Need to be over 100 to remember Arsenal being relegated, last happened in 1913
But only over 10 to remember them being the most boring team in all of creation for 100 years.
Think you might need to go and check your definition of boring, it seems to be confused with something.
Yeah...righto. All my life (until Wenger's arrival) Arsenal were known as 'Boring Boring Arsenal' fella. It even gets a mention on Arsenal's Wiki page yes
If it is on Wiki, it must be true.......

I do remember the Boring boring Arsenal chants...but 10 was a distance memory for me!

So attractive that loads of season ticket holders can't be bothered to turn up, unless they come dressed as a padded red seat of course

Thats what happens at a big club. Although we sell out each game there is always a few who don't turn up. But it's nowhere near as bad as you spuds like to make out. Perhaps you should come see for your self one day. See how a big club operates, More often then not i have a spare wink

I am lost, someone has misquoted....10 is a distant memory, meaning vaguely remember it...

They were unhappy with his performances and whilst he did indeed score goals he was apparently prone to missing absolute sitters...think 'Argentinian Adebayor'.
Have just been reading an article about Higuain and apparently stats show that he is a more clinical finisher than the likes of Falcao, Samuel Eto'o, Sergio Aguero, David Villa and Cristiano Ronaldo

http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-ne...

Article says said:
Since joining Real Madrid in 2007, only Lionel Messi (29.45) has a better shot conversion rate than his compatriot (28.31) among those players to have scored more than 50 goals.

This ranks Higuaín as a more clinical finisher than the likes of Falcao, Samuel Eto'o, Sergio Aguero, David Villa and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Last season it was once more only Messi that could better his shot conversion rate, and while Gonzalo Higuaín was netting once for every three shots he took (33.33%), Arsenal's top scorer Walcott only managed 22.58% with second-top Santi Cazorla's 12 goals down at just 16%.
I hope the rumours are true and this deal is indeed done.
