Lukas Podolski

If I was Podolski, id go to the newspaper, and do an interview, criticising Wenger, and showing him up to be the prick he is, it couldn't be classed as disrespectful, as Wenger has treated Podolski like shit.

Podolski loves the club too,I have him on that Instagram thing,he seems to just love being around the ground and area.Wenger treats him like a c*nt,its not like he's even a bad player,give him a run in the side and I think he'll come up trumps,I have no clue what he has done to piss Wenger off.
Doesn't anyone remember reports were widely circulated that he had questioned Wenger's methods and wasn't happy playing in a position he wasn't comfortable in. Ever since then he has been sidelined and moved to the fringes because as we all know the dictator doesn't like players that kick up too much of a fuss.

If Podolski has any shred of integrity (which I'm sure he does) he will hand in a transfer request in the summer because he surely must know by now he is not wanted by Wenger.

Have to say that I had forgotten all about that and it does make sense when you think about it - dunno why podolski felt entitled to question le cock really cos it isn't as if podolski has worked over 30 years in football :roll: :banghead:

Lukas is a strong character, with opinions, and has a lively sense of humour. Wenger is a strong character with opinions and no sense of humour at all. I bet LP questioned Wenger and the latter took it predictably badly, but I'd like to know the truth. I don't think Pod is the greatest player ever or has a great work rate, but he doesn't deserve the Mourinho-Mata treatment. Plus he scores goals regularly, which is a novelty in this Arsenal team. I really like Poldi. He brings a positive vibe to the dressing room too, where too many of them are quiet, non challenging types.

I must have missed this. Well, makes perfect sense then why the guy doesn't play. I really like Poldi and his style and would like to see him getting a good run in the team. It's a disgrace that we don't use him more often.

EDIT: Oh yeah, 100th post from me and every single post just full of bollocks and nonsense :barscarf: :barscarf:

I don't blame Wenger for not replacing Giroud with Podolski... which normal man would say no to this:

It would be nice if whole Grove sing this when he comes on (70th,90th minute?)

Just that part from 0.06 to 0.17 .. Hallelujah!..... Finally! :lol: :lol:
okay, quite appropriate time :barscarf: to embarrass meself with a "song for pod"-suggestion :shock: :

sing along to the tune of "Kölsche Jung", watch here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DcNPqsWPbD8

exchange the bridge's 'lyrics' (oh, oh, oh, oh yeah oh!) for
"
score. for. us. - Podolski!
score. for. us. - Podolski!
score. for. us,
score for the Arsenal!
"


and the refrain's lyrics with "
'cos Pod is just an Arsenal boy
and his skill an power give us so much joy
signed from Cologne for just 10 Mill
his finishing is clinical
give us a goal -
score for the Arsenal!

bridge

Bit of a mixed bsg I thought but expected with his lack of gametime this year. Undoubtedly offers us more directness and bore dividends with his goal - great run and well taken.

I am going to be sick when pod leaves us and bangs in Hatfulls for Milan or PSG.

Or maybe even Dortmund ?

I bet he does well at the WC too.

He seems always happy with the boys, his treatment is an utter disgrace.

Plus we don't have the depth for Wenger to treat any class player like that.
