Keep him. At most Arsene is going to sign a meh-ish French replacement so we might aswell have a world-class crook instead.

Back on topic. I have said we should cash in on him while we can. He obviously can't stay fit in a physical league like the Prem, so why do we continue to delude ourselves?

I like van Persie, probably more than any player (although I am getting a man crush on Jack), but his time has come in my opinion.

Funny that he's already outshining Conor Wickham and everyone has been guzzling his man juice for 2 years

i agree that letting tevez go was mad. Maybe they couldnt compete on wages. But when brandy face makes a decission like that he does so as a manager whose club has won an insane amount of silverwear and 800m in debt. Its a different situation, yet still he makes an effort to replace sold players. If wenger brought in a player like valencia i think we would all be relieved that he hadnt signed noone at all

Man utd should of brought him imo not Bebe.

Just hope Afobe and Aneke do become good, heard about these two for few years now and seem to match the hype at lower levels.

I think it had more to do with Tevez wanting first team football - his performances at Utd warranted it and since he's become the main man at citeh, you can see why was demanding it.

No it has more to do with Tevez would have cost them at least £25m and he didn't want to pay that at the time for a player he had for free up til then.

He probably regrets it in hindsight however.

Speaking of Tevez, hes been making alot of noises about how he doesnt have the passion anymore? His family dont live here either which must be really hard too. wonder if he means passion playing for a money team or hinting he wants away.

There's always JET, he's shown potential so hopefully Wenger gives him a fair amount of games, in fairness to him he was our best striker in pre-season

Everyone gives Wenger stick that he doesn't buy big and honestly i'd love to see that too but the fact he's made us so much profit without spending much and kept us in the top 4 is pretty amazing although i'll admit top 4 isn't enough

I'm hoping he makes a signing or 2 in jan and if we don't win anything again this season he'll surely have to concede his method hasn't worked, our so called "young team" will be around 24 and over other than people like Jack

So the "Main Man" or "Rapist" will be back in time for Tottingham on the 20th of November.

Since the 7th of November 2009 he has given us a whole massive 2 starts. What's he on? 80K per week at least right? Well that would be almost 4.5mill well spent by the time the "unlucky" chap is back.

Get Rid. We're fine without him.
