Re: ***The Official Arsenal "Gunners" Thread***

I could see both RVP and Adebayor leaving and TBH, we're not horrible without them because of our depth at the position. As soon as Bendtner shut his mouth and focused on playing, he was solid and Walcott is getting better although he really needs to stay injury free. Eduardo if fully fit will be good and Vela is a talent that will be so so good.

I do hope Wenger signs a good young keeper prospect and a defender. I think we are going to win something big next season my fellow Gunners fans. I just feel it

I hope so. Arsenal has definitely assembled a lot of great young talent, the question is all whether or not they'll stay healthy and whether or not the defense can be shored up. If the Vermaelen signing is true, than that is a step in the right direction.

Welcome Yup we are pretty hardcore here for Gooners fans.

Now, onto business. If the Vermaelen signing is indeed happening, then I am very happy because our guys like Gallas and Toure aren't getting any younger.

There are rumors going around that Real might be making a bid for Clichy.....stay tuned on that one. I would hate to lose him for sure because without him the final weeks of the season, we weren't the same defensively.

I am preordering the new away kit as I type this

I'm a huge Clichy fan. I would hate to see him go. I'd be really surprised if Arsene sold him considering how loyal he usually is. Especially with players that have been there for a long time like Clichy.

I would be fine with Adebayor going. I'm not completely sold that he truly wants to be here. If Milan want to pay a high fee for him, then let them have him. I would love to see David Villa in red and white, but that's just not a Wenger move. Kun Aguero from Atletico Madrid is another guy i'd like to see up front. Those guys would demand a huge transfer fee so I'm likely just dreaming, but it'd be nice. We'll likely just resign RVP and Bentdner (even though i despise him). Xabi Alonso would be the only "big name" transfer that i could legitimally see happening.

I also have the new away kit pre ordered. Also just received my Highbury Bergkamp kit from eBay last week. Love it!

Re: ***The Official Arsenal "Gunners" Thread***

I agree on Adebayor - I like him, but he's becoming too streaky for my own liking. He plays great for a month, then goes AWOL for the next 2 - there doesn't seem to be a middle ground for him. If Milan or whomever were to offer in excess of 20 million, I'd take it and so would Wenger.

I actually find that midfield is the least of our worries along with striker. Between Fabregas, Denilson, Song, Ramsey and Wilshere, we've got a lot of depth. I'd be happy to see Diaby go though.

Alonso would be good, but I don't think he's going anywhere after his solid season.

I'm not worried right now...2010 will be the year Wenger's kids will deliver Glad you like your new Highbury kit

Re: ***The Official Arsenal "Gunners" Thread***

This would be my Football Manager Arsenal moves for this summer.

-Sell Adebayor
-Sell Van Persie
-Sell Gallas
-Sell Diaby
-Buy a cheap experienced striker
-Buy Lorik Cana
-Buy Per Mertesacker
-Buy Sergio Romero or Guillermo Ochoa

Make the First XI look something like this:
-----------Ochoa/Romero----------------
Sagne------Toure-------Mertesacker--------Clichy
---------------Cana---------------------
Walcott-----------------------Nasri-------
----------------------Fabregas------------
---------Arshavin-----------------------
-----------------------Bendtner-----------

Subs
Eboue
Eduardo
Vela
Wilshere
Gibbs
Song
Ramsey
etc

I would love to watch that team play. I still hope we buy Cana this summer, having him just stay in our half and free up space for Cesc would be so amazing to watch. Cesc had to track back way too much with Song and Denilson as his midfield partner.

Did anybody hear the rumor that Citheh is willing to offer 15 million pounds for Kolo?

No way Citeh can be that stupid.

I don't know of any other place to put this, but LOL @ Spurs kits for next season.



I liked their kits this season actually, but these are just hideous.

Re: ***The Official Arsenal "Gunners" Thread***

Both teams have historically used yellow change kits...

Re: ***The Official Arsenal "Gunners" Thread***

Yeah, both usually have yellow kits.

In fact, the yellow one is the only one I actually like from Spurs. I don't like the yellow accents on the white or the blue.

Funny that Sp*rs should come up -- My brother-in-law (claims he is a Sp*rs fan) is down for the weeked and he ran out of clean shirts. He asked if he could borrow one... so I come back with a bright red Arsenal T and tell him to take it or leave it.

BTW, he took it, hence "claims he is a Sp*rs fan"...

He'll thank you later.
