Well why don't you contest them and try to disprove them- If you can. Thats how we do things around here not with name calling.
Go on then I'll have a stab
in subotic, pereira, banega, hazard
Out squillaci, almunia, bendtner
Hazard: Doubt Lille would sell us their two best players in one summer when they should be preparing for Champs LEague Subotic: a top defender. Therefore, Wenger is not interested Banega:went to Valencia for 18m Euros. Wenger will never pay more than that for a striker Pereira: we already have Denilson Pereira Neves, so we're covered
we need a left back. this guy is one of the few players who has enhanced his reputation at Copa America http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juan_Manuel_Vargas
He is a horrid defender. More of a wingback. Don't bother.
Who is Pereira? Maxi?
Edit: If its Alvaro you are talking about then yes. Brilliant LB
Yup alvaro. Top notch in my opinion
Was just listening to a podcast with Tim Vickery the football Vikapedia. He's one of two football analysts whose opinions I respect [the other is Andy Brassell]. When asked who the standout player in Copa America was up to last weekend, he said Juan Manuel Vargas. He was overflowing with praise for the guy. I wish we would take a look at him. He's better than a lot of the other left back options being thrown around, and would give us that offensive bite we have been lacking from our full backs since Lauren and Cole left.
Yeah he's an expert on Sth American football from an Anglo perspective isn't he.
Vickery talks even more shit than the spanish based journalists.
Vargas is a winger who's been 'transformed' into a LB. Defensively, he is very poor. He's enhanced his reputation at the Copa because he's been very good in an attacking sense. Definitely not someone we should be looking at for left back, we already have enough fast left backs who can't defend.
Vargas is a phenomenal player but his left-back days passed him a long time ago (mainly because he can't defend). He plays as a left-wing forward for Fiorentina, although Mihajlovic has also used him quite a bit as a left midfielder.

Other way round. He is a winger who's been 'transformed' FROM a left-back.

You're probably the only soul inthe world that holds this opinion.
As an example, he was on talksport in the week, they asked him about Campbell, his answer was that it isn't his region and he knows nothing about him and then he went on to describe not only his playing style but his personality. π
Well, he gave the opnion he had. But you do point out one of the things that I respect about Vickery. He is always clear where it's not his area of expertise. Too many talking heads like to ramble about all areas of football as though they are the master. I really respect guys who are very clear about their area of expertise and are very good at it.

The vast majority of us don't pretend to be masters. Maybe 2 of us, but that's about it π
Hilarious listening to Stuart Robson on ATVO talking about Malasia XI and Greentown players as if he's been watching them for years.
