Mick Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Debuchy couldn't wait to go unfortunately He probably wanted to play for an ambitious club, I don't know why he would want to leave here if that was all he was looking for, do you? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Debuchy only come here because his mate was here, as soon as Cabaye left he couldnt give a fuck tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 12m according to SSN. Good business to effectively swap Debuchy for Janmaat and Riviere. Agreed, 2 unproven premiership players are far better than one who is proven to be class. Debuchy couldn't wait to go unfortunately Can't say I blame him. I was born in the city and have supported them since before I remember, and I'd be begging to leave too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norseman Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 IMO better business for Arsenal like. Swapping sagna for debuchy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Happy with the replacement, but one thing I think we may miss is Debuchey's real drive to win every game all the time, when he was injured we looked noticably less motivated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Debuchy only come here because his mate was here, as soon as Cabaye left he couldnt give a f*** tbh. He'll love playing with his mate at Arsenal then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemtizz Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 IMO better business for Arsenal like. Swapping sagna for debuchy Hardly. Debuchy is much less of a man than Bacary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Don't think 12m is THAT good of a fee, but Janmaat is a good replacement and we've done ok out of this. Still hurts like fuck to see him in that Arsenal kit though - my fault for emotionally attaching myself to players under this regime. Arsenal have got a class player, there. Aye. The players here have a 4-5 year span generally. If we haven't managed to sell them by the final year then we'll do any thing to get some money for them like the Ben Arfa farce.

Revolution Number 9 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Not as much of a blow when we all knew it was coming and a replacement has come in already. Hope he does well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus he will be on much bigger wages now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Don't remember the last time we had as good of a right back as Debuchy. Just a shame he came into this team when Alan was managing it... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fairly easy to claim Debuchy only signed because of Cabaye and that was probably true, what's also true is that he would have stayed if we'd shown ambition and that is never going to happen.

Stuy_O Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Disappointed to see him leave, top player imo. Comes in quite a bit of stick but I think he's got the lot as a fullback. Janmaat coming in though is very pleasing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 12m according to SSN. Good business to effectively swap Debuchy for Janmaat and Riviere.

Disco Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Can actually stomach this as he's been replaced immediately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I never took to a RB in modern times as much as I did with Debuchy. Loved his fight on the pitch at times and was always hoping one of those rocket corner kick volleys would rip the net off. Just liked the way he played, he had rediculously good aerial ability, tackled hard, and made our attack look very smooth when we actually attacked well. Shame we saw probably half of his talent at SJP as he wasn't being utilized right or had the wrong guy in front of him or next to him in defense. Good luck to him.

bhoywhonder Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I dont bear Debuchy any ill will, and to be honest Im glad I saw him in our shirt - on his day he was world class. Janmaat coming in has sugared the pill slightly, but who knows how he might turn out. At least shows a modicum of planning behind the scenes rather than the usual frenzied land-grab for profit. Those boots are an absolute disgrace mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammys_Tekkers Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Sad to see him go, was excellent last season. Glad we have already sorted out a replacement, really softens the blow of losing him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David28 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 12m according to SSN. Good business to effectively swap Debuchy for Janmaat and Riviere. Agreed, 2 unproven premiership players are far better than one who is proven to be class. Not really important how "good" the business is we've just done as it's all over for them in a few years time anyway. Thing is, Debuchy hasn't played as well as he can for us in his time here. To get two players effectively in for him isn't too bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, have to agree with that. Too early too tell. We'll see, but I've got a good feeling for now. As I've said, sadly they won't be here for that long if they turn out to be really good.

Ste Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I really like him as a player. Committed and good at his craft. Really don't like how we once again haven't progressed as a club to match the ambition of our better players. I wish him well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
