Bendtner

I thought he did pretty well at the end of the season when there was a fair bit of pressure on him. Plus he tries unlike some of the others. Certainly deserves his place in the squad. Maybe not as a first choice but I'm happy he's in there.

Bendtner is a much much better player than he gets credit for, he was instrumental in our 6-1 thrashing of Everton last season, he is still only 22 years of Age, he's got 4 years on Chamakh and i really do think he could potentially be a great great player for Arsenal football club.

He might not be everyone's cup of tea, but he's confident, strong, BRILLIANT in the air and offers alot to our side!

And he is 100% world class and is Arsenal quality yes????
He is a bit part player who should be at a mid level prem team at best. :banghead:

At least he tries? He didnt fucking try at the lane last season, walking around in his green boots, chewing gum and looking like hes billy big bollox, he is shit and isnt anywhere near good enough for us, saying that seeing how shit we are at the moment perhaps thats how low our standards have dropped

I think Prince Charles could trap a ball better than him.Its embaressing to see a guy on 50k a week whose first touch ends up with the ball 5 yards away from him :evil:

Who on earth said he is 100% world class? I personally do think he is Arsenal quality yes, you seem to forget he is only young, and is now reaching the age where he needs to begin to show his ability and potential on a regular basis. Alan Shearer scored just 23 goals in 118 appearances from the age of 18 to 22, he then went on to score a quite amazing 112 goals from the next 138 appearances. Bendtner to this date has 31 goals from 123 first team appearances.

You dont have to believe me, or Arsene Wenger, or anyone else, just give him the chance he deserves. He plays for Arsenal football club

I like big Nik, just don't play him out wide, Wenger it doesn't work - he scored some vital late goals for us last season

:barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf: go Nik

His first touch is an absolute disgrace, it's not just once or twice in a match, it's every time the ball goes to him. FFS why don't they work on this in trainning, just think of what he could do if only he could trap the ball, not to much to ask of a footballer is it.......... :evil: :banghead:
