So it sound like Arsenal are caving on Nasri to City, and looking increasingly retarded/pathetic/toothless in the process having made a huge deal about begging Nasri to stay and refusing to sell..... which at every single stage was a truly moronic stance to take. It was obvious to anyone who isn't blind that Nasri wasn't going to sign a new contract, we could have come out smelling of roses, taken the money, pointed out he'd been crap, laugh at City, and bring in a better replacement.
Instead we made Arsenal look desparate, because Wenger is desparate, it couldn't be any more clear what a lack of idea's Wenger has.
Instead of getting Mata as a replacement, we've spent similar money on a winger from Southampton, who hasn't ever played even close to premiership levels, and Southampton fans seem to be laughing at Arsenal aswell, for buying the wrong player for WAY too much money.
Gervinho might prove to be awesome, he might be rubbish, he wasn't what we needed. Arshavin is awesome, but he's still not really a winger, and at the time he wasn't remotely what we needed.
We're looking almost certain to lose, Cesc, Nasri, Bendtner, Clichy, Eboue, who are all either more than good enough for some first team games and very decent backup, or great first team options, and we've brought in, a winger for the future, a right back, for the future, and a semi proven striker, to play him as a winger.
Wenger has been a joke for 6 years now, making the wrong choices on who to bring in, and who to get rid of and this season he seems to be absolutely demolishing the side, replacing some of our best players, with either MUCH worse quality, or simply not replacing at all.
When we were desparate for a defender/keeper a couple years ago, we bought Arshavin, then we finally bought in a couple CB's several years too late, and he buys Squillaci............
