What a pathetic, outdated draw format

So the ex-captain of Bayern Munich stands there and is able to see exactly which ball they are when it goes into the pot……and surprise, surprise they get FC Basel

Where as Chelsea and Arsenal get the Italian clubs.

Honestly it wasn’t hard to keep your eye on which ball you wanted and to pick it out – a bit like which cup is the ball underneath !

This is 2011 and the draw is made this way. Unreal. What a total fix

if van persie gets injured then were unlucky, if van persie gets injured and we only have chamakh and park to call on, then were dummies. wenger sign a striker. if wenger doesnt sign a striker and van persie gets struck down after january. he will look like an idiot of monumental proportions. why does he do it? why did he sell diarra in january 2008 when we were leading the league? why did he gamble on almunia coming good for 4 years? why are we gambling our season on one players fitness? if van persie gets injured what happens? by god we cant play chamakh as his scared of the goal. park isnt as good as park ji sung. arshavin is currently hapless. theo, gervinho? simply put we dont have a striker to call on. is he too proud to buy players? if he signs a striker is it a de facto admission he dropped the ball signing chamahk and park in the first place? i believe wenger will do nothing in january and i believe he will gamble our season on van persies fitness.

Podolski – great international player, shit in the league. He impressed clubs around the world because of his performance in world cup 2006, Bayern snapped him up and hes bombed ever since. he’s still young through, so it’d be a gamble – maybe Arsenal could reinvent him.

£250,000 a week, 4 year deal and a bronze statue next to one for Bergkamp as well, bring Bergkamp in as the number 2, retire Patrice and its job done. The worrying thing is that the club captains usually leave soon after being appointed, Vieira, Henry, Fabregas………Why not make Squillachi, Fabiankski, Almunia, and Chamakh joint captains.

seems AW is more interested in balancing books than silverware unless if he poves me wrong

No to the cash that Torres is on…and a big no to what Podolski is rumoured to be asking/on.

@ eric:
Of course he would have to take a wage cut to move ! Only chelsea, man city and probably united can pay him that much.
Else he can rot on the bench for all i care. But a great player doesn’t turn bad overnight

Is it true that chelsea is willing to let torres go for 20M ? if yes, i’d say buy !!!
Chelsea does not play the kind of soccer that suits Torres. The way chelsea play is that all their midfielders like to chelsea midfielders usually fancy their chances at goal, so they take shots. They also like kicking the ball up field to drogba.

We have a midfield that can pass the ball to him. (My thoughts)
