I know, i wasn't thinking you didn't, apologises if that wasn't clear but you get my point. You and i want to see such talent in a Black and White shirt, but you know it's so futile and pointless. It's so frustrating and heartbreaking watching the scum who run our club so cynically, get a free pass from the media because we might spend on the odd player here and there.

Unless he lowers the price to an alternative buyer, then aye for the time being, horrendous thought but that's the reality imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfcastle Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, Yorkie said: Then why the surprise at people being apathetic or dubious towards the signing (which I think is more accurate than 'pissing and moaning', from what I've read here, particularly seeing as there's plenty who've said they're happy with the signing...) if you know the dismal bigger picture overrules an isolated positive move? Ashley's still here, Bruce is still here, the club's still on life support, going nowhere - but let's be jubilant cos we've spent 20mill on just-about standing still? Fair play to those who are still 'in', such as yourself, mind; I'm envious of those who still get the feelings. Might just quote that whenever anything not bad happens here, wins, signings - it basically comes down to this unless you kid yourself. To Bishop Ashley and Barnes its tossing a trained seal a fish and watching it clap. And any signing that turns out good won't be built on and we'll just be playing Russian roulette every window until they're sold. We know the ending.

Menace Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 For the money wanted for ASM, he's a huge risk. Has he even been fit in the last 18 months Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnglishMalteser Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Nobody's in for ASM because of his injury record, can't justify the fee. I've seen plenty of Arsenal fans disappointed they're not keeping Willock, they say they lack a box to box midfielder and he fills that void. Best thing we can do is not put pressure on him to continue what was a freakish goal record for a player in that role, and give him time, this time next year he could be ready to be a brilliant player for us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
