I can't believe people are discussing Arteta as an acceptable option. The bloke is 33 years old, can't complete 90 minutes, has never lasted a full season injury free in his career and would just be an awful awful signing.

He signed a one year extension at arsenal recently so hopefully if there is any truth in his agent having an appointment at the AOL, it has nowt to do with Arteta.

If we go into another season with a half arsed, patched up squad then SAFC can just fuck right off
We already have, haven't we?
 
Cant say id be overly excited by Arteta at this stage of his career. Dont want any more residents at the SAFC retirement home.
 
Ibanez also represents Jonathas de Jesus centre forward for Real Socidedad think he has just signed for them though.
 
We have indeed....but there is still a chance to quickly do something about it.

If we signed Arteta then my faith in the current administration (not that it bothers them either way) will be irreparably damaged
I watched MOTD and MOTD2 at the weekend, and at the risk of being accused of being a bedwetter, I was thoroughly depressed at the way other teams have developed, compared to the utter dogshit we have.

This is the reason normally sane people are going postal marra. Nobody expects miracles but we do expect the folks running the club to learn the lessons of the past 2 seasons and beyond. Giving contracts to Brown, buying cheap replacements, bringing in players with no resale value.....it all smacks of amateur hour.

When I have had jobs where I was not set for success for reasons beyond my control, I have wrapped in and gone somewhere else. There are 2 possibilities with Congerton, either he is inept and thinks he is doing enough to improve the team or he hasn't got the balls to tell the owner to invest or he fucks off.

Dick summed it up.....every other club has bought 2 Lens' quality players. Given our starting point we probably needed to buy at least 4
 
Wonder how the meeting with Congers went. Hopefully Arteta has signed on.
 
Yes.

Did you expect an immediate deal from a single visit from an agent?
No, just wondering if an interesting snippet had been confirmed in any way and whether there was any indication whether Arteta was the player or not. Obviously a lot of the ITK stuff on here is nonsense but this one seemed likely to be true in as far as the agent visiting but I suspect that kind of thing happens quite often and just wondered if there was any additional info to suggest who the player was. Cheers for the info.

The agent thing generally does happen a lot, although I'd never seen this lads name before and was wondering what the craic was, hence asking the almighty.

I haven't heard or been informed of anything magical just yet, but if I do (and it's a rather large if, if anything is happening) then I'll be sure to update the thread.

Any clue if it was regarding a transfer or just a normal agent meeting the club for other reasons. (Training or scouting clients.)
