If Liverpool bought Lionel Messi, their chances of finishing fourth would drastically increase. If Tottenham lost every game from here up until the end of the season, we might have a chance of finishing higher than them. Bizarre argument really, making predictions on something that's almost entirely random.

I didn't bring it up to say you won't get fourth

I brought it up because that is an obvious flaw in the team...

Yeah, we're obviously reliant on him to a large extent because he's our best player. Our second best player has been out for the entire season though so that doesn't help either. I don't think anyone doubts that we wouldn't play as well as we do when van Persie is on form as we would if he were to get injured.

I don't seem the brightest? In my opinion you sound like a deluded imbecile who tries to exert intelligence by using uncommon words in the wrong context whilst getting his grammar completely wrong. That's why there's no point justifying why I think Newcastle won't get top 4, goodday to you

Well that is a fine example of hypocrisy, you really went over board on that one.
All of your arguments lacked substance, you're a fool.

MORE SUBSTANCE! HURRAH!

Who would score the goals? I mean when you win it tends to be because of something special, usually by Van Persie.

He's been in great form for the very long time of 13 months. We've managed without him before and we sure can again..

And when we win it isn't always down to him. Who creates his goals? He scores as many as he does because the team focus on him and getting the ball to him.. 2 years ago we played Arshavin up top and we still managed and we had Fabregas and Nasri out for a bit during that period too.

I don't mean you won't manage to score goals at all, or end up getting relegated or anything. I just don't see you being able to compete with the best, and maybe even second best, in the league without him. He has, for better or worse, become the focal point of your team this season. When he does not perform, Arsenal does not perform.

Arshavin was quite awesome at the time though, he really isn't at the moment and I don't really see how he could pull you through a period like that. The only character I could see stepping up is Chamberlain, heck for all I know he might thrive with Van Perise out and win you games single handedly, he certainly has the quality and mentality for it.

Personally I think Van Persie is hindering the club. Not that you should get rid of him, but you really need some more options and attacking points. Chamberlain is doing well, but he's not enough IMO. I find it scary when I can look at Van Perise's performance and know that Arsenal are not going to perform well in this match.

I hope we get some Arab or Russian billionaire to give us some monies at the end of this season.

I just explained why I didn.... Oh fuck you'll never get it

I'm mentality challenged and you're clearly more intelligent than me, there you go

Ze end

Why are you picking up on Van Persie? Surely you should be picking up on Walcott and Gerboué

Cause Van Perise has the quality to be better.

Seriously though, it's not really his fault. The entire team is based on him performing well. It's not necessarily his fault that the system is as it is, it's Wenger's fault.

Not really, he has done everything he can do. He's not in the sort of team where he take take potshots wherever, he needs to be the playmaker, striker and captain all in one. The entire team is average bar Sagna, Poland, Koscielny, Vermaelen, Wilshere, Song, Chamberlain and van Persie. Only two of those are forwards with one not being played.

See where I'm going with this?

"Arsenal are asking about increasing ticket costs..."

Quality of the squad isn't good enough?

Aren't they already the most expensive in the country?

No not at all, if last years was only good enough to push for 3rd place at best then I don't think this squad is capable with worse players in a more competitive league

They're lucky if they reach 50k in high profiled matches these days

He should burn it.

Increasing ticket prices is actually a good thing. It means we'll generate more profit in other departments so we can have more to invest in the squad.

Fuck that. Its already too expensive to watch this shit. If we were winning cups and leagues then sure why not? But now? When we are playing as fucking shit as we are? They can fuck right off.

The point of increasing ticket prices is that we stop playing as fucking shit as we are at the moment.

How are ticket prices going to improve the way we play exactly?

That's assuming there's no mass boycott.
