I personally rate him in the £12-20m range. He's not consistent enough.

Can I have what you're smoking?

 

[Jabo]

No problem, we have Ze Eduardo now!

Genoa fans call him Ze Twitter since he tweets a lot lol

Time to get that big Ze Twitter avatar ready.

It's been a looooooong ass time since we've seen a Milan striker header

Spoiler

my memory sucks

ALL HAIL PAZZO! ALL HAIL PAZZO! ALL HAIL PAZZO!

 

[Awesome Animals]

Signing of the season? On the 22nd of August?

Fuck me

Agreed. People, silly season is supposed to be over!

 

[PrematureQuiche]

On bench at least:
Turnbull, Bertrand, Essien, Romeu, Oscar, Meireles, Sturridge

Hope he at least gets 30 minutes! He looked really good against Wigan.

 

[Salvadora]

Yeah Oscar looked like he had quite the pace.

 

[elsk]

Is Marin injured already?

 

[José Mourinho]

Tyrone. I now agree that Belfast people are very annoying.

They/we are.

 

[qindarka]

Chelsea should have rested some players. Now they will be too tired for NEwcastle and have no chance there.

Then again, putting out a weaker side here against Reading would guarantee dropped points. I doubt they will manage to win as it is with their best XI.

 

[Zabojnik]

Cech; Ivanovic, Cole, Cahill, Terry (c); Mikel, Hazard, Ramires, Lampard, Mata; Torres.

Federici; Gunter, Harte, Gorkss, Pearce; Leigertwood, Guthrie, Karacan, McAnuff, McCleary; Pogrebnyak.

How come Chelsea are playing tonight? A bit late/early in the week, isn't it?

 

[PrematureQuiche]

Is Marin injured already?

Pulled a hamstring :/ I hope he is good in the PL

How come Chelsea are playing tonight? A bit late/early in the week, isn't it?

We have the UEFA Super Cup next week. We need to play an extra game to catch up.

 

[Vivalaraza]

Is Marin injured already?

Yep

I'm actually serious btw

This match had to be rescheduled because we have to play a glorified friendly against Atletico.

 

[Lightning]

Arsenal play a different game.

Nasri - £24m, RVP - £24m, Cesc - Not enough, Clichy - £7m.

Hmm, which one should we sell?

You can have a 29yr old injury prone striker. Of the players you mentioned only the Cesc transfer really hurts arsenal as the others are easily replaceable.

We got very good money for RVP and Nasri imo.

Also, I think Cesc left on good terms. He was respectful right to the last minute, still continues to be loyal and supportive, and no arsenal fan should be against him. One is allowed to further their own career he was not married to arsenal.

Then why were you so bitter against RVP?

I was just messing, but Arsenal would be a much better team if they still had those players. Would be ridiculous to deny that.

A tophy is a trophy is a trophy, guys. Feels so good starting the season having just won one.

Welcome Hector.

Thanks #basedglazers

That's what, 6 players?

By the way, I called this on Sunday.

 

[LTWheels]

He's way overrated. Valencia is the superior winger.

 

[WJD]

Ronaldinho >Messi

Ronaldinho was the more entertaining player to watch but Messi is the better player.

 

[PrematureQuiche]

Yeah! I hope we win the Super Cup! Would be cool.

Btw guys we haven't signed him, but some guy called Dave on Twitter thinks we have.

Pretty much confirmed then.

 

[Mumei]

This Messi guy must be terrible. It seems like everyone is better than him.

 

[Soi-Fong]

Herrera - Clev midfield anyone? Sounds good. Congrats ManU GAF!

I don't know much about him, but we just need someone to bully a ill bit in the middle to allow Clev to get forward. Only one we have is Carrick and he isn't exactly imposing or fast.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19344989

I would have much preferred to have him than Podolski or Giroud. Dudu was great for us when he played up front. Never really had a chance when Judas Mark II took his place after he got injured

 

[D_prOdigy]

He's 5ft 10 and 22 years old...

But I also didn't register him either at the Olympics, so maybe he is deceptively good.

 

[Jabo]

Yep, he sure is.

 

[dc89]

The thread in Off Topic about that girl and some guys has all got crazy.

I tried reading the posts which sum it up but I'm still struggling to understand it!

Sunhi's GIF was epic though.

The leg injury was tragic really.

Agreed, I think Eduardo still takes a shit on Arsenal's current strikers.

 

[Wes]

That's how a true ITK does it. Looks precise when you look back on it, but at the time could mean a lot of different things.

[Facism]

What's going on with Sahin? I heard we had it sorted Monday but we still haven't announced it.

1 year loan @ Le Arse witha 14 million purchase option at the end.

 

[Yurt]

@Zabojnik I played one of the 3D PS2 games btw, I don't know if it had anything to do with part 4+? But it was pretty insane.

Jebus. I know they are and I wouldn't do that in an actually serious discussion, but we tell each other worse in here while obviously joking. It's a community thread where we are mostly all pretty friendly with each other and surely there's no need to moderate that unless a user actually takes offense. Whenever people has stepped over the line in here (like making a joke about other users weight or saying Jewentus instead of Juventus) it has been reported and properly taken care of.

Actually it was "Oh man, Milan got jewed"

and then he backpedaled (brilliantly) to "HEY I meant Juved!"

Please, Please be true.

 

[Joel Was Right]

I think he still has it to be honest. Remember his comeback goal? It was incomprehensible. Why didn't Wenger bring him in again? He's tested in the league and was brilliant for us

Oh lord I was wondering why it was 10+ pages o___o

Either way, i'm an arsenal fan for at least this next season ;P

Arsenal selling Van Persie & Song was 'a big mistake', says Eduardo

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19344989

I'd take Eduardo back, rather have him as backup than Chamakh or Park.

 

[Lightning]

Then why were you so bitter against RVP?

Because RVP put that disrespectful message on his website in an attempt to force our hand and weaken us in negotiations. RVP, in my opinion, acted like a complete and utter JT.

I was just messing, but Arsenal would be a much better team if they still had those players. Would be ridiculous to deny that.

Of course. But it's not something new. We've sold Overmars, Petit etc.... as well though so its not like we just started the policy recently. But remember one thing, aside from Cesc and Nasri and now Song who arsenal obviously wanted to get rid off because negotiations happened far too quickly most of those players were sold after their best years.

Vieira & Fab in midfield?
Henry cutting in and up against Jenkinson??

Sold XI, by a mile!

 

[Kyoufu]

lol just saw Cole/Essien own goal against Reading during the Mourinho days.

 

[Wes]

Are you on twitter? You should be.

Nope. Maybe I'll reconsider but it appears to be nothing but a cesspool currently.

 

[Broder Salsa]

So when I saw WoodenLung post it, I thought that I should mention it for anyone in this topic who also was not aware. I was not suggesting that it is always wrong, only that it wasn't always right. And while I can see how Wooden might have thought that I was implying he didn't know, he was really only a convenient person to quote; I wasn't intending to say anything about him in particular.

So: I was saying exactly what I said and no more. There's no need to read any threatening subtext into it.

Does that answer your question?

Yeah I get it, looked like kind of a warning at first though and that is what i responded to.

Actually it was "Oh man, Milan got jewed"

and then he backpedaled (brilliantly) to "HEY I meant Juved!"

It was brilliant either way!

Cech; Ivanovic, Cole, Cahill, Terry (c); Mikel, Hazard, Ramires, Lampard, Mata; Torres.

Federici; Gunter, Harte, Gorkss, Pearce; Leigertwood, Guthrie, Karacan, McAnuff, McCleary; Pogrebnyak.

Meh at Ramires on the right, but... At least Hazard!
