  1. I'll always remember his first couple of seasons with us. He was a madman. Always getting booked and sent off but he calmed down. He does kinda throw himself into tackles, like Cahill sometimes, but I reckon thats cause hes not very fast. Remember the palava when we signed him eh. Even press stuff with him in a United shirt. With Fergie saying he was going to be the new Roy Keane lol We gotta remember Mou signed him and even tho hes made a few transfer mistakes (IMHO) he wont want to give up lightly on someone hes always praised. Altho I'll always thank him for Bayern I wouldn't miss the lad if he went. For some reason, dont ask me why, Ive never felt a bond with him and I find that strange.
  2. I know I'm biased but IF I was Pogba, a young very talented player thats got loads of potential (AND I KNEW IT) I think I would like to play, at this age, with a manager I thought would get me to the level i wanted to be. Lets face it hes a rich old boy and if he comes to us or Citeh his wages arent going to be so much different. It might come down to who he will know at his next club and how much the manager is willing to go out of his way to get into his head and talk him round to his way of thinking. eg Cescy. Yes course its going to be hard but IMO if Mou wanted him he would do all in his powers to get him.
  3. Dont you think that something we need is a winge/RAM that can stay out wide, take the ball to the byline before he crosses it? We have too many similar players that like to cut in early. I'm not saying this is bad but we NEED to have depth in players that will offer us different options instead of at best mirror copies.
  4. I think youre right. The difference IMHO tonight was our lack of regular 1st team play. But at the same time I do think its a very big gamble FOR US to play him. IF we was a mid table team with no objective or ambition to succeed in Europe it would be great to play him plus regular academy lads. But its very hard to get that balance for us and Im afraid Id play a 'complete' player before him MOST games.
  5. I should think Lolpool haven't stopped laughing over Torres yet so of course theyre rubbing their hands together waiting to get as much as they can now for a player that doesnt want to be there. He would be very good with us but we know theres about £10mill worth of hype and homegrown on his head.
  6. No doubt in my mind about the guys character. Might be fantastic fun to get pissed with. Just saying his smiles always look forced apart from the one where Hazard was taking the piss out of him. Im just saying without his mate Filipe on hand it may be harder to keep him thinking Blue thoughts.
  7. Salah in as part ex http://www.givemesport.com/591388-chelsea-to-include-mohamed-salah-in-offer-for-antoine-griezmann?autoplay=on
  8. Im sure we could upgrade both BANE AND Cahill - Even now I'd play Zouma over Cahill but I know I'm living in gaga land I'm still dreaming of Varane/Zouma team up.
  9. That would be a much better answer IF he wasn't still one of the very best in the world.
  10. Chelsea have signed him. They cant be a very ambitious team.
  11. I dont mind Lolpool getting Firmino but does it make any difference for their SUPPOSED interest in Falcao? Might also bring down Sterlings price.
  12. , courtesy of Gianluca Di Marzio: Chelsea is interested in a new left wing back. As we reported earlier today, Mourinho's club is after Baba, who is coming off a strong season at Augsburg and anche performed well in the Africa Cup. The player's agent, Sascha Empasher, traveled to London to meet with Chelsea who offered €15 million, but Likely it will take €20 million to acquire him. Chelsea faces competition from Juventus for Baba, but they are trying to close the deal before the Bianconeri.
  13. They seem to be able to sell good players and buy great replacements. They certainly do have that magnetism that players WANT to go to them.
  14. With just 4 weeks till the US tour I hope we have some irons in the fire. Can just see how busy it gets on here in the closing days with just Falcao signed. (Touch wood that the Dippers beat us to him. Maybe if we ask them nicely?)
  15. Much easier said than done to be so magnanimous sometime. When you spend week after week, season after season trudging up n down the length of England and around Europe. In these days of being continually told to keep our emotions under control we have less and less places that we can release our angst so what harm is there to show our disappointment if we think someone has let us down that plays for the team which we love? Nobodys asking people to agree with it. We all have a right to voice opinions whether anti or pro as long as its not violent.
  16. Hes got good comments from his German fans on Youtube.
  17. Different situation. Lamps APPARENTLY signed for NY and Citeh pulled a snide one. Personally I love the lad and hes made me happy watching him. And I will clap him on and off the pitch. But I'm afraid that during the game he gets treated like any other blinkin Gooner Theres 2 questions. How long does a player have to be with us to become a legend? How loud will you cheer for him if he saves an important penalty against us?
  18. Tebo is undoubtedly if not now then very soon the best keeper in the world. Whether he plays out his contract or not Im sure we will all agree that hes got Spain in his future. Its very understandable that it may have taken him a little while for his head to come round to finally playing for us after he had such a good time for AM. Ive no ide what his personality is like but his smiles always seem forced to me and never looks relaxed with the other lads. Apart from Filipe that is. What worries me is IF/WHEN Hilipe jogs on Tebo is going to be minus 1 good friend and I hope the club is looking at that cause we really dont want to be looking for a new keeper in 2 years time while Big Pete is still a Gooner eh!
  19. Made me laugh that at 80 year old he decided to gave what money he had left away to live a frugal lifestyle. Bet that 5th wife that he married din't stay round much longer afterwards!
  20. And as we arent going to do owt with Moses anyway. Do we know how his hamstring is holding up? And speaking of dodgy hammys ---- WTF Didn't Costa go straight into the op room to get his sorted out after the Palace game?
  21. Now why couldnt this geezer be best mates with Falcao!
  22. Looks like we got a queue forming for young Charly Musonda. Gooners still on his case and Citeh.
  23. So they want £10mill AND Moses who cost us £10mill!! He only cost them £3.25mill. What have we done to them? They just playing billy big bollox?
  24. Nowt really like Mata. Tho Mata was a fave and made a big impression on us but he was only with us for 2 1/2 years ffs. You dont get emotionally attached to a player after that short time.
