Those were some fun Arsenal teams to watch...

I miss the Nike Joga Bonito commercials too....

 

[mastamind89]

Frimpong loaned to Fulham

 

[Gex the Damaja]

Sterling has more potential then Zaha.


EDIT: Wow the hype is incredible...

Someone was trying to tell me today Zaha was the next Cristiano.

I remember watching that first commercial around the time of the 06 World Cup

I have the same T90 ball from that Wayne Rooney commercial

 

[jada2001retro]

Zaha is vastly overrated.

I hope Frimpong gets to play a bunch, he's a great player just lacks some maturity.

 

[quik1987]

If Gunners don't make any NEW signings I might just commit that

 

[Kimchi Papi]

My co-worker thinks Zaha will be the UK freddie adu...

Real Madrid sign Diego Lopez from Sevilla formally of Villarreal as cover for Iker

Heard at least 10 utd fans utter that same nonsense also

 

[dlo13]

So we've established that he's somewhere between CR7 and Adu...

That right there is some great cover, since Sevilla were not in the UCL, he can play.

As a United fan, I can't see how anyone could say this.

 

[keepie uppie]

United faithful are hoping that he doesn't end up like Obertan...
the young Frenchman came into the fold when Bordeaux won the Ligue 1 a few years ago and was also one of the best players in the 2009 Toulon tournament...
fast forward to 2013 and this kid has yet to earn a first cap for the French national team...

i don't watch Newcastle that much but i believe since Ben Arfa's arrival,Obertan has been reduced to substitute appearances...

so is this the best i can do with buying messi's jersey?

none of them say authentic specifically in the title while nike has the US home jersey at $150 i was expecting that for messi, or am i searching in the wrong place?

 

[boys noize]

I doubt anyone here has seen enough of Zaha to make any long-term judgements on his game . None of us are watching Crystal Palace. To call him Cristiano or Freddy Adu is nonsensical. From what little we CAN see based off his YouTube highlights, he seems to be a pacey winger that isn't afraid to take on his defenders and seems to have some flair in his game. Seems to have a bit of that Daniel Sturridge "I'm going to beat my man regardless of what passing options I have around me" for better or worse.

I don't think £10m+ is a huge gamble. It's not like United are strapped for cash. He's a young, English player who seems to have a lot of upside.

This Rojas kid for Melbourne is nice as hell.

First time ever watching Australian soccer and he's putting on a show.

Anybody heard of him?

115 is the standard price player jersey price, im also going to buy a Messi jersey..still looking for past name/number plates.

and yeah, australian soccer is chilling..i like to think of it as a little MLS.

Thanks guys for the input.  Ultimately I guess he's still a little rough around the edges, hence the loan... ?  A good season or 2 before we get to see him I guess. 

 

[jada2001retro]

GIROUD!

 

[dlo13]

Related...Gervinho scored for CIV again.

Kalou has "Kalounho" or something on his shirt...good to see he's still crap.

 

[mastamind89]

Vintage Arsenal counterattack
Santos thank God both of them were off sides

 

[jada2001retro]

HORRIBLE goalkeeping.

 

[mastamind89]

GET SANTOS THE **** OFF THE PITCH!
