WHat was he thinking - Part II: Wenger's Worst XI

[IUFG]

and we lost to Charlton.

We were ****ing hammered, b. Grimandi was particularly shít that day too.

Stiff or soft hands on that one?

Well, a fist.

We let a perfectly goodgoalkeeper leave because he had a fag.

[World's End Stella]

When Shaaban joined Bob Wilson spoke about how they tried to amend his technique to include actually catching the ball sometimes, rather than punching. His technique was so ingrained that they eventually decided they couldnt change it.

We signed a goalkeeper that literally couldn't catch and couldnt be taught. If that isnt the definition of a **** keeper I dont know what is. On his debut he punched a rather slow shot that was heading gently towards his stomach. He was hopeless.

Compared to him, Almunia was Peter Shilton (I would have said Seaman but I dont take His name lightly).

I have just this very minute gone to youtube and discovered a video of Rami catching footballs after they were kicked to him by a training person of some sort.

So this is untrue and you now owe AWIMB an apology. Thank you.

I told you what Bob Wilson told me. Of course, if you want to ask BobWilson for an apology......

Grimandi. Now there's a name I haven't heard for many years.

As a solid 'Wenger In' chap, I also am man enough to know that he signed some right donkeys - youth team kids who played in teh odd Legaue Cup tie are excluded.

Here's my choice:

Shaaban
Andre Santos
Stepanovs
Cygan
Remi Garde
Kallstrom
Malz
Cabbalero
Park Chu-Young
Diawara
Jeffers

I'd have Squillaci/Silvestre in ahead of Cygan. Pascal was a man of limited talents but he made the most of what he had (sometimes).

Last I heard he was one of our top scouts.

Squillaci or Silvestre were deffo worse than Cygan. Mind you, if you really wanted a terrible central defence, playing Luzhny and Stepanovs were hard (ie easy) to beat - as United so comprehensively proved.

Probably gone now with the collapse of the former regime.

I recall one of Stepanovs earliest performances, cup v Chelsea I think, back when we would be moved for the day from CE to NB.

He looked a player.

Juan played that day also I think.
