Stewart Downing

but Holding’s hair transplant was painless
Downing on the left, bring Pennant back to play on the right and have Giroud upfront. Would a be a dream... A very bad dream

League is very weak
He's a decent crosser, better than anything we have, Giroud will appreciate that.

Lets look at the positives lads, come on.

Downing :shock:
How consistently bad does a player have to be?
What does it take for a player so average to do, to prove he should have stayed in the Championship?

Having players like Denilson and Ramsey playing regularly for us is bad enough but to actually buy a player who is consistently under average would be the height of stupidity.

This is never going to happen.

There are no positives it didnt work with Carroll it wont work with Giroud. 0 goals or assists last season simply an awful player.

the difference is that silvestre had a lot of experience, and on the surface, seemed like a good idea. I seem to remember people being happy about his arrival, because it was around the time when we completely lacked any sort of older experienced player, and here we were buying one who had won quite a few trophies and played for some major teams.

Downing however has absolutely nothing to go by. He's just terrible.


(watch wenger sign him and somehow make him world class...)

Embarrassing thread. This is a stupid DM rumor wind up. Don't fall for it.
Most rumours are stupid, but this one is so stupid hopefully it sucks all of the stupid out of all of the other rumours for about the next 5 seasons.

(Christ, if it happened though ... :shock: ).

The problem with ironic posts such as the above (made to derive humour I presume) is the actual possibility of this happening.

Arsenal sign Downing, Downing proves he isn't up to it at another club, more money down the drain, and you'll be ridiculed for your post.

Not worth it IMO.

Don't deserve a thread here, go straight to anti-wish list.

Heard this joke...



QNS: Why can't Downing vote in the elections?

ANS: Because he can't put a cross in the box.

Tweety didn't cost 10 million.

Thought he was pretty **** during his Middlesborough days, when he used to get a lot of praise, and he's got a thousand times worse since then. This would be an appalling signing.
