Director of defense Jydo, wetin consign you consign attacker nah grin

Gervinho can't be officialy signed until July 1st. Its a crossborder sumtin.

Although reports suggest we've already agreed the fees at around £10m though.

Why Chuckdee dey laugh. Sharon actually argued that Bebe was an astute signing. grin

This is where it gets sad though, he was counting reserve goals to back up his point. As in seriously? shocked grin 7million pounds?! shocked shocked grin

Wow I'm learning everyday, save ratio is useless stats for a keeper. Only catching crosses. grin

And someone was telling us the other day we needed Given. . .talk abt irony.

Fabianski upped his numbers from 50s into the 70s in less than half a season. Give the boy his credit.

*he does really poor when coming in after a long stay on the bench
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fans Thread (for Arsenal Fans) by slimshay(m): 9:58am On Jun 17, 2011
Ibime abeg back dat Flappianski statement. Seeing that his save ratio was even better than Tech 9's.

However the reason I'd agree with you is that does really poor when coming after long stay on the bench.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fans Thread (for Arsenal Fans) by slimshay(m): 9:54am On Jun 17, 2011
Scott Parker can't displace anybody in the first team. But he seems a better substitute for Song than Denilson is. We still need back up DM oh. Baba Ijebu no dey hear word.

And in other news Newcastle away first game. They owe us, and by Dennis, we sure are collecting!!!
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fans Thread (for Arsenal Fans) by slimshay(m): 7:18am On Jun 17, 2011
Ha Ibis don add hin own join, in that instance the train track midget is also better than C.Ronaldo who also favors the ball away from his feet when using pace.

Of cos midgets run better with ball at their feet; anthropometrics and all that nonsense.

However like Richie said, that spud midget can only run. Wtf is dat tin he does sticking his hands straight out by his sides anyways.

Len**n in the red and white. . .ogbeni stop am o!

Maybe you didn't get it. Twitchy's admission was like saying they made the whole endline the goalpost so that Rooney could remember how to score tongue. Actually who knows maybe this is what helped Shrek sef.

They had Pav, Defoe (who challenged for golden boot), and a host of midfielders who loved a crack at it, yet they registered abysmal return in assists. Only thing they developed between them was how to drop their shoulders and run past defenders and everybody thot they had arrived. Oshi o da.

Planet-of-the-apes beat Maicon a coupla times and he became the next best thing since Obama wrote audacity of hope. One assist for player of the year. I hide my head in shame.

Walcott went about his business quietly this year, while Hansen and Waddle were pissing themselves rewinding the tapes of last season. Goals and Assists column don't lie oh.

Again Theo shytes on them and wipes his a$$ with all 3 their jerseys any day of the week and then some.

There is no player more one-dimensional in the premier league than the spud midget. He messed up a lot of Totoyam's attack last season. He had to be training with U-15s to feel among for forkssakes.

Sharon jus as you pointed out with Baines, Totnum's attack come mainly from the wings. That's why planet-of-the-apes and the midget register high number of key passes. But don't really cut it in assists, they are always looking for high-tension pole to knock it down for VdV. Talk about percentage football.

Walcott shytes on the midget, planet-of-the-apes and every overhyped nonsense they put out.

Oh so there is a clear avoidance of doubt, let me tell you how s#!t that cock-loving midget is. . .

Recently Twitchy revealed they send him to train with the juniors of their junior squad so he can gain confidence by being able to dribble them. Or they ask them to mark him lightly. The w@nker can't even dribble respectably in training.

That is who you want to compare to Theo Walcott. You must be outta your godamn mind.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fans Thread (for Arsenal Fans) by slimshay(m): 2:34pm On Jun 16, 2011
Lennon is miles better than Theo. . .evryday I come here for comedy value amongst other things, people just won't fail me. shocked grin shocked grin shocked grin

@Lateef I have not compared the figures( I believe in analytical stats) but I'm going with the basic ones of goals and assists. More importantly I'm going with the games I've seen them play balanced with what I think we need in attack. Gervinho seems to be more lively and better at taking opponents on. I believe after we made RvP our top man we took this out of his game and concentrated on developing his hold-up play. We have Chamahk who is very good in that stead. So a third mould of striker (I compare him to Luis Suarez) is what I believe we need. Seeing as we have sent our 2 boldest players to the wings Arshavin and Nasri. I'm not counting Theo, he's a natural winger. How far, nobody agreeing to be pissed on at the busstop outside Fulham?

However a word on that line blaming the management for rewarding average players with contract. It should be said that Nasri was presented with an improved contract 2yrs into his 4yr contract. Even though an obvious talent, his output was average. So basically we would have done what that writer was blaming the management for.

On Bendtner, I guess its the way the cookie crumbles. There is no way in Pat Rice's dark shades he will see no. 9 when vP is fit. I have to say when he was called upon though a la 2 seasons ago he did deliver.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fans Thread (for Arsenal Fans) by slimshay(m): 8:54am On Jun 16, 2011
^^^In that scenario we have 2 front men in RVP and Chamahk, this 'can also play upfront' guys are talking about Gervinho, I dunno about o. I've not really seen him play alone upfront like we seem to do in away games.

That said, I seem to be the only one who thinks letting Bendtner go is a loss. At his age, some tops strikers in Europe now were 'nowhere' to be found.

He might not be as good as he thinks he is, but IMO better than most people are willing to admit. Playing him wide has not really worked for him either.

All said and done though Gervinho is a better player.

^^^In the face of contrary statistics you are repeating that same old tired 'liability' cliche. He was the best defensively! I do agree he doesn't offer a lot upfront.

@Debo, he does have problem with positioning same as Gibbs, perhaps something with our system. Ass-Cole didn't seem to have it though.

However since it seems like common wisdom defense is our problem, why replace with Baines though fantastic upfront isn't so much at the back. Luis Enrique seems to be solid behind but doesn't do much upfront. I think however that's because guitterez doesn't most of the attack in front of him.

If pressed for it though, I'd go for Baines. Goals is the name of the game. Although whoever is in front of him has to work a lot harder to cover when he goes upfront.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fans Thread (for Arsenal Fans) by slimshay(m): 8:32pm On Jun 14, 2011
Hey Debo, I know you've been a bit critical of Clichy. I stumbled on this article doing the numbers, quite objective in my opinion.

http://www.anfieldindex.com/2685/liverpool-fc-transfer-scouting-stats-left-backs.html

Personally I deduce he needs to do better going forward. But according to their numbers he comes tops defensively.

Personally I think Clichy gets more criticisms than he should.

160,000 for Nasri, nigba ti ko ya weyrey grin

Gervinho is quite the player. Dont know how he'll rate as a lone striker though.  undecided

Second year in a row, Cesc Fabregas best assit per minute, best chance created per minute in the 5 top leagues of Europe. I shake my head at people saying we should let him go. tongue

Oh wait. . . .hold up.

You moaners are becoming pathetic.

Anyone who thinks Cesc is not fully committed when he steps across the white line doesn't know jack.

@proudly can you please check your woe-mongering. Its becoming ridiculous.

Here is our best player talking about fighting on as a professional and all you can bring out is he said 'we lack ambition?'
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fans Thread (for Arsenal Fans) by slimshay(m): 2:19pm On Jun 10, 2011
@v3 you no well cheesy. We just bid £16m for a 19 year old. That joke is already losing its color. wink

And all this Cesc was poached is hogwash, the only reason they are jizzing themselves now is because he came good. They had an array of players ahead of him. So they let him leave willingly.

Nobody made a peep when he was a teenager in our team against them in Paris.
