All Star Referee Premier League '16-'17 Discussion - Part 9

can't wait for the Alexis version of the let me leave cover in the next couple months

In my honest opinion, and I mean honest, I wish you Arsenal fans would drop the submissive and acquiescent stance towards Alexis and his status at your club, his contract renewal etc.

Stop acting like he's some god deigning his presence. He's a top player and among your very best, no doubt, but it's not like he's slumming at Arsenal ffs.

He's at a club that is appropriate for his level. He was at Barca and flopped. He's not perfect. He's not quite as good as he is selfish IMO.
He should be happy at Arsenal and at the superstar status he's awarded at Arsenal.

Same with Özil btw.

We can't do better than Sanchez or Ozil.

Preach Hans.

I like Sanchez, and he's a very good player, but it's not like the top clubs in the world are going to be lining up to buy him. He would make a lateral move at best (though I don't consider his time at Barcelona to be a flop).

I'd argue for the same for them tbh, Ozil maybe but Sanchez i don't think can join a better team.

Maybe Chelsea sign Sanchez because he's obviously better than Pedro or Willian but i can't see any other team who are better than Arsenal signing him.

Pretty sure he can do better with Juve.

Bournemouth players running through Arsenal midfield like its not there.

Chelsea and Liverpool would take him and both are better than Arsenal so I don't what you're talking about Moal.

I think Juve would take him also.

They can't do better than being a star player at Arsenal either.

They wouldn't be those stars at any of the few bigger clubs

Can't Juve spending 50m+ on another forward and Allegri wanting another forward. He's far too pragmatic to willingly play Sanchez, Higuain and Dybala all at once.

Bournemouth players running through Arsenal midfield like its not there.

That's because it's not

This has been a clueless performance. Gonna need some individual quality to drag us back into it.

You are not going to like me for saying this but he wouldn't join Liverpool.

Wow that was a horrid first half performance from arsenal. I expect them to improve though and i can't see Bournemouth keeping up this pressing for 90 minutes.

I don't really quite either, but the relevant point would be that Barca apparently did, else they wouldn't have shipped him off in the blink of an eye the moment they could upgrade.

B'mouth can press like this for 90 minutes. They did it against us. They even improved after 75th minute and scored 3 goals

It's also the third game in a hectic schedule though

Maybe they can, wait and see I guess

Okay so how did we get here?

It's really sad. But typical for relationship-troubled and depressed people ..

You guys think noone loves you and that you are not lovable - because you don't love yourselves

You need to learn how to love yourself again. You deserve it. You are a lovable club ffs.

I guess, though I think it was a little different. Sanchez plays in Messi's favoured position and they were swapping him for Suarez who is an obvious upgrade on 99.9% of players; he fit into Barcelona better as a player since Sanchez is also very selfish and is best used as the 'main man' of the team.

But all that to say yeah, Sanchez isn't on the level of say a Messi/Ronaldo/Robben/etc. and doesn't fit into a team like Juventus or Atletico (IMO) because of his style so outside of say maybe PSG or something I can't really see a team on a bigger level than Arsenal really pining for him. Could be wrong though.

It's only Palace but Swansea are winning.

Maybe they can stay up after all

Swansea scored. Palace were utter morons to appoint fat Sam with the team they got. No ambition. Hope they go down(which they wont thanks to the man)

The fact is, Ozil and Alexis are undoubtedly our best players. No one in the squad really comes close to their level of quality. Arsenal fans are subservient to them out of fear that without them our level will decline and it'll take two or more years to pick it back up again. Because even if they aren't Madrid/Barca/Bayern level players or whatever, replacing them would be very difficult.

Swansea will go down.

The real question is, who will get Sigurdsson?

Why? he's better than Pardew and i'd argue that having Benteke and Remy is pretty suitable to the strengths of Fat Sam tbh lol.

Cut the crap please

Every neutral loves Arsenal, why do they love Arsenal? Because they don't win anything. No one likes Man United or City or Chelsea because they win stuff. So cut the fake persona and this pseudo nepotistic approach, show some sack(less hans) and tell them the truth, don't pity or show favoritism or whatever

Giroud is so shit ffs
