Podolski is off then right?

 

[TheLucifer]

Zaccardo hasn't agreed on Parma's contract, the Biabiany swap could be blocked. Actually, it's been blocked a few minutes ago.

Damn you Suen, get on the phone and sort it out, give Zaccardo (a World Cup winner, just to remind it. And even scored a goal, don't mind for which side) whatever he wants.

"money doesnt matter to conte, they won't go over his head, there is no price"

"if we bid 100m would we get him"

"OBVIOUSLY"

"so there is a price that they'd go over his head at"

"OBVIOUSLY"

"so where are we disagreeing"

"there is no set price LOL"

FALCO Arrives!

Wait Falco?

Has someone pulled a fast one on us D:

 

[Salvadora]

ArsenalGAF is hilarious and/or sad, I'm not so sure yet.

They go from "we'll win the league" and being offended about someone laughing at the thought of top player X joining them to "Fuck Wenger", "We're shit" in less than a few hours.

Who said we would win the league, I want names.

WE ARE NOT DOING THIS AGAIN

but no, it's still a stupid argument and pulg was half-right.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Gazzetta dello Sport reports that if Van Ginkel plays more than twenty matches for AC Milan, there will be no loan fee involved. However, if Van Ginkel plays less than twenty matches, AC Milan will have to pay Chelsea around £475,000 (€600,000). If Van Ginkel plays exactly twenty matches, then the loan fee will be around £315,000 (€400,000).

That's one way to get them to play I guess lol

 

[tabs2002]

Welbeck

Ugh

We can do better

 

[Kurt Angle]

FALCO Arrives!

Wait Falco?

its the harrera imposters!

they are back

dont think we are paying ALL of Falcao's wages

[Niven]

I feel like being an arsenal fan is going to make me die young! All this stress

 

[LegoArmo]

£20m for Welbeck, or Arsenal can fuck off. Spurs can have him for £15m.

 

[Zabojnik]

Sort of.

Selling a homegrown player like Cristante doesn't seem that good to me, especially if he actually asked the board to sell him after getting Van Ginkel on loan. Also, Torres is a bet, he might be great, Liverpool style, or a failure with a dozen useless goals, Chelsea style. Rami, Diego Lopez and Poli were all great deals, and keeping De Jong and El Shaa is what we needed in this kind of season.

It's not a bad mercato, we had worse, but it's also not a 2010 like mercato (Ibra+Robinho+Boateng+Amelia and somebody else). I'd give the Gold Tie a 6.5 out of 10, would've been a 7 out of 10 if we kept Cristante.

And, most importantly, Pippo.

I'm reading that the Biabiany deal collapsed?

 

[jtb]

Are you missing the fact that Giroud is injured? Welbeck will play a ton of games, in his favoured position. It's a great move for him personally.

No, I'm not.

of course it's a great move for him; he stands to lose nothing. it's a terrible move for Arsenal but that's what you get when you wait until the very last minute to buy players.

 

[brokenbeans]

Welbeck

Ugh

We can do better

How many strikers have Arsenal had the chance to sign?

 

[Lana Del Rey]

that was a mind-bending plot twist btw :lol <3

Hahaha

Transfer deadline day plot twist innit

 

[RiggyRob]

What if Arsenal is our main top 4 rival? That's where it gets tricky.

I suppose that means Welbecks doing a good job, which is a positive. You're right though, that would make it more difficult.

 

[Salvadora]

why didn't wedward even say goodbye

 

[Mr Cola]

I honestly dont see why Arsenal are made at Welbeck, every United fan is sad he is leaving, he is not bad at all :3

Give him a run of games, the creativity of your CM's and he will score goals.

 

[WJD]

Don't mean to go all Marc but I do hope this doesn't set off a chain of events ultimately leading us to doing a Chelsea/Arsenal/City and fielding a team full of foreigners.

I've always liked that we've been able to stay successful with a strong core of local players.

The fact that up and coming English talent is looking pretty thin at the moment probably doesn't help things, mind.

 

[Zabojnik]

I don't think I've ever seen Pulga-san admit to being wrong about something. Like, I'm not even talking about outright admitting it, just, like, hinting at it. Pulga <333

 

[Disagree Guy]

Herrera can pass a ball. him and Mata should be that link up. ADM can play centrally too, and even if he doesn't he can certainly get the ball forward and provide that last-third pass.

I agree with the rest of your post tho, and with the overall message. ADM and Falcao were big name signings that fell into Woody's lap, but they cost a lot of money where CB and DM/CM were priorities which are going to be unfulfilled. If anything, I hope they at least play some exciting football. With that quality of players they should.

Fair comeback really I reckon.

I aren't really impressed with Herrera and I don't understand why Mata has suddenly turned off the boil.

ADM has played brilliantly in the past and I'm sure he's still capable of doing so, I just think your point about the CB/DM will be the biggest factor though mate.

 

[K1LLER7]

United told Welbeck and Cleverley to sort out their own futures.

Welbeck permanent move should be for 15m+. Dat English tax.

 

[Mastadon]

I honestly dont see why Arsenal are made at Welbeck, every United fan is sad he is leaving, he is not bad at all :3

No he fucking won't. He scored 10 in all competitions last year.

 

[Kikarian]

SOMEONE BUY CLEVERLEY

 

[Jack cw]

Wenger pls. What are you doing?

 

[phaze]

FRIMPONG update

He has signed FC ufa of the Russian Premier League.

That takes major balls.


Just checked that city and its in the goddamn Ural mountains. Poor Frimpy.

 

[Peco]

FUCKING ZACCARDO YOU PIECE OF SHIT

 

[Yurt]

That's one way to get them to play I guess lol

HAHAH you're on to Galliani

I bet he wanted to Aquilani you too

the Italian midfielder has to play 25 games for Milan this season if he wants his loan deal to be permanent come the end of the season.

and he was benched permenantly after the 24 mark I think :lol

 

[TheLucifer]

And, most importantly, Pippo.

I'm reading that the Biabiany deal collapsed?

I'll judge Pippo in November-December. Yesterday was a good display everything considered (played like a true provinciale), but we'll have to see how a midfield without a proper regista will do against Juve and Roma. We lack quality in there, and I'm not sure Van Ginkel could do a lot to save us from a De Jong-Muntari-Poli midfield. I mean, we won't be a painful watch like last year, but at the same we won't be that great.
And yeah, the Biabiany deal is off:

Zaccardo hasn't agreed on Parma's contract, the Biabiany swap could be blocked. Actually, it's been blocked a few minutes ago.

Damn you Suen, get on the phone and sort it out, give Zaccardo (a World Cup winner, just to remind it. And even scored a goal, don't mind for which side) whatever he wants.

HAHAH you're on to Galliani

I bet he wanted to Aquilani you too



and he was benched permenantly after the 24 mark I think :lol

Yep. Allegri blindly followed what Galliani said, even if we were still in the Scudetto race.

 

[brokenbeans]

SOMEONE BUY CLEVERLEY

That means we need another CM.

 

[Mr Cola]

No he fucking won't. He scored 10 in all competitions last year.

10 more than Sanogo will score this year

 

[Lightning]

Are you missing the fact that Giroud is injured? Welbeck will play a ton of games, in his favoured position. It's a great move for him personally.

Only if it's a permanent deal. If it's a loan he will not get ahead of Sanogo.

 

[Esch]

Arsenal interest in Welbeck early as of yet

 

[Godan]

If we can get Welbeck and play him as a striker then it will be good for us. Still not the world class striker we all want but its better than Sanogo

 

[Disagree Guy]

No he fucking won't. He scored 10 in all competitions last year.

Hahaha and 2 league goals the year before.

He is NOT best as a striker. Winger? Competently average.

 

[LegoArmo]

Welbeck would start ahead of Giroud too, you Arsenal fans are mental.

 

[CecilRousso]

SOMEONE BUY CLEVERLEY

Twitter rumours says Crystal Palace are interested.

 

[Abraxas]

I'd legitimately gorce wenger to buy pato at this point. €8 million. He's gagging to join. Used to be good.

Sandro to QPR. Worst deadline day ever.

I've always liked that we've been able to stay successful with a strong core of local players.

The fact that up and coming English talent is looking pretty thin at the moment probably doesn't help things, mind.

That core was essentially bringing Scholes back from retirement and Giggs playing til he was 40. Welbeck's the only English local talent I can think of in the last 5 years that got into the first team.

No he fucking won't. He scored 10 in all competitions last year.

Behind RVP and Rooney, with a shit midfield, that's almost a compliment.

why didn't wedward even say goodbye

Yep. Even now, we can field Jones, Evans, Smalling, Shaw, Carrick, Rooney... but that's going to be dwindling.

Fucking Zaccardo man

 

[Disagree Guy]

Sandro to QPR. Worst deadline day ever.

Is that permanent? Fucking hell.

I really rate Sandro. Would take him as a long term replacement for Lucas at Liverpool any day.
