It's pathetic mate. AW will not discuss how Barca deal with us, yet he is so much worse. Just py the f***ing money or surely you aren't interested. Typical that every year we hear we were in for someone but it never came off. Why is that? Because that was the intention the entire time. 'If we show willing then maybe the fans will get off our backs'. Wrong.

It is embarrassing for a club of the size to be so stingy in regards to paying money that we can't sign any of the above players who would have been making a step up in their careers.
Also we won't pay transfers fees but we'll give Bendtner £55k a week?

Step up? Dunno about that...I (as a fan) consider Arsenal to be a big club, but at the same time, we havent won anything for a long time, and those players would be leaving 'winning' clubs. Gotze won the bundesliga and is in the champions league (in our group as it happens).
We dont have buying power, and actually, we never have.

Arsenal never went for Honda, it was a rumor started by an arsenal message board, that just showed how much crap people believe over the interent. Twitter was hilarious that day.

I agree Twitter was a joke that day. apparently Kevin Davies read that he was in London at the Emirates on transfer deadline day, but he was on holiday that day as well, abroad.

Wenger failed with a deadline day bid for Marvin Martin. a bid of 12 million was made.
the next time he better does his business earlier because no one wants to lose impact players just before the transfer window closes... that in mind, Wenger must be pretty naive and / or stupid...

So apparently we made bids for MMM, Mario Goetze, Hazard and Elia.
Surely this means our team is seriously seriously under-par considering who we were bidding for?

Get off AW's back and back the team. If you are going to call someone stupid then at least write correct English
Stop moaning and start supporting the team and manager. Sure that would have a huge impact on everything "Arsenal"

@ last comment: are you mad? I'd say my english is correct mate... but if you think you can speak or write german as well as i do speak and write english, then let's do it...

Shut up mate, we all have the right to our opinions and if you're happy with signing 4 or 5 unplanned unproven non-set-the-world-alight signings when we've let go of fabregas and nasri and more to the point were promised replacements then suits you, but the rest of us aren't happy and we have every right to say so. It doesn't mean we won't support the team or have faith so stop taking whatever he gives you like candy and gospel and actually assess the situation and realise we've been taken for absolute mugs again and again.

1- He is German and his written English is not bad.
2- I take it that your German is spot on...putting you in a lofty position to throw rocks at all who fall short of your enviable standards!
3- Do you believe the following statement is a good read "at least write correct English" ?
4- What happened to fullstops?
5- You'll find a comma is missing.
6- "Sure that would have a huge impact on everything "Arsenal": Not very clear...is it?
7- Apart from the most blinkered zealots: Everyone else can see Arsene and the board have lost the plot and are truly rudderless.
8- P.Merson, M.Keon, F.McLintock and L.Dixon love the club with passion. If you cut them in half, you'll see the word "Arsenal" printed on the sliced section. Do you believe they are wrong in criticising Arsene, just stopping short of calling him an idiot? Surely, they must be plastic supporters and don't know what they are talking about!
9- If Arsene jumps off a cliff, taking Arsenal with him...would you follow him? or would you try everything in your power to head off this disaster?
10- Who is is the true supporter...Is it the one who follow blindly? or the one who wings when when thing go wrong? or maybe the one who actively tries to intervene when things go wrong?
Support you club in your way and let others support in their way. We all have the best interest of the club at heart.

Ess toot meer lite.
I was a little light on the commas and excessive on the full stops perhaps.
Just cheers on the Arsenal as the players need us and let's try and stop the negativity on the web as it is not good for the club that we "support."
AW signed experienced players and perhaps he should have signed a creative player, however it's too late now and we will struggle to sign players as City etc have deeper pockets than us.

Difficult to respect anyone who moans about someone's English.
This is a football forum not spelling and grammar forum.

To be honest I'm glad that we did get thrashed last week(although it wasn't very nice at the time),this must show Wenger that he has to invest heavily into the team,he cannot rely on kids.Nowadays the Premier league is a squad game,where if you are a big team,you have good players to replace injured players,we have nothing.But what the hell was Wenger thinking about,leaving it all till the last minute,nobody will let their best players go last minute.Arteta being the exception I surpose(but he's 29 and injury prone).
