As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

There are never world class players " available" you have to go the extra mile to get them.
Exactly. We have ppl here saying Schneiderlin "wasn't available" FFS. Can't pinch top players from S'oton now apparently (we get mugged off ie Walcott and Chambers. Ox was a good one though).
These world class players are never "available" unless Real/Barca decide they're booting someone out

I think you'll find she was saying "Why don't you fuck off some place!"

The ex wife said something similar about 18 months ago.

For Arsenal:
Walcott: 290 games 72 goals - Scored in 24.8% of games.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain: 111 games 11 goals - Scored in 9.90% of games.
Of course there is more to both their games than just scoring, and wages have also to be considered, but as far as I am concerned -
Walcott was good value at £9M (final fee as we settled early in cash).
Alex-Oxlade Chamberlain is 'Jury still out" at £12M rising to £15M.

Would never thought Walcott had scored that amount of goals

If he gets a new pay rise and 4 year deal he might even break the 100 figure
Quick, quick, get the statue ready.

Can I just say (for the umpteenth time) that lavezzi (sp ?) of psg is utter, utter, utter dogshite
I keep reading people on here saying how much they hope the rumours of him joining us are true, but I have watched him on a few occasions (playing for club and country) and I have never felt that he was anything above average (and on most occasions he wasn't even that good
)
