He comes back from Holiday in time for the emicunts cup

He will then tell us he couldnt find anyone good enough.

Also that Vela (cant get in wba first team) and Lansbury (not in first 11 for Norwich) are coming back and will be like new signings

Some people will never be happy with who we sign. Just ebcause he's never been at a 'big club' doesn't make him a bad player. Some players need that chance to step up. Plus I'm pretty sure he's been looked at by quite a few, especially in January.

You don't always need the best players to make a difference in a side. Samba is technically nto as good as our CB's, but thats why he's needed. A Complete contrast. Away at teams like Stoke etc we need players like Samba.

He can also play up front!

He does one thing our centre halfs never do these days and that's block a shot on goal, our centre halfs bottle out doing this and we need this type of Row-Z centre half.... Wenger, wake up and sign him you tight bastard...

He can also play up front lol fuck it you've changed my mind.....sign him up at double the usual wages cos he is the answer not only to our defensive deficiencies but also our strikers one too ;)

Samba all the way, he is a big fuck off defender we currently need.
TV is a great player, but sometimes gets sucked into the attack, meaning SAMBA would be great a great compliment to TV's style.
Also Samba is a great leader and seems to naturally command respect of which non of out players currently do.

Realistic dream back 4

TV5 Samba Cahill Sagna :D

with KOS coming in for teams with a lesser aeriel ie Champions league

At 6'4 and 14 st 5 lbs (91kg = 200 lbs) I'd automatically respect him too :shock:

How is it flawed? I'm just asking the question, if a player is not good enough because one of the top clubs are not trying to get in first then how do you explain those two?

I'm only seeing one flawed logic here.

If a player fits then he fits, I doubt Chelsea or us made a move for Hernandez, is he shit?

It is flawed for the following reasons -

Bergkamp was one of the most coveted young players in europe when he left what was then a top european side (ajax) to join another top european club (inter). After one poor season inter decided that he wasnt the man for them but we, through David Dein, stole a march on the rest of his admirers and his signing caused major shockwaves at that time. Henry too had been a top player for a big european club (monaco) when he left to join the turin giants juve but he too failed to inspire after one season and again we got in and nabbed him through wenger's history with him before any other club could react. Signing those two players who had 2 major european superclubs on each of their cv's is not the same as comparing the signing of samba cos his cv doesnt read as a who is who of world football but is more like a "who ?"

I would also like to add that somebody made a comment stating that no other big club needs a centre back hence the lack of competition for his signiture and I am sorry but that is absolutely dogshite imo. The scousers have a 55 year old carragher, skertal (sp :oops: ) and the injury prone tatooed gobshite agger so do you not think that they could do with a centre back ? Samba is a player that no other medium sized club is even chasing and yet we are to believe that signing the guy would be a coup ? :? We have a glaring need at centre back and of that there is no doubt but the ability to head a ball should not be the only factor to consider when signing a centre back
No one showed interest in Van Der Sar while he was at Fulham apart from Utd. What a shit keeper eh? Only managed to finally fill the void left by Schmeichel. :roll:

Again mate by suggesting van der sar you are picking out a player that has a very impressive cv having played for ajax (think he won a champs lge medal there) and by playing for juve and of course having played international football for many years inc world cups and european championships so it isnt as if he had played for nobody of note in his career or was unproven at the highest level which of course samba is
Alright mate let me give you other examples...

K. Toure
Van Nistelrooy
Antonio Valencia
Teddy Sheringham
Wrighty
Hernandez
Hleb
Vidic
Damien Duff
Ivanovic

Going back further...

Dixon
Bould
Ince
Winterburn
Cantona

And that's just in England...


I understand your desire to have the best at the Arsenal but there is always the odd gem in a lesser club waiting for an opportunity to move to a top club and prove themselves.

This guy is better than any of our defenders bar none.

Hence why we will not sign him.

"We're also after an experienced defender, maybe one who is already used to life in the Premier League. That has been our weakness'' - Wenger

It looks like we could be singing Samba or Cahill......or Upson

Should be a matter of "and" not "or"... we need at least two quality additions to the back four.
