Hey guys
Well I've flown from Australia to London to watch us play reading tomorrow and my ticket agency has sent an email during the flight to tell me that they now can't get the tickets.

So I ask/beg any of you guys on here if you have 1 or 2 tickets (so the mrs can come too) that you are willing to part with or know someone who might, I will pay good money for them but I am desperate. this would be making a gunners dream come true. I don't know if I will get another chance to see them live for the extended foreseeable future.

My last trip 3 years ago I had tickets to the snowed out Bolton game so I'm feeling quite shattered at the moment.

Help a brother out if you can. Please

who thinks arsenal will win silverware next
season

Believable6 Unbelievable18

Good optimism everyone. Way to keep the spirits up.

Agree2 Disagree0

Arsenal to win fa cup and finish second in the league next year. There is really not that much between second and sixth. And we have the most improvement in us.

If we grab jovetic, wayanma and a cb in the summer transfer window, then after their "gel in" season we will push on further the following one and be real title contenders.

what are the odds of jovetic signing for arsenal

Believable2 Unbelievable8

10-20%

The reason its over 10% is because that Italian agent has me thinking.

. but don't get your hopes up as Arsene rates Giroud (i do too, just not as our no1 strike option)

Why do we not go for kasper schmeichel young and absolute quality

I like him but as nobody seems interested in him, the scouts must have some concerns.

Fairplay to the NextGen kids. Two quality and exciting young teams. Kudos to Chelsea though. Gnabry, what a player! Think he shd go on loan to an EPL side for a season.

Just watched the NextGen game. Lost 4-3 in extra time.

3/4 players too look out for lads

Serge Gnarby - Amazing talent and so young. He reminds me off 'THE OX' but dare I say better.

Hector B- Great talent, Barca missed a trick! He's insane, great going forward and backwards.

Elsfield-Brought him for dirt cheap. Usually a really good player but had a poor game today, dissapointed with him today. (tbh)

Akpom-This kid just bangs in goals for fun! I would give him a chance on the bench. He's better then most of out 2/3 rate stikers Eg. Benik Afobe, Criminaldner, Park Chu Young etc.

Believable7 Unbelievable2

I thought Yenarris was empressive in the first half too. Sad to think most of these youngsters will not get half the chances the likes of Denilson and Bendtner got.

Agree7 Disagree2

Shame a bit more luck and we would of gone through but I do agree with your 4 choices I also thought ansah did well as well when he came on

Yen was decent in the later stages of the game however he's not prem quality. NPower his max club for example Brighton, Mid etc

The gall on Van Persie, that person. So we made him go gray?

Perhaps we win some damn trophies if he isn't made of glass. Maybe in the big games, a la AC Milan last season, he does the job and scores the tap in.

Year after year we stick by that and he leaves and now blames us as a source of his problems. Unbelievable!

Imagine a club being able to depend on their first choice striker to play 35 matches EVERY season. Imagine that Robin.

If I had even a shred of respect left it's gone.

Believable23 Unbelievable6

So you didn't read it properly, he didn't blame Arsenal, he blamed not winning the title. I get you hate him which is fair enough but you are misquoting him.

Well put US Gooner. Class on the pitch. Shame about off it.

AJH,

Perhaps he, in all his time here, and not just the last 18mos, could have done more to win the damn title

Can't wait for April 28th, just hope he plays to see what reception he gets.

who thinks steven jovetic has world class potential and is as good as rvp or a bit less

Believable14 Unbelievable3

Never scored more than 15 in a season. Terrible for a striker!

I swear, a player's name gets mentioned then.

"I hope we sign Jovetic".

"Jovetic is class!"

You people are a laugh. Dozens better than him. You can talk all day about how he is 23. Not good enough. We need the finished article now.

Agree8 Disagree5

He plays just off the striker! Chill the **** out! He is a very skilful player who is big on the rise! For a centre forward to scores around one goal every 2 games is a great feet! His link up play would be brilliant, a better cf than caz

Agree3 Disagree5

He scores 12 goals because he was injured one month. And Also because he is not the central striker.

Agree0 Disagree0

1) I am chilled out. Was I overly aggressive? You're the one with all the exclamation marks hanging out of your response.

2) Cazorla is a CAM. So. Yeah. LOL.

watching Arsenal in the nextgen series 1 up playing well only problem stuart robson co-commentating has nothing good to say about Arsenal what's his problem it's not as if he was world class himself

Limerick Gunner

Believable6 Unbelievable2

We r losing! players r poor

Agree4 Disagree4

I thought he had been dropped from commentating, he hates AW for some reason.

He needs to get over it.

Agree6 Disagree0

He does hate Wenger, spoke to him a few times at the emirates, never said a good word about Wenger.
I put on here a couple of years ago, that he said wengers not even a good coach.
Ive got to be honest, I've always stuck up for Wenger, but I can't anymore.
If only he wasnt so arrogant, and listened to others, I might change my mind.

We need a holding player and a box to box player to replace diaby capoue and Vidal would great additions to
The squad

Believable4 Unbelievable3

We have enough box to box midfielders a holding midfielder and a cam would be nice

After Pires has allegedly said we need a core of British players in the team, would anyone else like to see us sign fraser forster, Ashley Williams, Nathaniel Clyne and possibl. Defoe for a couple of seasons? Or is it just me?

Believable2 Unbelievable19

Don't quite understand that, the main English invincible's was Cole, Campbell and Parlour. The other English players didn't play that much like Keown.

We have had regulars this season in Walcott, Wilshere, Gibbs with Jenkinson playing a lot and occasionally the OX.

Agree1 Disagree2

You have absolutely lost the plot, williams is a welsh international (fair enough born in england), jenkinson a capped ENGLISH international right back is in our ranks, defoe plays for our biggest rivals and is too old (also we have theo another ENGLISH international). Personally don't think forster is good enough for arsenal and I am a celtic fan as well as arsenal fan so I wach him every week

Yes, its just you Cd, because Clyne is not available.

Wouldn't be suprised to see Diaby retire in the next 2 seasons if his injuries keep popping up.

Just read in the sun Robert pires moaning about arsenal and saying the difference between arsenal when he was there and now is they had a English core in the team. He says that we need to buy experienced English players in the summer. My problem is what English players do you buy

1. that would Want to come to arsenal because if they are at arsenals level they are properly at a big club.

2. If they want to come to arsenal are they going to improve the team. I mean Liverpool for the last few season have been buying English players that are on the verge of playing for England or are in and out of the squad and look where they are.

For me it's all good saying buy English players but I personally don't think for what arsenal need to get them up to the next level and the sort of English talent that is around it ain't going to help us reach it.

The only English player at the moment that I would buy if he does become available in the summer is Rooney.

Reply and let me know what your thoughts are on this subject.

I wouldn't have rooney,, but the onlt decent englishmen I think we could attainn would be richards. Plus we already have an english core and in 2-4 years they will be the core of england aswell!

I'd have Rooney

Unbelievable to think we sold vela and bought giroud

CheetahChaz97

Believable10 Unbelievable25

It kills me to hear gunners say stuff like that bout giroud his first season at the club with a decent return on goals and assists next season judge him give him a chance man. Vela didn't get enough of a run granted but was he arsenal quality? Leave giroud alone he could end up being a beast for us

Agree17 Disagree0

I respect your point that its only his first season and he may prove me wrong and turn out to be an absolute tank, its not that I criticise his work rate as he puts in shift after shift but I think if we're realistic of winning premier leagues in the near future giroud is not of the world class calibre striker needed. This doesn't mean I think carlos is world class, but I certainly think he could have finished quite a few of the chances that giroud's been given this season i. e. away at Liverpool, away at chelsea, home to sunderland etc. I also think that vela's quick feet complimented by his finishing gives him the edge over giroud's slow running and abysmal finishing in big matches.

CheetahChaz97

Agree2 Disagree3

Give him a chance see how he does next year.

He has a better return from his first season than RVP did and Drogba did for chelsea.
