    You really do have trouble reading people's posts, don't you?
    Were Nasri and Arshavin Arsenal youth players?

    You posted: Shame they abandoned you to win titles, eh?

    To which I replied accordingly - pointing out the deficiency in your post by the sheer fact that you have won **** all for a very long period of time !

    That went right over your head, didn't it?
    I was making a joke about how your "youth players" didn't show you any loyalty, despite coming through your academy.
    You appear to have done your usual and gone into a bizarre anti-Spurs rant about a comment that you've misunderstood.

    To address one of your points though, your claim that Arsenal were restricted financially is either plain wrong or grossly misleading.
    You outspent virtually every club in the country during your supposed restriction. Your wage bill was consistently higher than ours and Everton combined.
    How is finishing above a bunch of clubs that you've totally outspent by miles an achievement, let alone one to crow about?

    clearly you don't get the bit about us being at least in contention !
    Are you now saying that we weren't hampered by the cost of building a new stadium which meant we had to sell our best players ? because that clearly was the case and during that time Spurs did not grasp their opportunity of getting in to top 4 and CL or challenge for a title, as you weren't having to pay off the cost of stadium build so what was your excuse - poor choice of management, management changes, or poor choice of transfer targets and overpaying for them.
    if you read my post history I am not a anti Spurs (as I admire the fact that they want to play football the right way) I am anti people that post ****e when their own clubs are worse than us. It's like Tranmere fans taking the piss out of Liverpool fans coz they haven't won the league for 26 years ffs

    You seem to be missing out on the fact that you still vastly outspent us and virtually everyone else, for some reason.
    The clubs that you didn't outspend did better than you and won the league, barring maybe Liverpool and that's debatable.

    The stadium paid for itself. You weren't restricted when compared to your finances at Highbury.
    Can you spend more now? Clearly. Does that mean that you were doing well in your previous financial position? Not particularly.
    You did the bare minimum. You spent top 4 amounts of money and came in the top 4.

    Extra matchday revenue from the Emirates over Highbury and the redevelopment of Highbury I would imagine without researching it?

  12. France striker Olivier Giroud, 28, claims it is obvious Arsenal need "several good attackers" and says it would have been "good" if the club had signed his compatriot Karim Benzema, 27, from Real Madrid.

    No ****, Sherlock!

  14. Even a camel would baulk at letting PIXIE near its arse!

    That's why PIXIE spends so much time alone, in the dark, naked, under his mum's stairs (according to a fellow Gooner).

    The BBC are going with, "Berahino unhappy with WBA chairman", as a headline.
    That's up there with Charlie Adam's a dirty ****bag.
