The Summer 2014 TRANSFER THREAD

[donaldo]

In the pass we signed players such as Terry Mancini,Pat Howard,Brian Talbot to be competitive.And atleast they gave 110% on the pitch.

Give me Mesut Özil or Alexis Sánchez over them any day.

No good at Chelsea Liverpool City and Everton when they are raping us

Let's sign Kevin Nolan and Jonathan Walters then - they'd give 110% and we'd finish in midtable.

Dont be fucking stupid.What good are Sanchez and Ozil going to be away from home v the big teams without defensive cover in midfield.Even the worst Utd team in 25 years outplayed us up there last season when every other team beat them.If you cant match the big teams in the engine room the midfield we will get fucked again.Sanchez or not

[OneBardGooner]

My point is so many resources spent developing the academy plays [not to mention the transfer duds Cygan,Vivas,Stepanovs et al] how can miss Luiz S when he was developing at Gronigen? Eventually Ajax got him for 7.5m.The 30000 players dossier missed him?

Wenger can't see into the future; as great at spotting talent as he is, it's impossible to suss out all the future world class players: some show promise and never develop, while other fly under the radar and burst onto the scene out of nowhere.

Like I said, Wenger didn't sign Suarez - but then neither did the other 10,000+ managers in the world.

That would be tantamount to me saying why didn't Alex Ferguson sign Thierry Henry?

He tried to...Yup! Rednosecunt tried to sign TH14 - And thierry henry said


Fuck off you rednose ubercunt - I want to play for THE Arsenal - Not some northern shyte club whose majority of fans live in the south of the country and in Asia. and is run by an ego-maniac alcoholic whose ability to speak legible english is non-existent.


FACT.

[OneBardGooner]

Am I the only person that feels sorry for Jenkinson?

No, I know what you mean. From what I have seen in interviews and in the various pravda stuff - he seems like a nice lad (genuine) not a big ego like some of them....but also being a Gooner and the chance to play for your team - must be amazing, so whilst he has played occasionally - I'm sure he is the kind that extra 1% when the shyte hits the fan on a cold wet wednesday night against the stoke inbredscum...

Regardless of where he ends up playing he will still earn more money that I ever will - and get to play professional football - ie: Live The Dream.

Good luck to him.

[spendsum4uckingmoney]

Young talented footballer who earns more in a week than most do in a year. Nope. Not really.

[OneBardGooner]

So, even though you are not able to 'live the dram' and play for The Arsenal whilst earning buckets of spondoolies...you cannot sympathise for another person who is within touching distance of that 'dream', only to see it slip away?

Yeah because I suggested we didn't need defensive cover in midfield.

Clueless.

[1989]

Personally, I feel we're finally moving in the right direction. God knows it's taken long enough! Since 2008 we've all been crying out for 1st team strengthening, and it's finally happening. Yes we need some cohones in midfield, but to mention Pat Howard and Terry Mancini FFS! Ozil and Sanchez will be top drawer for us this season. I still have issues with Wenger, and think he should have gone two years ago, but I'm prepared to look at this season with some optimism. This place can get seriously depressing at times!

It's like some enjoy being miserable fuckers on here. We'd sign Messi tomorrow and I guarantee they'd have something to moan about it.

Life is pain.

Too small for the PL I reckon. Couldn't do it on a rainy Tuesday night in Stoke etc etc.

[p206ab]

269 pages and already 3 signings. How's that possible? Wasn't normally 200 for 1?

Who's next?

[1989]

An English lad from Petersfield is next.

Oh I didn't realise we had signed a proper striker (not a winger) a dm and a cb. You know, strengthening the main priorities of the team.

[nut flush gooner]

A new CB, an actual striker not a f**king pseudo-fancy-look at me I can pass the ball mofo, A proper f**king striker and a new manag

Wish we'd not won that f**king piece of sh*t now.

The glow from it is gone, we are back to what we will be for the next 3 f**king years

Yeah sure we shouldn't have won the FA cup, then so called fans could just carry on with their stupid agenda's.

Most gooners (who where there) wouldn't give your opinions the time of day. Why don't you turn up on match day and spout this drivel, it's easy to talk bollocks on a forum.

Superfan alert. If you have to resort to insulting me from the off,then you argument dies a tragic early death.

My dear boy/girl I go to the games and only gave up going to home games when I got priced out of it and when I could afford it decided the pub was a good place to watch as paying extortionate amounts for certain players was beyond the pale.

I still go away to games very regularly even with 3 children under 7,so it's not a picnic. I travel the length and breadth of this country to watch the Arsenal because I live in hope as a true supporter...we can't all be superfans.

I have the long term interest of this club at heart and it is not being served properly by a manager who runs it like his own personal fiefdom and refuses to move with the times.
The club have cleverly surrounded themselves especially at home games with people who now accept,rather than wanting what we are capable of. We won the Fa cup it was brilliant but how in God's name has it helped us progress.

We still dither in the market like we are a poor club and lose signings or pull out after putting all our eggs in one basket.

By the way,suddenly signing expensive players is not a sign of the manager moving with the times,it's what we have been able to do for the last 2-3yrs.

Yes everyone at the game loved the result and it was the result and particularly how Rambo redeemed our season but I'm sure all those there at 2-0 down started to wonder why we STILL can't do basic defending as a team. Want to take a guess at whose fault that is.

Guess what,he's still here and will be for 3yrs minimum. We will not win the league under his management. Still happy. Yes, I expect you are because we can now spend big.

Ooh lock up your goalies lower half teams, big spending, midget ridden, striker-light Arsenal are coming. The rest of you in the league,breathe easy. You can watch them huff and puff for 60mins and counterattack... Bang you've scored. Or you can try the other well worn trick again watch them huff and puff for 60mins, win a quick corner....bang you've got a goal. Then just stick 10 behind the ball and Bob's your uncle...if you're really lucky they'll be so gung Ho,counterattack... Bang 2-0.

Still having fun are we?

Fuck me, superfan what the fuck is up your back side?

I want us to win trophies, not fuck up again so the "wenger agenda" can be solved. I support the club not the manager, even if I don't necessarily agree with the direction in the club going with its policies. Nothing can beat going to a cup final and bagging the trophy and I ain't gonna let some random twat on a footy forum tell me otherwise.

So if you honestly think I give a flying fuck what you've got to say about "superfans" you are sadly mistaken. You're an embarrassment to the club and so is anyone who thinks like this.

Wenger says Alexis is a striker. You wanna argue with him?

Interesting what the definition of a proper striker is? To me, it's someone who scores goals! Sanchez will get 20-25 this season. He's quick, skilful, shoots(!), and he's strong on the ball. We all know Giroud has his shortcomings, but he'll weigh in with 15-20, along with Walcott, Ramsey, Ozil, Cazorla, and The Ox all weighing in, then I don't see the need for another striker as a priority.
