I told everyone who would listen that Barry Bendtner would come good.

I thought Legohead was class when he made his first couple appearances for us. Thought "this guy and Cecsc are going to dominate the PL for years!" Turned out Legohead couldn't dominate a gimp that has been sedated, tied down and, indeed, just died.![]()



I also thought Denilson was quality when he first arrived... sadly, I was very very wrong

I also thought Gervinho was shite... again, very wrong - he's now our top scorer, first choice striker and the long term replacement for RvP

He was a good prospect when he arrived, had a very good game in the 2007 Carling Cup Final.g88ner wrote: I also thought Denilson was quality when he first arrived... sadly, I was very very wrong![]()

done well for himself I say


Re: The "I was wrong" thread
In fairness when we beat Newcastle at home 3-0 in the Beer Cup he really looked the part. I dared to dream that we had the next world class Brazilian midfielder.QuartzGooner wrote:He was a good prospect when he arrived, had a very good game in the 2007 Carling Cup Final.g88ner wrote: I also thought Denilson was quality when he first arrived... sadly, I was very very wrong![]()

Still he was always Red's favourite midfielder !

I expected Lupoli would have gone on to be a first team regular for us.

I thought moving to the new stadium would enable us to compete with the best in the world. I was wrong.
Re: The "I was wrong" thread
After signing Giroud, Podolski and Cazorla then saying we're weak in defence, I expected Wenger to sign some new players...

Re: The "I was wrong" thread
I thought Denilson was going to be a 'Top, Top Player for us, instead of the retard *word censored* - slower than a fat ref - twat he turned out to be.
When the spanish waiter first took over from the crazy kraut I thought he would be our new goalie for the next 8 - 10 seasons and become another seaman
I thought Cesc would stay at least another 2 - 3 seasons
I honestly believed rvjudas *word censored* would never sign for the mancscum
I thought McDowell starting a Summer Window Transfer Thread would be of use - Jeeezusss was I WRONG!

I truly believed Manninger would go on to replace Seaman in the long term and become a Legend.
Errm, whoops.
