i like a lot of the individual players but it makes me think of an nba team like the pacers. who's really going to take over and make something happen?

Arshavin :(

There's no-one else. Wilshere injured, RVP suspended, Cesc gone, $amir ****. I'm not adverse to playing Bendtner off the bench.

Is there any chance that Vela play today due to those two players unavailable to play? I mean, Vela is on the CL roster. Why not?

At this point I think we should hang on to Bendtner and then sell him when Vela comes back from loan.

I want Yoann Gourcuff and I don't want Jadson because I don't see how he makes us much better. After watching videos of him on youtube, I see a less impressive version of the pre-Arsenal highlights of Rosicky.

I was being sarcastic.

Wegner never plays Vela despite a need of a striker haha. Vela is too old to crack the starting lineup now :lol:

Strong words from Samir:

"I was very disappointed by the supporters last weekend," Nasri wrote. "I am still an Arsenal player but I will certainly leave very soon.

"It's nearly done. But I will leave with bitterness and anger in my heart."

I didn't think he would be happy that the away fans were singing " Samir is a c*nt"

My mistake on not reading the full article, apparently those quotes were said on a Facebook account (which Nasri claims he does not have). Denied saying that on his Twitter account.

fairly disappointing game, only 1 goal in the home leg could be a problem

Vela was captain for a game in a preseason game. Wenger's moved him to RW, he hasn't quite given up on Vela.

Speaking of Wenger giving up on forwards:

JET is apparently quite the goalscorer now.

JET was always too talented for he Championship, not focused enough for the Premiership. If he gets his attitude sorted he could certainly go places, though.

According to Arseblog Twitter, Nasri to Man City is done for £25m

Also, £200,000 per week and £5M net signing on fee...

What the crap...!
