As usual, not a single SSN stream available in the whole universe :-(. You can get "Japanese girls and Zulu bukkake"..."Sophia Bush makes pasta"..."Top Gear, the first 1,000 years"..."The Secret Life of Garry Cook"...but an SSN stream?

Grassy knoll.

Sooo... Erm... Do you just Google "Japanese girls and Zulu bukkake" and it comes up or.... Erm, just wanna make sure I dont type it in by mistake and it pops up on my screen ;-)
Zulu Bukkake? fuck me it sounds like Rorke's Drift all over again

Is he that good a player - if you were to take away his Premier League experience?

He's a regular top 4/champions league defender.better than what we have and will improve us.

Well happy with this signing, he's a fine player & importantly for us he's a good pro.

Well, he's a defender so will probably never really stand out. If you look closely at his game he's very good at organising the back four, likes to keep the ball on the ground, good in the tackle and the air and he's strong and quick.

He'll never set the world alight because he's a defender, but its a good solid signing in an area that needs a player like him.
 
Top signing! He is a quality defender and a proper athlete! He was one of the main man in the arsenal back 4 that didn't lose...
 
Got to disagree that he's a good organiser.

Campbell was the main man when Toure was playing well, when he left I think it hurt both Toure and the likes of Senderos/Djourou who were brought in to play alongside of him. Gallas was the organiser of the two when he came in, but that in general was a poor partnership.

If Toure does start for us (I expect he will but hope he won't.) he'll need a Dunne or a new signing alongside of him because he is better as the no2 man IMO.

Seeing as you seem to know more about the man than myself, I'd like to pose a few more questions...


If we were to sign Lescott in the next few days, who do you think would partner him in the middle?

Onuoha or Toure (with Nedum continuously improving his game, and continuing his fine run of form)?

And of course not forgetting we have Kompany - is Toure that big a leap forward?

Shot in the dark here mate but i'm guessing you're a little underwhelmed by this signing?
 
i cant get my head around blues saying toure is no good tbh.
i know its all opinions but fuck me what do people want. a regular in a top 4 side for the last 7-8 years, solid and dependable, and better than what weve got. most arsenal fans dont want to see him go.
 
Most likely he will end up getting number 28, because no one is taken that number. And it's the number that he started his Arsenal career with.

Not at all.

I just don't know much about him, and from what I gathered a few days ago there are quite a few who are "underwhelmed" by this signing...

So I'm not sure whether or not I should be too!

Although it is obvious that he'll improve the squad - whatever you so believe.
 
Well i think this will turn out to be the worst of Mark Hughes transfer incomings to the club.In short he is worth no more than 6 million and maybe less on his last known form.Lazy ..idle player ..with a big attitude problem similar to that of M Richards. Time will tell and i only hope i am proofed to be wrong .
