Re: Exorbitant Ticket Prices Fuels Arsenal’s Success

you mention the maximum ticket price but those tickets are reserved for the ultra wealthy corporate seats for those wanting to woo their clients. I sit in an average seat, which costs about $75 per game. Given some of the ridiculous incomes of Londoners the price is a fair one, as proven by the 40,000 on the season ticket waiting list. furthermore, prices have been frozen for 3 consecutive years.

Re: Baptista Coming To Arsenal For Reyes?

reyes was never worth what we paid for him. He wasn't english after all! Real Madrid want to pay somewhere close to the actual market value. we are only pushing up the price cos we overpaid. we may have to take a hit on him but I still would not take Baptista, now we have adebayor.
Isn't Saviola still available for about £4m?

Re: Gallas £15mil for those who cant do maths….

but what is the average decent left back actually worth? It sure aint £25m, that was an inflated price because we knew Chelsea were interested. Cole was probably worth more like the £16m that his buy out clause suggested.
Is Gallas worth £11m? Hell yes. have you seen him play? wasn't ferdinand sold for £28m or something? furthermore he is worth £11m because it weakens the opposition as well as strengthens us, its a bit like a 6 pointer.

Most Gooners I ask think Gallas is a better player than Cole anyway, so a swap plus £5m seems more than fair. The only difference then is the age of the two players.

Re: Everton 1-4 Arsenal - Arsenal Jump Above Manchester United To The Top Of The Table

suspensions take a week to come into force so Flam missed Burnley. that will just piss Diarra off even more!

great game. not in terms of flowing passing football but in terms of the qualities that were on show that other people often accuse us of lacking. these are the sorts of fixtures and matches that champions dig out. in the end the scoreline was flattering but even so I thought we were professional definitely deserved the 3 points.
