Arsenal OUTS 2023 😞

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Surely not 6'1. That's an inch less than Henry. Maybe 5'11 at most?

USArsenal

I dont know.. I just looked on Wikipedia. Lol. It said 6'1"..

Whatever he is, he's around Toure's height here, and Toure was apparently around 1.78m, so feels about right. Not really tall but tall enough. Definitely nowhere near being short though.

Dom

Hleb was definitely not 6'1

Is he editing his own Wikipedia page these days?

Dom

6'1 Alex Hleb next to 6'2 Fabregas

HomeSteak

Dom fuck them both. Pricks

Mirth

Dom can’t believe they got bullied by Bolton!

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Dom haha. I think Fabregas is 5'10 so Hleb likely is too.

Lukazan

Mirth To be fair we beat them at their ground 3-1 with 10 men, Hleb and Fabregas in midfield, and 3-1 the season before in the FA cup, again Hleb in midfield.

We were victims to a hell of a lot of dirty shit back then, the 'kick 'em because they're soft' mantra was a factor in every game and worst of all, one that was completely accepted by the refs too. And that's why we had 3 players in 3 years with snapped tibias and fibulas, feet dangling at the ankle. Disgusting.

Speedster

Klaus

Yea and he has a weird technique to first touch the ball towards the opponent.

Most small players first touch is to evade. Since you can spin quicker.

He literally showed the ball to the opposition and wanted them to commit so he shift it past them. But in the prem you're allowed more contact so everyone just blocked him with their upper body and he'd just threw himself the the floor wanting a foul.

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Speedster one of the most garbage attacking players in general play I've ever seen at the club.

Good final ball ability, but he had to be spoon-fed into such positions because he couldn't get to them himself.

Klaus

Speedster Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert Of all the great midfielders that have gone from Primeira in recent years we somehow settled on this guy. Their own fans said he wasn't even the best midfield talent at the club at the time.

HomeSteak

He won't find anything across europe. Not with that salary, his boyhood team said fuck off with that shit, there is not a single team dumb in enough to pay him his wages. Maybe we'll get lucky for once and he will go to the Saudis.

USArsenal

Maybe he will take reduced wages.. I would love to get 30m for him, but i don't see it.

Qwiss

USArsenal I'd be happy if we got £10-12m for him.

JazzG

We need to send him on loan really, not recovering much money right now. He started to come good from what I hear at Porto so maybe a loan to Germany or Spain to build his profile up a bit.

Physically I don't think he's up to it here but think he can do alright in different league.

USArsenal

Qwiss

Well, ideally we would love to recoup what we paid, but i think we'd just love to get him off the books.

Burnwinter

Thought Vieira's wages were only meant to be €30–40k (after tax) per week. It's a good bit but it's not megabucks. Anyone hear different?

Pepe LeFrits

Burnwinter Anyone hear different?

I have not. It shouldn't be difficult to move him on.

USArsenal

Yeah, i have seen 45 per week.. I would think that should be pretty easy to move. Thats peanuts compared to many others.
