A broken fibula would be nice. Or tibia. I'm not fussy.

Chelsea playing good football. Interested to see how they'll set up in the tougher games.

"Said it at the time, how does Wenger turn Sanchez down? Better attacker than anything they have, and you prevent your supposed title rival from getting a massive player. Silly."

What he posted backed up what I was saying.
The end result of buying Ozil is you missed out on a much better player in his position and spent £15 million in the process.
Irrefutable.

It's funny because Cesc basically was your system for a few years.

Actually it's
16 matches: 8 wins for Guardiola, 3 for Mourinho and 5 draws.

Respond?
We spent £42m last summer on a player in his position and undoubtedly gave him assurances he would be a starter, along with a boatload of wages. Cesc becomes available the next summer for a (relatively) large fee and in all likelihood would demand higher wages. As it stands, in summer 2014, creativity is not a problem in our squad. We needed someone like Alexis to make up for our serious deficiencies in pace and cutting edge.
Really, it isn't hard to see why Wenger made the decision he did. Would I have liked Cesc back for sentimental reasons? Of bloody course, but it isn't reasonable to expect management to sanction a deal like that. Although we are much more financially powerful now, we're no oil club.
Using hindsight in this manner is a bit stupid. Would we have got a better player if we had waiting another year? Possibly. But we could have been out of the top 4 as a result.
still bitter about Real?

This is from the 45 minutes of Cesc action (EPL) you've witnessed? I mean the hyperbole from the start of this game is something else.

Remember when Bayern's officials were talking in public about Bayern joining Serie A because there's no competition in the Bundesliga?
Why didn't you just do that?
What happened to your tag?
We had enough of them in the past 5 years, had to give others a chance.

Chelsea will win all 4 trophies
:lol Sounds like something Beckenbauer said.
But yeah, I definitely remember something like this.
I'm doing my sabbatical year after Dortmund killed our players. I don't want arguments. But I respect your opinion.
So Cesc is going to transfer to Liverpool in January?
If I only knew what a / where Burley is.... apart from seeing their name (for whatever reason) next to the Chelsea scoreline of course...
mh Liverpool ? the Dortmund of England.. dunno if I like
United? the natural fit, but it's more fun to laugh at them and I couldnt take LVG for a second time
Chelsea? nope I cant... though Mou... hm... maybe a little bit
Arsenal? I don't think my heart could take it.
City? LOL
guess I should start reading up on Burley
but why am a even talking about the teams?
PoolGAF? I think I actually like them and they sound more and more like us Bayern fans? Only up 1-0? WE ARE DOOMED. Spending 101m on transfers? NEED Falcao! Lucas? SELL HIM. I could see myself feeling right at home.
UnitedGAF? GreatGAF but the team.. I just cant.
ArsenalGAF? Is there even one?
ChelseaGAF? The demon's of our past.
Arsenal GAF has the Wenger is an idiot debate every day. We're just following suit now.

The difference is the Glazers put competent (more like semi competent) people in charge down in Florida to run the football side of things. They've spent a ton of money in recent years on players and brought in a quality coach/front office. Woodward is clueless and needs to be put out of his misery and have a director of football brought in. It's probably different Glazers running United.
