We need wm72 in here as the Serie A sage that he is.

Oh, page 200...

Mk screw that I typed too much there to be the last post on a page.

'm sure you all have seen the Jovetic rumors running around. The latest ones are stating he has already agreed to personal terms with the club (~100,000/week) and 24mil fee but whether or not the deal goes through is dependent upon our CL status for next season. blah blah I know it's likely not true rumors etc, but have any of you watched him a decent amount?

Who would you most compare him to in style (out of commonly seen strikers or even compared to other EPL/CL fwds)? y'alls thoughts on whether he would do a better job of filling RVPs shoes?

So what would happen if Arsenal bought Jozy?

Just a question. Don't shoot me.

Everyone laughs, he flops, we're stuck with him, we loan him out to someone.

He would end up about the same as Park Chu Young.

I'd get a Jozy jersey. That's about it.

I wanted us to get Dempsey last year, fwiw.

Well that was frustrating. Logically, I've been onboard the jettisoning of Sagna in the summer. After that match, I'm emotionally ready as well.

We no longer control our own destiny. If Spurs beat Chelsea, we could be toast.

Rosicky and Ramsey might've been our two best players today. Unfortunate they were sacrificed.

Poldi at CF was slightly better than it was last time. Still not good.

Ankle still bothering him. Funny, if we kept RVP we prob win the league. Assuming we still brought everyone else in.

Arsenal is Arsenal. Even though wenger seems to make dumber decisions as he ages, im still amazed how we can compete wit spending so little.

probably not. though we'd be comfortably in CL range. likely second. then he'd have just left in the offseason for free and gone to ManU and we'd still be trophy-less.

Sagna was inhumanely bad today. Just aggressively terrible. I hate him.

Koscielny played almost flawlessly and Ramsey was pretty solid again.

Rambo played two bad passes, one of which he slipped, and wrongly picked out Poldi instead of Theo. Besides that, thought he was wonderful. Had a great bit of skill and an excellent through ball to Poldi and Theo that deserved a goal, but I think the two attackers confused themselves.

Honestly thought everyone but Sagna and Poldi played well. Subs deflated us, but they didn't play poorly. We still haven't figured out how to pick the lock once we get it to the 18.

Rosicky never should have been taken off especially with poldi playing poorly and jack still out of great form

I'd have taken Poldi off for Ox first and seen what that combo could've done. But alas.

Santi, when he played more centrally. Held the ball up better than Giroud typically does and poldi did today. I was kinda shocked.

Saw someone say it and I agree. You can tell Poldi is used to being a second striker.

Yep, I would love to see this formation but it won't happen.


----------Theo-----------
-Poldi---------------Ox--
--------Rosicky----------
---Arteta------Ramsey---

Eta I know it leaves Cazorla out which blows but he would sub in for Ro with Gerv subbing on for whichever of the front 3 is having a bad game

Im assuming man u wouldnt have been so good. Maybe we beat bayern maybe we turn double digit ties into wins. Hes one of the best trikers in the world. Giroud is not. Plain and simple.

I recall plenty of times shouting van pussy would have scored that.

Im tired of making 100 pases in front of the box and everyone afraid to shoot.

I am happy with the point and that man u didnt win the trophy at the emirates.

Thought kosc and rsmsey were our best players today.

Rosicky better start the last 3 games.
