I bet hes an EXCELLENT header of the ball.

Have you guys watched any of the pre-season matches ? It looks like Wenger is playing many young players that we didn't see last season in Premier League.

Will these young guys be playing this next season regularly ?

I'm curious to find out what role Giroud and Podolski play . .

Juventus Puts Together $110 Million Van Persie Package: Roundup - Businessweek

holy ******* ****.

I wonder if he/ his people overvalued him, considering there's only three known clubs in the reckoning.

phelan · 08-01-2012, 04:47 PM

I think he absolutely overvalues himself, or at least his agent talked him into it, considering his injury prone record, and the fact that he really has only one outstanding season under his belt.

The more time passes by, the more I think we will see 'last year of Cesc'-esque performances from RvP. I would be beside myself if we sold to ManShitty.

cow · 08-02-2012, 10:11 AM

I'm over the whole thing. I just don't want a guy who doesn't want to be there holding up the team & then leaving for free next season.

I don't *THINK* he'd not give his all if he were to stay around, but when one's head-- no matter how far back-- isn't fully there, it shows.

Besides, he made his position pretty untenable. If he were to stay, anything he does not spectacularly will be met with some pretty sharp vitriol.

Red370 · 08-03-2012, 05:24 AM

Word on the strasse is that we signed Santi Cazorla, he's already confirmed it on his twitter, so the deal is done. I for one, am pretty excited about this. The guy can play anywhere, we're overencumbered on the wings, which has been his position at Malaga and the Spanish team, but with Jacky out, I have a feeling he'll be filling in the attacking midfield position. As far as RvP is concerned, he's dead to me, after showing his lack of club loyalty, he'll be just another Nasri to me. And that sucks to say that because I always respected him as a player and person.

Looks like our attacking force will be a force to be reckoned with this year, however, I wanted at least one defensive midfield signing and another defender, hoping that the Sahin loan goes through so i'll feel a bit better about the center of the pitch.

cow · 08-03-2012, 10:45 AM

The Cazorla twitter page was fake, apparently. Still, though, it seems something's close.

phelan · 08-03-2012, 01:33 PM

i do not buy into any information unless it is from the arsenal.com website.

Just picked up my new boots. Adidas Predator LZ's

They feel great. Kicked around for a very short time this afternoon in them and you can actually kinda feel the "lethal zones" work a little. Sure they wont make you play like Messi but the pass zone feels great as does the Drive and Sweet Spot zone. Didint notice too much with the first touch or dribble zones but it is all kinda gimicky when it boils down. They are a very light boot, def a mix between the Predator and the AdiZero I would say. When holding the F50s and the Predators at the store I couldnt tell a dif in weight. Here are a few pics.

Here is a little detail on some of the "zones" the top zone is the first touch, you can see the little slits in the rubber that are supposed to cushion when receiving the ball from the air. The wider ones off to the bottom left are part of the "drive zone" and have a kinda hatch pattern to them for added grip. Off to the far left side you can see some of the "sweet spot" zone which aids in putting spin on crosses and what not and off to the far right you can see a little of the "dribble zone", my least favorite.

Red370 · 08-07-2012, 02:53 AM

I bet those are awesome, but I was a bit disappointed when they went to a synthetic upper, i'm a traditional leather boot wearer myself and I hope that they eventually come out with a kangaroo leather version, then i'll be sold.

Just wanted to let my fellow Gooners know, I'm going to watch Arse play Cologne on Sunday, i'm so fvcking pumped its ridiculous. I'm going to stay after the match and try and have my kit signed by as many players as possible. I'm hoping to see Cazorla on the pitch and i'm looking forward to seeing how Poldi plays against his former club. Also curious if RvP will get some pitch time. Anywho, BE JEALOUS!

Red370 · 08-07-2012, 04:24 AM

DONE!

phelan · 08-07-2012, 08:30 AM

“The same with Cesc, he said the same, that it was a great club. He said I would be very happy here and I would adapt easily. I can feel that even though I’ve only been here a few hours!”

one year later...and right now I think Cesc is more of a Gunner than Robin is. ridiculous, huh?

i miss seeing cesc in the red and white

Podolski + Giroud + Cazorla = £36m.
