Arsenal Thread

[PU6HY]

stop chatting out of your arse me old pal You took over and fucked up the team lol! i was in charge. i made the club. i did all the hard work recruiting people from here and all over the web and i built our club community from the gound up

You crossed my path, wanted some troll member to rejoin us after he slagged all of us including u in the past and got booted out by me and so i go rid of u

Im now i a better club thank u, top 20 in the world as well with strict rules and dictatorship as you call it yet we are succesful and play good football to boot. no hacks, no cehating

Hows the nightly blu rays nowadays lol

Again. I (as in me) did not take the club over. You really are crazy and draw on whatever memory is in your temperamental little head.

There was a vote to let the other guy back in. Wasn't just down to me so how did just me let him back in and fuck the club up? He apologised, I said I was happy enough to give him another chance and going by the voting system, others did too. You just cried like a baby and started kicking everyone out. It was pathetic. After all that, he played about 2 games so stop talking absolute shit!

"You crossed my path". Grow up ya clown. I told you to stop acting like a petulant child. It's my ball, I'm taking it home with me springs to mind with you.

I've never said you didn't start the team up (it was an effort and fair dos to you) but your behaviour at times was ridiculous.

And how are the NIGHTLY Blu Rays? Fuck knows fella. I've got a life that doesn't revolve around playing games most nights.

 

[PU6HY]

yup i build a club from ground up. booted some dead wood in the team and got slagged off by my fellow team members so i left lol.

Now that's not exactly true is it? Christ you don't half talk some shit!

Sorry about the thread hijack guys but he can do one talking shit about me. At least I'm dealing in facts and not stuff that only happens in Jonnyland.

Jonney if they sack Wenger we will wake up in the bottom half of the table and won't know what hit us!
I think you didn't present any decent replacement for him. Rijkaard is so good he's in Turkey, isn't he? AVB is highy overrated and should be doing a lot better with all that money at Chelsea. And Ancelotti is supposed to go to newly rich Paris Saint-Germain, how can you compete with the cash they're splashing?

Do you know how much it would cost for Arsenal to get one Ancelotti or one Mourinho? I don't know if the club is ready to afford that. Not to mention the war chest those managers would require! Do you think they'd be happy with the human material we have going on now?
And well, they wouldn't stay for over 4 seasons anyway. It would be very short term and wouldn't bring us stability in any way.

Having said that, I'm in no way excusing Wenger for letting the team go like this. He's stubborn ways are quite irritating, he's the only one insisting we can maintain this 4-3-3 with wingers who don't defend, and the defensive problems are still there, the lack of organisation and all that.

If Wenger doesn't raise his voice in the dressing room when needed, then he's gone too soft and should deserved a proper bollocking from the board.

But in all fairness to Wenger, I don't think another manager would do better with this limited human material we have now. The summer transfers were very harsh on us with Fabregas and Nasri going and this is perhaps the weakest Arsenal side he's had to manage to this day.

This current squad is so feeble that I almost find myself, during my prayers at night, praying for the health of RVP and Sczcsesny
As bad as things are at the moment, I can't imagine a tougher ride than having to field the likes of Chamakh and Fabianski.

i gave that guy two chances and he fucked up thats why i booted him for the 2nd time. Dont know what the hell u smoking back there!

i was suppose to be manager and i am suppose to be responsible for decisions i make, none of this voting shit. i gave u and everyone else a lot of lea-way and saying. You make it sound as if i was a right dick telling u and others how to play, where to play and if u dont obey my rules i kick u out if u dont play defence, or dont play x amount of times a week etc etc.

All i did was boot a guy out of our club and you start getting a hissy fit all over it so i booted you out.

my fault was that i gave u and every one else FARR too much lea-way and control over me and i shouldnt. i should have been MORE strict and harsh to you all and got rid of shit players in the team but no, i was nice to u all, nice to some of the people who diddnt know the word "pass" nice to u to listen to your opinions and views. nice to let some of you scout new players and give them invites etc etc.

too FUCKING nice i was mate

Well that is ONE OF THE reasons why i wanted wenger out years ago! so that we could have gotten someone like anchelloti or AVB to take charge of a side that had the likes of fabregas and nasri in our team but no we are leaving it too late.

The longer we ponder with wenger, the harder it is to get a replacement.

I never had any hissy fits. Again, talking shite! I just tried reasoning with you. You are incapable of this due to your temperament. I never slagged you off or anything like that. I just tried calming you down but you go off on one and start booting myself and some others for nothing. You ended up apologising to me and inviting me back so I'll ask what were YOU smoking?
... I don't by the way as it's disgusting habit and wouldn't want to smell like shit all the time.

Your pass stats were one of the worst in the team so nobody could take you serious when telling everyone else to pass!

Argh. Fuck this! You know what he's like.

what the fuck are u doing in here! jog off back to avf

@Pu

i think u was the only one i booted out. dont remember booting anyone else except for u. end of the day i made a decision to boot someone out and all of a sudden u and others disagree and then came a voting system.

i had no authority whatsoever as i was too nice to all u lot. i was suppose to be a manager. And last i heard, a manager of any sorts, whether its some virtual footy game or a real life footy team, HAS control over his own decisions whether players/fans etc like it or not. not no voting system!

Do you think the club also gets a voting system too? Did the players all vote for Ashavin to come on

I made a decision to get rid of a player who has had more then one chance! And you and some others wasnt happy about it. And when i said "tuff shit" either take accept or piss off, thats when it all went down hill. my decision was my mine only and my responsibility. And u call that a dictatorship? based one me saying fuck off, This guy is banned? u CALL THAT BEING A DICTATORSHIP????????

We had already agreed to have a system to vote on anything. You were hardly around so how could you carry on doing anything? There were 5 of us set to GM's. You set us up as them! Even after agreeing all this, you booted out GM's (more than one!). Can't remember who else it was (might have been Boggy) but def wasn't just me. So yeah, you couldn't have a proper conversation about stuff so took your ball home and started booting people from the club.

And I never said I wasn't happy about it. I said let's discuss it but that's impossible with you.

I'm done with this now. I can't chat with somebody who can't even recall what was actually happening at the time.

Sorry all. This got a bit stupid. It went from a jokey comment about not being able to manage a virtual team properly and having the nerve to slag off a good manager working with constraints, to somebody talking shit. I don't mind a bit of banter and piss taking but if you are going to start saying certain things about me, deal with facts please.

 

[pes4lyfe]

ya know arshavin out of sorts or not I really dont see how you can slate him for poor defensive ability at the goal.

I mean you wouldnt expect Vermalen to get the ball on the wing beat two players and score a goal. If it were rosicky or Walcott in that situation would they have defended any better?

Arshavin has been crap but you cant slate him again on 15mins in left back vs man utd.

Arshavin can only be judged on when he is playing up front or support striker.

jonney vs Pughy is soo damn funny! bunch of nutters !!!! All jokes a side you lots seem like good online mates! we all get ahead of ourselves at times I`ve never seen anyone win over jonney or brought reasoning to him ..Look at Bob he`s been trying it for years now

He's a good harmless lad. Just drives me nuts at times.

 

[jonneymendoza]

Back on topic. About Wenger, Like i said before, the longer he stays, the worse it gets and harder it is to atract a beter manager and players.

2-3 years ago i wanted wenger out and that was the perfect time to get rid. why? because back then we was still regarded as a top side challenging for titles and getting very far in the CL. we also ha da fantastic squad with the likes of fabregas, gallas, nasri, gilberto, Eboue etc etc and any manager, morinho, anchelloti, etc etc would have loved to managed that arsenal side.

Now look at our squad, fucking djurou? a sub par ramsey?, mertasaka? chamack? the list goes on. who would want to manage this average side. And what if we dont make CL football? Who in gods name would want to manage a europa team? What good world class players would wanna join us too?

Wenger has fucked up the team big time, making it worse each season by not spending the money buying good players and getting rid of at least one of our best players each season.

Why would RVP stay with us if we dont make top 4? And if he goes, then what? What world class striker would want to join us? a club not playing CL football?

See where i am getting at? We replaced nasri, fabregas and clichy with what? santos? gevinho and arteta? None of those players are as good as the players they replaced. And why did we get rid of Eboue? He was our most versatile player at arsenal. yes he made a few mistakes here and there ut his work rate and love for the club was second to none. always gave it is all, more then fucking Ashavin, Djurough and that idiot Merteska could ever dream of.

Cant you see, Wenger is making our team worse each year and the longer you back him and the longer he stays, the worse it gets. no CL football is looking VERY likely. And again i ask you wenger fans these simple questions:

Why would RVP stay with us if we dont make top 4?
What world class/decent player would join a europa side?
What good manager would want to manage Djurough and co?

 

[Milanista]

A lot of managers find the challenge of going back to the top appealing... Ancelotti waited for a real 'project', so ended up at PSG, although he was close to Roma. Both are Europa level. I think you undervalue Arsenal's stature too much.

 

[gerd]

Jonney, sometimes you really are clueless. I'm not saying that Djourou is world class (far from), but why did he struggle that much against Man Utd? Because Oxlade Chamberlin (or whatever his name is) did not do his defensive tasks like he should have done. So after the equaliser it made sense to replace him..this turned out bad, but you can't blame Wenger for that.

Trust me, without Wenger this Arsenal team will fight for Euro League places, lots of players will leave and they will be replaced by lesser players...

 

[jonneymendoza]

Lots of players have already left gerd for lesser players. And it will continue once RVP goes so i fail to see your point.

And now you are taking pot shots at me gerd? thought you are better then that. guess not.

Djourou struggled because he is a shit CB and when you play a shit CB in a full back positions, even i would have a field day going up against him all day long.

Dunno why you are slagging off Chamberlin defencive duties because he was far better then Ashavin. i remembered a few tackles in the first half no the left side. Chamberlin was on the left, Djourough on the right so wtf are you on about? how the fuck can Chamberlin cover both left and right flanks? he was mainly on the left! And its ironic that vermahlen wasnt troubled much thanks to Chamberlin's defencive duties. dont know what game you was watching mate

This type of post is why I just can't agree with what you say overall Jonney.

Again you seem to think you are some sort of messiah about predicting things and telling everybody what was right years ago?! is the world going to end this December Jonney?

and I don't know if you know it or not, but you keep on attacking 'Fickle Wenger fans' or however you like to call it.

How are Wenger fans Fickle? Fickle means to change frequently their opinions. If anything, us Wenger Fans are anything but fickle. I am calling myself a Wenger fan because that is how people want to label people, but I am of course an Arsenal Fan.

You should stop attacking people that don't think your way, it comes across as arrogant and that is why people react negatively to your posts.

Djourou is a good defender whne in his right position, so is Mertsacker (I don't know why you think he is so shit?)

So there are no managers at Europa League clubs? What did AVB win before he went to Chelsea? also you mention him coming to manage us, he isn't doing that great for Chelsea is he? a club with much more money than us.

We replaced Nasri, Fabregas and Clichy with players that actually want to be at our club, which I think is a fucking great thing to have. Santos was playing very well for us before he got injured, getting better with every game, I think Gervinho has had a good start to his Arsenal Career and Arteta has been great for us and is hungry to play for us.

You slate Ramsey for his last couple of games, because it certainly can't be for what he has done for the rest of the season, because he has been great and is getting a bit burnt out as he is still young, but has been covering for Wilshere and has done a very good job.

We have had many great strikers over the years so I am sure we will get over Van Persie leaving.

Lots of good managers are managing Europa teams and less and as you keep saying who was Arsene Managing before he came to Arsenal, were they in the Champs league or Europa league, were they even in a top league?

I don't know what your problem with Djourou is?! because he can't handle playing as a right back which isn't his position? because that is not right. Anyway lots of managers would want to manage Arsenal and you severely underestimate this team.

I keep getting sucked into these conversations!!

I have been right so far with my predictions about our club since i wanted wenger sacked long ago. im no masiah and you dont even have to be massiah to see where things are heading and where we are going wrong.

You say we bought players who wants to be in the team but its that good enough? Fabregas diddnt want to be in the team last season yet still performed ALOT better then ramsey and arteta.

Modric is another example. his situation is far worse as modric has handed in a transfer request wanting out yet look at him now, forced to stay and still doing his job whether he wants to go or not.

My point? A world clas player such has fabregas or mordic will 9/10 still perform as they do if they wanted to be playing for the club as they are proffesional people giving there all for the club they are playing for.

You also said lots of managers are managing europa league sides? Wait a minute, when i wanted wenger out, you was saying how no one can replace wenger and that there is no good manager available, now all of a sudden there are loads that can take wengers place? Which one is it. is there lots of managers equally or better then wenger or is there none?


We will have to agree to disagre about ramsey, mertasaka and djurough ans the two defenders especially are useless. Ramsey is ok but he is a shadow of wilhsere and quite frankly no comparison to a half arsed fabregas.

edit:

im not attacking people. You can back wenger for all i care mate. everyone is entitled to back whoever they want for whatever reasons. i am just disagreeing with yours and others reasons and telling you why i do. im not here to change yours and others minds. i am here to express m views and opinions about wenger.

Me and you always have a healthy discussion without slagging each other off and use to be the same with gerd but now his taking pot shots at me now

More to follow..

To have been right we will need to get another manager in and see if he does better than Arsene, until then you are right about nothing

Fabregas said himself that he wasn't playing his best last season and found it hard to motivate himself. Again you are really underestimating how Arteta and Ramsey have played this season, along with Song they have played very well and were part of the very reason we got upto around 4th again. As a unit our midfield was very good, now with Arteta out and Ramsey needing a rest we are suffering abit and with no fullbacks and Central defenders playing out of position.

I don't think he performed ALOT better than Ramsey and Arteta anyway.

Modric is a different player and different circumstances, I don't think you can really compare the two. Our position with Fab was so much different with him being at the club so long, his relationship with Wenger. We could have made him stay, but would that have been better for us? I don't think so, we would just have a player that resented playing for us after a while.

The same will happen to Modric, if he really wants to leave and they keep not letting him, then he will not be the same player and his heart will not be in it. This season was the first indication of him wanting to go, if it keeps happening it won't end well for Spurs and they will have to cut their losses.

I pointed out that there are managers that would be willing to manage Europa league sides as all the Europa league teams have managers (Because you were saying who would want to manage us if Wenger goes now?)....I never said any were better than Wenger

Some might come in and do better who knows, but again I think the chances of that are slim and the more likely scenario is that we will do alot worse. But I don't profess to know everything

Ramsey is a great player and plays a different role to Wilshere (Although he has had to play a similar role in Wilsheres abscence), maybe he is not as good at the moment (Although I think he has the potential to be as good if not better), but in partnership with Wilshere I think they can dominate midfields for many years to come.

You are very short sighted when it comes to players I feel, their last couple of games are what makes a player, but the players you slag off, have done so much more and are much more effective than you know.

 

[jonneymendoza]

Ramsey is an OK player, dont get me wrong, but he is no wilshere or even fabregas. i am more concerned with everyone else minus rvp, shezney, song, vermahlen and chambalain.

The rest are sub par at best. not good enough to help us take arsenal back to the top 4 nevermind good enough to win trophies IMO.

If you rate Djurou, what decent CL side would he just walk into the first team?

The Ox has only had a handful of games, yet you are putting him on the same lines as Song, Vermaelen etc? lets see what he is like in the long term. I really hope he can play like that all of the time, but again he is very young, it is not right for him to be relied on, the same as Walcott.

Walcott everyone is thinking he should be a world beater by now, he is still young and still learning the game.

I think Djourou is good and not shit as you make out. I don't know all of the players in the Champions league teams. But as a Central Defender he is a good player.

I still say with this team:

Sagna....Kosc....Verm......Gibbs
......Song......Arteta........
.........Wilshere............
Walcott.............Gervinho
........Van Persie...........

We can beat any team in the league and are more than a match for them, you can swap Arteta for Ramsey, Kosc with Merts or Djourou, Gibbs for Santos etc. We have Frimpong and Coq coming through well, Jenkinson, The Ox.

We need someone to swap Van Persie for when needed and also Gervinho. The person we swap for Gervinho would be good if they could play on the left and right and we have a very good team and not Average imo.

So maybe 3 players, a Striker, an Attacking Forward/Winger type and probably a replacement for Diaby (as it doesn't look like he will ever be fit). This isn't the doomsday scenario you are pointing at Jonney and therefore is why I am still behind Wenger.

Jonney, i don't know what 'taking pot shots' means, but i can read in a context and i know it wasn't meant very positive.

I like you a lot, but sometimes discussing with you is a litle tiresome (and that is the reason why i thought Puh6y's comment was rather funny...i should have written "the most funny" instead of "the best post"...if i hurt your feelings with that: i'm sorry).

It's just that you and dags (who i also like and respect) are for me the very archetypical English fans: rather pessimistic and sometimes a litle bit "blind" (Dalglish is now Liverpool's manager and IMO he's failing, yet fans like dags will never see that...). Fans like you and dags are the first to cry wolf when a player leaves your club, but also the quickest to judge players and say they should go. If after a couple of seasons they turn out to be very good players and they leave, then you are calling traitors. Why should a player be loyal to the fans if the fans are not loyal to that particular player?

And about Wenger: we will never agree. He is IMO the greatest manager ever. Although he won less than Ferguson, he really revolutionized the English game. And he did that on a rather modest budget compared to most other clubs. Arsenal followed Wenger when he said the big priority was a new stadium. Wenger had the audiacity to think long term, yet the fans think short term and want immediate success. I know millions of fans who would give an arm for a manager like Wenger or the success of Arsenal under Wenger. You know i'm a Spurs fan, and right now Spurs is doing better...but i'm jealous of what Arsenal achieved under Wenger and this with the best football in the world over a prolonged period of time (Barcelona play better football right now, but they have had very bad periods, only Arsenal always played very good football).

So let's sort this out: i am not taking pot shots at you (whatever that may be) in if it did came over like that: i'm truly sorry, but i never meant to hurt your feelings.

maybe swap rvp for walcott.

Sagna....Kosc....Verm......Gibbs
......Song......Arteta........
.........Wilshere/Ramsey............
Ox/Walcott..............Gervinho
........Van Persie/Walcott..........

above should be our team IMO

 

[BobbyBox]

Yeah it would be nice to see Walcott have a go down the middle and see if he really will be any good there.

you called me childish mate. thats why. And about crying wolf. no mate i tell it has it is and since asking for wenger to be sacked years ago, i have bene spot on with my predictions that arsenal wont win nothing under wenger again and how we will continue to lose top players(like we did with hleb, flamimi etc and now fabregas/nasri) and make same defencive mistakes.

Wenger "use" to be a great manager. now is not. he aint that great anymore. far from it.

Not once have i slagged off any of our players who turned good like fabregasm hleb, nasri etc etc. you know me. my main issue is wenger mate.

i have countless times provided u and others a lot of reasons why wenger is not right for us that has absolutely nothing to do with £££ and more to do with Wengers tactical and manageral ability.

You only have to assest last sundays game to show u one of the flaws Wenger has as a tactical manager.

Lets take off our best player on the bitch for our worse inform player in a high prolific game.

Yeah it would be nice to see Walcott have a go down the middle and see if he really will be any good there.

That is one of the reasons why i dont like wenger. he doesnt play his players in the proper roles. he should ditch this 433 and go back to 442 with rvp and walcott upfront

That is something I can agree on, It would be nice to try something different and maybe go back to a 442.

Maybe Chamack will be better playing with Van Persie together up front aswell? the last couple of games he seems to hold up the ball pretty well, so he could probably at least provide more for other players in a 442.

But the wingers we now have I think will find it hard having to sit deeper in midfield?

 

[DrPhil]

Again you seem to think you are some sort of messiah about predicting things and telling everybody what was right years ago?! is the world going to end this December Jonney?

and I don't know if you know it or not, but you keep on attacking 'Fickle Wenger fans' or however you like to call it.

You're kidding...

JM is attacking fickle fans??? Watching JM talking about Wenger is like watching that scene in Lord of the Rings when schizophrenic Gollum is debating with himself.

JM1: We should get rid of Wenger. He's crap and we'll never win anything.

JM2: NOOooo precious! He is our friend!!!

We need to nip this in the bud now, no Jonney bashing anymore please.
