Robin Van Persie - Forward - Arsenal (141 Viewers)

But I thought he'd never move to another EPL club? Especially a rival like Manchester United?

He was always going to stay in England, I believe there was zero truth in us being serious about him, as we cannot afford his wages for one, plus his family are settled in England.

And do you remember Agueros smile when in the press conference when they mentioned Juventus?

Of course, as much as I remember Jovetic not talking during training.

I think he meant $#@!s who haven't $#@!ed in 20 years.

Yes, i'm sorry for my eng

He didn't jump when they sung the "Chi non salta Juventino" song!

So Marrotta is not to blame for this at all? Just asking in all seriousness. No sarcasm.

It depends on what do you mean by blame? Marotta never even approached RVP, it was all fabrications. So you can blame him for not trying but you cannot blame him for failing to buy.

So what's a "top player"!!? Were mucking around with the big boys. Concentrate on Jovetic and start producing our "own brand" of top players like the marchisios and vidals. Fuq RVP and those so called kunts.

The top player according to Marotta is:

A player that can be bought on our terms without the hassle of negotiations and bidding wars
A player that is willing to join us so we can work on his price in a better way
A player that "fits our system according to the coach's demands" (only to cover why other players weren't bought)

He scored HALF of all his league goals in his Arsenal career in the past 2 years. Scored 48 league goals in 6 years....

No, I mean, all summer long we go hammer and tongs with RvP being our number 1 target, trips to London, mentioning players and how much we admire such players. Last year we blamed it all on Juve being a 7th place team with no CL, when Aguero chose Shitty over us. We mentioned names like Pastore, Higuain among others, and ended up with Vucinic. This year, in almost similar fashion, we harp about how crazy we are about Cavani, Higuain and RvP. We talk about fucking LCDs in a house, and for the second year running lose out on the supposed #1 target. All this, as champions of Italy, with CL football and a kick ass stadium. But no, this year we blame it on the scommesopoli or whateverthefuck it is. So is this really it?! I will reserve judgment on this issue till the 31st of August, but in my view, anything short of Armero, Dzeko and maybe if required a Bocchetti, will be a failed mercato for the champions of Italy. At least that's the way I see it.

Do you really believe all that? trips to London and a player preferred us over another team for a certain reason?

All these names that you mentioned are just imaginations, Marotta never even considers any of them, seriously now I think you already know better.

Failed seems a bit harsh no? We brought in class players at positions we needed, as well as got younger. We're missing a top class striker, but hopefully we'll sign one, but even without it wasn't a failed mercato IMO, just look at how our competitors are doing, only Roma have improved. It's a different market now, and considering how much Juve has spent this summer, it wouldn't be so terrible if they stopped spending now. Though I still believe a top class striker will come, and I also hope Armero gets signed.

We havent a fuckking clue in luring a "top player" marotta is all mouth and couldn't organise a Piss up in a brewery. You fuckking pirate.

So all the money we spent now would be justified if it all came to an end with say, a Pazzini? I would tend to disagree. And I would think that to be a failure. I'm not questioning if Conte asked for those players or not. I'm questioning how we are going about addressing our priorities. The LB/LwB and CF were the top two things on the list, and for the second year running, the man running our market is running out of options. But like I said, I'll reserve judgment till august 31st.

I understand, but we've gotten quality players and I also do believe we'll bring in someone. Players like Jovetic, Damiao and RVP were all very close to joining us with their team in the way of the transfer. But yes, August 31st, and I hope we bring in a class striker.

If you left it to Beppe to organise a fishing trip, he'd supply you with a great boat, plenty of food and drinks, but would ultimately fail in negotiating the loaning of the fishing rods. Sure you'd have a decent time but you'd catch none of the big fish.
