"Dribbling is running at pace with the ball, oh dear, did no one tell you? "

Dribbling is manipulating the ball with tight ball control.

With pace? I presume you think headless chickens like Lennon are great dribblers as they can run quickly with the ball?
Maybe you should read that guide you posted up.

"Modric has one decent shot every 5 games, his crossing is dreadful, I would know, I've watched pretty much every game he's played. He doesn't take corners or free kicks, every spurs fan knows he isn't the best crosser. "

That's more than Dembele will ever have. It's clear you haven't been watching the guy. And you're just jumping on the bandwagon.
The guy couldn't hit a barn door as a striker and was played further back.

And Modric's crossing may not be great. But Dembele is certainly not a better crosser.
You don't know what you're talking about.

Wrong once again.

The fans were/was split when it came/comes to Song and Walcott.
Some rated him. Some didn't.

Get your facts right.

says the oracle lol, lets all belive an arsenal fan when he talks about a spurs signing, yeah good 1. Im sure if u asked most sensible arsenal fans (not that many around i know) they would take dembele in your mid at the moment, i think he will be a good signing and do well for us, not modric class but not many out there avaliable who are

"Dribbling is manipulating the ball with tight ball control."

Then why are you so bothered that I said you can dribble without having to beat a player? or are you just that thick?


"With pace? I presume you think headless chickens like Lennon are great dribblers as they can run quickly with the ball?
Maybe you should read that guide you posted up. "

That "headless chicken" is performing really well this season, using his main asset of dribbling. Which he uses really well to start counter attacks and get away from defenders. How's Walcott?


"That's more than Dembele will ever have. It's clear you haven't been watching the guy. And you're just jumping on the bandwagon.
The guy couldn't hit a barn door as a striker and was played further back. "

All you guys banged on about Modric was how he couldn't score a goal to save his life, all I'm saying is that Dembele is a bigger goal threat, at his feet and in the air. There is no bandwagon, Modric is useless at shooting, and from what I've seen from Dembele, he knows a lot more of what he's doing when he's taking a shot, he at least has better technique with the shot.


"And Modric's crossing may not be great. But Dembele is certainly not a better crosser."

Modric's crossing is completely useless, Dembele shouldn't be going anywhere near our set-pieces though, he's at least a heading threat, Modric had neither, which wasn't very useful.

Because you're wrong.
You're an idiot who doesn't know what dribbling is, after all these years of watching football.

Dribbling requires you to beat players. But not necessarily with pace.

"That "headless chicken" is performing really well this season, using his main asset of dribbling. Which he uses really well to start counter attacks and get away from defenders. How's Walcott?"

He thinks Lennon's a dribbler. So clueless.
The guy can barely control the ball.

I didn't bang on about goals. Because I know that's not Modric's job.
As for Dembele being a bigger goal threat. Hasn't he scored less than Modric and assisted less?
Pretty absurd comment to make.

Serial WUManiser,

2 points from 2 games. Yep good start

==================

You'd be happy finishing on 38pts then?

All I know is, last night the Arsenal board had a mini panic attack from the fact that Dembele was on his way to Spurs. You're still looking for another striker even though you've sold one and bought one. Obviously that clown Giroud doesn't cut it, 2 games and 0 goals for a club like arsenal is pretty pathetic.

"Dribbling is manipulating the ball with tight ball control."

this is what dribbling is, what you just said, yes it's used to beat players, but to dribble does not mean to actually beat a player, it's just to run with the ball.

You massive idiot...

Please tell me what Lennon is doing in this video, i think it's called dribbling. You really are a thick so and so

p.s that was against AC, the club that spanked you 4-0

Go on, I bet you reckon Dembele wouldn't get in the Arsenal team
-------------------

To be fair on Dubbed, With our current midfield, He probably wouldnt

Who would Dembele replace in our midfield then? Also Arsenal fans have been mixed with our opinions on Song and Walcott for a few seasons now.

posted on 29/8/12

Dembele wouldn't displace Arteta. Maybe Diaby now. But they're on par.
He'd get benched as soon as Wilshere returned though.

If he returns.

I like Mikel,in fact he was one of my favourite players, but I don't remember Arsenal having to fight for his signature. Believe it or not,I like Arsenal,but your a dolt.Does cretinism run in your family?

posted on 30/8/12

We signed Arteta extremely late.

But once again, this shows how clever you are.
You are judging players ability based on competition for their signature?

By the way, who even fought for Dembele? He's been linked to many places, but none of it confirmed.

Tottenham got in there easy. 14 million as well. Reeks of competition.

And? Clubs don't just don't starting bidding for players once Arsenal express an interest.

Utd made a bid.

I've nothing against Arteta,but if he was so good,why haven't we missed him?

"And? Clubs don't just don't starting bidding for players once Arsenal express an interest."

When I say late. I mean extremely late. Like the 'last few hours of the transfer deadline date' late.
Was around 3 hours left, I think.

On top of that, Arteta just came back from an injury lay off.
Don't think many teams would gamble on him, when you add his age on to it.

"Utd made a bid."

Source? And he ends up at Tottenham of all places.

You are talking out of your ass. Arteta plays for a much bigger team.
Your whole logic is a flaw.

"I've nothing against Arteta,but if he was so good,why haven't we missed him?"

What? You don't think he'd get back in your team?

You have no clue what you're talking about.

On the right wing maybe, as I've not seen enough of Naismith or Mirallas (Arteta was cack for us near the end). Fellaini would walk into the Arsenal side, you know it,and a large portion of the Gunner fans agree with me.

Absolute drivel. Arteta's better than whoever you have in the centre.
Keep telling yourself otherwise though.

"Fellaini would walk into the Arsenal side, you know it,and a large portion of the Gunner fans agree with me."

Yes. Ahead of Diaby, probably. And probably cause we don't we have many other options available.

But he'd be benched as soon as Wilshere returned.

Face it. Feillani's not that good. He'd be a squad player for us.
