THEO! WASTE OF MONEY????????

[northbankbren]

heres one more opinion for you, youre a c**t

northbankbren thinks radford will gutted to hear you think so highly of him

[brazilianGOONER]

brazilianGOONER, try learning logic and context

you really haven't understood me. it's sounding like i think we were not a decent team until wenger. i know graham and chapman were as succesful as wenger, or almost as.

my only point is that we are living one of the most successful periods in the history of our club, and looking quite healthy for the future. and still, we're impatient.

that's all. nothing more.

It just doesn't sound right averaging trophies

which, in the end, are what people are complaining about, isn't it?

[Radford149]

I think Theo will come good, he is reasonability intelligent and has the speed, but he does certainly need a run of games....

(':one2smooth:')

the delusion according to Radford continues

radford, many people have given thought out, valid and credible arguments in favour of theo, all you seem to do is disregard them and stick to your 'youre deluded' line. heres one more opinion for you, youre a c**t

Radford feels your pain and lack of...........

Im not singling you out BG but i seem to disagree with most things you write at the moment.... No one here says we have a right to win things every season but when you see problem areas (and we are supposedly untrained eyes) that with a couple of purchases here and there will improve the team and Wenger cant or wont see them then you have to start questioning him...... Theo and his fitness might be one of these problems but i think he is worth sticking with him to see what happens. Almunia is definately one of these probs IMO.

Another thing that gets most peoples backs up in here is people through a lack of knowledge or blindly defending Wenger making out that Arsenal were a nothing club before him.

As i said im not picking on you BG and find your optimism good at times just need to enlighten you

well, a friend of mine says that the minute you stop questioning the man in charge, it becomes a dictatorship, so i have no problems with questioning wenger, as i have no problems with questioning almunia who in my opinion is not good enough for the arsenal.

i do think, however, that we tend to have a veeery short memory and become impatient a little too soon, at times. but that's just me thinking

and i actually do need some enlightenment at times, since every piece of arsenal history before '96 i only saw through videotapes and documentaries, therefore never lived the moments and frustrations and the likes of it... i do hate when that becomes the sort of "you know shit, you were not there at anfield in '89" and stuff like that.
i'm not to blame if you are all so fucking old!!!

Fair point BG apart from the old bit

well, that part may be sad, but it's still fair!!

[maddog]

I would like to see him play more central running off at angles behind the striker(s), his crossing is sometimes erratic. He will develop I'm sure!

does anyone at arsenal actually know how to cross a ball? that's something that strikes me for some time now. i know we do not play that kind of football, the 'cross the ball to the tall striker', but still, our fullbacks are amazingly terrible at crossing (eboué the little exception)...

maybe it's because i'm brazilian, i don't know. when i was at gremio i was a right back, and our coach prioritised crossing training over anything else for us...

[CYGooner]

I think Theo would be best off central as he doesnt seem to have the football brain to be involved in the build up to the goal yet. Its a bold statement but if he didnt have speed we'd have another Diaby on our hands.....

[Lost_Gooner]

I feel theo has a place at arsenal and if he can stay off the injury list long enough he will prove his worth.

just a quickie from Radford.....you are deluded

Just a quickie from Lost_Gooner....You are a prat

[Martin Hayes]

A very late reply to Augie - Sorry for my over-reaction - and a very well argued post...

I'm still up for backing Theo mind; look at the boy Song now!

[Bring Back Pires]

I thought he was shocking tonight. No vision, couldn't beat anyone, and looked his usual lightweight, unintelligent self.

[donaldo]

Same old Theo tonight trying to run through opponents.The Belgians were tired yet he couldnt get passed them.This season he really is at the last chance saloon.

[Magic Hat]

At 20? Is that the new cut off date?

Dreadful tonight though, I will agree with that
