Dr. Gonzo 8,198 Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Just now, Cicero said: Won more at Barca and in a shorter period. Sure, more trophies. And he played with some of the best players in the process. But in terms of individual performances, Henry at Arsenal was one of the best. Easily one of the best strikers to ever grace the English game, and was a massive part of some absolutely legendary Arsenal sides. It's a bit strange to hear his Arsenal career compared to the Ox's... one was a player that Wenger kicked on to be one of the best, and the other is a player with potential that Wenger failed to use correctly.

Subscriber Dan+ 1,919 Posted March 9, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted March 9, 2018 We were in pole position to sign Dragovic permanently in the summer but he's been dropped, very harshly so in my opinion, and a respected ITK reckons he's gone off the idea with Spurs, West Ham and Palace interested. I'm getting increasingly concerned that there's a player power issue at this club. Dragovic should be ahead of Morgan for me now. We've potentially put ourselves at square one in the centre half situation all for the sake of playing someone who isn't actually performing any better, regardless of the fact he's now 34. Think Morgan probably gets some over the top stick but I do think the time's come to replace him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaaay AFC 357 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 On 05/03/2018 at 19:16, Cicero said: Same goes with Ashley Cole, Henry, Fabregas, Hleb, Adebayor, Van Persie, Nasri, Clichy, Sagna, etc You're probably fishing here, but I'll bite. You could say honours wise they did better absolutely, but none of them were the same players performance wise after leaving apart from Cole and for a small period Van Persie and Henry. All the rest were far better at Arsenal, Hleb's career was an absolute nightmare after leaving and still says it was his biggest mistake leaving Arsenal. Sagna is laughable as well, we won more than City in his time there and he was nowhere near the player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been broken by the guy who was the first to break the news of us signing Kieta so it could be true, or it could be guess work. He’s saying Leicester gave us permission to talk to Ndidi whilst negotiations over a fee are ongoing. Whats he like anyway? I’ve watched a few extended highlight reels and he looks good at breaking up play etc but maybe a little wasteful in possession? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,403 Posted March 19, 2018 Administrator Share Posted March 19, 2018 Sounds about right - brilliant at tackling and interceptions. It's not his role to get forward much but he will at the right time. For only 21 he has a good football brain but his passing could improve. He's kind of like a defensive midfielder shield and frees up anyone more creative in our midfield (iborra or Silva when we play them). I hope he sticks around with us as to have only got 2 seasons out of him would be similar to only getting 1 season out of Kante. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantastic ball-winner but very hit and miss with his passing. Physically strong and has a great shot on him. Possibly our brightest prospect, very easy to forget he's only just turned 21.

Rumours are that we opened negotiations at around £25m but you lot want £50m. Will probably end up somewhere in the middle if it ever happens.

I'd be disappointed with £25mil when we paid £15mil and he's generally looked good in this league at his age. I reckon it'll probably be around £40mil if it happens. We've got a busy summer ahead. It's likely we lose Mahrez, and it's possible we lose Ndidi and Maguire too. Take those three out we're in trouble.
