Hahaha this is hilarious, u are really angry about all this ain't ya.

Chill out fella, it's not your team and it will effect u in no way in your plans going forward I'm guessing.

U just signed a young Asian for a few mill so I guess your made up.

Hi Chris

I don't get people getting so hung up on players values

The market is what it is.

Agree2 Disagree1

11 Jul 2016 20:59:39
If a club can afford it I can't see how it's a bad thing, the money being put towards the team the fans care about rather than towards a ranch in America.

I've got no interest in other teams. But 100million for pogba? I mean he's good, but he is a bit over hyped. He's nowhere near the best player in the world, not even the best midfielder. He, in my opinion, isn't worth any more than 50mill, even in today's market.

Per Mert. 2 bob and an orange.

Did Chris just tell someone else to show more interest in their own team? You're the most frequent poster on this site.

Hi Eds and everyone i heard man u are getting rid of Mata I for 1 would love him St our club what are your thoughts.

Believable0 Unbelievable4

{Ed001's Note - do you really need him??}

11 Jul 2016 16:45:32
How many Attacking midfielders are we supposed to field exactly.

False 9
False 1
False 3

List goes on.

As much as i'd like to have him for squad depth he can only actually play a limited role in a team, ineffective on the wing and can't contribute enough defensively to operate in a traditional CM role sufficiently, he wouldn't knock Ozil out of the pocket position imo.

Then again I maintain we should have brought Fabregas back when we had the chance, they're both simply quailty footballers, having said that cesc can play deeper than mata.

Do you think you could get by with just a poster of him on your bedroom door Steve! Just cut his head of and stick it on a picture of an arsenal player.

What happened with Isasc Hayden? Thought he was one of our more promising youngsters.

Has just signed for Newcastle on a 5 year contract.

Yeah, found that a bit surprising. Was he not up to par?

Arsenal fans over hyped another player? Never!

Another 1 of wengers failed youth players

Our youth policy, which we was told was the route we were taking has been a disaster.

11 Jul 2016 18:16:28
Agree malaga, wilshere is though only true academy product we've produce. And even he is a devisive figure at that.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jul 2016 19:49:06
Still we can always buy players with potential.

Agree1 Disagree0

12 Jul 2016 00:22:51
To be fair seems the whole countries youth system and academies are failing not just ours. They just can't cut it at the moment. And that's not just the clubs fault. Do the fans have the patience for someone to break into the team now? We're crying out for Arsene to buy a cf and how mad would we be if he said I can't it'll hinder the progress of say akpom. I know this is just one way of looking at it from many scenarios but some of these comments got me thinking.

Not going to lie.

Watching Man Utd's transfer activity is extremely painful!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

11 Jul 2016 12:06:41
Not bothered about Zlatan or Pogba (possibly) , but Mkhitaryan, oh the pain.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jul 2016 13:09:42
Miki is SO SO good. That one is painful. Pogba would wind me up as well.

I feel for the players currently in that squad.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jul 2016 15:00:39
That's what happens when a club strive to be the biggest and best . And realise that after 3 years of crap something needs to be done so it gets done. Not even in champs league and still pulling the worlds best players. And it feels worse been an arsenal fan when we're fighting for scraps.

Cant wait to the end of the season to see where man u finish.
Guarantee its no different to lvg's tenure, jose has been found out well we'll see don't shoot the stoned messeneger lol, This is what the wacky backy does to you.

Agree0 Disagree1

11 Jul 2016 18:18:04
Not fussed about anyone but miki.

He'll really suit United and Mourinho. I think he's the player LVG wanted Depay to be.

I'd be weary of Rooney under Jose also.

Deride him all you want but I could see a dramatic resurgence under him.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jul 2016 18:29:07
If utd get Pogba will be some asset that's for sure, OK at the Euros he didn't look totally outstanding but did Ranaldo or Bale? And they cost 80 + million when 80+ million was, well 80 + million.
If we signed him I wouldn't care less if he cost £100 million or 100 pence, the boy is going to be an absolute huge success where ever he goes.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jul 2016 09:49:57
Going back to my Pogba rant earlier.
If you were judging players on their performances in the Euros and Pogba
is supposedly worth £100 million.
How much would these players be worth.
Ramsey
Griezmann
Giroud
Bale
Koschielny
Sanches (Portugal 18 years old)
Sissoko
To name but a few .
Back to JIm Royle again
"£100 million? My arse ".

Believable0 Unbelievable0

11 Jul 2016 11:52:30
If you didn't know which player was going to be transfered for 100 mil from the euros and someone asked you to guess who, you would pick 20 players before you would have picked pogba. Good but not that good.

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Jul 2016 13:01:33
Steve. r
And many more before him mate!

11 Jul 2016 13:31:11
Only Manchester United are stupid enough to pay that sort of money for a player they sold for £850,000 a few years ago.

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Jul 2016 13:46:10
Dags obviously a marriage made in heaven. They are liked with matuidi, he is an all round better player for half that in my view. God i want kante though.

Agree0 Disagree1

11 Jul 2016 14:04:32
When United want one of your players, it's think of a number and double it. Juventus the latest in a long line of clubs to pull their pants down. 😂😂😂

A fool and his money are easily parted. 😉.

11 Jul 2016 15:02:36
I know red dog myhitaryan was only worth 13 million and them daft nuggets paid 26 for him lol.

11 Jul 2016 15:09:32
Agree Steve.

Spot on Red Dog.

(I think Wenger still looks in the mirror and chuckles to himself about Van Persie sale) (granted he won them the league) .

11 Jul 2016 16:14:32
Red, is that the mantra arsenal football club treat there fans with? ☺.

Agree0 Disagree1

11 Jul 2016 18:28:34
Agree steve. Not sure if he adds "game winning" to a team if you get me. I've never really seen him be the difference between two teams. Highly consistent with an all round ability and great age for someone so experienced though.

The 100m imo comes in because he is a global superstar imo. He's been touted as such since 19 and has been the focus of Juve since he moved there during the period of their resurgence. In every market stall around the world selling dodgy jerseys there's Ronaldo's Messi's and Neymar's name printed on the back. And pogba is alongside them. getting him in his prime years means prime image rights.

Also dags would I be right in saying they didn't sell him, he left and they were awarded compensation because he was under 23? That would make it all the sweeter. The million freebie!

SLB,

A release clause is a release clause, you got to get lucky sometime. 😉.

Listen 100 million is 100 million doesn't matter how you work it out .

11 Jul 2016 21:33:06
So that's why they got ripped off lol.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jul 2016 21:41:02
Gg yes I agree he isn't a game changer, like bale, messi, ronaldo, neymar etc. A lot of money for a very good midfielder. As I said earlier not sure he will go to man u, he wants madrid, I think he may stop at juve one more season then go to madrid.

Agree1 Disagree0

12 Jul 2016 08:43:40
SLB,

No mate, Micky Tarian is quality for the money, it's the other 200 signings they have paid way over the odds in fee and wages.

Like I said, you got to get lucky sometime. Di Maria, Fellatio, Falcao, Schweinsteiger, Martial, Herrera and more, over priced or over paid.

Seriously though I couldn't give a toss who they buy, loath the rancid club and everything about it.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jul 2016 00:06:29
Eds do you have any insight into the Sanchez saga? I understand he is disappointed but he for me is our best player and would be a major loss one I think would be out of our reach to replace! Cheers.

Surely Wenger can see how good giroud and griezman link up go get him and keep giroud and sing sissoko up too the mans a beast.
