And good luck Nice.Two-time Arsenal double winner Gilles Grimandi is the new technical director at Nice -- which I think is very nice. Good luck Gilles!

Really good news that Santi is playing regularly again it's a pity that he had all those injuries at Arsenal he was a fantastic player for us he could have been so influential in the team that we have got now.
very sad. Good fortune to him.
Tore his ****ing ACL a 3rd time sounds like.
Sad news. Hope he figures it all out in retirement.
WAIT WAIT hold up, Frimmy played in the Swedish first league? Had no idea :rofl:, Eskilstuna is only an hour and a half from where I live as well! To think I missed an opportunity to be blessed by the Dench.

Was actually his torn ACL that messed him up. When he tore it a 2nd time in the same knee, he was never gonna play at the levels he could have had he not gotten injured. Same with Afobe - could have had a way different career were it not for 3 ACL injuries.His career went downhill since these Dench stuff he had potential
I didn't know this. I remember both breaking through and being so hopeful they'd make it here.Was actually his torn ACL that messed him up.

Bob Bradley's pep talk has turned Carlos Vela into Lionel Messi. Well, at least close enough for LAFC anyway...
Must be something Bradley does on the training ground, cause that talk was kinda cringey
Always like Vela, think he could've come good as an understudy/backup to van Persie. The MLS is gradually doing better now, but it's still a bit funny how some decent forward coming from Europe is turning into Messi. I mean Giovinco and Vela always had more in them than what they ended up doing in European leagues, but still.
MLS is getting better and better, but I really think increase in the overall level of attacking talent has outpaced the level of defenders and GKs. Which is why guys like Gio and Vela are able to do so well when the come in.Must be something Bradley does on the training ground, cause that talk was kinda cringey

He wowed me during the preseasons when he broke through.By the way, for those who may have missed it, Gedion Zelalem became both an ex-Gunner and an MLS player today with his transfer to Sporting Kansas City. Hopefully this move with kickstart his career. Kid has some sublime talents, but it seemed like every time he began to make progress at Arsenal he had some sort of injury setback. His lack of physicality didn't help.
So many good onesTHIS IS GOLD
Samir Nasri
He always thought he was some kind of gangster. Everyone has this guy at school, who had strong and big friends and it made him think he’s cool.
Alexandr Hleb
He could have achieved more in football. He still made a great career but he liked to drink.
