    My mate texted me a few weeks ago saying that he was trimming David Seaman's hedges, and that he came out and had a nice conversation with him about fishing and cabbages. And that he's a top bloke, which is something because my mate's a Spurs fan.

    A quick-witted mate of mine was doing some building work at the spuds training ground a few years back when the ball came flying over from the training pitch.

    Teddy Sheringham came to the side of the pitch and shouted for the builders to pass the ball back. My mate ran at it and booted it with his timberlands and it flew off in the wrong direction. Sheringham stood with his hands on his hips, shaking his head and said, "F***in hell."

    My mate shouted back, "Yeah - but I'd still get in your f****n team."

    Van Persie, Gibbs and Djourou's returns are imminent.
    Robin van Persie is on course to play some part in Arsenal's Premier League title run-in after the club's physiotherapist, Colin Lewin, said he would return to full training immediately.

    "Johan has made virtually a full recovery and we expect him to train fully with the squad within the next fortnight, as will Kieran," Lewin said. "They have both made full recoveries from what could have been career-threatening injuries. Robin will be joining the squad for full training immediately. That is a big boost for the club and to see Johan and Kieran training with the team in the next fortnight will give everyone a big lift. Cesc is doing well. He is likely to be out for the rest of the season but, if everything goes well, he will comfortably make the World Cup."

    Apparently Lewin reckons Aaron Ramsey could be ready to play early autumn.

    Which is great news.

    Indeed it is, now we have to hope that he makes a full recovery and fulfills his promise to become a great player. One look at Eduardo these days tells me that isn't certain by any means.:(

    I hope he does do exactly that. He is a player I would pay to watch.

    So Carlos Vela missed the Barcelona game because he couldn't find his passport.
    How professional of him:rolleyes:

    Nice to see we are raising the bar with our injuries still further by doubling up now: Song is out with two different injuries and Arshavin misses the rest of the season as he has torn TWO muscles.

    A heads up for any Gooners staying in tonight, Andrey Arshavin is on A Question Of Sport tonight. Should be amusing.

    That simply isn't going to happen. A player who has missed 6 months worth of football ( again) isn't going to starting games for sometime. He might be on the bench as a token gesture but no more than that.

    I'm pretty sure I saw him on the bench while watching the game :confused:

    Clubs used to hold onto players' passports for this reason.

    Why has that stopped?

    Wilshire actually came through your youth team didn't he?

    Jack Wilshire is my tip for the top .!

    A mixture of Liam Brady and Lionel Messi :)

    I'd have him in the World Cup squad to be honest .

    If he was ready for the World Cup he wouldn't be on loan at Bolton.

    He would be a damn sight more useful than Walcott was , 4 years ago .

    Just because he can't get into the Arsenal team doesn't mean he isn't good enough for England !!

    :)

    Come on you gunners !

    Wilshere isn't good enough to play for England anymore than Theo was 4 years ago or this year come to think of it.

    Dunno about you lot but I'm quite looking forward to not watching any football at all this weekend and trying to enjoy the sun.:)
