or trying to match us with Bony, if Jose does not win the league and we can retain it, I think he is done for.

are you serious?


Same old shit from Jose, Roman will get bored. Our manager has class Chelsea have an ass !

except that they have a better manager. Roman will keep.


Stick to basketball.

Pellegrini is the current double winner.

And I believe he'll retain his title.

Its clear tht Peller don't believe in him even do he is save hes neck last season, 9 min in last two games and we buy Bony, so we can sell one. I m sure that Edin would bounce back like every season if hes givin time to play and last night so much great cross and hes on bench until 82 min. Sell him or play him. So much better then Cheski last night and we settle for draw.Keep Jovetic he can change Silva and other players and play striker ,better then have Edin like third striker and his slump i don't give crap atitude . I did not see long that ,but i expect it s comming back. Take Spurs for 25 mill or wathewer and buy somwone who can be at list like Matic when Yaya is not there.



We say this each season, but there is always a run of games where Dzeko proves his class in front of goal, eg last season in the run in.

I find it hard to think of him as 3rd choice, and unless we now consistently setup with 2 forwards in every game, it seems his game time will be minimal other than for injuries.

I think if Bony settles well, dzeko and Jovetic will raise a fair chunk of the transfer funds needed to get Reus and/or Pogba, and we may see Ian Nacho as our 3rd choice next year although that would be a risk unless he hits the ground running

I would like to see us play silva as the 2nd forward, negating the need for a 4th striker as nasri can play there too


I think Dzeko hasn't played because he's not been considered fit enough. No other reason. If we played him v Chelsea, he would have had to do a lot of running, & we know we can't always trust that. Asking him to do it after coming back from injury, whilst we're carrying a lack of running power from Aguero, could have been suicide.

I expect him to play his part between now & May.

Next season either him, or Jovetic, or both, will probably go & we probably already talked to clubs about the replacements. But only if Bony looks like fitting in.

the story of the day today is that Dzeko could go to Fenerbache on loan and we'll bring in Danny Ings. hah.

Hope that is just a bullshit rumour. Why send away a proven goalscorer in the middle of the title chase?

If you're an arsenal fan then yeh, probably. If you're a QPR fan then Harry almost got him but was pipped to the post at the last minute. Just depends who you believe.

If anything we're favourites for Reus but no one really knows this early. Telegraph running that we've told Fenerbahce to fuck off over Dzeko. No surprise. I think it'll be quiet at the Etihad tomorrow.

but wait, Reus said Arsenal are a great club and have a great manager. And he knows and respect Rosicky. So Wenger must've signed him.

in all seriousness though, Ozil, Sanchez, and Reus, not to mention Ramsey and Cazrola. that'd be impressive.

What did we pay for Dzonkey? £26m? How is he worth less now, do winning titles and scoring regularly drop your price these days?

And hasn't he signed a new contract fairly recently. That's seems to work for other clubs when adding an extra £10 million on for a player we're interested in.

He signed a new one last season. Best case scenario we get to keep our striker who we'll need as much as any of them in the last few games, worst case we get our money back and then some for a proven reliable striker. Everything else has to be rejected by the club outright, no fucking about with these bargain basement cunts anymore, this is no Adebayor or RSC on a ridiculous wage we are desperate to get off the books.

I would imagine we see his value by next season as round about the early 20s mil at 29 years old & having played very little for half a season (IF we decide to sell). But I don't think we will sell unless we have a player or two in mind who we really badly want, & there is no other way to fit them in/ finance it.
