rach 1 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 We will be Top 3, I am certain of it. We might even win it. As we should, of course. Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 I thought he'd want different players because he's tactically a very different manager to Moyes. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Thank the lord for that (the very different manager bit). Moyes had no obvious tactics. Still, I don't grasp your point. Moyes probably 'wanted' (dreamed of, a bit like I do) any decent player. He (or let's say while he was in charge) hardly inspired great results in terms of incoming on that front did he. Even what looks like a quality player like Mata was reduced to looking a rubbish playing for Moyes. Let's see how Mata looks in a few months. Sheer panic buy mop head was just pathetic whichever way you look at it. The new manager dude won't have OKd transfers on the basis that Mr Moyes was interested in them, a laughable thought. The things are as linked as two things that are completely not linked with each other in any way at all. Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Arsenal being linked with three well needed players. Hopefully this will sort something out. I was reading 442 on the train to work today and it said that "50% of injured players last season were injured during training sessions". Sums up Arsenal's fortunes really there.

grungy-gonads 54 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Arsenal could probably do with selling on their ever-present Bottle, who always seems to turn up when they look half decent. Link to post Share on other sites

pie-eater 207 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 (Agent) Moyes' tactics were to sabotage Man Utd and create as much damage as possible in as short a time as possible. He was jolly successful! Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted July 8, 2014 Author Share Posted July 8, 2014 I have seen the "doing a Spurs" mentioned on a few sites as well. Seems like the phrase has taken hold! Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Erikson is a good player but Soldado had a really bad year, missing sitters. Their record signing, Lamela, was nowhere to be seen. A real wtf situation. There were also noises about the players coming in not being who AVB wanted. I think Spurs use a DOF system. Suarez himself was a poor finisher under Dalglish, so maybe the new Spurs players just need time. Chelsea and Citeh have done loads of shopping in recent years, but not always to good effect. The England team on paper will be worth loads more than other teams that got more than one point at the WC. You have to play as a team. After getting into the CL, Liverpool will be unlucky to lose Suarez. He's done the business, but they've done well by him. After the dodgy Neymar deal, Barcelona were supposed to have a transfer ban, but that seems to have lasted all of five minutes. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Wonder if this 750 million deal with Adidas for shirts is true. Mind boggling! Link to post Share on other sites
Thundercat 60 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Our first summer signing! Gareth Barry! Now let's start signing some new exciting players. We've got a few more matches next season and we don't even have a striker... Hurry up! Link to post Share on other sites

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Is Anderson still there? I'd punt Valencia as well. What about Nani....has he gone? Wellbeck as well TBH, he just doesn't seem to be good enough Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 They are all still there, smelling a bit funny in the corner. Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Anderson scoffing a pie, of course. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Sadly yes they are all still here. Hopefully not for long. Welbeck can perhaps stay, as a backup. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 That's the point with Wellbeck tho isn't it.....he's ok, would be decent at a lesser club, but just not good enough for top drawer Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Welbeck got stuck on the left after they got RVP and the output of Nani, Valencia and Young fell away. He's had a lot of flak since. I don't think he's a world beater, but offers something else to RVP and Rooney. To develop more as a striker, he probably needs a move though. Nani's two last seasons have been a disaster, like Earth Song and Heal the World. It was all Thriller before that. He needs to get back with Quincy and find his mojo. Shamone!

Thundercat 60 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 He'd actually be a good fit at Everton. There were rumours earlier in the summer but haven't heard anything since. Link to post Share on other sites

NoFakie 45 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Alexis Sanchez to Arse confirmed. It sounds like he must have chosen them over Liverpool, so hard lines to Brenda there. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Funny he snubbed Liverpool. Somewhat surprising he chose Arsenal. Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Great signing for Arsenal. Talking of which, what happened to Ozil last season? Didn't he start off great? Link to post Share on other sites
