Eds if Arsenal do sign tamura asano, do you see Arsenal signing a second striker this summer?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed002's Note - It would not be a surprise.}

29 Jun 2016 22:06:56
Never heard of this fella, checked him out on YouTube (I know I know) but he looks quick as hell and a neat finisher

But

Would it be another shirt sales signing? (Park chu yong) spelling.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - Arsenal don't get the money from shirt sales.}

29 Jun 2016 22:07:53
I hope so, the team needs a player that can have an impact straight away. But I know nothing about takuma asano, I'v never even heard his name so you never know wenger might pull one out.

that seems strange ed, so is it just the case of getting the club brand out there even further?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - No, the club are interested in the player.}

If we sign this player, I can't see us signing a second striker. Although it could be a signing to encourage Japanese fans to support Arsenal and provide the income from the sales of official Arsenal merchandise, including shirt sales. It isn't the type of signing us fans want.

Personally, I would like to see us make a big effort to sign Lukaku, who may be expensive, but is a proven goal scoring PL striker and at 23 has the benefit of a possible high sell on fee in the future. The prices of top players looks likely to explode this summer, with unproven or players that are not top quality now being sold for £30m+. It appears that £50+ will be the cost of top players, plus wages to match.

It would sum us up 69.

A fan called Joe Hart has received abuse on his social media account by mistake, the thing that amazes me is that anyone would go to the all the trouble of abusing the real Joe Hart, its not as though he deliberately let his country down or just didn't bother to try and stop the goals.
He will know more than anyone how poor he was so what is the point in trying to make him feel even worse than he already does.

Hart should stop stupid adverts he gets enough money concentrate on his proper job

If he wants a tv career naff off to Hollywood.

That's a fair comment Banbury mate but still doesn't excuse people for abusing him through a keyboard that if they met him in the street one to one would probably shake his hand and ask for s selfie.

Higuain to spark the Striker Merri-go-round?
(sadly I struggle to see us signing him. )

Zlatan -> Man UTD
Higuain -> PSG
Cavani -> Chelsea
Diego Costa -> Juventus
Morata -> Morata Swap to Dortmund
Aubameyang - > Real Madrid
Benzama -> China :P

Arsenal to sign:
Like-a-new-signing

*This is satire.

When Giroud bags a hattrick on the final day and follows it up with a goal at the euro's, plus Bendtner being a free agent, Akpom back from loan and Yaya Sanogo about to hit peak form, the striker 'situation' is one that I'm keeping in my mind for when 4-5 strikers who would improve us, move clubs and we have to hear 'we did not know X was available' or 'We tried, but the finances were not right'.

Agree2 Disagree0

29 Jun 2016 13:13:20
Wow already time to revise!

Zlatan -> Man UTD
Higuain -> PSG
Cavani -> Juventus
MICHY -> Chelsea
Remy -> Marseille
Diego Costa -> China
Aubameyang - > Real Madrid
Benzama -> MLS

**Working for a Tabliod is hard work!

Wenger put in a bid for Vardy, which goes to show he acknowledges we need a striker.

Watch this space I guess.

29 Jun 2016 19:47:11
The contrast between this summer's all out genuine attempt to get what we need is very welcome after last summer's have hearted attempt to land a player who never had any intention of joining us and never pretended he felt differently.

I think it's great news that Tony Adams is back at the club, working with the youth players.

Henry and Adams, could this be the future management team.

Believable2 Unbelievable0

29 Jun 2016 11:25:57
I think it's a very good deal for all involved.

Tony gets some experience as a coach and mentor, as his managerial career has been less than stellar thus far, the youth players get to listen and learn from a man who pretty much bled Arsenal during his time (and I'd imagine still does! ) and has read, written, co-author'd and published the books on defending.

I read once that Arsene is very stubborn in training and doesn't like his coaches trying to change or have massive input on his training regimes, apparently it took months before he accepted any input from Steve Bould (I wouldn't take that as gospel, what we read and what is true are usually different these days) so, it might be beneficial that Tony can get his hooks into the youngsters, where there's more chance for his input to be listened to and learnt.

All I want now is Bergkamp back in some capacity and a visit or two from Lehmann and we'd have a dream worthy coaching staff.

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jun 2016 16:00:42
Swap Lehmann to Seaman D, and I would say that's about spot on.

Did you all know that the Lion mascot that the England players were trying to keep hold of had Joe Hart as the loser.
He dropped it in the first 7 seconds!

Just wanted to share this with you all.
Mrs Lanesra
"You do know it's our 25th wedding Anniversary (silver) on the 28th June? "
Me
" Yes of course"
Mrs Lanesra
" I will cook a nice meal couple of bottles of champagne and we can go away for a couple of days next week "
Me
" that's a good idea I will book somewhere nice ".
So hotel is booked etc . and last night the meal is cooked beautifully and the drinks are on the table very lovely. Picture it!
Mrs Lanesra
" I've just thought "
Me
"What's that? "
Mrs Lanesra
" We got married in 1992 we've only been married for 24 years NOT 25! "
Has anybody else got a wife as thick as mine.?
Answers below please LOL.

{Ed001's Note - you do realise you didn't notice that it was 24 as well?}

29 Jun 2016 08:16:01
Ed 01.
My answer to that is this.
If they want to stand there with their hands out every week for the housekeeping money the least I can expect is for her to be able to count the years she has been doing it .
LOL.

Agree1 Disagree1

{Ed001's Note - women only remember the bad things, the number of times you forgot, the one time you didn't put out the bin etc. That she will remember for 500 years, just so she can throw it back in your face when needed. The good stuff she won't remember, because she can't use that in an argument.}

29 Jun 2016 08:16:06
Haha exactly Ed :-)

29 Jun 2016 11:20:52

{Ed001's Note - sadly so.}

29 Jun 2016 12:44:12
Lanesra, that's hilarious aha! No idea how you made it all the way to the meal before either of you realised. You've got to better that next year for your actual silver anniversary now.

Happily married then Ed? LOL.

Women have a special place in there brains where they store what I like to call argument check mates.
As soon as you start winning they will go there and pull one out.

And if that fails they start crying, which straight away starts making us apologise.

Did anybody notice how lively our England players were on TV when they left the hotel to step onto the coach to bring them home.
Shame that they didn't have the same training before they got on the pitch.
