    If he plays today, he will have played more games for Chelsea than us, and what a game to achieve it in.

    He is one player I wish we could have kept, best lb in the world, and it would have ment Cheryl would have been around alot more <ok>

    Cashley is one player I'm glad went - he has proved himslef to be an arrogant, selfish, self centered money grabbing ****, anyone with any of those traits is worthless in a team environment.
    He may well be a talented footballer but he never respected the club, the manager or the fans.
    If someone was to go through him breaking his leg on Sat I would shed not one tear....

    Behave, of course you have twats in your team in your team. Your manager for starters, then there's Frimpong, Wilshere, Gervinho, Walcott and Song definitely looks like a twat.

    Besides the players listed show how flawed your arguments are. Giggs is a nice guy on the pitch, a revelation about his personal life doesn't change that, unless the sex was that good it made him a better player. How is Drogba only occasionally a ****? What did Clichy do? Adebayor hasn't done anything that he hasn't later apologised for, unlike your fans who still sing that he should've died in Angola. King getting pissed and abusing a bouncer is hardly likely to help his game either. Assou-Ekotto, what an Earth has he done? I can see why you hate VDV he is pretty ruthless, especially against your lot.

    If anything you could have done with an honest hard worker like Parker, aswell as a proper captain, because lets face it Van Persie isn't a good captain.

    Strong ? Possibly
    Unfair ? Maybe
    Childish ? Probably

    But I get fired up when players disrespect the club, and for a bloke who stood in the Clock End as a kid, quite possibly next to me, he should have had and displayed greater loyalty.

    Samir - You make a good point and perhaps we aren't very good at dealing with 'egos'.
    Sadly as a grey haired old git who has seen most things more than once I am a bit stuck in my ways/beliefs and I'd prefer to see players show the same level of passion and loyalty for the club that I have over 30 years, deep in the pit of my mind I am aware that it's a changing world full of selfish bastards, I just like to ignore it.
    I was brought up with Rice, Nelson, Young and O'Leary, then there was Dixon, Winterburn, Adams, Keown/Bould - who next to spend (virtually) their entire playing careers at one club ? No-one is my guess.....

    <laugh> <laugh> Walcott? One of the nicest players there is is a twat? I'm sorry but apart from Wilshere (who has perhaps acted like a knob in the past) the only think you have found our players guilty of is being black.

    Giggs is a nice guy? A good footballer, but his off field problems make him an absolute ******.

    Can we fill in the blank ?
    Some would say w****r and some would say legend

    Bit hostile, no?

    I never talked about Redknapp but as you well know he has never been in charge of a club's finances.

    Gervinho took just one game to get sent off for slapping a player. Twat.

    Walcott, dives, apologises and then continues diving. Twat.

    Evdidently I'm not familiar with Clichy's 2009 interviews, so could you enlighten me as I asked? It certainly doesn't mean that I know **** all about Arsenal so do try and stay civil.

    What has Assou-Ekotto said that's wrong? He's more honest than most and his charity work and affiliation with the local community is to be commended.

    King beat someone up? Do you have any evidence for that?

    Adebayor has been a twat in the past but forcing a move is nothing new, Benayoun has done it on several occasions, for example. Celebrating infront of your fans after suffering horrible abuse all game, is hardly bad either and he's even apologised for it.

    I can't believe you've overlooked having a dig at Gallas too, that's twice now!

    You seem to be blinkered to the fact that you have twats in your team. The biggest problem seems to be that say that Arsenal have chosen to let go the likes of Adebayor, Nasri, etc because they're badly behaved. However not only did they not really have a choice about selling them but also Nasri was totally unpunished for his twattish behaviour.

    <applause> (apart from the Drogba bit, how many footballers do you know that have given 12m to charity?)

    No problem. I don't stray from my board often but when I do, I always go onto Arsenal's first because whilst I might not find myself agreeing much, I think you've got good users. My more recent posts have been a bit negative but it's not the intention when I come onto this board <ok>

    As I said, HR's not in charge of the finances at clubs and never should be as he's not qualified. All managers have a say in transfers and will try to persuade their chairman to loosen the purse strings but no moreso than that. Portsmouth was badly run to say the least but the profits they made on selling the likes of Johnson, Diarra, Muntari etc show that Harry bought well and brought success to the club.

    All I said about Song is that he looks like a twat, it was a light hearted dig at his hairstyles and yes I know Sandro's just as bad if not worse :D But since you guys have picked up on it, his sly stamp on Barton was far worse provacation than the sending off. Frimpong gets involved on Twitter with anti-Spurs rubbish, just as Wilshere does. Just as you don't like VDV for what he comes out with about Arsenal. Walcott got a Bolton player sent off after going flying under minimal contact already this season and there were a few towards the end of last season too. Gervinho we won't agree on, I guess.

    As I say, I was unaware of Clichy's comments.

    I asked for evidence of King beating someone up and that's not it. I'm not condoning his behaviour but you're totally over exaggerating what happened and it's clear that he was totally off his face. Wilshere has been up to more bad behaviour when out on the lash in his one season in Arsenal's first team than King has his whole career. King was also never taken to found guilty, since you mentioned the same of Song.

    With regards to Adebayor, I'd toally forgotten about that stamp. I'll never agree with you about his celebration, he had every right to give a bit back after the abuse he'd received in that match. No one's worth what they earn in football but like Benny said in an interview yesterday, if a player is offered more money elsewhere they will ask for a rise to match it. Every single player in football is guilty of not respecting contracts and demanding better deals.

    Do you have a link for that? I wasn't reffering to his life off the pitch though but on it he is one of the worst cheats in the league.

    Cashley shafted us good and proper, but he is still one of the best LB's in the world.
    Deep down I still think he is an Arsenal fan though, he is one of ours from our Acadamy.
    He might wear blue, but his heart is red.
