Wenger's latest comments really aren't filling me with hope that we'll bring players in.

He's a businessman.

 

[Feorax]

Liverpool are denying Luis his basic human right: freedom.

To be fair, I did see an Arsenal fan on twitter say we're ethically comparable to Jimmy Saville.

 

[Yurt]

Also the Whoscored stats don't agree with you. Where you getting those?

ESPN!

I'm going to guess that Whoscored and ESPN don't have Coppa Italia stats

NOPE

Edit: Okay so Vidal scored on Lazio in Coppa Italia so make that 15 goals.

Guardian are reporting that Arsenal are preparing a new bid for Suarez.

They think they can capitalize on tensions between him and the club.

Just seen that. This bit:

Liverpool have refused to confirm whether Suárez asked to speak to Arsenal in the talks with Rodgers and Ayre since the £40,000,001 offer was received and rejected. However, they remain adamant that the disputed clause in Suárez's contract does not allow him to meet or open negotiations with Arsenal now that a bid of more than £40m has been made.

Is completely contradictory to what the Times is saying, which says that Liverpool are going to refuse him any sort of permission to talk with Arsenal. This could get really messy.

Fantastic.

I should go to bed, been a long week and this can't be healthy...

Cissokho would be decent cover. Would allow us to send Robinson out on loan.

I'm watching Tomorrowland on Youtube and I'm seriously envious of anyone who is there. The crowd is mental.

 

[Mastadon]

Can someone link the the John Cross/Rory Smith drama?

[Naughty God]

new 3rd kit?

The white kit is the best kit we've had in years. Although I suppose loads of other teams getting it this season has taken the shine off how sexy it is.

Much sexier with the red.

He's a beautiful passer, and a beautiful person.

 

[Salvadora]

Wenger why are you doing this to me

"We are ready to do quick deals but all the transfers do not depend only on us," said Wenger as he spoke about the transfer for the first time. "But we are prepared to wait. It looks unlikely before the Emirates Cup (next weekend).

"We still have a strong squad but we are there on the market to try to strengthen our team. With or without additions we can be title challengers next season."

Wenger refused to get into a war of words with Rodgers and said: "He must explain that. I don't know. We are not close to signing Suarez or anybody else so there's no reason why I should talk about it.

/dead.

Bacary Sagna settles in well at centre-back with Thomas Vermaelen out.

Jesus fuck.

 

[jtb]

that Sagna quote really worries me because unlike the rest, it sounds like he actually believes that bullshit.

 

[Fergie]

/dead.
Jesus fuck.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Gattuso was one hell of an intimidating dm when he played.

Christian Poulsen, the Danish Pirlo, was not impressed.

 

[Freewheelin']

Wenger has a strange attachment to some of his shit players :lol

I wonder if he actually thinks they're good enough for the team?

 

[Salvadora]

that Sagna quote really worries me because unlike the rest, it sounds like he actually believes that bullshit.

The last time he came out he said we were nowhere near close to bringing in any players in.

He's been giving it to us straight, jtb.

 

[Feorax]

How can Arsenal not be close to signing anyone?

I mean, really? Surely that's just BS. It's the end of July!

 

[Yurt]

Just woke up but I barely slept thinking about wtf was going through Bacon's head in that pm.

Ugh

What PM?

 

[Mr.Marston]

Same shit different season. Wenger's schtick got tedious years ago.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

What PM?

Bacon's been PMing people with racial slurs and rumours that Illaramendi cost only €73 million.

 

[L1NETT]

Rubbish French league and player bias.

Pascal Cygan, Silvestre, Squillaci, Giroud, Gervinho, Aliadiare, Park, Chamakh.

 

[dc89]

He's so hopeless. If they sent him to the Night's Watch they'd probably make him a builder.

He could look after the Ravens.

Damn! Can't get enough of Fire Emblem.

Dredd is good fun. I enjoyed it.

I'll be downloading that tonight.

Good! It looks decent.

Absolutely devastated to hear 15-year-old Real Madrid youth player Cedenilla has been diagnosed with cancer. I literally have no words...

https://twitter.com/Youngcules/status/360883817390682113

I hope he gets well soon.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

ManUtd Stuff ‏@ManUtdStuff now

United are set to make a third bid in the region of £40m for Barça midfielder Cesc Fabregas. [md]

Well alright then.

 

[jtb]

The last time he came out he said we were nowhere near close to bringing in any players in.

He's been giving it to us straight, jtb.

yeah, we're basically fucked at this point...

it's time to get a DOF or something, it's appalling how terrible Wenger/the board are at conducting transfers.

 

[Freewheelin']

Rubbish French league and player bias.

Pascal Cygan, Silvestre, Squillaci, Giroud, Gervinho, Aliadiare, Park, Chamakh.

Giroud's not rubbish (slow yes. could be a better finisher yes.) but the others...omg :lol

 

[Zabojnik]

Well alright then.

But what about Arsenal's first refusal?

 

[DominoKid]

Well alright then.

*facepalm* still not enough. we'll have to be dragged kicking and screaming into paying market value for stars.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

But what about Arsenal's first refusal?

They can offer £40 million too if our bid is accepted.

 

[jesalr]

Gattuso was one hell of an intimidating dm when he played.

Maybe to modern softies.

 

[Salvadora]

I've been saying for a while now that bringing David Dein back would solve the problems.

Unfortunately I think he's washed his hands of our club.

 

[Mr.Marston]

Paranormal Activity is on ITV1 :lol

 

[Mastadon]

Wenger would have an aneurysm if he made two £40 million bids in the same week.

 

[Freewheelin']

Shit film

 

[Shake Appeal]

Adnan is quite good at this footballing lark.

Still hasn't signed a new contract though.

Only 11 months left on his current deal.

That's only about this much longer than Pogba's was...

 

[Mr Cola]

Well alright then.

Sure why not

I just wish, i really really wish, we knew who the fuck was telling us this was possible, because atm thats the only part of the equation that is important. Its not the manager, its not the board, its either his agent or him.

Welcome to football transfers, where no one knows anything but the agents.

After buying RVP im willing to throw my hat and say literally anything is possible, I didnt follow that transfer last season so I have no idea the similarities but I can only imagine it took some wrangling.

I just, this is mental...

Fixed.

RVP had one year left on his contract and publicly begged to leave. also Arsenal is a joke and the board is incompetent. Barcelona's hand is much stronger in this situation.

[L1NETT]

Bulletstorm from that list.

DS2 ain't as good as the first one, but if you haven't played the first i would give it a shot.

Ditch Bioshock 2 and Hitman A

 

[Broder Salsa]

U wot? Did you not see the chair move? Or the curtain twitch a bit? Scary as fuck, can't handle it.

I thought it was pretty good entertainment, watched it with a few people in darkness and surround sound turned all the way up certainly helped... But yeah, didn't warrant the 200 sequels I understand it got, but wasn't terrible I thought.

Dead Space 2 - Fun
Darksiders - Fun
Bulletstorm - So fucking hilarious
Bioshock 2 - Got bored after 15 mins
