Christopher Samba

I didn't want this guy because I thought he was 35. Just looked WikiP and he's only 26. Buy this bloke Wenger he's a beast. Not only can he Defend with the best of them and is 6ft4" but he can play upfront aswell when Chamakh is injured at the same time as RVP

My mates a Blackburn fan and ive been to seen him play, its common knowledge he has NO pace. He may score 2-3 goals a season but he also has 2-3 own goals as well. We need a clever defender not just some big ape..(d.b.r)

Word on the street is that Blackburn are looking to sign some defender from Italy to replace Samba who is apparently on his way to us.

Why not say that? Are you Anti-Samba?

Not anti-Samba but just not my choice of CB, he would be use for some games like Stoke but dont rate him enough i guess.

IMO we need a "slow" less-pacey CB. All our Pacey CB's like to speed off down the front-lines and leave us caught at the back...

We need one who's going to stand their ground like a brick wall.

Just like Felipe Melo extended his deal with Fiorentina, then two days later signed with Juve?

Yea, I'm glad we didn't sign him (Melo), but the point is just because he signs doesn't mean he can't leave if he wants, or that they won't sell him.

Im aware of that but i can hope he stays right.

Is he really lacking pace? I've never noticed. I didn't think Wenger would ever be interested in such slow players when we play with such a high line.

He may be good with set-pieces, but the way Djourou bosses the box, it's looking like set-pieces are no longer our achilles heel... everything seems to land on his head!

I can see us eating set-pieces for breakfast with Djourou and Vermaelen
