We need Rooney.

There is going to be one big problem at Spurs during the new transfer window.

Levy will wait till the very last minute and try and get a player on the cheap, He won't buy Rooney due to his high wages. Spurs have a wage limit at the club and wont break it, With Bale, Levy will add on bonuses, and wont break the bank, thats a gurranteed certainy. And being a big Spurs fan, we know about Daniel.

I would prefer someone less troublesome than Rooney, maybe younger too. There must be someone better for £25 million and £200,000 in salary. Jovetic and Villa maybe? Also a midfielder and right back? We'll see. Giroud is fine btw. Not amongst the world's best but a decent forward.

I agree. I would think a lot would be better

Villa is too old. Barca can do one for playing games anyway, plus will they want to do business with us now we've stolen more youngsters off them?

Giroud isn't fine.

Bale will be sold I think.

Giroud is fine. It's not been a bad first season. We just need more. Players like Giroud add depth if we had another class striker. It gives us cover and someone to come on or partner the main forward. Jovetic isn't bad. Jovetic and Remy maybe.

Rooney falls out with managers, he is expensive and his fitness is questionable.

Giroud has barely touched the ball in the last couple of games prior to his dismissal. We've literally played with 10 men. that said Pods been awful too. I get scared of the word depth now, they just drain resources at Arsenal. Should Arsenal go for quality over quantity and throw youngsters in to make up the numbers?

I've not seen too much of Jovetic to comment. If his stats are anything to go by then 100k and 25m isn't worthy, ok he has double digit goals per season but its below 14.. can he step up? people say Wenger can get more out of him

youre being kind Cobby

People wonder why they're not universally popular.

How many players said 'We have got our trophy back'?

Anybody who says that is not arrogance is deluding themselves. No one has a right to a trophy...

iadom · 13-05-2013, 21:07

Could be construed as arrogance to sack a manager just because a team didn't win anything for one year, gives the impression that said people think that spending a huge amount of money entitles them to win every time.

I'm not a City supporter & wasn't commenting on that or your owners attitude. The players, albeit instilled by SAF, believe that they have a right to win the trophy every year. That is arrogance...
