    Default Van Persie and Torres

    Just wanted to say ... in the time since Fernando Torres scored his last Premier League goal, Robin Van Persie has scored 19.

    19.

    No, we don't need to. It would be counter productive

    I thought it was a faze that Torres was going through but he REALLY looks bad nowadays and against Manure he was El Stinkio. Not only has his confidence gone but so has his pace. He's only 28 and his pace has already gone! I remember seeing a situation where it was him and Evans and Evans took the ball away from him like he was a 5 year old. He sometimes looks like he was running in a tar pit at times. BLOODY shocking how a man costing £50m can look so awful......

    I would say qudos to Liverpool for selling such garbage to Chelsea for so much, but they outdid themselves with that big lump, Carroll. Can you ever imagine Wenger pulling of such rubbish transfers, no way!

    I'll be able to laugh at this when Van Persie goes off to Barca/Real at the end of the season

    "There was some footage of Stewart where he was, from 30 yards away, kicking a ball into five different trash cans and it was brilliant. John and I said, 'Oh my God, this player is brilliant, we've got to figure out a way to make a deal with him.'"
    The American duo later discovered the footage had been doctored but the excitement at Downing’s arrival remained

    If he goes, there will be huge uproar from the fans if a replacement isn't signed and I think Matias Suarez or whoever could do a decent job.
    Formerly Bend it like Bendtner, Score it like Samir, Wank it like Wilshere and SamuraisShadow.

    And you'll still have a £50m striker who can't shoot for toffee.
    Against West Bromwich Albion on the 13th May 2012, that was Arsène's 600th EPL game. He has won more points (1,191) than Spurs have in PL history (1,086 from 772 games)

    If RvP were to leave, then i'd prefer a big name, someone who strikes fear into the opposition. No offence to Suarez, he's playing well for Anderlecht, but he isn't what we need. Assuming we get 35 million for RvP (he's not too far away from being 30. hence the low price), i'd prefer somebody like Edinson Cavani.

    this comparison is an insult to RVP

    for a £2.75m.. that deal is just sublime and all credit to AW for spotting the talent

    We only got him that cheap because he had disciplinary issues, and fell out with his old manager.

    He used to be really good at that, or at least his scouts did. Now everyone and their dog have an equally good scouting system and we find it much harder.

    He still is.
    You're posts are always soo negative.

    just a few recent examples...

    Vermaelen for £10m.
    Gervinho for £10m.
    Arteta £8m.
    Bakari Sagna £6m
    Mertesacker £7m
    Wojciech Szczęsny - free (or minimal payment).
    Adebayor for £7.5m.(sold for £26m)
    Nasri £12m (sold for £25m)

    Oxo will prove to be a massive bargain and I've got a feeling that when Joel Campbell gets his work permit he will prove to be an absolutely top class buy.

    This is proof that you can run a club successfully without throwing your money like it's water. It's just a shame that we live in times where the billionaire and the dodgy (Barca and Real), are kings. The problem is, to fully justify our model, we need to start winning stuff soon, otherwise our best players will continue to leave us. Hopefully with the fair play rules in place and with more investment from the tight wads up top, we will see a winning Arsenal again.

    Torres has scored 2 more goals against Chelsea than he has for them.
    Is bewaring of ambiguificationisation
