    Blair I had time for, Gordon Brown I would happily stab in the eye, his good one.

    An appalling man, an appalling politician and an appalling Chancellor. And a Jock FFS!
    Gordon Brown was arguably the last political heavyweight Britain has produced. Huge intellect, great instincts. He just didnt come across as nice.

    These days our politicians are the idiot sons and daughters who couldnt earn a living in the real world.

      Well now Peter, we're going to have a slight difference of opinion here. He was an utter c*nt. And arguably the worst chancellor in living memory, for which we are still paying the price today. He undermined and then backstabbed Blair, made a colossal error selling off half the countries gold reserves and his fiscal irresponsibility as Chancellor bordered on criminality. He was a fat headed, arrogant, Jock liar of the highest order.

      Ever so slight a difference, then

        You're very wrong, but that's fine

        On a more important note, we do have an opportunity to bring in a proven, premier league winger. Raheem Sterling is available.....

          I'd play Gordon Brown on the left before Raheem Sterling ????

          You're emojis work! How?

            Or Olivier Giroud

              You know what? I understand the club here. We did need to sell to keep up with the inflatonary aspect of transfers now. If fees keep going up like they are (which is underpinned by City and Chelsea) then we have to keep selling assets for more than we bouhgt them. So I get the Martinelli sale (if the inflatornary aspect wasn't an issue then I'd keep him for numbers).

              We are now in a situation where there were no 'level raisers' available. But we have plenty of talent. It means more minutes for Madueke (who I beleive is a world class dribbler - who just needs confidence in final product). More minutes for Dowman who could well go on to be one of Arsenal's greatest ever players.

              We do definitely need a striker who will replace Gyokeres but sounds like the club is chasing Kroupi in Jan (admittedly PSG also want him which could be an issue).

              We have a solid defence and our attack is more than good enough to score a goal a game. Just win them all 1-0.

                We can all see how it could work. But we are relying on Havertz, Saka and Odegaard staying fit. Take those three away and the quality of our forward play drops off a cliff.

                It is a big risk. But I do agree that there is no point jin buying players who aren't good enough. Weve tried that before.....

                            Clearly my emotions are felt to be more important

                              I must stand up for P. He's about as classic centre-lefty as they come. Trained historian, see? Makes you objective so a bit hard to be ideological, as every second sentence starts "Well, on the other hand......"

                              A centre-lefty is someone who's well-meaning and would like to be a Trot other than the fact that you can't ignore the objective historical analysis that left/hard-left economics and politics fails every time it's been attempted.

                                I don't care much for ideology, although it is ok in politics. Government is about people's lives, not your ideas, your dogma. In government, pure ideological entrenchment always ends in.body counts.

                                Corbyn is the physical and ideological manifestation of everything i have always hated about the Labour Party. I've met his sort for 40 years. Utter ****ers who actually despise the working class. And Jews.
