21 goals in 28 games.

Arsenal fans at work.

Of course a club as enormous as Arsenal need a striker that scores in more than 75% of their matches. In fact, anything less (or even on par) would be underwhelming.

Because this is Arsenal.

woodlice of Europe

Same level as Giroud? Says the man who thought in the summer all we would get is Remy and Cesar. We came out with outstanding Ozil!

You signed one player.

Congratulations.

You spent £45 million.

Congratulations.

Would rather pick out players like Django and Coutinho and have the likes of yourselves fawning over them than drop a bundle of cash on a world class talent that anyone but the beigest of slugs would have in an instant.

And Giroud isn't as good as Struddige. You must deal with that. Such is your task, thunder-plum.

 

[Labadal]

Suarez was also a January signing.

why can't i stop watching this guy

DJANGO STRUDDIGE

UNCHAINED

i felt it more fitting for him!

Fucking Chelsea.

 

[bud]

giroud is a better footballer than sturridge. i've seen him do things this season that sturridge has yet to dream of.

if he ends up scoring 15-20 goals in the league, he'll have done fantastically well.

[Labadal]

Giroud may be less selfish, but I don't know if I'd call him a better footballer overall. They're not the same type of striker.

 

[Lightning]

21 goals in 28 games. I'm not being biased when I say that Sturridge is basically a 'complete striker'. Unless you think he's selfish.

Complete striker? Oh please. His goal return has been impressive. If he keeps it up Liverpool may get 6th spot.

 

[Salvadora]

Struddige doesn't fill my beauty quota.

 

[bud]

whatevs

look at his face

then look at giroud's

seriously

why are we even having this discussion

have you not seen giroud's cock

 

[wedward]

:lol "Sturridge was luck"


I personally feel whoever you'll bring in will be on the same level as Giroud.[/QUOTE]

Nobody thought Sturridge would do this well.

If we get a player on the same level as Giroud in January I will be very happy with that.

 

[Labadal]

Struddige doesn't fill my beauty quota.

 

[bud]

he just took a piss

i can hear everything

i love him

i really do

As in, he can drop deep and hold up the ball, or beat the offside trap and outpace the defence. Skilful, good dribbler, very good finisher. He has the lot. I'm not saying he's Messi, but he's extremely versatile and fits into our style of play - whether that's counter-attacks where he sees little of the ball, or possession/'tiki-taka' play - brilliantly.

I'm fairly confident that Arsenal won't buy a £20m striker in January, and won't win the league. Liverpool won't either, but that's beside the point.

This sounds like a quote from an Arsenal supporter previous to this summer.

"WE DON'T BUY SUPERSTARS. WE MAKE THEM"

He made sure we could hear. He doesn't want us to miss a moment.

"listen to the force behind it" lol.

The sounds coming out of him, his heavy breathing... He is either going to pass out soon or throw up.

 

[L1NETT]

Both Giroud and Sturridge have faults in their game. Both are good at what they do. Apples and pears.

Complete striker do me a favour.

Arsenal still need wheels up front. And somebody who doesn't have the touch of a elephant on ice (ahem Walcott).

Would love for them to spend on £30m on Benteke. Complete and utter waste of hilariously expensive season tickets.

WTF is Clarence Seedorf doing playing in Brazil?

 

[bud]

He made sure we could hear. He doesn't want us to miss a moment.

"listen to the force behind it" lol.

he has a nice house.

 

[Arnie]

Nobody thought Sturridge would do this well.

Our scouts did.

Brendan did.

That's why he dropped the money on him that he did when nobody else saw fit to do so. Coutinho, too. The whole world was pre-occupied by Sneijder, but the people at our club who make the footballing decisions were smarter than that.

 

[FootballFan]

he has a nice house.

I wonder what he does for a living. Somebody asked him earlier and he said "I eat pizza and drink beer" or some shit like that.

He would get fired if his boss saw this shit lol.

 

[bud]

nnnoooooo he's offline

i can still hear him breathing

i can't breathe

 

[Broder Salsa]

Got a little butter on my controller... uhmmm nice

*licks off*

 

[bud]

you can hear him breathing and swallowing

goddammit this is so adorable

There's a Barry interview on the Guardian; why did Benitez want to sell Alonso again?

Zelda: ALBW. This game. The fucking game!

He took a gamble. It worked. He has also taken other gambles that didn't work. He isn't an oracle, as much as you want to believe he is.

There's a Barry interview on the Guardian; why did Benitez want to sell Alonso again?

He had been fairly average the prior two seasons, before responding with a final amazing season. I think in Rafa's book he tried to claim he actually wanted to play:

Mascherano-Xabi-Barry
---Keane---Gerrard
----------Torres

...though I'd be dubious abut that.

Aye you're right. He flips a coin and says "heads, it's Ebbe Sand. tails, it's Daniel Sturridge"

Ah, I thought he wanted Alonso out; maddening decision in hindsight really if he did.

Forgot you signed Keane as well, that was an odd transfer. Imagine Benitez in charge with your signings and transfer committee now (although obv you do have faith in Brenton)

Intuitively, that sounds dreadful

My problem with the Barry sage is that even at his worst, Xabi was far superior to ASSASSIN, although Rafa loves his versatile players

Much as I love Rafa, he spent a lot of money on some right stinkers

Oh God lol

I think he did value Barry over Alonso - offered him to Arsenal and Juve for £18m, think both would only pay £12m. The idea that he wanted both I think is a bit revisionist on Rafa's part, since Alonso rediscovered his form and won almost everything.

how the hell does twitch work? i just signed up, but whenever i go to his page, it says i have to log in.

nnoooo he's going offline

I hope his brother is just like him.

I called out for you bud bb. Hear my call.

He obviously thought Sturridge was a striker that could fulfil his potential under his coaching abilities, and he was correct. It's an educated gamble, not a roll of the dice. And he trusted in both the player and himself to make it work.

The oracle also shoots the look...

With Brendan, in training he would whistle to stop the session and then look at you. It was just a look. He would stare at you and wait an extra couple of seconds so that it was uncomfortable. If he felt that a player wasn't pulling his weight or wasn't giving his all, he wouldn't hesitate to single him out. But he did it in a way where he didn't alienate the player. He would do it so that the player knew he wasn't just letting down himself, he was letting down the whole group, so there would a positive reaction from that player.

i saw that, but i can't post there even though i just signed up for it.

please help

 

[wedward]

There are very few sure things in football and Daniel Sturridge is not one of them.

 

[wedward]

The envelope now makes sense.

 

[FootballFan]

I don't know how it works either bud. But this guy got it working so it must be easy enough lol.

 

[Batigol]

Why am I watching a grown man rub his tits

 

[shortyme]

The is the best thing I've ever seen.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Sturridge was more of a calculated risk than a gamble

I want him to go back to his form from the end of last season tbh. The goals are nice, but his general standard of play was much better back then imo (perhaps related to this thigh injury he's been carrying for about a decade)
