The January "He Looks Quite Good" Transfer Thread

Ah the hackneyed sentiment if we sell B- and bring in A+, yet the reality is it never happens. Ox leaves, step forward Maitland Niles.
And then be ruined after a few decent performances, then a really shit one, then dropped for the rest of the season and confidence fucked because of it, then farmed out on loan after loan then sold on...... fuck me i just got déja vu
Ox is going the same way as walnut. Playing out of his skin to earn a lucrative contract and then go into regress mode thanks to Wenger. He's gone from centre mid to right wing, left wing and now wing back in the past year. Before Bayern away last season, he was our best player playing as part of 3 in the middle. Wenger suddenly shunts him out wide and we completely lost control of the midfield in that game. How can any player develop under these circumstances. Wenger is now pandering to him by playing Bellerin at left wing back. In a few years it will be Iwobi's turn.

The Ox to chelsea nearly done and Mustafi to Inter milan. another season of profits and almost zero spent. transfer window after transfer window we been lied to yet the only protest we do is jump up and down on this forum. We are Real madrid when it comes to moaning and complaining and FC Maribor when it comes to protesting. our fans have no backbone and are all bunch of cowards. congratulations Arsenal FC Fans! Keyboard warriors of the year award goes to all of you!!!!! :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:
Agree with the sentiment mate but for the record - I and a few other lads from this Forum decided to step out from behind our keyboards last season. We organised numerous protest marches, 2 aeroplanes that flew over matches, protests at the training ground, a laser light show on the new stadium and several other stunts that really got to Wenger.

That is more than any other top club has ever seen and we intend to do the same again later this season.

So you can call us what you want but please don't call us keyboard warriors.

Ta :lol:
i was there at every protest last season. the word got out i was a wenger out and i got hounded out from my seat at clock end upper.

Sorry to interupt your rousing speech there, mr street fighter, but would you mind telling us what you've done personally to make you think you are entitled to fire such horseshit out of your mouth? :wink:

Also, I love the irony of you having a pop at internet forum keyboard warriors from behind a keyboard on an internet forum... :lol: :oops: :duh:
Wow sir. its easy to sit on your sofa back home write rubbish after rubbish on here.i been following your post and you are just like the other keyboard warriors on here.i still go to every game home and away. you can find my post mostly on tickets to buy n sell over here.i been to every protest last season while you been sitting on the sofa preaching hate day after day.i had to change my season ticket seat because of the abuse i got from AKB's on the clock end after i was seen on one of the protest. anything else you want to know mr Abu Qatada of the online gooner forum?

Just take a step back for a moment. Have a good think about what is actually going on here. We all know Arsenal provide luxury for all their players.
They are paid almost triple of what Spurs players get.
Nobody wants to sign for us apart from Lacezette who wanted to go to Athletico but couldn't because of the ban.
So many want to leave its press the red button time. Whatever Wenger/Kronke has done has put us on on downward spiral that may last for decades.
Stan won't sell he never does, only hand us on to his son. Without direction from the top we can never compete for the top players. Scary stuff and very sad for us fans.
Protest after protest could go on for years because if the new manager is not backed up by big spending then in today's game you get nothing
We should remember that before SK became majority shareholder, Wenger hid behind the austerity argument for years. Purse strings have been relaxed yet issues remain the same and we've gone backwards. You can survive without strategic direction from the top if the manager is focused on wining and willing to go to any length to achieve this. Fergie did at United for years.

We've ended up with the most painful partnership in football and the scariest part is that this could go on for another 6-7years unabated. When it eventually ends, who is to say the fraud still won't have his hand in the pie.

Okay, Mr Freedom Fighter, I’m only going to address you once on this, so do try and pay attention.

I have done my bit and I am happy with what I’ve contributed - not near what a few people on here have contributed, but enough. And I’m certainly not going to come on here like you have done, with your pathetic attention-seeking wannabe freedom-fighter persona, bragging about being “hounded out” and start listing my contribution or any of that frankly embarrassing attention seeking horseshit. There are people on here, whose opinions I respect, that know what I’ve contributed and that’s enough for me. I certainly don’t need to justify anything to a self-aggrandising, myopic, one-dimensional dullard like you. Best you learn that lesson. Idiots like you do more harm than good to a protest because your limited intellect and moronic diatribes put off most intelligent people and reduces the number of protesters. You are an embarrassment.

You come on here firing your mouth off about this forum and yet didn’t even know that the entire protest you claim to have attended so often was organised by a group from within this forum. :oops: :lol:

I would also say by attending the Conglomerates you are financially supporting the regime and the owner and are part of the problem. I stopped going a few years ago and refuse to give financial support to the regime. For you to financially support them and then come on here whining like a slapped bitch about people not doing enough is moronic hypocrisy of the worst kind.

We can't attract any new players, we can't tie down the players we want to keep and because of the socialist wage structure we can't offload the dross.

Who could do a better job they said, he's earned the right to decide his own future they cried, be careful what you wish for they sneered.

Well whoever wished for an away trip to the third best team in Lithuania in some run down, crumbling old communist stadium is about to have their dreams come true :barscarf:

Speak for yourself, some of us on here were out protesting last year and also the year before. There are a lot of guys on here that have done a hell of a lot of work on it, so don't tar everyone with the same brush.
