sabret00the said:fact of the matter is, Carrick wanted to come to us, said it was a dream (as did defoe for that matter) and we didn't go for him, then what happened we turned out to be light in central midfield and he was just the type of player we needed this season to fill in for Cygan.

invisibleman18 said:good point sabret, im getting fed up with people saying english is too expensive, so thats a good point about what Sp**s just got. heres another point, reyes and defoe were available around similar times. we went for reyes of course. defoe wouldve cost HALF the price, for twice the player.

wrong. sooooo wrong... defoe is a simple player, quick and he scores a few goals, but he is not an arsenal player. doesn't have the vision and flair for it. he is completely dependant on other players; kind of like owen. he is a striker. a star amongst average players; he is perfect for tottenham. not us...
