Agreed with the first point. I said exactly that a month or so back in this thread. But, you obviously have short term memory loss in regards to the bolded part of your statement

do you not remember this guy?

For Suarez to join Arsenal would be a huge step in my opinion! I don't think this remarkably good moment of his will last very long and it (and he) will help Arsenal lift a cup after some long time. By the way, have you read Fever Pitch? Enthralling book by a genuine Gunner!

Erm... Arsenal is a huge step up from Liverpool.

And we will sign him.

In what way are Arsenal a step up from Liverpool?

**Goofle** · 08-11-2013, 02:17 PM

Well, at least two places in the League. Champions League football, every year.

Yeah.

Historically Liverpool > Arsenal.

Present day attraction and appeal to top players: Arsenal > Liverpool.

Players don't give a shit about who's actually 'bigger' or won more, playing for Arsenal has better prospects than playing for Liverpool. If I was a player I'd pick Arsenal too.

Suárez to Arsenal and Rooney to Chelsea will both happen, I think it's very likely. Liverpool will reach a point where they realise 40m+ is better than keeping a smacked arse dickhead in the reserves for the sake of it and not playing him.

Both teams had better do it now instead of leaving it to the last minute like Spurs did with Modric last year.

Tekkers has been brilliant in pre season. Tonev looked decent against Malaga. Okore hasn't had much game time cos of injuries, Helenius started well and has scored a few. Bacuna looks good and Luna has done OK too. Optimistic about all our signings.

Zero chance? Don't be silly. You're the favourites but we didn't do too badly last season for what was our worst team in fucking years.

Check our record against Arsenal at the Emirates, 2 draws, 2 wins, 3 defeats. Hardly shameful.

Clearly not seen Aaron Ramsey in pre-season
