He was a good player, but Y think that Denilson can replace him or Abou Diaby they are realy good players, and Gilbero will bee a good in that place!
Arsene Wenger is looking for Rothen, and he will bee godd there!!!

Going through all the comment made by both Arsenal fans and AC Milan fans, this is what I choose to say; No bodybody is wiser'You know? Football is not what anybody can predict, it's like a swing, it carries you up as the swing goes up and down as the swing goes down. The ability to swing-up when you are down depend on how you treat those who swing you up from down. Though some will say, '' what the hell? It doesn't matter. Well one thing I 've learnt, is that , ''it matters. Thoes who go for greener pasture in stead of making one, end up frustrated. An example is the likes of Ziden who made green pasture for himself, today you can't talk of football without talking of him, or Gatuso who stayed to make AC Milan what it is today.
Hither-to people have been saying that money is the reason why Flamini signed up with Milan. But if you ask Flamini about his decision today and how it affected his life? Am sure he would like to turn back the hand of the clock because of lack of fulfillment and would 've been.
Thus,
every great footballer must make a green pasture for himself and not look for a made one.
''beware of mediocrty'' for its a bad disease

the fact is the entire european football goes in bad way. the players are overpaid, there is a huge financial imbalance among the clubs, there is no competition, always the same clubs win the trophies. arsenal are the only one big club fighting against these things. i don't care they don't win trophies, because arsenal have style, a team which can be loved . wenger is right, arsenal's policy is the future, to develop players. ironically, arsenal' s policy is criticized lot. but i think it thanks to the lack of english players. arsenal should develop several english/british players who loyal to the club. it is the only negative thing related to arsenal.
flamini can go wherever he wants if he doesn't know what he thanks to arsenal.

Thank you for that articulate comment milanfans. Illiterate italians aside, it's a shame to see Flamini leave (assuming this is true). He gave teeth to the Arsenal midfield that complimented his teammates technical prowess. When Flamini was not playing (FA Cup v. Man Utd for example) I felt like the Gunners were looking like pushovers. As one commentator noted, if Arsenal can thrive without Henry, it can thrive without Flamini. Aggressive, tireless midfielders are not so hard to come by and Wenger has an eye for talent. Too bad with AC Milan sitting in 5th place there is no chance for a little CL rematch between Arsenal and Milan.

When a player refuse to sign a new deal for so long, it's not likely that he'll stay. Wenger wasn't born yesterday. I'm sure he has already had someone in mind to replace Flamini.

There are players who can create like Hleb but on top of that scores as well. So, whats the whole worry thingy?

Players come and go... and the club moves on. So, fans should move on as well and look at the big picture.

i'm quite looking forward to song making the dm position his own.

flamini - conceded the free kick against birmingham, didn't clean up against liverpool, he's definitely not as good as the money he's asking.

He won't be half the player he is at the Arse. Wenger makes players better than they actually are. Look at all the players who were great at the Arse but half the players they were when they left. Cashley cole, Anelka, Henry, Viera, etc. I'm not an Arse fan, but Wenger is a great manager who makes players play their best.

if he was good last season, we would have signed him on a new contract he only started this season and definetly there would be replacements...infact he did well this season but gilberto is not bad he only suffered mentally cuz we gave the arms band to frenchy loser....the important thing is we cant afford to be fourth and third without silverwares..we need them and that is one of the reasons to keep a squad..u cant keep squad by selling better ones every season and not buying better replacements...Wenger we adore u but it seems you are losing it. get benzema, diarra was a mistake but go shopping we dont want potential and unknown we want experience and class..common gunners

Just because it's not on Arsenal.com doesn't mean it's not official. They don't have to release information like this immediately and I doubt they'd want to. I have heard that the AC deal for Flamini is done as is the Inter deal for Hleb (from someone heavily involved with Arsenal).
Flamini has had a very good season but let's be honest, he isn't a world class player and he never will be. It's a shame because whether a new DM comes in or Denilson is picked for that spot a new midfield partnership will have to develop, once again taking time. Fabregas and Flamini worked well. Denilson showed signs of promise against Derby tonight though...still it would have been nice to have Diarra around. Considering the outcome we might have been better off if he'd started more games ahead of Flamini.

I'm not too concerned about Hleb leaving either. He is very talented but what he provides isn't nearly as useful without a poacher like Eduardo available. My only worry is that a loss of a right winger will make Wenger consider keeping Eboue for that position. He has been AWFUL there this season. I'm not saying there's no chance he'll improve, I just doubt it.

If it's true that Flamini and Hleb are both off I believe we need 6 players coming in. Vela is one but also a keeper, a centre-back, a winger, a DM and either a striker or another winger. I just don't see this happening which worries me because then the squad will be EVEN THINNER than it was this season...

Alex Hleb — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 15:08:26 -0000

FFS get a grip.

I remember at the beginning of this season we was supposed to fighting for 5th with the spuds... henry left and it was doom and gloom.

Have any of you watched some of the reserve games i bet that is no... there is fantastic talent at arsenal. Let flammini go we cant complain he came for free and will leave on a free... no big deal we done it to sol campbell with tottenham i just wish the gooners saying things like "NOOOOO please dont do it" grow the fook up it makes us normal easy going fans look like cnuts!

let anyone that want to go GO and dont look back just forward we are not the most successful side in LONDON because we are crap!

Its because we have wenger.

Milan's and Flam's gain, arsenal's lost. All the years of preparation and maturing at arsenal is lost - becos arsene refuse to pay top money for top quality.

let's wait till arsenal makes an official announcement before we debate it, and start critique on flamini...

having said that, if flamini indeed signed for another team, it'd not be a disaster and more a nuisance

he's had ONE great season, in addition to being a good utility player in past years and esp in our run to CL final as a makeshift LB... credit where it's due

but, it's not fair for flamini to expect a stellar rise at this time; he's not proven and leveraging contract renewal to squeeze arsenal doesn't seem the right thing to do... hope it's the agent who's advising

Flamini is the outstanding Mid-fielder along side with Fab. However, his leaving is not the end for Gunners. Remember we lost Thiery and Viera and we are still there. I hope he will not go to..................

If Flamini goes it will be to Juventus - why would a guy who is used playing in the champs league sign for a team that didnt qualify?

Re: Flamini Signs With AC Milan

Janti — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 09:01:06 -0000

I've met Flamini. He's a cock and likes to get pissed. Good riddance. He's best friends with Hleb, so trust me - if Flam goes Hleb will follow.

Doesn't matter though; neither are world class.

He's a decent player but not great. A couple of bad games for Milan and he'd be in the reserves, he won't get as much chance as he does at Arsenal, but then again, hardly anyone leaves Arsenal and becomes a better player!
