Re: The Official Winter Transfer Rumours Thread

[Sri]

Just give me the 4th place trophy and a CL R16 now. I will take it and call it a day.

*bleep* this shit.

1 and 2 will be cheezy and manc. We could still have a shot at 3.

Right now, I'd say Liverpool would finish above us.

[6unner]

I am trying to stay positive.

Looks like we both exchanged roles then

[6unner]

trying
not succeeding all that well.
Don't think there is any chance of getting above 3rd. With 4th being a fight until the end. Still feel as though some fairly major changes need to be made in tactics and the squad to do better.

[RealGunner]

Never thought I would see the day where 6unner is more positive than I am!

[6unner]

Was actually just wondering if we need to add to the prediction game.

Who is going to get injured
How long they will be out

Just not sure how to score them.

[Hapless_Hans]

I don't really get why you're all so negative though.

The problems you have now (just Giroud, no DM for tough games) you already had last year.
In the meantime you've strengthened overall.
And the window isn't closed yet.

Why would you finish below Liverpool now?

Oh shut up Hans. Let us crib. We have to wait till January to find opportunities to scream for Wenger's head again. It's all doom and gloom.

Picture this

Javi Martinez injured, BOOM Benatia

Giroud injured, PUFF Sanchez CF, Ozil LW

We won't complain this much if Giroud is not supposed to be out for three months

I have a really good feeling about the season.
I feel Arsene has tasted blood, and I can see a European treble coming.
Why the hell not?
Believe! Believe, you miserable c..ts!

[6unner]

talk sport just said it has been confirmed that Giroud out until December. Not on .com yet though.

[RealGunner]

Wenger on Giroud: "He had surgery. He's out for 3-4 months. You will ask me whether we will buy anyone. Nobody.''

[Hapless_Hans]

lol WHAT

[Hapless_Hans]

just get Remy ffs. 8m. How hard can it be.

[urbaNRoots]

Wenger said so himself post-match "early January" will be his return.

Also pretty much confirms we won't sign a striker "Hard to find better strikers than we have now" "I've bought Alexis to play him as a striker" aswell as "We've got Podolski, Walcott, Campbell, Sanogo, Monreal, Hayden, Afobe etc..."

[6unner]

Wenger has lost it. This was supposed to be the year we compete for EPL and CL.



Now back to our 4th place trophy.

Monreal as CF.

[RealGunner]

Q: Zigic's agent says you're interested in him.
Wenger: 'Who?'
Q: It's ZIGIC.
Wenger: 'Zigic? No'

ffs

[VendettaRed07]

Wenger on Giroud: "He had surgery. He's out for 3-4 months. You will ask me whether we will buy anyone. Nobody.''

madness

[EL Patron]

The real Arsene is back  

Saying goodbye to our title challenge. I can't believe he is going to throw Sanchez in the deep end. He has to adapt to a new league and a new way of playing, never mind a new position. The rest our options don't inspire confidence either.Yaya is so raw,inexperienced and clumsy. Theo will be coming back from a long lay off so he will need some time to rediscover his form while Poldi upfront has never worked. I'd take Chamack at this point ffs

[Hapless_Hans]

yeah. It was arguable you should have gotten an extra CF even with Giroud.
If Giroud is out 4 months.. eh.. kind of makes it urgent.

[urbaNRoots]

I can't see any other club NOT signing a striker if their main one (second choice even) is out for half a season. This is madness.

[Chumlum]

Nothing truly bad has even happened yet and people are going crazy. Be a decent person and wait until we've at least lost our first match of the season to doom & gloom.

Don't worry. Honest. We're going to sign up Micah Richards and Marek Hamsik on deadline day. Everything will be fine.

[EL Patron]

We will sign another Belgian defender and that will be it, if he doesn't sign a striker he has to at least get a CB and a defensive mid

[RealGunner]

on whether Alexis can play up front for 3-4 months…

AW: For three or four months? He can play there his whole life. I bought him to play as a striker, not to play only on the flanks.

Think that's our ST there.

Watch the interview, he doesn't rule a striker out and if he's thinking of it, he's certainly not giving it away.
