It's too bad Bendtner was injured during his goal. Aside from his one terrible performance against Chel$ea in the CoC, he's done exactly what a backup striker is supposed to do. I wonder if some (one in particular) on here will admit that they were wrong about him. Or maybe we should beat the Dzeko dead horse some more...
I'm guessing this post is directed at me, what exactly did I get wrong? that Bendtner is crap? one fluke 15 mins cameo against a relegation candidate aint gonna change my mind about this absolute liability. Dzeko? dead horse? The Dzeko issue came up just few weeks ago and as recent as 4-5 days ago his name was on everyone lips as the obvious candidate to go for THIS january. Meanwhile we've been beating the kalou>RVP dead horse for like 10 years now.
No. You've been wrong about Bendtner the entire time. You've claimed over and over that he's not good enough to play for a team in the top half of the table. He's good enough to be adequate backup for a team like ours and to start against the bottom half teams. I've showed it multiple times but you continue to ignore it while trumpeting how *right* you are about everything on here.
And yes, the Dzeko thing is getting beaten to death. How many threads do you guys need to muck up before it's beaten to death in YOUR eyes? Same with AVB. All of you arguing about it need to get over it and move on.
If you exclude this thread Piz and bog have used my inexcusable comments about Dzeko on six others. Just thought you wanted a fact check.

The carnivorous thrashing of AVB is based on two things.
1.Subliminated, unvoiced, bottled up bitterness at not being able to shout "Sack Wenker" very much this season. That's the sort of suppressed rage that works a pain into the pancreas. It has to come out or the host body dies.
2. Delayed reaction from not being able to laugh at AVB last year when he was completely in control of signings and team matters.

It's interested how RVP<Kalou is mentioned here. The truth is while it comes up in mirth from time to time 99% of the posts were between Gooner0893 and Phato. The elongation of it was the responsibility of one man. It kept coming back alive every time RVP got injured and failed to score from the treatment table! :)

This Kalou> RVP shit is gotta stop. Why is that even dug up again? An opinion was given 4 years ago and it was wrong. Happens all the time. I blasted Ramsey before the start of the season as wondering what the hype was about and was he really good enough to play for us. We are all guilty from time to time of putting our foot in our mouths. To drag this up again and again is just childish.

Has anyone noticed the level-headed ness of Martin Keown here?

"If Wenger brings somebody in, he has to be better than what’s already there. People talk about a quick fix with Dimitar Berbatov. He’s a great talent, and has great vision but I don’t think he’d compete in the air as well as Giroud. But you want a striker that puts the fear of God into the opposition, and you have to ask where that player is."

For me I am fully behind any player who can improve the team. Not rolls of the dice at the end of their careers. I think Wenger has just now said Berbatov is not one of the names we are pursuing. That's a relief because I think such a player isn't the right fit for half way through a season. If we try for a big name and fail, at least we tried. Wenger has something up his sleeve though, as said before the same grin we got when he promised us Özil is hanging on his face.

I hereby ask the moderator/administrator to ban future references to Kalou>RVP or, if they occur, edit the offending posts to replace that with "remember when jays said Ramsey was no good" or a suitable equivalent. I further request that if, as a result of this action, references to Kalou>RVP start to become less common, he insert the above comment about jays randomly into other threads, as deemed necessary to sustain a significant frequency. No board can long survive without this kind of idiocy and we shouldn't risk the attempt on this one.

So as not to be seen as picking on jays, we should also mandate a minimum of five posts per day - spread around at least three threads - calling attention to the fact santry said Dzeko is in the top five players in the world. At the moment this appears to be self-policing, but I can foresee a time three of four years hence when action by the administrator will be needed to maintain that level of activity.

The half-life of the debate regarding AVB clearly exceeds that of uranium 235. No action required on that one, then.

Dredging up these old opinions is just a ploy to belittle another poster. Nothing more. Like every opinion I ever give in the future must be wrong simply because I doubted Ramsey's worth before. Its asinine.

As both you and jays came into this "community" about half way through its existence let me set something straight for the record, which hopefully will disabuse you both of how Kalou>RVP became a cultural reference point here. For about two years, or possibly three, we were treated to Gooner0893 making the running on this issue and Phato opposing him vigorously. The instigating posts were pure eye worms, so much so that people left the instigator at his important work and mostly passed over the opportunity to comment. However, for having sat through these years I would prefer some of us are left with our iconic chuckle. Thanks.

I've been here since I believe 2007. I know it was Sagna's first season because I remember one of my first posts was about being super Impressed with his play in the opener which I remember being a match against Fulham when Mad Jens gifted them a goal a few minutes in the match we ended up winning late.

I was around for the beginning of that, but as for the particulars of the Kalou> RVP deal, its lost in the fog now for me. At this point, its just a wrong opinion by a poster that somehow gets pulled out for no other reason than to try to make another poster sound stupid.

Hang on is Santry trying to justify his Kalou > RVP trolling?
I may have been guilty of flogging the Dzeko dead horse, but is it really a dead horse if he's among the names currentlybeen thrown around on this board as a January transfer target.
The Kalou > RVP is no where as bad as what I or jays or any poster for that matter have done. Some posters here weren't even born when 0893 apparently said that.
