true dat

I just got finished giving a verbal reacharound to the Milan thread about Sheva, and I have to say something similar about Onnnree. Having him in any other colors just doesnt look right. Hell, not to sound like a candidate for "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" but he didnt even seem in place with that cranberry pruce number you all had.

Anyway, besides the point. The identification is just too strong. Vieira seemed to be similar, but he was mostly about himself. Henry is Arsenal uber alles, and it comes out in how he is both a leader and ambassador for Arsenal. For example, I would probably wretch if i saw JT in another kit, because he is becoming our Henry or our Keane, etc. You cant imagine the club without him, and though it never got published, I wrote an article about how his absence would be a huge loss to the English game, both in excitement and publicity.

Bottom line is I am actually happy that he is staying a Gunner. To get to watch the guy is a treat, and to compete against him and Arsenal really bring the best out of Chelsea. So all that stammering can just be summed up in a simple "congrats"

cant wait:

walcott with WC experience will cause us to have 4 solid strikers: henry, van persie, adebayor and walcott.

THAT, my friends, will be quite crazy.

adding in the fact that reyes can also be a striker is great.

also adding that djorou has wc experience also. and eboue as main right back. WOW!

Woh. Could be a f*cking brilliant signing.

Won't believe it until we confrim it mind.

He'll add great depth to our team.

But we still need a defensive minded midfielder, a centreback and goalie.

another DM, really? : i assume you'll play with one next season, Gilberto is defo. 1st choice, Diaby is a quality back-up (Viera on crack) and now that the LB situation is resolved, won't flamini go back to his normal role as a DM.

Arsenal do need a CB, but should it be a definate 1st choice, or another youngster with potential. Senderos is finding his feet, and even with a fit Sol it would be a shame to break up the Toure/Senderos partnership. I think they need a new 4th choice to replace Cygan, someone with his professionalism and versatility...except better.

Almunia needs to be lost, so should Lehmann stay no.1. If he does i would like to see Wenger bring in a English understudy and as a backup, although i can't think of who - maybe Scott Carson.

Yeh we need another DM Diaby is going to be injuried for ages. Flamini is a great squad player but hes not going to be the next Vieira.

We should only get a new CB if Sol leaves.

We need an understudy for Lehmann who can take over if he goes out of form or at the end of next season.

im definately excited about the rosicky signing and it sounds complete but not yet announced officialy. Wow what a great team Arsenal will have next season but like its been said if campbell leaves we need a CB and a young GK, Djourou could probably play Cb after getting experience in WC but we'll see

Gunners linked with double Palace raid

Arsenal have been linked with moves for Crystal Palace duo Andy Johnson and Gabor Kiraly.
England striker Johnson has become one of the summer transfer market's hottest properties, and he has been the subject of bids from Bolton Wanderers, Everton and Wigan Athletic.

It is thought that Bolton currently have the highest offer on the table at £8million, and Arsenal are yet to make a bid at all thus far.
However, Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is believed to be a fan of the pacy forward, and is keen to add him to his attacking options at the Emirates Stadium. Wenger is also looking for a better level of competition for first choice goalkeeper Jens Lehmann, and experienced Hungarian international Kiraly is keen to return to the Premiership. Reports suggest that Wenger could launch a bid for both players as he looks to build his squad for next season.


Gabor Kiraly is a great keeper! :)

I don't want Arsenal to sign Kiraly, we need someone younger a long-term replacerment for lehmann he is still good, we don't need another fossil keeper

:ewan: bye you'll be sorry when we kick ass next season

No "Thanks Bobby", for the 6 years and the dedication he showed for your club?.....You people really take the biscuit for ingratitude. You must be the most fickle fans that I know of. Jesus, you wouldn't even have a 49 games unbeaten record if it wasn't for his dive at Portsmouth. :kader:

i'm upset that hes leaving i didn't mean that he wasn't a great player for us. i'm just saying good players leave and we somehow end up doing good. patrick left us and we got to the cl final and got into 4th place in the league. i'll miss pires and i wish he would of excepted our deal but i can undestand that he wants more stability and went for a 2 year deal with villarreal instead.
