nothing. If you are going to make a signing it should be adding something to improve the team

With all the money we have and the supposed facade of being a top club competing with the best...this is all we could muster after a whole month in the transfer window? Utter shambles, if this was the spuds we would be having a right laugh now but it isn't, this is The Arsenal! I cannot believe there are some on here trying to paper over this disgrace...so we may be sharing the cost of this guys treatment...well that's ok then! :banghead:

In the grand scheme of things his wages for a few months are peanuts too (although shelling out the full whack would have made it worse).

The real irritation is just the bizarre transfer policy that we continue to implement.

He may well be average. But i dont think we've got much to loose to be honest. We're paying him from when he's fit (so lets say march) till the end of the season, so just over 2 months! And he should be back for our hard run, thats our real hard run! Spuds A, Chel A city H...and if hes not back then we dont pay him, simples. If he scores a winner in any game or proves you all wrong and turns out to do a good job for us then it'll turn out to be an ok bit of business i reckon.

Ah yes the old Arsenal medical team's patent-pending Peanut TherapyTM.

Thirteen ounces of Sun-Pat lathered over the injured area before said area is amputated, delivered by Dubious Unnamed Taxi Driver Courier and his mysterious black dildo to the Moscow State Circus to be hoovered clean by the trunk of a rabid caged elephant, returned to sender and stuck back on using Chamakh's leftover special hair "glue." Injury miraculously cured, player rehabilitated just in time for a "little setback." Rinse and repeat.

By that time we should have flamini, Ramsey and Jack back with rosicky, arteta etc around, he will not get near the team then. Absolute waste of time and effort spent in him when we should have been going all out to strengthen for a title push.

Its not about having nothing to lose ffs. we are currently top, with a huge run of difficult games to come in close succession, we needed to strengthen, to push on, to take the opportunity while we have a slight advantage but instead we meekly hand over the initiative to City.

You keep saying that we can't compete with City / Chelsea - yet right now, we are, we could push them all the way and this may be the best opportunity for us in years to win it, as with all their money they will surely strengthen their already superior squads in the summer as they have money to throw away.

It was now or never...........and guess what Wenker chose ?
