Funny thing about Balotelli is that I remember a lot of this board and general opinion being

[PSRB]

"I love Balotelli but I'm so glad he doesn't play for us"

I have decided that I'm still of this opinion

[Pat Vegas]

But I want him to play for us.

I think a team should be able to accommodate one nutter in the squard.

Presumably you'll change your view when Balo helps us to retain the FA Cup.

play on the left or up front if needed. You'd probably see someone like Remy signed instead.

[Snin]

Jack down a bit whilst showing Theo how to playboy it up a bit..go a bit hamilton instead of a black michael owen :hehe:

[Ben.]

Remy is good because he's not too expensive, decent and a very different option to Giroud.

Campbell/Sanchez Remy Walcott


pace, counterattack :cloud9:

[Billy Goat Sverige]

a wide left player who can play up front (if needed) given the recent stuff about Draxler turning us down in January.

[Rich]

that others wouldn't even have thought of. Those games might get you an extra 5 points or so, which could be a crucial difference.

Remy will score a few goals, yes. But won't win you a game out of nothing.

We need Sanchez and Ballotelli. No excuses.

[Rich]

were asked if they were planning something big for the release?

[Ben.]

Draxler isn't what we need at all, thankfully it looks like Wenger is coming around.
Remy can also play in the wide roles and isn't likely to go mental if he's rotated also, Giroud is looking great atm :nod:

[Billy Goat Sverige]

who he's buying?

[Rich]

would probably put a condition in there like they want to unveil him at the kit launch after the World Cup.

[redgunamo]

A lad like Balotelli pays for himself in marketing revenue, you'd think.

Decent player too, which is a bonus.

[Rich]

I want to win the league, B.

[Pat Vegas]

Puma gave Arsenal the monies to get a player. :sherlock:

[redgunamo]

In the old days, before the Premier League was invented, I understand that some clubs relied massively on just one or two players for much of their income. You know, through marketing/advertising revenue. Selling them would've sent the club into financial freefall.

Who knows, maybe it's still true today.

[Ben.]

that would be acceptable imo, Remy on his own and I agree with you.
Don't forget we have Giroud who has looked better than Balotelli this world cup tbh (not just his hair either).
Every time I see Balotelli he spends at least part of the game sulking and throwing his arms about, at least Remy will actually run.
Balotelli is great and could be a world beater but I would say the odds favour him being a bit of nightmare, could be fun though :nod:

games out of nothing....:shakehead:
