Its obvious Hodgson is being shafted endlessly by the board.

which part do you disagree with mr LOLFACE

is he as fast as lennon? does he not exibit strength? is he as quick footed as nani or another good 'winger'?

why not state which bit you disagree with instead of getting a postcount+1 lol post?

Given your general opinion in here and knowledge of players that don't play for United, I thought LOL pretty much said it all. But clearly you need to know why you're wrong again.

Yes he's fast. Yes he 'exhibits strength'. Every game in fact. And yes, he is as quick footed as any other winger in the Prem, but comparing to someone who does stepovers in the middle of the pitch with no one near him for 20 yards isn't exactly great.

Try watching teams that aren't United.

No doubt at all - Bale is a fantastic young player, I admire him for wanting to strengthen the weaker/defensive part of his game - but I would say stick to what comes naturally, which seems to be the more offensive part of his game

Given some things he says, he needs to watch utd more, let alone other teams!
 
<sigh> another thread derailed by Nick slating a quality player...

be honest, you'd have Bale at United. On current form any team would have him.


I am amazed Salcido appears to be costing Fulham just £1.5mil. He was a real standout player for Mexico at the world cup, looked great going forwards. Tbh if I was Liverpool I'd be signing him instead of Konchesky...
 
Just lol big time at anyone knocking Bale

Personally I've always thought he was a quality player, even when he didn't play for like a year and had that loss record against him. Quality always shines through though and we're seeing that now with him.

Massively gutted that he chose Spurs over us, I'd love him at United

As for his performance last night, didn't he create at least 3 of the goals? Not bad for a clumsy player, then there's the quality of the goal he scored against Stoke.

Serious potential to be world class the lad

After three seasons with the club, Mascherano is thought to be desperate for a move away as his family have not settled in England.

Barcelona are also known to be interested in bringing him to the Camp Nou, and compatriot Lionel Messi has urged Liverpool to let him leave.

He told the Daily Express: "Javier won't play for the club again, I can assure you of that, and I think the Liverpool coach knows that now.

"Javier's family are unhappy and the pressure of seeing that is making him depressed. Liverpool must act humanely and let him go."

Time for poor old Liverpool this time to get a bit of the lovely Barca treatment that Arsenal have enjoyed all summer.

publicly declare interest -> submit a derisory offer way below the value of the player -> get your players to start gobbing off to the media

Unless it is some talking that you have done with your feet Lionel, I don't think anyone cares! Now ****ing shuttup

It's still not confirmed they are signing Konchesky, ideally we want him to stay, but I guess we're gonna put up with Salcido/Kelly/Briggs for left back till maybe January if he goes.
 
France defender Sebastien Squillaci completes his move to Arsenal from Spanish club Sevilla

One CB signed up. Another maybe before the transfer deadline would be nice and/or a Goalie.

yes as a left back. not as a left winger...

how the hell do you determine that i am derailing this?

is bale as quickfooted as ANY other winger in the premiership? you didnt answer my question IS he as fast as lennon? as fast as walcott? no of course he isnt, therefore for a winger is is relatively slow. that doesnt mean he is slow like...laurent blanc, but it does mean he is slow compared to theo walcott or lennon etc. sadly there arent any mph ratings for bale but when there is we can quantify whether he is top 10 potential.



im not saying he isnt a good player ffs just that he is not the best winger in the premiership.
 
Arsenal now just need a keeper :p

A defensive / ball winning midfielder oh and another centre back given their injury problems year on year :p
 
bale is 6'2, completely different frame to lennon. lennon can skate and skip past players, bale will power past them. if he bulks up a little, he'll be as powerful as ronaldo and he's easily as quick.
 
I can't believe we didn't push more for Bale last summer. Leonardo was very keen on him. Sounds about right for our board :/

Galliani sitting in a house with Ibrahimovic at the moment - the deal appears to hinge at present on his tool of an agent who is happily slating everyone and the player himself who will have to accept a pay cut of around €2m per season to €10m. How the hell we are going to be able to afford him, even if we do finally manage to get rid of Huntelaar, is beyond me. Perhaps by not reinforcing the rest of the squad next summer either.

Ever thought of a John Lennon cover?

I can just see it now.
