Vermaelen on getting the armband:

Quote:

"It makes me really happy and proud to be Arsenal captain - it's a real honour," the Belgian says in his programme notes for Saturday's match with Sunderland.

"I won't change the way I am, though. The boss makes you captain because of the way you are, so I won’t change how I am in the dressing room or outside. I want to lead by example, and do as well as I can on the pitch.

"Maybe I am not much of a talker away from the pitch, but I want to lead the team through the way I play."

Love that guy

Just a thought -- are we starting a new thread for the new season?

Good idea.

Meanwhile, Fulham have fined Clint Dempsey for refusing to play for the club. It's a damn shame its ended like this.

It's unfortunate, but I don't feel like Fulham have made much of an effort to move him despite knowing he wanted to leave shortly after the season ended

The Dutchman said Dempsey wanted to join a "Champions League" club which would rule out Liverpool but he then added: "I'm not sure if Liverpool is in the Champions League but if you look at the size of Liverpool, it's like a Champions League club.""

um wtf?!?!?!?!?

Are you kidding me?

So since Dempsey won't be playing in the EPL for the foreseeable future, as a noob to the league, who would be a solid replacement for my fantasy team (preferably a little cheaper than Deuce, too)?

hahaha

Nutmeg Radio ‏@NutmegRadio Wait, Clintopotamus Dempsey is the first American to strong arm a Premier League team. Aren't we supposed to have a party? We made it!

Blackburn and Arsenal were working out a deal for Chamakh but he doesn't want to play in the Championship. Then they went after John Guidetti but City says he won't be match fit until October. And then Blackburn had a deal set with Huddersfield for Jordan Rhodes but Huddersfield decided they wanted more money.

In short...we will never find another striker.

I'd actually like Carroll on loan as long as his match fit, no way would drop down a league though

Keisuke Honda won't leave CSKA Moscow for Lazio at the moment. "Right now I can't say anything about a transfer. But in considering what I want in my future, the image I had at 20 is different from the one I have at 26. My end goal hasn't changed. All I can say is that, even if Lazio approached me, I wouldn't go," he told Nikkan.


He doesn't want to become a goatfucker! yay!
