Pfft, Falcao? Are you sure he is good enough? Well, I suppose he'll just have to do. 

To be honest I'm quite sure we can afford him, its just the retarted board that wont spend any money on good players. Cazorla was a good buy, Podolski hasnt stepped up yet and Giroud is way off.. We dont have a proper striker. Best we got is Walcott, who by the way, plays pretty damn well as a Striker, but Arsene wont give him a chance.. He's acting like it's the garden.. Walcott said he wanted to leave so he wont let him play.. Hate to say it, but, after all this years, it's time for Arsene to leave.

Easy? You lost to Norwich, come on now..

You still had easy oponents compared to Arsenal. We already played all of the 3 big clubs ( Chelsea, City and Utd ).

And how many of those have you won?

What? That's a completely unrelated point. I openly admit Arsenal's season thus far has been disappointing - but we've had a much harder opening fixture list against both Chelsea and Manchested United who have been on blazing form as of late.

And how many of those have you won?

A fair point, but I don't rate your chances either - from what I've seen of City so far this season they've been lackluster and blunt.

I'm sure we can afford him as well, but I don't think our stupid fucking board will allow us to spend such an amount. And even if we did come to an agreement on his transfer price, his wage is a whole other issue.

Chelsea will probably snap him up come January, unfortunately. I hate to say it, but given the class of Falcao and his status as one of the best strikers in the world at the moment, I'm sure he'd much rather go to the European Champions.

The only way we'd get him is if we're willing to spend big, and I mean BIG. We have to offer him a package that he couldn't refuse. Sure, some would argue that spending that much on a single player is ridiculous - and I'd usually agree - but given our trophy drought and policy of selling our best players throughout the seasons, I'd say it's about time to make a statement and instill a world class player into our squad.

If not Falcao atleast a decent Striker.. Giroud has been doing nothing so far.

He equalized for France against Spain.

I mean for Arsenal.. He's been completly shit so far. I do think he has talent in him, tho.


Arsenal Vs Schalke(If thats how you say it?) tonight, lets hope for a win after few games with losses.

[Rick.]

Hopefully Manchester City wins today... It's been one day in hell for us in the Champions league.

Post Merge: November 06, 2012, 10:43:46 pmSecond half was totally off, although the Ref was totally biased and called everything off-side. our last kick should have been a penalty, as they were grabbing Balotelli's whole arm down.

It was funny watching Mancini and the whole City squad yell at all the Ref together at the end..

Was a good game, but not what I expected.

City are out of the champions leauge..for them to get through it must be a miracle.

Yeah, he did scored a beautiful header, but did you see the 1st goal? He's slow action almost made us miss that, luckily theo bolt was around to grab the ball and put it in.

Oh well, the referee was totally bias anyways.

By looking at their playing, looks like City got some of their form back which is good news concerning we are playing Spurs Sunday. And Silva should be coming back soon.

ManC wont be successful unless Mancini leaves it.
