if Theo was ever going to get a chance to be the second coming of Henry, it would have happened three or four years ago. Wenger played Gervinho ahead of him. it's never happening lol

it's too bad, he can definitely do a job there—better than Giroud anyways

 

[Clegg]

Well def sounds like Gahl's started to choose who is leaving. Saddens me that Young and Cleverley appear not to be among them atm.

Edit: Really?

Zaha and Nani going would mean we're probably on the lookout for a new winger. Poor Kagawa never really settled. Thought he was beginning to show some form near the end of Fergie's last season, but when Moyes took over its clear that he didn't rate him. Then we bought a better player in Mata.

Strange he calls him his top 3 passer of the ball and would off him, considering those who are apparently going to stay. Maybe he wants more first team football.

Walcott is better out wide regardless. No reason to push him up top unless we're desperate.

With this news of departures it makes me more sure than ever we've got some players sorted to replace them.

 

[Salvadora]

Di Marzio says we are "seriously interested" in Costa.

That signing would literally make 0 sense.

 

[Milchmonster]

:lol

Mate, it's more hilarious your repeated posting of that Cesc gif like anyone cares.

The Cesc gif is great.

But now that you've found my weaknesseses, I must hide

Spoiler

I'm posting random stuff because I didn't really get what you were trying to so.

are you still drinking mate?

 

[Suen]

Sorry Footy GAF. Only meant to include the first four weeks. Edited it.

 

[Nicktendo86]

Why the fuck do utd have to brief the media like this though? These players might not even know they are being shipped, it is so disrespectful. I swear idiots are running this club.

 

[Clegg]

Agreed. If Fellaini and Ando go too then we have to be looking at another cm. We'd only have three fit midfielders left.

We know LvG wants to cut the squad size to around 20 players tho. But there's no way he'll sell all these players without bringing in some new ones.

Serie A GAF



Cesena on the first week should be interesting. There's also Roma - Fiore which will be nice. Milan the second week, easy victory there

#BasedInzaghi.

Vidal me if old.

Mobile users RIP

EDIT: I take too long to post.

Week 3 OH BABY MAX IS COMING HOME

 

[kharma45]

Lads, Ladyman says Anderson, Nani and Kagawa could also be on the way out.

Shinji

We'll miss his shirt sales.

YES

Rosicky is 33 and pretty much our backup for Ozil currently. If we can get Costa on a loan deal, I don't see why not? He can play out wide and through the middle. If we sign him I'd see it as Wenger getting a bargain at the right time. Maybe we don't need him, but if he's available for less than what we value him at, it could be a good gamble.

 

[johnthequad]

If we sign Douglas Costa maybe Theo gets more games up front. He's been looking stronger in his photos. Hopefully he's working on his hold up play.

 

[Elchele]

Kagawa to HSV innit

YES

Currently drinking this badboy here:

do you even like mate?

Don't know if I would like that vodka. I actually don't like mangos that much, it's only because I'm far from home and the last time I ate one was like 5 years ago.

 

[Suen]

Mobile users RIP

Pls understand. I fixed it. Roma and Milan the first month in the league. FIGC PLS.

 

[johnthequad]

Will Costa get a work permit though? Willian and Fenandihno got theirs easy.

Knowing Arsenal's luck, no.

 

[Clegg]

Vidic, Rio, Evra, Buttner and Bebe are the confirmed departures. Fellaini, Ando, Shinji and Zaha are now thought to be on shaky ground. Massive turnover of players.

 

[Barzul]

I agree.

Yet you wanted Greizzman? How is this any different. Neither make sense.

 

[Milchmonster]

Lol. Arsenal fans still waste their time with milch? That was so last year...

Luckily I have the twit on ignore and gifs disabled so that neither can irritate me.

Nothing on the Clevdog front right?

Need him to leave :/

It's a pity it couldn't have been more gradual.

Vidic and Evra ideally could've stayed another year.

Anderson, much as I like him, should've been one a season or two ago.

 

[jtb]

I think Griezmann is better.

I'd like to think all that karma is building up until next summer when we sign Reus.

 

[arkon]

I'd like to see footage of Anderson taking part in Van Gaal's passing drills.

Mate? How did you get to mate lol? Anyway, I quite like the German hipster Club Mate drink but I doubt it has much/anything to do with real mate.

I'll tell you a secret, I don't actually drink that vodka right now. It's most likely disgusting as hell :lol

Haha, don't do this to me :lol

 

[D_prOdigy]

Sad if Kagawa leaves, but it's just one of those things. He'll join the school of gifted players who just didn't quite make it in view of circumstance: Kagawa, Veron, Forlan, Eagles.

 

[Salvadora]

He won the FA Cup last season and it was fine.

Arsenal wins.

Life goes on.

It's crazy how much traction Wayne Veysey gets while being wholly unreliable. Like, I'm almost impressed how he can make up stories every week yet people still take his next one as gospel.

 

[wedward]

Except he isn't...

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

Can somebody explain to me why players from a mid-table Premier League team are so coveted?

At least Bayer Leverkusen made it to the CL Finals before the big clubs gutted them.

 

[Elchele]

everyone drinks mate in Argentina. For breakfast, for a snack later in the day, etc. I don't get it. It tastes like shit.

Experienced PL players are always a plus. And they are pretty good.

Only reason people are raising eyebrows is this would generally happen over 3-4 seasons this time it's happened over 1 month.

 

[Clegg]

Independent running with the same story too. Only they're saying nobody wants Nani or Anderlol.

 

[Lightning]

Still prefer Khedira. Those wage demands of his were such a stinker.

Well you have to understand that even mid-table EPL teams operate on a higher level than their German/Spanish champion counterparts, such is the strength and greatness of the league.

 

[Arnie]

That Fellaini briefing is too funny.

I legit laughed.

The spine of the team is (was?) pretty young. And they're mostly British, so there's a heavy mark-up. There will be a few of these players that definitely disappoint though. The values of these players will never be higher.

There was no rush to dismantle the Newcastle team that finished 5th a few years ago. After just half a season in the Europa League, their values all plummeted back to Earth and eventually Cabaye, Ba went for pretty small fees.
