Up the Arse! Goons Thread

Ox will also be back next game.

 

[NTRabbit]

Even sooner then. I just don't think we'll buy something that doesn't really fit just because the things that do fit aren't available. Wenger's history in the market supports that.

 

[Cruyff14]

If we lose Giroud we are proper ****ed.

 

[NTRabbit]

If we lose Giroud we are proper ******.

No disputing that. There's just not a lot to be done about it except "hope that we don't"

 

[windyhill]

With Theo, he's always half a chance, Ox ? No, not reliable yet, almost put Gnarby ahead of him. We need bodies ASAP .

 

[Latro]

There is very little difference between Giroud and Bendtner at the moment.

 

[glenferry23]

Was just thinking about the pecking order. Gnabry would possibly be slightly ahead of the Ox at this point, simply due to his form vs Ox's significant absence from the game.

Whilst we do have other wide options like Rosicky, Podolski, Wilshere etc, Theo offered genuine pace that as raised earlier has been exploited well with the right link up.

 

[Benno_900]

Shattered for Theo - has become so important for us.

Ox or Gnabry need to have a special few months to take us to the title.

There is very little difference between Giroud and Bendtner at the moment.

That's because Giroud has been utter crap lately and needs to pick his game up. Hopefully it was just fatigue and he can start getting back to his best.

 

[glenferry23]

Bentdner really has added something to the team in recent weeks. Shame he too got injured. Never thought I'd be saying this.

This is the reason we need to get a new striker- it's not just the back up for Giroud, it's the guy that takes Bendtners back up spot as he just won't be with us next year.

I'm certain that Arsene has a wide net out there.

And who knows... Maybe we'll get the guy that Giroud is sitting on the bench for. God knows we'd be in with a better chance of a trophy if this was the ultimate goal.

Won't get anyone like that until the end of season window, which is sure is what Wenger is planning ahead for after Jose yanked Ba on us last time around. You get youth, depth and cover players in January, it's not the time of year genuine star players move.

 

[Benno_900]

We must target Diego Costa in the summer.

If we don't get him, Chelsea or City will.

I want him.

 

[NTRabbit]

Need another keeper too, rumour has it Viviano is going to cut his loan spell short and return to Italy this window, and then Fabianski is out of contract end of season.

 

[NTRabbit]

According to the Ox himself on twitter, he just had his "first day back at full training with the boys [in 5 months]", so I honestly think even being on the bench for our next game will be a stretch for him, with starting out of the question.

 

[glenferry23]

He'll take a couple of weeks to get back into the swing of things. We should be okay for the next couple of games (barring any other injury). Giroud back, and a few options to replace Theo on the right in Gnabry, Rosicky, Wilshere etc and then Ox to add to that list.

And then Diaby!

Is he a new signing? Or is he like a new signing?

 

[AG]

Diaby can play up front. Can hold the ball up and has a shot on him.

Make it happen.

 

[NTRabbit]

Diaby won't be back this season, that idea was knocked on the head by the medical staff already

 

[glenferry23]

Diaby won't be back until 2019

Fixed

 

[moomba]

But he'll be like a new signing when he does come back

 

[glenferry23]

Rosicky likely to sign a contract extension. Lovely.

Ramsey an outside chance for Tuesday morning, but probably not worth the risk just yet. Same with Ox. Would like to see Gnabry again on the right. Giroud back to CF.

 

[Latro]

Wenger ruled Ramsey out but said the Ox will be available.

John Cross said Diaby has had another set back.

 

[Cruyff14]

15m Euro bid rejected for Griezmann.

 

[glenferry23]

His release clause is €30m apparently.
