it is 50-50 between us and city last season single player out : silva or kompny or yaya or Aguero .. city lost points and almost collapsed by end of season UTD had passed injury crises one after another and look to the table we are still in top... City can't
So what are you saying then? That we should only sign average players ? I thought that was what you had been moaning about ?
4 years ago would anyone predict top players going to City? FFS, IF YOU DON"T BID YOU WON'T GET THE PLAYER. EVERY SINGLE F******* TIME BIDDING FOR TOP TALENT IS MENTIONED THE IDEA IS SHOT DOWN. If you don't bid YOU WON'T GET HIM. ****ing QPR got Julio Ceasar.
Arsenal can't even keep hold of their own world class players, so if world class players at Arsenal want to leave, what makes any of you think world class players at other successful clubs would want to come to Arsenal? lol, world class players look to progress their careers, not regress it. Moving from Dortmund to Arsenal is a step down.
We have had some great players over the last 7 years. It aint the players , its the coach. The common denominator is the sh!te tactics employed. Never changing to meet specific threats. Never substituting until its too late. Happy to sit and watch while we lose and just hope that we suddenly start playing better . The old boy has lost the knowledge how to change a game. Hes just a spectator like the rest of us. Poor old sod.
So what? You complain about signing average players, then say that we should bid for top talent. Gazidis said we should have money in January and we can bid for Goetze. One would think you would be happy at the thought of bidding for top talent.
Fact is, because of our current **** position, brought about by Wenger and the board, signing world class players is not going to happen if another top club is after the player. Why would someone join Arsenal instead of United? Dude, get out of the past, we're no longer an elite team, we're sitting in 10th, so get it out of your head that Arsenal hold the same appeal as a United, because we don't.
Because the coach is the one on the pitch playing the match. just as much the players fault as the coach if not more.
Why would a top quality player from Dortmund, move to a team like Arsenal? Why leave a championship winning team, for a team that sits in 10th, and only fights for ending 4th? Wake up and smell the coffee, we're no longer an elite club, or an attractive club to join for world class players. And you can blame Wenger and the board for that.
We're in the CL knockout stages, Favorites for the CoC Cup, Consistently finished Top 4 in the Prem, In the FA Cup. 10th ATM, but 15 games is not a season. So you are saying that trying to bid for top caliber is wrong now?
I think united will walk it to be honest . With the frontline scoring power they have , it dont matter if they ship 3 goals , THEY , can just score 4 . It aint rocket science.
I'm not in the past and I didn't say we had the same appeal as Utd. Stop making **** up What I can't understand with you is that you moan that we've signed average players and say we should have signed better players, now we're suggesting we should try and sign a top class player and you're saying we he wouldn't come and we can only sign average players. You make no sense.
Gotze can play for any top club in Europe, so why come to Arsenal? He can join other real elite clubs, that fight for trophies, that win trophies, so why come to a club that wins **** all and is proud of winning **** all? As Wenger said, 4th is good, and is a trophy. If a world class player can join team A, that wins trophies, why join team B, that only fights for 4th spot? Not to mention the fact that team A can pay much more as well. As I even said, WE CAN'T KEEP HOLD OF OUR OWN WORLD CLASS PLAYERS, so what makes you think world class players from other big clubs would want to join us? Gotze is playing for a big club, a successful club, so why take a step down and move to Arsenal?
But they are playing to HIS system . The times Swansea got past us on the left wing today was frightening. We are lucky not to lose by more.
I think Walcott and Sagna could be on the way out in January and tbh, I dont blame them. Thay would be a new low for us losing 4 key players in 2 consecutive transfer windows.
I'm suggesting you be realistic, Gotze is not realistic, because he's a world class player playing for a BIG CLUB that's winning things. You are living in the past, because you arrogantly think Gotze would leave a successful team like Dortmund for Arsenal, based on what? You arrogantly think we're better or a better prospect than Dortmund BECAUSE WE'RE ARSENAL, yeah, think that to yourself. We will have to find top world class players at playing for teams that are below Arsenals stature, like Malaga, whom Cazorla was playing for.
