I'm not patronising anyone. Try again Damien. You seem to think it was all done correctly and I'm saying it wasn't. It wasn't just me calling them incompetent neither so step back and think about it, why would there be an uproar for nothing? The Suarez saga dragged on far too long, I'll give the club the benefit of the doubt and say the media did drag it out may be a week or two longer than it really did but even then you have you ask yourself what the bloody hell were they doing in between. Cavani moved to PSG late on. Cavani moving was expected to happen as soon as the window opened, infact before the window opened. Chelsea wanted him but couldn't afford it :LOL: imagine that, Arsenal could afford to buy Cavani but Chelsea couldn't!! Juventus couldn't afford to pay Real Madrid 25m£cash for Higuain and Arsenal could!

Its incompetence or fraud.

I make several points:
Firstly, For former managers and players, and fans to say that Pardew should be sacked for the 'so called headbutt' is out of order

I have seen the tv footage, and to me its just a clash of heads where he has gone in and under a fit of anger 'it looks like a butt' and that Newcastle have fined him £100.000 for it. BUT maybe the football authorities should crack down on some really nasty tackles and also headbutts.

Charlie Adams is one of the worst offenders of these 'crimes' on the field.

I also believe that Daniel Levy will remove Sherwood from managerial duties and move the Dutch manager in - thats why Sherwood was on a short contract.

Can't believe Stoke are actually challenging the decision.....

Woooo!

Also means Rosicky should be the first Arsenal player since Bergkamp(!) to get a testimonial. Mertesacker will likely be captain next year too.

Also Ramsey will sign a new 5 year contract: http://www.theguardian.com/football/...senal-contract

Cazorla has apparently already agreed a new deal too if you believe the press.

Sagna must be on his way out.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Yes rumours have said several clubs were interested in Sagna including us.:shocked:

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Sagna wants 100k. PSG will hand him the contract plus a fat signing on fee. Not sure about replacement. Jenkinson is above average, nothing more as of yet.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

na wont happen. it benefits some. it destroys others. its the clubs choice what they want to do.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

what if you have a dog of a manager, not good for that team

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

On the whole most managers are sacked far too quickly and replaced by people who are no better then they are and in many cases are even worse then the ex managers who they are replacing.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

I do like it. I would say you need to put a UEFA/FIFA rule that a manager can only hold one registration per season (i.e can only manage one club that season). So it allows a manager to be fired but makes it more difficult for one to be hired from elsewhere until the season is over unless you appoint a caretaker. This would allow clubs to address a serious situation but somewhat limit the merry-go-around. Additionally managers must be compensated for at least the entire reason irrespective of their contract.

I would also close the winter transfer window. The manger and team you enter a season with should be the one with which you finish with.
