Ha it was Bartimaeus, I knew something was sounding wrong. 

Meanwhile please go back and check how many goals these your under the radar ninjas (TM Ibime) conceded too. At least we have to be sure you know what you are talking about before we sack Wenger and put you in charge

^^^^^^^^^^

So basically, Coogar is a better scout than Wenger.
Issokay.

debosky:
Coogar should stop making inane comparisons. . .Kun came on and almost single-handedly took Swansea apart.

That's someone with less than 2 weeks training with his side and 'tired' from the Copa?

Compared to Bolton where Muamba has scored his only goal of the season, Gabbidon scored on their behalf and the like?

This season the fear of Kun will be driven into all EPL defenders.

debosky:
So the aim is to get rid of Wenger or have Arsenal FC succeed?

The fans need to be careful - if their booing leads to worse performances, the slide may become precipitous - then what?

Arsenal will not suddenly become a club that can spend like Utd or Citeh, even if Wenger leaves, so then what?

I really hope they move Tevez on, if Tevez changes his mind and stays, City will win the PL.

nateevs:
Yeah yeah. You always find a way out. Aguero will cop 20 goals in the PL in his first season. . . easily!
He's got skill, strength, vision and one wonderful eye for goal. And he's only 23.

£35m? City will be looking like smart brokers.

You lost your priviledge to be listened to by me when you started chucking words that go against forum rules. I indulged you once and won't descend into stupidity
My vocabulary of Mandrill babbles isn't that well developed thank you.

duduspace:
Cool down and don't blow your top or you might just fall off that tree, your babbles are getting even more incoherent and will soon reach fever pitch.
You were always a dickhead and I knew you would soon get to a critical point when you run out of ideas, when yu're ready to discuss civilly I will indulge you.  For now I hold my peace, point made.

duduspace:
Yu're chasing your tail now but that's hardly surprising of a confused mandrill.
how does a gagging order yu said was issued in may during pre-negotiations validate your assertion that the deal was done Friday morning?
only in sauron's confused mind hei?

duduspace:
Human-baboon hybrids are easily recognizable from their tendency to grasp at straws or anything in sight that resembles a twig. 
Was the gagging order put in place before or after negotiations?  
Look behind you, I think your prominent sacrum is making someone uneasy. 

Ibime:
Nna men,

The way Aguero and co display today, it would be a three way fight for the title. We thought £40m was too much for Aguero until we went and paid £50m for Torres. Kai!

We would need to buy two more players if we plan to wrestle the title away from the following front-4s:

Hernandez

Young Rooney Nani


And:


Aguero

Nasri Tevez Silva

How can gooners believe gospel mixed with satanic verses?

You said his medical would be Friday, it didn't happen till today - you were talking out of your coogar arse.

duduspace:
Where did I tell you the deal was concluded today?
Wenger's press conference was on Friday morning NO?
I suppose your brain would be rejected by the apes if they could speak, saw dust and grey mata is quite a wrong mix 

duduspace:
Your eyes still deceiving you? where do you see "morning" in that statement?  or is your head a vestigial appendage?  

dayokanu:
Yet wenGAy was telling them as at Friday that he is not going.

coogar:
cesc is on his way to barcelona. . . . .the deal is worth £31 million.
he will complete his medicals today and must be presented on monday.

on twitter, pique and puyol have already commented on his move.
if i were an arsenal fan, i'd not believe anything that comes out of wenger's mouth.

he has always been economical with the truth.

dayokanu:
This would show us how big Schmeichel's transfer fee was

Krayola:
Cesc: "I spoke to [Wenger] on Friday to say goodbye and got very emotional because he has been like a father figure,]" Fábregas said. "I couldn't even talk when I wanted to say how grateful I was for what he has done to me, so I had to send a message afterwards saying thanks for everything. If it was not for him I would not be here today to live my dream. I will never have enough words to say how grateful I am. I went from being a boy to a man and they gave me absolutely everything in football. I have mixed emotions. Life goes on: Arsenal will always be there, the fans will always be there. Players come and go; the club will always be bigger than them."

"At Arsenal, there were finals and semi-finals but we always lacked that little extra push to win something. That was hard to take. It was not that we didn't win titles it was that we kept going through the same routine, the same things happening to us and us messing up. I gave everything for Arsenal but it didn't show in the [trophy] cabinet because I only won one FA Cup. That is the biggest regret I will have in my career – not to be able to lift a trophy as Arsenal captain."

"I am sorry I couldn't say anything for the last two and half months, Arsenal would not allow me to talk, I was disappointed and upset about that but it had to be like that. I still have, personally, a great relationship with them and I am disappointed to have maybe lost [the affection of] some of the fans.

"I am sorry I couldn't say anything, I am sorry. I was very, very sad to be leaving. I spent a third of my life there – eight years."

Newcastle and Arsenal have been charged with failing to control their players following Saturday's Premier League fixture, the Football Association have confirmed. Arsenal's Alex Song has been charged separately with violent conduct following an earlier incident in the same game.

The Arsenal forward Gervinho was sent off in the second half for striking the Newcastle midfielder Joey Barton after the pair had squared up following what the home side claimed was a dive in the penalty area. Arsenal have appealed that red card, but the midfielder Song could now also face disciplinary action after his stamp on Barton, which had inflamed the situation, was missed by the referee, Peter Walton.

A statement from the FA read: "Newcastle United and Arsenal have been charged by the FA with failing to control their players following Saturday's (13 August) fixture at St James' Park.

"Both clubs have been charged following a mass confrontation of players following an incident in which Arsenal's Gervinho was also shown a red card in the 75th minute. Following Gervinho's dismissal Arsenal have today lodged a claim that the standard punishment of a three-match suspension is clearly excessive. A Regulatory Commission will hear the claim on 16 August.

"Meanwhile Arsenal's Alex Song has been charged separately by the FA with violent conduct following an incident earlier in the same fixture. Both clubs have until 4pm on 18 August to respond to the charge, whilst Song must reply by 6pm on 16 August."

As it stands, Gervinho would serve an automatic three-match ban – missing games against Liverpool, Manchester United and Swansea – and Song could also be hit by the same retrospective punishment.

Barton, meanwhile, received a yellow card for his part in the melee, and as such has already been sanctioned. The midfielder admitted he "went down easily" following Gervinho's slap, and also engaged in some heated exchanges on Twitter, a social media platform which the FA continues to keep a close eye on.

nateevs:
You probably have not heard him talk in a while.
Several interviews on Chelsea made me realise he speak very well.

Doesn't look like he was born in the same region as Nwankwo Kanu.

StarBoard:
Echoing my sentiments at the start of the summer transfer window.
By the way,your u-turn on summer transfer policy by Fergie is becoming apparent.You assured us Fergie will spend on a midfielder.We are just about two weeks till the window slams shut.I do not forsee any new signing.David Gill said three signings,and I think we're just about done.

duduspace:
droplets of insanity from a slack gob that needs to be weld shut permanently. 
show me the proof that this deal was done thursday night or keep it zipped jare.

Rio is no longer part of your defence abi?  Berbatov is no longer part of your attack and neither is Rooney? how much did that lot go for again? 
and if we're judging Managers on the basis of one match, why not judge Fergie on the drubbing West Ham who are now relegated gave in knocking you out of the same Carling cup?

hannie:
I wont forgive Henry and Cesc for the half-hearted performances they gave when having lusted after Barca they played dismally against Barca, NO! I WONT . . .They proved to be scumbags and those are some of the things that we Arsenal fans suffer from - COLLECTIVE AMNESIA!!!

dayokanu:
I didnt know Zanetti was a Milanese, Keane were Manchester indegenes

duduspace:
stop talking squirting rubbish  
The interview was on Friday morning, the deal wasn't confirmed at the time of the press conference and there were still documents to sign and send, as at the time of the interview, Cesc was still an Arsenal player.

I'm glad Neville is unbiased, don't agree he had to be though, he is bucking the trend of punditry in the UK and for that I'm glad.
I personally don't think any of those ones would have made much difference, its the overall squad strength we're talking about not one or 2 signings, not many of Arsene's signings are faulted, its the signings he doesn't make that are and that points to problems with cash flow IMO.
By the way, you can direct those questions to Gary, isn't he one of your club legends?
there is a comments section on the article.
By the way, yu can take it up with Gary

ritchboy:
Valdes

Alves Pique Puyol Abidal

Busquets

Xavi Iniesta

Messi

Pedro Villa

How do you actually fit Cesc/Sanchez into this team?

The rest of Europe is in trouble. . . As in, knee deep in shyte!

StarBoard:
As for Sneijder,Let's not beat about the bush too much.Wages/transfer fee,it's all the same:Sneijder is deemed too expensive either way.

duduspace:
Shallow reasoning, negotiations were still going on at this stage and it was not a done deal, if he was sure Cesc would stay, a simple YES would have sufficed to the reporter's question. Most arsenal fans resigned to losing Cesc ages ago, even the few who held on for emotional and rational reasons gave up a few weeks back. That had no impact whatsoever on season ticket renewals, yu're grasping at straws.

naijababe:
@ Coogar, why you dey take phensic for other people's headache now, abeg carry go jo!

duduspace:
Now this takes the mickey? Weirdest source of backing for Arsene Wenger.
Gary Neville of all people  

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2025700/Gary-Neville-Arsenal-fans-shouldnt-criticise-Arsene-Wenger.html

Amazing, coming from someone who played under Fergie. A most hated enemy can see this but crying shame our own fans can't see it.
much respect to Gary Neville that he can come out and say the truth despite club affiliations.

StarBoard:
Coogar,
I doubt your analysis about transfer fee.
in 1991 (the year Schmeichel moved to United), David Platt was the record transfer for 5.5 million pounds (Villa to Bari)
How does a fee 1/11th of that become exhorbitant?

As for Sneijder,Let's not beat about the bush too much.Wages/transfer fee,it's all the same:Sneijder is deemed too expensive either way.
Back to De Gea.

Where he is from isn't the issue for me.The fella is lacking in areas I think a top-notch goalie should be having.
If Cassilas can be the goalie of Real at 18,De Gea shouldn't be causing us palpitations when he's in between the stick.He has two appearances and two gaffes,do you think it's normal to be comfortable with a man in between the posts with that rap early on into his United career?
And as for United,

We were crap from 2004-2006.We lost to all sorts of basement teams.We finished LAST in our CL group in 2005/06.We celebrated the Carling Cup like it was the league title.

Yes the names we lost started a CL final,but so did Djibril Cisse and Djimi Traore for Liverpool.So to me it's really not a big deal,given that peeps like Ronaldo de Lima haven't smelt a CL final.
Jose had the best team in Europe?Not true.How didn't they win the CL during that era?

ritchboy:
I hope Wenger realizes if he doesn't bring any reputable "replacement" in, blood will spill?

Oh wait, 29M can't even get you any really good player in today's market! Unless you are Barcelona and the target is Cesc Fabregas!

Then again there are still like a million people on the waiting list for season tickets so it's all good!

debosky:
^^ Stop being a muppet - season ticket renewals happen in May, not in August.
