    The initial summer rumors were linking us with some of the top players (or at least potentially) in the world.

    Since then we seem to now be linked with players like Downing, Larsson, Defoe, etc...

    I know rumors are only rumors but it's a genuine concern as to how well we can attract players nowadays?

    Before Wenger took charge we were a mid table side recovering to a decent 5th placed finish, nothing too flash but the signing of Bergkamp was still a coup despite his stuttering time in Italy.

    Wenger came in and turned unknowns into superstars (Veira, Anelka) or resurrected the carrers of others (Overmars, Kanu).

    Recently though our stock has taken a dip and as we can't/won't compete with the richer clubs we are in danger of failing to land the players we need to get back on top.

    In truth Wenger's bigger transfers haven't really worked, Arshavin has mixed the sublime with the pathetic, Reyes quickly lost all that potential and Wiltord although a very solid player wasn't the striker we were looking for.

    The truth is Wenger's recent signings have been more often failures then success.

    This is a pivotal season for our long term future and the signings we make will signal a true intent of which direction we are heading in.

    Wenger seems good at signing cheap players, but not very good at signing expensive ones.

    I don't understand the peculiar desperation for us to sign/attract household names. I'll be happier if Wenger unearths a couple of gems from South America at a fraction of the cost. I do agree that there's question marks over many of his more recent signings. But hopesully with Stan in charge, and a large chunk of our stadium debt paid off, Wenger will relax, stop trying to outdo himself in uncovering future stars, and spends a few bucks on less risky targets.

    Herein lies the problem of not606. If there isn't supporters from other teams popping in to divert your attention, you'll eventually turn on and eat your own. And jayram was looking tasty tonight but I'm sure there's no hard feelings.

    Does Gerrard batter his wife? I'd say Rooney has to slap some sense into Colleen from time to time.

    I would reveal some of the sick fantasies going through my head at the moment, but I'd probably get locked up for doing so.

    I was only kidding with the ex-wife remark, but who doesn't like a bit of dogging if the weather's good?

    Oh, I'd bury my cock in her tits, but all in all I don't like wags. If there's one I'd make the exception for, it's probably Christine Bleakley.

    Wags are usually good-looking but they're generally vapid, attention and status seeking hos. Look at Crouch's g/f, Clancy. Just look at those tits. No wait, I mean look at how she insists they'll stay together despite it meaning she may contract some horiffic std that he got in Spain. She's waiting to get the ring on the finger so she's at least guaranteed the divorce pay-off. Either way it boosts her profile and chances of making it on tv. Total ****. Now try and tell me that Dolly the Sheep would be so calculating.
