That is why i am not worried
Adebayor is not an untouchable: Adebayor is good but wont be missed. Henry was great and Adebayor made us forget henry.Barca should just give us eto with cash and take adebayor grin. However i doubt adebayor will leave.

Gael clichy cool
Bacary Sagna cool

Sylvinho, giovanni van bronckorst, henry,marc overmars have gone to barcelona under wenger so there is no proof that adebayor wont go.
However, Look at how the barca fans have treated samuel eto. Booing him and taunting him because they claim he is now too big and misses crucial goals. if we were to do that in england, Adebayor would be long gone.

I have a feeling that adebayor will end up just like samuel eto because the spanish league is so racist even the spanish national coach,luis aragones is racist-remember when he called henry black monkey when he was trying to jeer reyes in training?. Moreover adebayor is also notorious for missing sitters and we still tolerate that in england but in spain he will be taunted and discriminated against. Remember some few years ago when the opposing team were calling samuel eto monkey and he wanted to walk off the pitch during the match? Even henry is encouraging samuel eto to leave and Adebayor wants to fall into thathuh Samuel eto is one of the few africans who has made a name for himself in the spanish league and look at him now-SPURS TARGET.

Adebayor will be great for barca if he goes but for how long ? Moreover i think barca might end up signing DAVID VILLA instead or better still we can give barca adebayor and collect samuel eto with 10 million from barca to top. grin

@ Vicade,

Don't bore me with this argument. First all, how many seasons did it take Drogba to score 33 goals in a season? Was he not bought for 24 million? It sometimes take some players time to bed in especially South Americans like Veron. You even went on to say Rooney is 23? C'mon mate, Rooney is 22 and he is a better player than Cesc or whoever at Arsenal. I saw Wayne Rooney light up the stage at Euro 2004. He was shouldering the responsibility of his country at the age of 18. Where was Cesc or Van Persie or all those mediocre players at Arsenal in 2004?


The mistake u are making here is u think it's all about goal-scoring. In your mind's eye, Adebayor is better than Dennis Bergkamp and Tevez is better than Solskjaer. For players like Rooney, what governs them is not goals but the ability to create. How many times would u see Rooney shooting straight at net when he's got a team-mate in a better position to score? However, Ronaldo will shoot from all sorts of angles. Most times he misses, sometimes he scores which explains his high goal tally this season. Compare Rooney's assists as a striker to Ronaldo's assist(winger) and lets analyse.

Saha scored 15 for Fulham before January transfer, it means Louis Saha scored 15 goals in 19 league games for a mediocre club like Fulham. What does that tell u? Is he prolific or not? I am not sure either Adebayor, Ronaldo or Torres had 15 by January this season despite their goal-crazed campaign. Did i just hear u say Adebayor is better than Van Persie? Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeesh********** that ends the argument. You have just poisoned my appetite to continue this.
CURRENT PERFORMANCE OF ACTIVE PLAYERS AND NOT REPUTATION OF SUCH PLAYERS COUNT.
RONALDINHO AND KAKA HAVE STRONG REPUTATION BUT HOW HAVE THEY PERFORMED THIS SEASON?

YAWNS-GOOD MORNING

@ Vicade,

Please, don't compare players the way u are harping about it. Sheeeesh* Veron wasn't a flop at Man Utd. He didn't stay long enough to realise his potentials. If Adebayor had left Arsenal last season, we would all be here saying he is crap. Veron spent only 2 seasons at Man Utd, i don't think that is enough to say he is crap. Wayne Rooney? Crap!!!! It seems u don't know your football. How old was Rooney at Everton? In a season Rooney got injured three different times, i wouldn't say he is crap. Last season, he scored the same goals as Ronaldo so what is your point?

Cesc Fabregas is talent and reh reh reh. . . It took him 4 years to be what he is today. How many goals did Cesc score last season and what was his contribution? If Cesc had left last summer, u won't be saying all these things. Ballack was labelled to be a massive flop but would u say that considering his contributions in the last few weeks? Are u saying Adebayor is now better than van Persie because RVP has never scored 15 league goals in his entire career? Rooney plays for the team, Ronaldo plays for himself. So now, u can list[b] Clichy, Toure [/b] and all those mediocre players in Arsenal as talents.

What about Torres, Van Nistelrooy, Rio, Essien,  Henry, Ronaldo, Zidane, Figo and other big money players?

@ Mc Omo,

Saha scored 20 league goals in 03/04 season. I'm sure he was close to 30 goals if u add FA cup and Carling cup goals. When Saha is fit, he delivers.
You seem to be very intelligent in soccer.

Spending 27 million on veron then having to wait two seasons for him to perform.
It is okay for rooney(23) to take time to develop in his homeland but not okay for cesc(21)
cesc is the young pfa player of the year and made the pfa team not rooney
cesc scored 13 goals and 24 assists in all competitions
MENTION JUST ONE SEASON ROONEY HAS SCORED 20 PREMIER LEAGUE GOALS? A striker is a striker because he/she is suppose to strike the ball into the net as often as possibe.-Cesc is a midfielder and don't compare cesc to ronaldo because ronaaldo is a genius.
Rooney plays for the team and that justifies why he has never scored 20 LEAGUE goals? The day all the strikers in the world start playinfg for the team i wonder where all the goals will come from(Not every team has ronaldo wink
ballack signed on a free transfer
Adebayor is better than RVP now because i judge on CURRENT PERFORMANCE AND NOT REPUTATION-Ronaldinho at his peak can easily be the best in the world but as at today and maybe tomorrow, ronaldinho is no better than a Rosicky based on current performance and not reputation.


All these your if this left,i f that left i have one for you.
IF RONALDO LEFT AFTER THE WORLD CUP INCIDENT OF SENDING WAYNE ROONEY OFF WHERE WILL UNITED BE?

Calling toure and clichy mediocre is funny because those two were part of the unbeaten team that won the premiership in 03/04 cheesy. Try eboue and bendtner.

Saha scored 15 goals for fulham. Signed in the january transfer window for man u in the same season and scored only five goals from january till the end of the season-OH what a star in a big team.

@ Vicade,

You cannot judge players like that. Both Rooney and Ronaldo are effective for Man Utd. They both need each other to function effectively. Adebayor was able to score 30 goals a season because he is the only focal point Arsenal has got. If he doesn't score, nobody else would. Put Saha in that position too with the same circumstances then he would score 30 goals or more. Granted, money might not guarantee success but NOT SPENDING money CAN NEVER guarantee success. Ferguson spent 60 million and he reaped the benefits, didn't he? Chelsea also acquired one of the best squads in Europe and they matched United toe to toe.
Ronaldo is more effective than rooney by far even though rooney cost twice as much.
Still waitning on saha
Talent is the most important thing and talent does not need to be expensive especially depending on how and when you apply it. It is like saying if wenger spends 25 million in the trasnfer window is that enough or does he need 50 million or 100 million or 200 million?

Veron was a flop for man u and he cost 27 million
Rooney has been in the league for 5 years since everton and has never scored 20 PREMIER league goals even though he  cost 25 million
shevchenko is the king of them all
Cesc fabregas did not cost anything and he is one of the best midfielders in the world today(where is the money factor in that? Talent is what is important and not most expensive player.)


How much did gael clichy cost?
How much did anelka cost when he joined arsenal(Hint: he was sold over 40 times his purchase value to real madrid wink)
How much did kolo toure cost?
How much did fabregas cost?
How much did adebayor cost?
How much did RVP cost?


i agree with you that Arsene wenger has to spend money of course but my point is that money is not the driving issue but talent is and TALENT DOES NOT  HAVE TO BE EXPENSIVE as seen in the players above grin

MOREOVER CHELSEA, MAN U AND LIVERPOOL HAVE FOREIGN OWNERS WHO KNOW NOTHING ABOUT FOOTBALL BUT RELY ON ADVISERS AND AS SUCH CAN SPEND OVER THE TOP WITH THEIR PERSONAL MONEY SINCE THEY OWN THE CLUB BUT ARSENAL HAS A bOARD OF DIRECTORS AND ALL THAT RUBBISH SO THE CASH AVAILAIBILITY IS DIFFERENT.

@ Rikkyjen,

What are u talking about here? Are u aware Arsenal charge the highest matchday ticket in the world? 95 pounds is what it costs a negro to watch a football match at the Emirates. Arsenal rakes 3 million every matchday excluding restaurant/food and drinks. A club making that much should be ready to splash money on world class players. Arsenal has to match their rivals in the transfer market to win the league title. The chances of Arsenal winning the title next season is slimmer than Debosky shagging Beyonce. grin No club can win the league title with kids like Ferguson did years ago. Look at Ajax and other clubs and tell me how they have fared with their kids. When big clubs come knocking their doors, selling clubs like Arsenal don't have a choice but to sell.
I hope you know that arsenal is in debt over this stadium and are still servicing the debt? Spurs and man city spent more money than arsenal in the last transfer window and see where they ended up. MY POINT IS THAT MONEY IS NOT ALWAYS THE SOLUTION. If money was always the solution then alex fergusson would have WON THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE MORE THAN ONCE IN 22 YEARS.

Galacticos of ronaldo and co post 2002 shows money is not always the answer and money does not gurantee trophies. Talent(youth and experience), Great managers(like wenger,,sir alex and del bosque) and a bit of GOOD LUCK guarantees trophies,  How much does talent costhuh  Well juan sebestian veron cost man u 27 million pounds and fabregas came free. Louis saha cost man u 15 million and adebayor cost 3 million? which is talent , which is cost effective you judge.

Ronaldo cost 12 million but is he not more effective than 25 million wayne rooneyhuh
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only (Old) by vicade(m): 11:22pm On May 16, 2008
FLAMINI left and will be replaced. Just because he had one good season does not mean he is god. I mean, it is just like saying let us pay bendtner 50k because he will score 20 goals next season like nobody expected adebayor to score 30. OR let us pay eboue 60K because he will be in the PFA team of the year next season like nobody expected bacary sagna to make it in his debut season.

VIERA PETIT OVERMARS ANELKA PIRES HENRY LJUNBERG REYES ASHLEY COLE EDU-All these guys left and were replaced so who the hell is flaminihuh

Flamini by the way only won the 2005 FA cup with arsenal. Most of the guys above are real champions and some legends. However, i wish flamini all the best in milan. smiley

If this is true,I think arsene wenger should buy him some ear blockers and he should stay indoors after training.

Eboue cost just over £1 m so there may be profit if he is sold now. Baptista was on loan and has since been adequately dispatched.
Kanu in his prime was one of the most technically gifted players ever.Kanu in Atlanta 96 was just genius especially those two goals against brazil-Top class technique. Kanu is almost 45 five years old now. Martins and Yakubu are like 30 years old so they have time to improve but not at the emirates.

I had much worries when the The french mafia left- henry,pires and viera left because those guys are winners.

AS per flamini , only time will tell if he will end up like DAVID Bentley of BLACKBURN or JOSE Antonio Reyes of ATHLETICO MADRID.
RomanceRe: Am The One Doing The Calling by vicade(m): 2:24pm On May 13, 2008
There was thia girl i was dating in nigeria. She never used to call. I send her credit and she still flashes.The closest she got to calling was sending texts and heavy flashing. I refused to call her for five days and she then called me and I told her i was broke which is why i could not call.All she could say was :JUST CALL ME BACK. I never did call her back and we broke up enventually

There is a girlfriend of mine, as long as she has credit she will call me when she is broke,she will go to call centre and call me. Whenever i send her credit she will use most of it to call me back and she also sends me credit. But it is like some girls are allergic to calling their bobos from call centres.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only (Old) by vicade(m): 2:00pm On May 13, 2008
Martins has good finishing,pace,shot,strenght and can be good in the air but his technique is completely zero. That is why Yakubu Aiyegbeni is preferable to me because yakubu has better technique though both of them are unfit to be gunners.

For definition of technique, Kanu is Technique.
