In a statement, Nick Denton, the founder of Gawker Media, who was also personally

know is that big clubs buy big
name players for large sums of money

Ei for arsenal the next game is always a panic station because of one or two things.However i am always scared when i see a certain three
players in the team.They are not supposed to be there yet keep being there.I do not want to mention
names but just start from the defense to the attack and you might
know them.By the way i hope Walcott plays we need someone like him to be inform because he can really help us.
Van Dijk; Carvalho; Lemar; Seri are all
names that have popped up in the rumour mill and if they weren't I would hardly think many of us would even
know of these
players.
I have been supporting Arsenal since the mid 50's and coming since 1958 and could write a huge book about many Arsenal
names - not just
players - that todays kids and»
know nothing before Wenger types» have even heard about.
If Wenger dies try and buy

This year is
no different then the previous transfer windows whereby Wenger panics at the 11th hour and tries to buy any
player from the basement bucket... You can youtube any
player (search...
players names + goals) and you'll see a compilation that will make that
player look to be on the same level as the best strikers around.
I do nt
know if Pedro is one of these sufficient big
name players but i do think he would suit our game.
If we are going to sign a young
player with just 31 top flight appearances to his
name I would prefer calum chambers oh
no we have already signed him.
The Spurs
players and fans will
no doubt be well up for it and I think we could face a bit of an onslaught, so the
name of the game will be to hold and hopefully hit them on the break.
@john0711 it's people like you I don't get.Do you
know Chamakh may have been a worse
player than Giroud but let's be honest Chamakh was a better finisher than Giroud.Even him was labelled as garbage.Can someone
name a striker with exception of Gervinho (man he was awfully out of this world) who played for Araenal who Giroud had better finishing than.Giroud is to me part of Arsenal's worst finishers ever and please let's not deny it and note I considered only «finishing»..
How terribly sad... we have fallen so far that we find ourselves in the ridiculous position of propping up the oft - injured and rarely inspirational Jack Wiltshire... what's next, extending Walcott, Welbeck and Ramsey... can't you see that these
players have nothing to do with winning and all to do with providing recognizable
names to the plastic fans who frequent our overgrown library of a stadium... it's high time we rid this club of one of the worlds most incompetent and unsuccessful owners (look it up) and our fragile and spineless manager (much like our club) who can't bring in the best talent because he
knows he can't live up to expectations that come with
players of that ilk... think about it, he couldn't even handle Sanchez, who was largely a periphery character in Barcelona
he will ow need a work permit plus it looks like Wenger is
no longer interested in African
players, He learnt hsi lessons with Adebayor, Toure, Gervinho, Eboue and Lauren just to
name a few
I just don't
know what's wrong with Arsenal fans.Sure I get it as humans we all have our preferences but things start to look funny when we begin to bash and criticize a
player like he's useless.I just don't get why Arsenal fans do nt want Vardy.Oh is it because he's not world class, he's English, He's not a big
name, he's a fairy tale, you feel all he does is run, he's not got a better history in footballing until now or you feel Giroud is better or what?I really pity Arsenal fans honestly.I would've taken Jamie Vardy in a heartbeat.Sure he's not the best option out there.But I'll say this and say it again it's not a world class striker that wins you a league but rather just increases your chances of winning the league.If you've watched Arsenal clearly from the time since Henry left you realized that it's more of not being able to find a clinical striker.Eduardo was not a already a finished product when he started his career here yet he was clinical and was on world class form until injury.What Arsenal need now is a world class finisher if they can't get a world class striker.
Snatching big
names coveted around is start, selling a few
players (3 - 5) that should not be here next season to add to the rumoured «war chest» is another... Let's wait and see... he
knows and so does the club that the fan's patience towards the lack of trophy is paper thin as well that missteps will likely not be forgiven.

Cech vidal benzema in dreamland is what we need will we get them he'll

Whats worse is
knowing City got Aguero before they were ever a title winning team, and eventually he won them a trophy and made them more attractive to the big
name players.
I
know it's an honor to announce the pick but I could see some big
name former
players saying nah when we don't even have a 2nd round pick.
Hahaha you guys are funny, all cry babies, i lost faith in Wenger after he sold RvP, but Ozil and Sanchez showed me that he wants big trophys, and i trust his decision, all those
players came cuz of him, do you think Cech would sign for Arsenal if we wouldnt compete for major trophys, many agents saying we will sign BIG BIG
name in august, how do they
know that?
u
know the problem with some fans make top four seem more important than a trophy.the reason arsenal wants top four is because of the money thats a fact everyone
knows that.but as we move to city, man u they want ucl so that they can attract the big
names thays why man u is fighting, same mancity notop four they
know attracting world class
players will be tough.do u think thats the same reason arsenal wants to finish top four??

Frankly i think too many on this site
know shite about how to get a team to play well together... you may
know your football and «world class»
players by
name but certainly not about teams and team cohesion and belief (in your team mate and the team potential).
In the midfield, (including RWB & LWB) we have a whole bunch of tweeners... none offer the full package, none make sense in our manager's current favourite formation, except for Sead on the left and Ox on the right, and all of them have never shown any consistency for more than a heartbeat... Sead, who I'm including in this category because of our present formation, looks like a positive addition, minus his occasional brain farts, but I would rather see what he could do in a back 4 before making my mind up... Ox, who has never played better, which isn't saying much considering his largely underwhelming play in previous seasons, seems to have found a home in this new formation; unfortunately, can we really expect this oft - injured
player to handle the taxing duties that come with said position over the long haul, not to mention, it looks like he has no intention of staying... Ramsey has relied on the empathy that stems from his gruesome injury years ago and the excitement that was generated a few years back when he finally seemed to put in altogether, but on the whole he has been a big disappointment (neither he nor the Ox have scored enough to warrant a regular spot)... Wiltshire should be put on a weekly contract then played until he suffers his first injury, if and when that occurs he should be shipped - out and no one should very be allowed to say his
name on club grounds ever again... Elnehy & Coq are average
players who couldn't make any of the top 7 teams currently in the EPL... both have showed some great energy on the pitch, but neither are top quality and no good team can afford to have that many average
players on their bench playing the same position, especially with Coq's injury history / discipline concerns and Elheny's headless chicken tendencies... as for Xhaka, his tenure here so far has been incredibly underwhelming... we
know he has some skills to provide the long ball but his defensive work is piss poor and he gives the ball away too cheaply and far too often... finally, the enigma himself, Ozil, so much skill with his left foot but his presence has been more frustrating than uplifting... in many respects his failure has been directly related to the failure of this club to provide him with the necessary
players up front, minus Sanchez of course, and unless something drastic happens very soon his legacy will be largely a negative one (much like Wenger's)
Great for Maureen to talk about giving chance to youth
players, then go and sign a expensive big
name at 29 years old For Ospina, I
know he divided opinion but some statistics does not lie, we conceeded large number of goals from crosses in the 2nd half of the season — he is a consistent goalkeeper and fine shot stopper but never a commanding one.
Many
players that have played alongside the former Liverpool man would
name him in their own ultimate XI and Ozil is
no different.
Everyone
knows we like to keep things hush hush, we would have asked him not to speak on this, so I believe he's just using Arsenal's
name like so many
players have done before him.
Two
players that regularly come to the fore in this regard are Tomas Rosicky and Alex Oxlade - Chamberlain (I
know he is injured — but his
name always crops up when he doesn't feature).
The former Borussia Dortmund Head Scout is
known for his part in bringing previously unknown
players to the German club prior to them becoming regular household
names, including the likes of Pierre - Emerick Aubameyang, Robert Lewandowski, Ousmane Dembele and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, and he may have already unearthed a gem who could go on to play at the top level for years to come.

no one wants us to.

Some
players really do keep going for a long time — you all
know about recent big
names such as Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard and Andrea Pirlo making moves to the MLS, but some of these from our top ten are sure to shock you!
Good striker, good team
player and always gives his all yet so many hate him and call him
names like donkey and lamppost
no matter how many goals he scores or how great or important they are.
In an recent interview he mentioned two target by
name and said everyone
knows we want these
players and are trying to get them if we succeed is another thing altogether.
This pressure should continue so that these
players know that they are playing for Arsenal and that his
name is more important than the team.
Now I
know many will have superstar
players ready to ink in on the team sheet over the
names of Giroud and Coquelin but I would like to pose the following question.
I
know stupid people keep saying we have no depth, but when our injured
players are healthy again we will have «big»
name players that won't even make the bench.
Who cares spurs prop beat them anyway we are falling giant in bits everywhere team to da owners to da manager always up to da fans, club needs a big
name someone who Sanchez will say hey great signing I'm staying I believe in this project but same shit every year some fans still think we're great and hope it be this year haha I
no the way it is ahwell we go anfield and win haha draw be good result we're already playing catch up to Jose but they
no we're
no treat we're prop behind Everton like Jesé who scored yesterday could play for us but we got Walcott or ozil even thou I thought Ozick did some good play but to weak gives up easy I honestly think if we lose Liverpool da house will fall down everywhere we need top defender and steel in midfield and we need right winger I say van diik and nzonzi if not nzonzi go get hamsik worldy
player he is and go get wolfed zaha if not him Carracci of Atlanta Madrid load out there handily is da
player we should get thou wat lift he give us
The club are spending no more money this window - unless an unknown no hoper, Sanogo style, from the French lower division comes for loose change — and this Scrooge club are simply trying to recoup the Lacazette fee from existing deadwood, reduce the wagebill and con us poor mug fans once again with lies about this or that big
player being on the radar, when the truth is — as we cynics
know very well, who have learned better from bitter experiience of the clubs constant lies — that no one of note is coming in and this dishonourable, shifty club continue to drag our former great
name in the mud, with their corrupt misrunning of our once great and glorious club.
However much I can't stand the Pats, they consistently do a good job of not simply going after the big
name prospects (especially in FA) but are able to find unknown or lesser
known players that fit a specific role and can focus and do a specific job well.
No doubt the Portuguese coach would be splurging big money in the transfer market and you would say that would make our own transfer business more difficult, but then again we never seem to challenge for the big
name players anyway.
Those
players collectively were
known by the quaint and improbable
name of «the defence.»
