Bernard N Y Burgesson 139 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I just don't get why top players behave like this. The money they earn is equivalent to winning the lottery every year, for many years. It may show a lack of ambition on my part but, if I was in so fortunate a position, I'd make simple tax arrangements, pay what's due and sleep easy at night. Why, when you can give your family a great lifestyle with the best of everything, would you let stress and hassle in your door? I think we can guess why; it's the result of suggestions from advisers brought on board by their agents. If these young men would take advice from a different source, I'd say tell your agent to stop it. Bring your earnings on shore, look the world square in the eye and say, I know the money I'm paid is beyond ridiculous but that's not my fault. At least I behave properly about it and pay my dues. If these lads don't know it already, they need guidance to help them understand that integrity, peace of mind and the respect of the world, is worth more than a few extra quid to spend at the Burj Khalifa.But i think it not thier fault is more of a spanish system. Don't you realize it is almost always spain based players who have such issues. Unlike England where your tax is taking before you get paid.Sent from my SHV-E250K using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lads aregetting these massive wages and people around them blowing smoke up their arses at a very young age and I know just how easy it is to go off the rails if they dont have a good advisor around to help them get thru it. Theres all the trappings of fame and fortune. Girls,booze,gear,hangers on and just pissing it up the wall generally. Our accademy at least I should think have good advisors where thats concerned helping them from an early age. Getting them to understand the traps and learning investments. 27 minutes ago, Bernard N Y Burgesson said: more of a spanish system You're right. Ive learned thru my travels all countries do things very differently. Whether its taxes,laws,customs or greasing palms of peoples hands to bypass red tape or get things done quietly or faster.

Sent from my SHV-E250K using Tapatalk You're right, I don't know the Spanish system but if it makes misbehaviour easier to fall into then, in the end, that is no excuse. Misbehaviour is still misbehaviour. Do the right thing; you'll feel better about yourself, you'll be more respected, you'll sleep better at night and you'll still live like a prince.

Hard to say what was going on as Jose was our manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really need to start setting our sights at the level we want to achieve. Theres really not that many 20+ goal scorers around, specially ones PL proven. We go in with a proper realistic bid instead of trying to penny pinch and we might just get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanchez would make a good false number 9 he scores alot of goals hazard Sanchez Pedro would be nice line up for next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine that top line with a good striker with him and Eden! Give them a couple of good creative lads feeding them, 1 in CM and 1 in CB and they would run riot.

bluesman2610 1,423 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 He could complete our attack in a way we haven't seen in a very long time , as long as we can keep hold of Costa that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 He is brilliant player on his own, but a very frustrating one too. His passing and link up sometimes is awful and makes you frustrated soon. He dwells on ball too long instead of releasing it. But as long he plays the striker role in Arsenal where he is the main guy, it works. But on the wing and if he played next to Costa and Eden, he would need to adopt to become more team player. Him and Costa, I can see plenty of chances wasted because those two would try to do things on their own. One player, it works, but two I dunno. I would still prefer someone more creative and quicker thinker, with a decent shot. Besides looking at Alexis not giving a crap when things go south, we dont need such character.

You can say the same thing about our players last season..... So because of that I won't take it against him, especially being at Arsenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 His head needs to be checked if he puts pen to paper to a new contract and stays with Arsenal the perennial losers past this season. Conte must work his magic and bring him here, no way Arsenal will hold for a mamoth fee if Alexis hands in a transfer request. Oscar money should do the job.
