i think poldi is our second highest paid player. that said, i'm cool with him sticking around if he's cool with the role he's played this year.

my thought process this summer is, could this player be an impact player on the best team in the world? because that's what all this Emirates Stadium stuff was for. we wanted to compete with the best long term. now we have the financial resources to do so, so we need to move on from our past years. wenger needs to be a tad more ruthless (not a whole lot more) than he has been.

i don't think poldi's shown the ability to consistently be an impact player from the LW or CF position in a starting role. I think he can still be an impact sub and a starter against smaller clubs.

The problem is shipping him off and dicking around like usual just find out we put a stupid bid in and get left with an even less quality player. I know we have the money, but i dont expect them to go throwing it around on multiple players. Looking at Bayern as the best team rt now, how many players on this Arsenal team could replace the guys they have? Prob not too many.

And there's definitely room for a player like that.

He comes on in the 80th minute, and the defense doesn't close him down, and he can get us a cheap goal like that.

I just like him. He's not going to win you a title, but he can help you.

Didn't know that, but agree.
