He's turned out alright, but can't say you didn't question the purchase at that price?
I think he knows he probably overpaid for Ozil but was willing to do it because of all the other benefits.
Bare minimum is an RB, ST, DM. We need a GK too. I'd like a versatile winger that can play either flank, but that might be asking for too much.
I like his physicality, always seems to be at the right place, unlike Giroud.
Oh don't get me wrong, my nethers would be moistened by such news. However, the chances of us getting any of those targets are remote, and getting all of them is a fantasy.
I also would like to state, James Milner for 10 million is a waste of 10 million.

Wenger wants a game winner he will sign a player like Cavani/Reus/Falcao and it will shock everyone just like Ozil did.
Benz will when Madrid sign Suarez.

Not this year they wont
Lukaku is who I'd be after if we were going for one of those forwards.
But he really needs to improve on the ball. And obviously the whole Mourinho thing too.
This is a beautiful post.
You are my favorite brother.
Milner would be worth 10. Upgrade over Flamini.

If he manages 3 world cup goals Wenger might be interested. I believe he has about 47 in 57 league games for the past two seasons. He should go to Liverpool though they need a powerful striker who is over 6 feet.
I still think Arsenal need a quick forward. Bony is probably just a slight upgrade on Giroud.
Bony is being touted for £20m. I think its more likely you get Remy and they'll land Bony.
Delusion.
None of those players will leave their clubs in the summer.
last thing Liverpool need is another striker, particularly if the one in question is expensive and overpriced
not prudent to buy players after just one season in the league, in any situation imo
what?

The Mourinho thing kills any chance of that transfer ever happening. Or else I'd love him here.
You sound like a Spurs fan last summer.
Suarez has repeatedly stated he isn't leaving.
Not that FSG or Rodgers would sell him six-months into a new contract.
Anyway, I don't even think Real need him or want him.
They have Suarez and Sturridge, goals is the least of their problems.
Bony is very good. Still not the world class striker arsenal require. If:
City have Aguero, Negredo and Dzeko
United have van Persie, Rooney, Welbeck and Hernandez
Liverpool have Suarez and Sturridge
Chelsea have* Costa, Lukaku and Torres
And Arsenal have Giroud, Sanogo and Bendtner...
There's a huge discrepancy in first choice strikers, never mind back ups.

And we have champions league football which is what he wanted
Bendtner no longer plays for Arsenal Football Club, thank god.

The struggled against team like Chelsea and Palace who know how to defend well and don't give up space easily. A target man is the only way to go against teams that play like that.

Welp, finished Demon Souls...
That False King guy can suck a fuck, by far the hardest boss, christ it takes so long to get just a bit of his health down and is just relentless in attacks as soon as he lands one.
Pretty good game, a lot better than I was expecting after the initial turn off's. Not the second coming that people had said IMO, probably not even in my top 5 RPG's of last gen but good fun anyway. With some crazy bosses/enemies, cool gear, neat ideas, nice levels... will probably pick up Dark Souls. Even though I would like the latest and greatest graphics/engine, seems like everyone prefers the first Dark Souls.
Thanks for all the help Hitcher/Yurt the Silent Chief, appreciated!

I fucked up at the end, I killed the demon beast thing then accidentally hit the girl and kill her instantly. Suddenly I am a demon loving cunt, doesn't even make any sense... why would I kill all the demons to get to a final boss and become a demon myself. Not even rule but be the guys buddy, there is zero temptation. He doesn't even sound like an easy guy to get along with.

Listening to the monday night club on 5 live, one of the panelists whose name I forget is convinced the reason we didnt get Thiago last summer is because of Ryan Giggs. According to him the deal was set and agreed and all that needed to take place was the medical, Moyes did a round table of his coaches and everyone but Giggs wanted him, Giggs said he was not a United player and the deal was pulled.
Probably old news but id never heard this before.

We scored 6 or 7 goals against Palace this season

Wait, was he being serious?
When it was reported as the £34m, I said that seemed excessive but that if the club thought he was worth it, then he was worth it. That he chipped in £4m of the transfer was fantastic. It's hard to take a vice captain away from a club when he has a £40m+ buyout and a long term deal in place.
I was 100% confident in the signing because I had seen how he absolutely bossed Chelsea in the Champions League and I pointed out he had over 70 games in Europe for Donetsk. I was very vocal about being thrilled about all of our signings. They were all very astute purchases.
Especially not for Arsenal.
We scored 3 against Palace away and 3 at home. Our defence let us down in the away game.
Chelsea is the only team we haven't really broken down. Dat bus.
Think so, jtb has said in the past that Gervinho should have been given more of a chance.

The 4 goals he scored in the same game against Liverpool still burns so hot.
At least he isn't in this league anymore.
He will not leave unless Real buy another forward and the president loves him
in his final season at Lille, Gervinho was a better player than Hazard. seriously. very highly rated.
everyone knew his flaws (inconsistent touch, horrible finisher) and Wenger decided to play him in exactly the role where those flaws would be exposed the worst.
the first season was a write off because he got injured and then missing the key penalty in the ACON final just killed him. and then rather than ease Gervinho back into the team and give him the opportunity to rebuild his confidence and use him as the direct wide option this side so desperately needs, he sticks him up front—killing both his confidence and Giroud's and squandering quite a few early season points (I still haven't forgotten that draw at the Etihad, where we played City off the park and Gervinho could have easily scored a hat-trick). Wenger was just too stubborn to adapt his system to his players. Anyone with two eyes and half a brain could see that Gervinho was not the second of Thierry Henry. and that's okay! it doesn't mean he couldn't be a very effective player playing within his limitations, especially with Theo missing basically the entire season.

I still think if and I don't see it happening and we sell Suarez, we should go all in for higuian, maybe rafa would do us a deal with reina going the other way too
