the fat lesbian wont sign until he has assurances the club will offload denilson, bendtner and almunia.

If only it were that simple!

Nah, I think there is something really special about this kid and he has shown a positive trajectory. If you think Nasri pre-Porto and Nasri post-Porto, you see a player who has come a long way. If you look at what he did before January, he is the closest thing in this league to a Messi-type player. Obviously, he's not that caliber, but his ability to make things for himself is valuble and we need to find ways for him to exploit more often and more consistently

Captain

It's nothing that hasn't been done by Reyes and Arshavin before, particularly the latter.

For my money, Hleb was a much better player during his time here too.

Claudius

Hleb for me was a bench player, to be brought off if we needed to protect a lead due to his amazing ability to hold the ball and careful distribution. However, as a forward, he lacked impact as a scorer and provider of the final ball.

reyes was at least as good for us as nasri has been, probably better.

Claudius

Reyes had a lot of promise but nothing came of it. I had high hopes for that boy. He had that Lebron James (lack of) heart that stopped him from being a great Gooner

The Independent is reporting that Nasri is staying but not signing a new contract.
Doing his time here on his paltry £55k a week before he becomes a free agent at the end of next season.

Wenger hasn't lost his love of rolling the dice then.
This better not be true.

We won't let that happen.

If he doesn't sign, we'll sell him.

He wasn't played as a forward at his time here though so don't see your point. He was by far much better than Nasri and was more involved in the majority of play. He was never a bench player too. I am also inclined to think Reyes was far better if you weigh in his contributions when he was here.

Hleb (and Klaus will agree) for me was an annoying anaemic sickly looking cunt who made Diaby look like a snappy 1-2 pass and move player, he couldn't score in a brothel with a fistful of $50 notes and I hated him before it was fashionable.
It came as no surprise to me that he pulled a Cashly on us, I was delighted he ended up at Birmingham and even more delighted when he was injured and missed probably the only trophy they will ever win for another 50 years.

Hleb -the way his socks looked on his puny legs, that used to irritate me.
I know - completely irrelevant in this thread

He had his uses and was effective when playing alongside Cesc who I believe made him look twice the player that he actually is.

I read yesterday that Chelsea had a bid rejected for Modric . United are also still in the search for a creative attacking mid.

Again, I think we are underestimating how difficult it would be to replace Nasri with a player of like skills, and who would bed into the team, and the premiership asap.

Indeed.

There's so much talk about Nasri's contract, but what's the deal with Clichy? Are we even negotiating with him?

Nela

Well that's because we probably aren't that interested in keeping Clichy.

Captain

Or rather because Clichy's agent isn't a loud mouthed, conniving buffoon.

Nela

Clichy has always been classy and respectful. And I appreciate him for that. But I honestly don't think we're that interested in keeping him.
