Messi can drop into the midfield and do whatever he wants because the rest of the midfield is busy busting their ass 99% of the game to allow him to do so.

Good finisher with both feet, even better considering he's 19. If he continued developing and improving he could be exactly the type of forward Arsenal need. Giroud is not the type of player they should be starting. I'd say I'd like to see him at Liverpool too, but there midfield wouldn't create...

Okay guys, I got tickets to getafe and going to buy tickets for Arsenal when they are for sale, the game is a few days later. I'll be in Barca for 1 week so I need suggestions on what to do, what to see, restaurants etc I like historical stuff like cathedrals and other old architecture. Also...

Suggesting he is just taking another sweet paid vacation on Barca's dime. That guy has been totally useless so far. We are stacked in midfield and Reus won't come here to sit on the bench.

Too funny how some people are overly critical on our key players after a few games of being off form. We've had a dreadful schedule lately and we are still winning...and they are doing it with almost no rest. Neymar's finishing has been off for a while but he's still having good performances...

Would have loved him as partner to Pique a few years ago when he was still 27/28.

I've wanted to get Koscielny for years, but he's older now. Quality CB and had been Arsenals best defender since he signed.

He's actually been very good whenever he's actually gotten playing time, are you really going to judge his quality based on one game? If you had actually watched his other appearances for them you'd know he's been doing well...not to mention he's only 21. I read the article someone just posted...

Yea but PSG was the only club stupid enough to pay 55mil for him. I don't even think China will pay 50mil for him.

Yes, please. He's still only 21. I hope they play him in the CL and we get to see him against good opposition again.

Celta is refusing to let him go for anything under his release clause- 18 million is way too much for a 29 year DECENT striker, and yes he is only decent. If he was better, he would have made it here in the first place. I think he would definitely be more efficient in front of goal vs Munir and...

He showed great promise at Roma then went on to continue playing well at PSG. Whenever he's gotten a run of games at PSG he's done great, many fans were angry when he got benched after Thiago Silva got healthy and Luiz started over him. Laporte gets consistent football when he's healthy and he's...

Verthongen is worse than Mathieu and Verm, why buy him?! There are plenty of teams with great defenses that don't have left footed LCB. It's something that can be beneficial but by no means is necessary. Definitely not a reason to take a LCB that has been more shitty than good for 2 seasons...

He wasn't great last season either. No idea why so many people like him so much. He's been average and often in bad form the last two seasons. I don't get it. Marquinhos has proven so much more than him- plays better in his league and has CL experience. That is just a direct comparison...

To be fair, when he was younger and at Arsenal he was a great player and with plenty of potential to improve. He wasn't good enough at the time to compare to them, but I had high hopes for him when we signed him...since I really enjoyed watching him at Arsenal. I however thought he had the...

Lee reminds me a lot of Iniesta with his dribbling, he's got a class touch and is deceptively quick with the ball at his feet. You can see right from the get-go he's got a class touch. He's probably the prospect I'm most excited about; one to keep an eye on for sure. I'm just not sure center...

He was very, very bad today. Lost the ball cheaply in bad positions and led to counters twice, maybe even three times from what I remember. Generally sloppy. Very disappointed.

You're proving my point entirely with those examples. Two of them are doing a quick trick then pushing the ball past the player, like I mentioned, then beating him with speed. The other one he pushes the ball far ahead twice and beats him with his speed again. Compare those videos of what Costa...

I see what you mean by tier 2 prices actually being more expensive than tier 1. The Arsenal tickets aren't available on the website, says for me to leave my email and they will email me a few days before the game when tickets go on sale again. That worries me quite a bit- what if I plan my...

What he is saying makes perfect sense. Costa isn't a great dribbler, he pushes the ball into space and beats his target with his pace to the ball. That is not dribbling. Costa is a good and effective player, but he isn't a top class dribbler.
