Robin Van Persie has signed with Man U!!!!!!!!! What did I tell you? Oh yeah I called it! Cause they really needed another striker?? Rooney wasn't enough? they needed to add another top 5 strike to their team? With Rooney's injury, this sign is looking good...

Not really all that excited at all.. I actually quite dislike Balotelli.. talented player but he is a ME player not a team player.

Arsenal is still in need of a great striker to replace RVP, but Balotelli is such an ass, on and off the pitch. I don't like having that type of player on my team.

You know, it seems like a lot of people think this way about Balotelli. I don't get the impression that he's a bad guy at all though. Seriously, what has he done that's so awful? I know about a lot of his antics, and I don't think any of them make him seem like a bad person, besides his four game suspension for the stomp on Scott Parker.. That was absolutely uncalled for. Even still, that's only one incident. Everybody loses their temper from time to time, I'm certainly guilty of it, so I don't criticize him too much for that one. He likes to troll people, but I think it's without any ill intent. I also feel kind of sorry for the guy because of the racist bullshit he's gone through at AC Milan.

I don't necessarily think he's a bad person, he just acts like a rich, spoiled brat who doesn't think before he acts. There is no doubt of his talent, but when you regularly take stupid penalties and cards on the pitch, you're a liability to your team. Then there is all of the off field absurdity like owing thousands in parking tickets, getting into various car crashes, lighting his house on fire by misusing fireworks at 1am, etc. Like I said, I don't really think he is a terrible person, he is just really rich, really immature and seems to lack an ability to determine what is appropriate to do, both on and off the field, and what is not. keepingscore.blogs.time.com/2013/02/01/ciao-mario-looking-back-at-mario-balotellis-turbulent-time-in-the-english-premier-league/

I like Sanchez... He is very talented. I also heard them mention at one point that Julian Draxler (young German CAM) was linked to talks with Arsenal as well... I like hearing that.

Draxler seems like he's pretty good for his age, but I must admit, the only reason I'm saying that is because he has a good Fifa rating  . I've never seen him play in real life. I didn't follow Arsenal all that closely last year, so there is a chance I don't know what I'm talking about, but do we really need more CAMs? We already have who is probably the best CAM in the world (Ozil) and another really, really good one with Santi Cazorla. Not to mention Rosicky who is solid. But hey, I guess you can never have too much quality. So Draxler would be a nice addition. We're also supposedly in the market for a good CDM, I've read we aren't controlling the midfield like we should be and we need someone who can patrol the midfield and dominate possession. Supposedly we're in talks to sign Sami Khedira, which would be awesome..
