What the fuck is a fit Diaby? He's body is made of straw.Owen Hargreaves had the same injury record at United as Diaby.Is he still at United? Thats the difference between Wenger and Fergie.Sums the management of Wenger up in the last 7 years
I believe Hargreaves spent three years effectively injured for the main part at united playing only a handful, if that, number of games during that last few years before he went. So yes, he has left united but it was not a quick decision in anyway.
He left them at the end of his four year contract, that was the earliest that he could go.
Diaby was signed the same time as Theo. Abou has played in 172 games, Theo 245 games, that's nearly league two seasons more. Why is he still at the club? Or is wenger expecting him to do an RVP. Spend seven years in the treatment room, have one outstanding season then sell him for £25m?
Diaby was appalling against the chav$. We saw the other side to him, the lazy slow delaying on the ball caught in possession side. It’s a side I had almost forgotten about tbh – it’s been that long since we’ve seen the fucker play! And it led to a goal against us too.
Yeah he has technical ability and at times sublime skills, but this is negated by the fact that he never plays more than 3 or 4 games in a row before the usual 3 to 6 month injury lay-off. Added to this is the fact he isn’t even consistent for those 3 or 4 games!
I’ve defended him on here in the last few weeks but after being reminded of his inconsistency I withdraw any defence of him. Let’s be honest, since the day he signed he has contributed next to nothing to The Arsenal. Sad but true.
Get rid. Give his wages to a player that can play a whole season.
Arseblogger bleeting on again about how sad it is that Dan Smith ruined Diaby's career with that "tackle" up at Sunderland.
While I agree with the sentiment and obviously don't want to see any player suffer an injury, why no mention of the TWO bumper contract extensions given to Diaby by Wenger since the incident? If Dan Smith destroyed Diaby's footbaaling career in 2006 why in the name of christ is he still on the books at Arsenal in 2013?
Does my head in when people go on about that tackle being the root of all peanut head's problems.
Seeing the great man tomorrow night is the only thing I'm looking forward to. Some promising signs against the Chavs. Once he's fully fit we'll have a £40m player on our books once more.....
