How different would our last 4 years have been if in 2010 we'd paid Barcelona 24 million for Yaya Toure?
It would have cost us a lot in wages cakes cards and candle's admittedly but would we have been champions?

Lets not go there, into the ' if we have signed this player ' subject. there's a lot of them in that category.

Fair comment Treble but was watching motd 2 and they were showing just how much city don't work without him and got me thinking back in 2010 what if?
So many players who would never have left plus a strong exceptionally good CMF ummm, we could have contenders kid

Apparently we actually had Toure on trial at the start of his career, and Harry Kane was with us until he was 12, there's a couple of interesting "apparent" facts!

I thought he only had a year with us from the age of 8, before going to Watford and then spurs at 11?

Not 100% sure, this came from my gf's 12 year old son who incidentally was at Arsenal from 5 -12 years and just decided to leave - bloody kids!

He's a cracking CB btw

Has he just given up on football 337? make him do a weeks work expierience in an office or labouring and see if he comes back with any more commitment knowing what life could end up like

Noooo he lives and breathes football, he plays for his school, the district and with his mates over the park, unfortunately he has signed for Southend. The issue at arsenal was that the kids are not really made to feel part of the team anymore, when Brady was in charge he used to give them time and make them feel like part of the club.

In 7 years he never met AW once, they train in walthamstow and don't meet the players, very sad really, plus he's a Manu supporter!

I also don't think I can make him work in the office he's 12! And bare in mind they don't get paid a penny and he trains ad plays pretty much every day

What on earth made him do that 337?

9.) 10 Feb 2015
I think because he was at Arsenal for so long he got bored with it, at Southend he is already playing up with the 13-14 year olds so has a real chance of making it as a pro, I did'nt realise how hard these youngsters work, they train and play 3-4 times a week all over the country and have to do written work after the games as well, plus buy there own boots etc. and pay to go on trips etc, just hope he makes it that all (albeit he's a manu fan)

Best of luck to him 337!
