		<description>hey chris! think it&#039;s fine for you to comment on arsenal&#039;spredicament and of course you aren&#039;t an idiot just because you support utd. entitled to your opinion, mate. in fact i agree with what you&#039;ve said about us.
i&#039;m also not an idiot and am equally interested in rival teams. 
what an unfortunate series of events its been for utd! falling from top dog in europe probably to nowhere near almost as a result of one game and one spanish take over at real. and then....the genius of replacing ronaldo (dangerous scoring tosser) and tevez (dangerous goal maker) with...michael owen. he has done nothing whatsoever against us in recent times - unlike other two. good luck with that..his best days ended about three to five years ago with serious injury that reduced speed. do you think walcott would get in arsenal team if he wasn&#039;t that fast? no chance. 
there is simply no point in berbatof and wayne will never score more than 15/year. it should be really obvious to everyone involved in football that great player as he is he sure aint a centre forward. 
without ronaldo in particular it is highly unlikely you would have won much in the last few years. 
now we&#039;ll see who&#039;s vying for fourth..</description>

		<description>shit i was thinking when beckham left the club... (as was that guy) - i just saw the years.  to be fair ruud was gone one most of 2005/05 due to injury but you&#039;re right.

this strays from the point though.  - well see what happens in the rest of the window...and next season.</description>

		<description>van Nistelrooy left in 2006, United have won the Premier League every season since his departure. United didn&#039;t win a Premier League in any of van Nistlerooy&#039;s last three seasons with the club. 

Hopefully this is a warning sign to Arsenal...</description>

		<description>Let&#039;s not forget Chris, Man Utd sold van Nistelrooy who was scoring 35+ goals a season around 2006 and did not really replace him leading to your club being poor in the 2004-05 and 2005-06 seasons.</description>

		<description>I understand that arsenal fans are upset, that&#039;s exactly what i said, frustration. But the reason I say your out of your element with this particular topic is because Arsenal have a different set of standards from the other three in the big four. While we may not like it, we cannot keep up financially, therefore finishing without a premier league or an FA Cup (League Cup isn&#039;t worth anything) in the last 4 seasons has to be tolerated so that we can rebuild a winning team our own way. With another manager, wed fall to 6th or 7th if not worse. 

I&#039;m not saying you don&#039;t deserve an opinion I&#039;m just saying Wenger shouldn&#039;t be criticized, he&#039;s doing what&#039;s best for the club. 

&quot;I would have been voicing my concern long ago&quot; People have been &#039;voicing their concern&#039; for 3 years. 

&quot;and so far this season you lost a player who netted 40-plus goals the past 2 seasons and no replacement is on the way&quot; 30 of the 40+ came from a career year, and he was selfish, there&#039;s nothing Arsene can do about that (see Cristiano). And we sold him 4 days ago, with more than a month left in the window. There are plenty of reasons to believe we will bring in another striker.</description>

		<description>The sell of kolo toure would be a good sell but if i waz arsene wenger i would milk it from they can buy Roque Santa cruz  for 18mill and they really need a defender althought kolo wouldnt be the best buy cause he lacks concetration and areial strenght but because of the africa cup nations i would sell him and get bassong,cahill or the fulham dude because of their previous premiership as for the holding player song is the guy for the job he is only 20 and showed great qualties end of last year but i fear arsene might use him as a cb which is a bad idead because he is clumsy but lorik cana would be a great buy because of song going to cup of nations, diaby is great player who az any other player has bin hit by injuries in his first few years in the league perfectly understable!! and eboue should be kept he z gt energy and is gud player 2 have on the bench az he can play rb and STRIKER is needed and if god listens to my prayers it would be CLASS jan hunterlaar he z a clinical finisher and a patneship between him and persie who has alrdy played wid him in the national team would b unbelievble</description>
