Barcelona are scum. Scummy scummertown scum. I hope Fabregas gives them all some English disease that he is immune to but they're not.
35 million for a player they want but don't really need. i think 35 million to you guys is a good deal.
Cesc has just given up with Wenger's promises of jam tomorrow. Why should he stick around a manager who cannot or will not improve the squad?
Dutch Master, stop being so negative already. That or remove that name because Bergkamp would never hold that attitude, which is why he was a great player.
Why are they scummy ? We stole him from them and sold him back for £35m. The only thieves here are US !
Christ I want the team to improve..... I just get SOOOOOOO frustrated at the daft carryings on at the Emirates. Wenger has now gone over the tippng point and must go if he does not fix the problems - or at least buy players to address the problems. How will the purchases so far do anything to improve our league results? Sit on hands while Rome burns.
Well what if we don't sign anyone else? Will you just carry on getting frustrated with the players that we have? That'll just make them worse.
Where have I said anything against the players? Of course I support those who cross the white line. However we have had some who are a waste of space and are gradually leaving the club - Denilson, Eboue, Bendtner, etc I NEVER agreed with booing our players or Wenger.
It's not about booing them so much as the collective groan when a player makes a mistake. Our away fans are brilliant because they're the ones who are dedicated enough to travel and it shows. We should strive to be more like them. The only match I've been to where I haven't lost my voice as a result of singing was v Tottenham last season. I was invited to a box and when I started to sing and dance I was told not to. I had Spuds above, below, left, right and in the box with me. Fair play.
good for you - but we all need to take the rose coloured spectacles off - and see our manager for what he is now - not was years ago.
You also need to see that we need to be solid throughout the season. If we bemoan Wenger it's telling Ramsey, Wilshere, RVP, Sagna, Song, Vermaelen, Walcott, Koscielny, Gibbs, Arshavin and so forth that we think they should be replaced and that they're not good enough. They'll carry that into games with them. And therein lies the problem Victoria Concordia Crescit.
I think there is no doubt he benefitted greatly from his time under Arsene. We didn't steal him. At 16 or whatever he was then, he wasn't getting any action at Barca and now he's a world class player in demand. I think Barca definitely beat us down on price but be that as it may, we need to spend that money wisely so we can maintain our Top 4 place.

And therein lies the problem ------------------------------------------- It's up to the players to show the fans they are good enough and to earn the money they are paid. You are trying to blame the fans for Wenger having inferior players. The club can't keep pocketing the money from player sales without reinvesting in some quality players. The players now know that they will have to leave like Cesc if they are to win anything.
I'm only blaming the fans for the way they get on the cases of said players. I know, I've seen it in person. If we want to win something, then we have to do what we can. And all we can do is support them.
rannar you are a great supporter through thick and thin. Where we differ is that I can see failings and expect them to be addressed within years of spotting the problems.
I can recognise the failings and I want them fixed. But I also recognise that the only thing I myself can do to actively benefit the club is to blindly support it once the season has started.
I've just been on the BBC sport website and they have a pic on there of Cesc kissing the Barca badge, even as a Liverpool fan this riles me. Maybe do it after scoring your first goal or after a few months at least but not while the ink is still wet on the contract, it's disrespectful. I hope you guys do spend the money wisely and I hope you get a player (or two... or even 3 knowing how shrewd Wenger is) who is ready to commit to you and give you the prime of his career - just do all that after next week
