We need to change his nickname

Jojo sounds like a clown's name

by Chumlum Mon Apr 29, 2013 4:48 pm

Jova. Like Jay-Z's "Hova." Can be pronounced with a j-sound or the y-sound, whatever you want.

I dont trust him anymore to be honest.

Because he would not sell to them or we have nothing they would want?

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has distanced himself from reports suggesting that he will replace Carlo Ancelotti at Paris Saint-Germain this summer.

Despite being set to guide PSG to the Ligue 1 title this season, Ancelotti is being tipped to leave the French capital at the end of the season in order to take over from Jose Mourinho at Real Madrid.

Wenger, who has been at Arsenal since October 1996, insists he will see out his contract with the north London club which expires at the end of next season.

"I have always respected my contracts and at my age I will not change anything," Wenger told reporters.

"I am concentrated on the next match and I am already preparing for the next season.

Wenger guided his side to a 1-1 draw against Manchester United on Sunday as Theo Walcott's early strike was cancelled out by Robin van Persie's penalty.

With three Premier League match remaining, Arsenal currently sit fourth, two points ahead of Tottenham, who have a game in hand over their north London rivals.

Arsene is staying for next season :coffee:

But Twitter told me it's a done deal! scratch

Also, you can still nickname a player who doesn't play for Arsenal. Like how I call Patrice Evra "that assclown."

I really want Benteke think he is exactly the type of CF we need, a very good option if Jovetic doesn't happen.

If he arrived, would imagine Wenger has (finally) given up on Diaby.

Benteke

1 season wonder or genuinely good ?

by Jay29 Mon Apr 29, 2013 9:31 pm

Benteke hat-trick.

Could be an option. hmm

by Lex Mon Apr 29, 2013 11:08 pm

Do people honestly think Benteke would be an improvement to Giroud? I see that as a giant step down (with all due respect to Benteke)

by RealGunner Mon Apr 29, 2013 11:12 pm

Not sure he would be. Giroud is technically better. Benteke is a better finisher and actually knows how to use his strength.

Well Villa do play to his strenghts, we never really use Giroud's

by Emaharg Mon Apr 29, 2013 11:19 pm

I think only thing that Giroud has over Benteke is link up play and technically more sound but that's only from watching both this season.
Benteke is 3 years younger than Giroud as well.
