we have mvg and pasalic for that. romeu is no where near to good enough.

to get some of our investment back i guess.

what the serious fuck man!!! the moaners will simply take over the forum if people like you leave.

hahahha... so since they were last in the BVB, united should not buy him? did not bolton get relegated the year we bought GC from them? "i dont think he can defend" hahahah...i am very surprised owen hargreaves said it cos he should have got a lot of time watching football lying on the hospital bed. probably he had been injured so often, has forgotten the ABCD of football.

we are paying 30+mil does not mean HE IS WORTH 30+MIL. 20mil would have been the MAX for me. so as i see it, we are paying double (or more) of his actual value. so it is comparable. just cos we are doing a stupid thing by paying OTT does not mean its not. we are buying a player of "potential" who would not be anywhere near our starting 11 currently, instead of spending it on a player who would improve us. i dont know.like i said, i was spitballing. say he is worth 50mil euros. if we are willing to pay 15-20mil pounds (21-30 mil euros) above stones' proper value, we can do the same for varane. cant we? as for hummels, i have watched him plenty of times. probably, you need to watch to understand the difference between a world class defender and a david luiz.

GC is one of the best defenders in PL. JT, kompany, and? who? kos, who has about 5 forgetable games every season along with giving a penalty every 3rd/4th match? jones? smalling? who? and since our manager is jose mourinho, even more reason to keep GC in the team (since he thrives under "mourinho's system"). why should we replace him with someone who clearly is not even as good as he is...

have we signed stones yet? has THIS been easy? oh definitely. i mean just a lot of mudslinging, name calling, bad publicity, our players saying that stones would a great addition. if we do half of the drama that we have gone thru with stones, as well as our willing to pay half as OTT for hummels, he would be here. other clubs have not signed someone like hummels cos those that can pay 50mil euros, already have players in their squad. bayern - badstubber, dante, boateng, martinez, benatia rm - pepe, varane, ramos barca- pique, masch, bartra, vermalean city - kompany, demichellis, 32mil mangala, denayer plus they are busy revamping their attack with kdb, sterling (100mil pounds, spending another 40 on CB would be ridiculous). psg - silva, luiz, marquinhos - combined their transfer fees can run the bottom half of la liga clubs, the only teams with the slightest inclination to buy a CB are united and chelsea. but we are busy spending 30mil pounds on stones who would cost more than the whole back 5 which conceded the least goals last season - (courtois - 6mil, iva - 9mil, gc - 7mil, jt - 0mil, azpi - 7mil. total 29mil).

i am just spitballing here. but 50mil euros is a LOT OF MONEY. varane and jose have a good relationship. if we want a good defender, then we should be over paying for someone like that!!!! not for someone who in all honesty is barely any better than the 3 we currently have. scratch that, put iva in too. barely any better than the 4 currently we have. hummels and luiz? just cos both are ball playing defenders? hummels is actually a great defender who along with defending has other good qualities. luiz is just LOL. concetration issues, defending issues, you name it, he has got it.

they spent 16mil or something on chambers or something. could have got a much better CB to really improve their squad. and that is EXACTLY what we are doing. and for 30mil pounds (43mil euros), add about 7 more and you are in for a WC defender like varane/hummels.

we would lose one of PL's best defenders for a decent CB who is being hyped foolishly on here.

to be fair, telegraph, guardian and most are reporting it as 14mil. its just the dailyfail who are reporting it as 21.7mil.

so we will be degrading ourselves so that john stones can get game time. oh wait!!! has not been arsenal's motto for the past 10 years?

hahahha... no dude. i dont dread or dislike stones. he is a good player. but he is not what we want. 30+mil backup when we can buy witsel for 22? its just frustrating.

dude, why the fuck even bother? most of them are obvious trolls!!!

thank fucking god!!! atleast we have our full set of players now.

fucking get this shit done!!!! what the actual fuck!!!

i remember GC having solid games, making half a mistake and been castrated for it. at the end of the day, stones is quite far off GC at the moment. 34mil for bench currently when we so direly need a CM and especially a left footed left back.

ivanovic says hi!!!! they both probably had a bet to see who could suck more. and counting oliver, we were playing something like 9 v 14 to start with.

begovic iva GC JT azpi matic ramires willian oscar hazard costa i am sorry. but cesc has done NOTHING to guarantee a spot for this match. makes our attacks slow, is useless as a no.10. shocking in the opposition box and clearly unfit

we can post an ad on the classified "need a genuine full back. someone who is quicker than a snail, can make a 2 meter pass, will not cross the ball into an empty box"

our players clearly are not to their best fitness yet. we were very good in the first half (courtesy oscar), and then every possible thing that could go wrong, went wrong. courtois - needless. dont know what he was thinking. better to conceded than go a man down. 4/10 azpi - decent game. got some problems with ayew early on but all in all, was good. 7/10 JT - very odd game. missed tackles, missed offsides. very unlike JT. 5/10 GC - one of our only defenders that could hold his head high. seems far more confident this year, even his ball playing has improved. 7/10 iva - atrocious. absolutely atrocious. could not handle montero. slowed down our attack. and that last chance where he had some 5 yard place at the edge of the box and got dispossessed symbolised his game. shameful. if i was jose, i would strip him off his vice captaincy and bench him for 10 games. seemed disinterested. i mean that run off routledge where he just let him go and let GC deal with it like it was not his job. hopeless. needs to be dropped. -10/10 matic - bossed it. 8/10 cesc - very very poor. cant believe he was not subbed off. i mean what the fuck does he try to do after reaching the opposition box. who the fuck does he think he is trying to glide thru 5 defenders. just take a fucking shot or pass it or at the fucking least dont lose the ball. 2/10 hazard - clearly unfit. 5/10 oscar - amazing performance. what back flips. cant believe he was subbed. WTF jose!!! 10/10 willian - good in attack. but should have kicked iva to wake up. 7/10 costa - decent. but i think his name precedes him now. that ashley williams thing was a definite foul. subs - begovic - very good. commanding. not at all worried about courtois suspended. zouma - good outing. falcao - decent run in. looked like he was up for it. really excited to see what he can offer.

nope. iva has been poor.

wonderful first half. had more completed back flicks than iva had normal passes. as for people having "the most smug look", LOL... one game, one season, same thing right!!!??

hahahahhahaha... no words. no words. our messiah ladies and gentleman!!! 30+mil pound. and he is supposed to displace both cahill and zouma.
