SUMMER TRANSFERS - Your thoughts on who did and did not sign

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.

Boys and Girls lets look at the Cesc situation stage by stage and then put yourselves in the same position in your job

Work for a firm thats at a standstill v A firm always looking to improve

At best a second rate firm in europe v A firm always in the top tier of europe

A Firm without an award in 8 years v A firm thats just won the top honour in their field

Old Boss with old habits v New Boss with new ideas

Second rate workmates v Promising yound and talented workmates

Lower Wages v Higher Wages

Been there ,done it v New Challenges

ARSENAL v MANURE

Over to you Boys and Girls for your honest views

Lads, seriously - does anyone REALLY believe Cesc would turn down Manure out of "love" for The Arsenal? Really? :o

Even as king of the realists, I will say that I believe 100% that cesc would sign for us ahead of manure - my only opt out on that belief is if the king of c**ts turns around and says that he doesnt want to re-sign our best player in the last 6 years :evil: :cussing:

I don't think Cesc would ever have left us to join Manure directly, but via Barca I think he might consider it. Having said that, he clearly wants to stay at his hometown club which he's supported for his whole life and I think he will.

More questions than comments -

What contract length has Theo got - very short i hope as he only has a go when he's renegotiating. Is the Napoli rumour a possibility?

What is Kaka's situation? Maybe his star could be resurrected.

Cesc ain't going anywhere by the way UNLESS and here's a theory....... Arsenal agrees to let Cesc go to United subject to Rooney coming to us. All we need is Song, Clichy and Nasri to go to United and them win a title and the Wenger haters will have their proof. It is interesting that all of these players left and won a title in their first season with another club (throw in Cesc and RVP as well).

I still think we need a murderous DM......someone a little bit loopy.....

I've heard Moyes is in for a move on Franny Jeffers because they like talking scouse, we should get him first to discombobulate United. I know for a fact Franny has never been the same player since i spilled beer on him as he walked out to play (accidentally). He's still 5'9" so probably a bit tall for Arsenal these days.

Welcome to the wonderful land of OZ!!!

No, a couple of points in the first post were genuine and the second one was just amusing myself after is saw Franny on Soccer AM recently and i remembered spilling a beer on him whilst getting him to sign the Arsenal Southampton FA Cup final programme as he ran out for his debut for the Newcastle Jets.

If i'd posted 10 hours ago the answer however would have been yes. So are you a committed Perth Glory fan now???

Cheers mate.
Perth glory? Sounds a bit like a netball team name.
I reckon I will go to a few Eagles games after last weekends win mate.

Shame about old Franny. Fox in the box, that never was unfortunately.

I am a believer of Cesc returning to us, one day.

Am reading that Serie A clubs are chasing Mannone sig today.

The A-League is actually quite good. You should check it out. We've got Heskey and Michael Bridges over here n Newcastle at the moment - both getting on but the rest of our squad are about 7 years old. Heskey scored heaps last year in a rubbish side.

Yeah i think Cesc may return but maybe a la Thierry Henry. I honestly think Cesc is overrated and just stood out in a mediocre squad.

Mannone is an interesting looking chap - I'll give him that. Italy would be good for him...... :wink:
