    I love the way he calls them "his Arsenal flops". I was taught that it's important to take ownership of something so, for once, well done to the Frenchman.

    Where do they get the idea that Walcott could be the first to be shown the door from?
    Leaving aside the likelyhood that van Persie will walk at the end of the season, the likes of Rosicky is out of contract and Squillaci is utter ****e.
    Surely they have to be favourites for the chop?

    I wonder if Walnut could fulfil his potential with a different coach?

    When they say walnut what they mean is RVp..but they havent got it in them to admit that..bless...

    when they say booted out of the club..they mean RVP will not sign an extension..therefore will be shipped out..

    But they cant say RVP as this would cause uproar...whether me and you like it or not but Walnut is one of their high profile players in Gooner eyes...amusingly so..i admit...so they mention him..so that the goonlets can get used to the idea that someone they expect alot of will be leaving the club.

  6. It's all collapsing at AFC, just as I predicted it would.

    One day, PESKIE will thank me for pointing it out to him so early on, and will apologise to me for ever doubting me <laugh>

    He's demanding a four year, £85k per week deal at the exact time his form is being eclipsed by Oxlade-Chamberlain.

    I'd also argue that, six years after joining Arsenal, he should have stopped being Fast Kid With Potential by now and actually developed into something other than Fast Adult With Potential. Ramsey and Oxlade-Chamberlain have shown far more development in less time than Walcott, frankly.

    Walcott is not a good enough player to work in a team that is not as creative as it once was. Walcott has missed Fabregas and to a lesser extent Wilshere badly. Walcott needs passes that are played through defence to run on to. With Fabregas,Wilshere and Nasri in the team last season he managed to get 13 goals from the wide role. We moved the ball a lot quicker last season and it gave Walcott the chance to catch defences cold with his runs. Now, the ball is moved a lot slower and the defence are back to set up and defend and make Walcott try and beat someone. He can't. AOC has shown in a short period of time why he will be so much better then Walcott. That kid can makes runs beyond a defence and takes on full backs to cross for anyone that bothers to get in the box. Walcott at his best can only do one of those.

    Oxo-Cube's barely played though Croydon, whereas Ramsey's probably played too much since his return from injury.
    I'd also suggest that Walcott's suffered from the same problem that Arshavin has, in that neither's being played to their strengths in their best position.
    Arshavin should be playing in a similar role to van der Vaart, though he doesn't put in nearly as much work and his attitude has been appalling.
    Walcott should be playing on the shoulder of the last man and using his pace to get one-on-one with opposing keepers as often as possible.

    Wenger has his system and he's stuck with it no matter what, even when it doesn't suit the players that he has available.

    To me Oxo, or whatever is nickname is, looks a fine prospect. Also, he's a genuine left sided player - something England have needed for ages now. Walnut - ok on his day, if he was half as good as he seems to think he is, he'd be Lionel Messi. Legend in his own mind only, I'm afraid.
    I genuinely can't figure out what's going in at Arsenal. Winger has never struck me as an idiot, yet the insufficiencies in his side are glaringly obvious, to all but him, it seems. Why nothing is done, only he, and possibly the club's hierarchy know.

  12. Walnut has only been placed on the wing because he is a fast runner. The fact that he can't cross a ball for toffee doesn't seem to have bothered Whinger.

    Walnut's best role, in my opinion, would be just behind the main striker (since he's far too slightly-built to be an out-and-out striker). Why Whinger never plays him there is known only to him!

    That doesn't say he said it though, does it. It's the reporter who's saying they are Wenger's.
