Arsenal Banter Archive May 22 2015

We've certainly hit silly season at a gallop.

Media are in a frenzy of completely made up crap in the hope that it will create friction and thereby more stories - this way the reprters can fill columns all day with no effort and not leaving their desks.

IMO if Wenger is making noises about a contracted player like Sterling then he's just having a laugh and at the same time trying to disrail other teams transfer strategies.
No doubt we will soon get 100 posts a day from the voice ot transfer reason or Malaga as he's known (inter alia).

Was good to see Theo looking stronger, faster and more involved against Sunderland.

I'd much rather we just went at a canter or a trot...

Wish wenger would shut his trap with all this sterlin talk (not that I want him) but if he is going to try and get him it'll make it harder for us

22 May 2015 19:23:42
Are you being serious?

22 May 2015 20:03:47
Yes, why

22 May 2015 21:00:29
It seems like you are bothered by something Wenger has said when he's simply answered some questions when asked by reporters, where he indicated the other party may be more responsibly for what was happening, as in his agent.

What are you referring to?

22 May 2015 22:17:21
The ones that he has said he's a player that interests arsenal and he admires

22 May 2015 22:56:02
He didn't actually say that mate he just batted off the usual stupid questions, he said he would be bidding for players and basically said what ever I say you'll take it as the opposite as in:

Wenger said: “I do not like to lie. If I say I will and I don’t do it, you will say I lied.”

Like I said giving the press the run around at the start of silly season. Just ignore the 5h1te they twist mate.

Personally, I think jelfy, who's a real peoples' person as we all know, should be left to handle our transfer business, and press conferences for that matter.

23 May 2015 10:05:30
That was a quick break saint

'All our players want to stay here at Arsenal this summer. I have no concerns at all.'

It was Yaya's birthday this week.

Did any of you send a card and cake?

No?

Shame on you :-)

22 May 2015 17:51:08
I've bought him a balloon door

22 May 2015 21:01:41
He certainly doesn't need cake, if he got fit and lost some weight imagine how awesome he really could be.

23 May 2015 08:51:42
I did my part mate. I sent him this image card:

The s*n reporting Barca to bid £50m for Rambo! Fantastic player imo and has always given 110% on pitch. Tough call for Wenger lose a good young player or cash in! I'd prefer to have him tbh, what do the rest of you think?

22 May 2015 09:22:02
But look at the original source of the story, I distmist it straight away when I saw which paper had printed it.
If they said it was going to rain all all day long I wouldn't bother taking a coat out with me

22 May 2015 11:47:00
A few different papers are reporting it G62, not that that makes it any more credible

22 May 2015 12:11:33
Fair play perfect mate I read in a gossip column who credited it to the lowest of the low scandle peddler but if others are saying it too then possibly some truth

22 May 2015 12:26:15
Tell em 50m plus Messi and it's a deal. Seriously, we finally have the money to stop selling our best players, we better stop selling them...

22 May 2015 12:58:49
If its in the current bun it is total bull sheet. Barca have a transfer ban haven't they.

{Ed001's Note - until January.}

Strange that Xavi retired a couple of days ago and now Ramsay is linked. That is all it is, although the Ramsay off form I would sell for 50 million. The Ramsay on form is worth more

22 May 2015 16:35:14
Amazing isn't it. Imagine if someone said 3 years ago we wouldn't want to sell Rambo for 50 million lol

So lots of positivity of late. Last season we had 79 pts, this season maximum is 75 pts. If results are truly all that matters then surely it should be doom and gloom again?

Which brings me to the next point. I know everyone on here is hysterical about winning the league every year. I personally would rather wait 3 or 4 more years and win it our way, with our players, than give in to the money hungry ways of our competitors.

It will be much more satisfying to see Ramsey, Wilshire, Theo, Gibbs, Giroud, Coq, Ox etc. on the podium lifting the trophy than it would be to watch Cech, Sterling, Schneiderlin, Cavani, and who knows who else. Even if it take a bit longer.

Bottom line is that if we try to compete with chelsea, city and united we will always be struggling. We need to play our own way and run our club our own way.

All this said, I think with 0 signings we could win the league next year. Peace.

But there's no guarantee Jack Theo and co will ever become our joint managers and get the chance to make us champions by doing what it takes in reality opposed to a romantic fantasy world that will never happen.

22 May 2015 23:06:12
Never any guarantees in the Premier League
