Up the Arse! Goons Thread

Away to Munich, away to Spurs and then away to Chelsea in a row. At least there are some decent breaks in between, but going to be season defining for sure. Also away to those cvnts at Stoke at the start of March and end the month with a visit from City.

At least we take on Liverpool at home in the cup game. Still believe thats our best chance to break the trophy drought. One of City and Chelsea will also be knocked out next round. Interesting to see what Wenger does with the team rotation, with 4 games in 11 days.

Hoo boy. It's going to be brutal.

UCL QF / Everton Away are the first games in April.

We'll be right.

Looks like Arsenal are announcing the new Puma deal tonight.

Yep, no details yet though, from the BBC...

"Arsenal announce a new long-term partnership with Puma. The sportswear manufacturer will become the Premier League leader's kit sponsor from July 2014. No figures have been released, but the deal is described as "the biggest in Puma and Arsenal's history."
The Gunners' chief executive Ivan Gazidis says: "This represents another important step forward in Arsenal's progression on and off the pitch."

and

"Arsene [Wenger] will be extending (his contract) with us and at right time we will make that announcement," says Gunners' chief executive Ivan Gazidis.

The Wenger extension was always a matter of time. The Puma kits did look pretty decent from the leaked pics a few months ago, might have to take a deep breath though before putting it on.

Ramsey and Arteta should be back in the squad for Southampton. Wilshere probably out.

Here's another pic of the Puma home kit

Not bad.

Personally not an actual fan of Puma, much prefer Nike, but damn the money (30m a year over 5 years) is pretty damn good.

"The new agreement dwarfs the current kit deal with Nike, which is worth £55m over seven years and expires at the end of next season." - Is this true? Surely we weren't getting just ~7.9m a year?

And credits where its due, the mirror were actually right about something (May 2013) http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/arsenal-agree-puma-kit-deal-1874661

That's a mega kit deal, I hope Puma makes something us average slobs can wear without feeling even more desperately inferior to Giroud

France Football saying that Sagna will accept a 3 year contract worth 5 million Euros a season.

I'd be happy if we offered him the captaincy to be honest to go with it.

Per better be the ****ing captain next season.

 

[The Filth Wizard]

Per better be the ******* captain next season.

Lol. You're bang on. I remember just before Per turned up thinking Bacary should be skipper but yes, I've been running with it too long to forget how much I love the sack.

 

[NTRabbit]

 

[glenferry23]

Sagna won't be captain. Mertesacker should be as Benno already mentioned.

There's also reports Latro of Sagna seeing out his contract with us but going back to France, PSG or Monaco potentially offering approx £120k wages. He's currently on about £60k at Arsenal.

Late to the party bitch

That was disappointing.

Now the two months of death begins

Clearly the Arteta Flamini combo doesn't work. Podolski should have come in way earlier. Cheering for spurs tomorrow

That was woeful from Flamini. Ridiculous.
