Robert Pires Thinks Eden Hazard Has “Very Rare” Talent – We Know! Sign Him!!
Former Arsenal player Robert Pires has been speaking to the press about his future in the game and his liking of Lille playmaker Eden Hazard who he thinks is a “very rare” talent.
Hazard has been a target for Arsenal for some time now, but reports over the past few weeks have been suggesting that Real Madrid are closer to signing him. Pires said about the young Belgian “His instinctive nature and willingness to constantly disrupt the opposing defence is very rare to find at this level.”
Just the kind of player we desperately need. Please don’t sign for Real Madrid, Eden, you will be on the bench, if you sign for us you will get a chance to shine and play every week.
Pires has been without a club now since he was released by Aston Villa at the end of last season and is unsure whether he will continue playing on. He told L’Equipe, “I can continue looking for a club for the next couple of weeks, then I will have to wait until the winter market opens and that is quite far away. In the next few days I will make a decision about my future.”
Shame you are 37 Robert and not 27! He also said, “I don’t want to end my career on the back of my experience at Aston Villa last season. I still have the desire and motivation. We will see what happens in the coming days. I appreciate that I am shifting towards the end of my career.”
Hazard is one player that is not at the end of his career and us supporters would love to see him at the Emirates. Come on the board members at Arsenal. Give Arsene Wenger the tools he needs to do his job properly.

Arsene & Arsenal really need Gaf#ckfacezidis n Mr. Rice replaced , rice has served us well both as a player n a staff member n should retire NOW as he WANTED TO LAST SEASON. While the Man Sh*ty supporter should run NOW B4 an angry mob burn down his Mansion/s. Bergkamp the ORIGINAL flying dutchman and the most loyal non english gooner ever 2 grace the club, who’s full of ambition n just led ajax 2 glory last season N MORE IMPORTANTLY was an expensive player THAT ARSENE WENGER SIGNED should replace rice coz he will remind arsene of what made us & himself great, mixing raw youth talent(clichy, fabregas, Van persie, cole, Anelka even Reyes was okay exc. ) with players of experience n class (the great dutchman himself, King thierry, adams, Viera exc.) plus he will convince RVP 2 stay n can teach walcott, gervinho, vela HOW 2 F*CKING SHOOT.
it is NO coincidence that since this “true gooner” David Dein was kicked out 4 standing up 4 arsene n the fans, our most high profile signing has been Andrei Arshavin n that was 15 Fuc*ing million from a guy who was from russia side Moscow or some sh*t. this man will smack the board straight ALL WE NEED IS THE FANS 2 PROTEST HIS RETURN. with our backing the board wouldn’t dare firing him again n arsene needs 2 threaten resigning as well if he is not brought back.
i don’t know how many people have to say it. (fans, gervinho, vermaelen, RVP said we neededa MARQUEE SIGNING) WE NEED EDEN HAZARD. if he or goetze is not signed I WILL NEVER 4GIVE ARSENE OR THE BOARD.
GOONER TILL I DIE

van persie:”"I do not know.For one thing as an indication, when I came to Arsenal we immediately beat City.
“But in recent years much has happened in England.”
Nevertheless, I think the Premiership is still the best league in the world, it gives me everything I want.”
oh dear,i bet all this thoughts would have crossed his mind after d recent derby.actually i was thinking 2 myself (after d game) what he would be having in his mind considering he was unsure about his contract extension……….and here it comes!!!
so finally the board’s wage structure and arsenal’s transfer policy is bearing fruit……….

Oi Malik. BRUCE RIOCH signed DENNIS BERGKAMP. WHY DO PEOPLE HAVE TO WRITE IN CAPITALS? We can read normal font just fine.

Bergkamp was signed by Rioch and should be our #2. Hazard is out of reach for arsenal we can afford him, but would never pay the asking fee or the wages, unless usmanov took over. Dortmund will not sell gotze unless manchester or real barca come in.

just give this players what they really want, you guys may not understand what is going on there, but one thing for sure is ,this players want increasing of their salaries , like VANPERSIE,and THEO-WALCCOT , although this players have has gotten their positions in arsenal, so the best thing to do is increase their salaries , so that they can be happy ,to play with all of their heart, that’s it, and at the same time VAN PRE-SIE can also extend his contract as well, and some other respective players in arsenal can as well do.
so wenger the best you will do now is increase all this players their salaries, and sign HAZARD , now HAZARD could go to REAL-MADRID because of the salaries they may lay down to him, nothing much a player need now except of money , cos through money they can be of their best YES….
get VENTROGHEN as well and SAHA/LOVE/FALCAO/JESUS/BEST/CAROLL/HUNTELER/PATO/ or get us MERIDA back .
then midfield, first for most , GOUCOURF/MARTIN-MARVIN/M’VILLA/GOTZE.
goal-keeping, SKELENBURG, because SZCENY cannot do everything, we need CHAMPIONS-LEAGUE experience not CARLING-CUP EXPERIENCE

1. NO chance of Arsenal putting down at least 30 mil on 1 player! NO %^#}{} chance.
2. If presented with a choice between Arsenal and Real, he will choose Real. They offer more money and he will have a chance to play with some of the most talented players in the world: Ronaldo, Ozil, Benzema, Higuain, Kaka. Just to name a few.
3. The question of champions league football. Come january will he be sure that Arsenal will qualify for the champions league.
IMO he is more likely to join City than Arsenal if he were to come to the premier league.
We dont have the money nor the footballing incentive to draw big talents like that. We have our development model and therefore we wont bid big money so I would suggest that nobody gets their hopes up cause you will be dissapointed!

If you were Eden Hazard and two teams wanting you – Arsenal or Real Madrid who would you go to? Not a touch choice at all. It would be a different story if Arsenal were doing well and had some world class players in our team. Not so. Who would want to join the downhill spiral of Arsenal at this present time? If anything, we will continue to lose the rest of our good players. RVP has already shown signs of leaving. And I bet my left nut that Wenger will assure us he will be a ‘fool’ to let RVP go. So in other words Wenger, you are a fool because you said the same thing about Fabregas.
If nothing happens this next transfer windows ie we do not sign at least 3 or 4 world class players, players who we know will make the change needed to be title contenders, then people need to start getting hurt. The board of Arsenal in particular and Kroenke. They need to be well aware that the fans are actually what make AFC a success. Without our support, AFC is as good as a charity organization.
We will not win a thing this season, let’s face facts here. So all we can do is support our current players, but be completely indifferent to the bloodsucking shareholders and board members. Banners need to be displayed at games showing our dissaproval of the way things have been run. If I lived in England you bet I would be there doing exactly that. True gooners need to grow a pair of balls and start taking back what is rightfully theirs. We need Usmanov back in, therefore Dein will follow and we can start making the necessary changes. Usmanov is way more wealthy than Kroenke anyway and will not mind splashing out a bit on the class we desperately need.

If anyone thinks he will come to arsenal now is seriously ill in the head. Arsenal has now got ONE World class player. And next season we will be lucky to play in the Europa.

From the way Arsenal plays and from Frank Rijkaard’s way of coaching,these two match/fit very well.So because of this,I think Arsenal should just FIRE/SACK WENGER and replace him with Frank Rijkaard as its coach.Rijkaard is just the right person/coach who can make Arsenal to be winning trophies. Also other Dutch coaches like Frank De Boer,Guus Hiddink, Ruud Gullit,Marco Van Basten,Bert Van Marwijk[Netherlands' national team current coach],Louis Van Gaal,Dick Advocaat, etc can make Arsenal to win trophies.

Arsenal is fearing/doesn’t want to FIRE/SACK Wenger because Wenger is a major shareholder of Arsenal/has shares in Arsenal.But this alone should not deter/prevent them from firing Wenger;because if they fire Wenger,he’ll demand all his Arsenal shares to be given back to him.And if he [Wenger] does this[demanding to be given all his shares] when he is fired it’s just simple: Other Arsenal shareholders/board members who are rich/billionaires like Stan Kroenke and Alicia Usmanov can just give/pay him money [whichever amount of money] that is equivalent to all his Arsenal shares plus even some bonus/top-up and then fire him and replace him with any one of these elegant,skillful,tactful,non-mean/non-selfish,non-greedy and non-economical/non-economist/non-economiser coaches:
Frank Rijkaard,Martin Keown,Guus Hiddink,Frank De Boer, Louis Van Gaal,Ruud Gullit,Dunga,Hassan Shehata[former Egypt coach],Marco Van Basten,Ronald Koeman,Bert Van Marwijk [current Netherlands' national team coach],Dick Advocaat,Gordon Stratchan,etc.
But for this case I think and I just prefer Frank Rijkaard as the right successor of Wenger as Arsenal coach who can make Arsenal to be winning trophies because Frank Rijkaard’s style of coaching and Arsenal’s style of play/ game-plan/game-style just match properly.So if Frank Rijkaard succeeds Wenger as Arsenal’s coach,am sure before God he [Rijkaard] will bring glory/success to Arsenal and make Arsenal to be winning trophies season in season out/year in year out!
For God’s sake YES MORE BUT NO LESS OF THE ABOVE!

Robert Pires is right to say that Hazard should come to Arsenal,but Arsenal should just remove/pay whichever amount of money that Hazard’s current club will demand in the 2012 January transfer window to avoid being snatched by Real Madrid because am told that Real Madrid are also hunting for Hazard so much and Real Madrid can pay whichever money to buy a player-even 40 million Euros and above.So Arsenal,if you want to buy Hazard tie up your knot financially in January.

his a great talent wenger has been looking at him for bout 4 years now
he should of sign him a few years ago
now his price is round 30 mill
and with real madrid inter and am sure other clubs would want him
considering we might not even finishe in the top 4
we can not pay him what most clubs would
i just got a feeling we wont get him considering how things are unless we start to have a good run and bloody win something anythingggggggggggg.
we need to spend big this year
bring just 1-2 bigggg names world class players.
imaging haveing goezt and hazard wilshaire v perise in a attacking side.
the board need to spend big or risk speeding the next 10 years trying to get in the top 4.
arsenal as a club has gone down hill
fans are not happy lets hope we win something and finishe 4th.
we just missing one or two world class players
if we bring them in we will be there with the best again.

We need to sign him. Wenger have the money but I don’t think he will buy him bcoz Wenger is Wenger that man can’t buy ecpensive players. Very rich club like Real Madrid can challenge us to by players. Wenger vs Real’s money? Wenger don’t have a chance bcoz Wenger is a cheap manager that we know. If ancelotti get management it will be no problem at all to buy expensive but very good players.

Einar,if you are saying that if on January Wenger doesn’t buy class elegant non-injury prone players you must get a new manager/coach,you Arsenal fans who stay in London are the ones who should do this by pressurizing,protesting and demonstrating bitterly,forcefully,tirelessly,seriously and even sleeplessly for Arsenal board and management to FIRE OR SACK Wenger,otherwise for God’s sake Arsenal’s board itself/ on its own CANNOT fire Wenger.
