"The one thing I would say from my experience as a player is that you never know when you are going to get injured," added Pearce. "I would say to any player, 'If you are selected for your national team, play as many matches as you can'. I did. I'm not speaking as someone who has been through the mill and picked and chosen my games. You bet your bottom dollar, when you are 35 or 40, you cannot do it any more. I can't play any more. I wish I could."
Pearce argued that Walcott will not have played much more football this summer by being involved with both national teams. Walcott appeared for only 45 minutes of the 4-0victory in Kazakhstan last Saturday and were he not now preparing for the Andorra game, Pearce said that he would have played him in the Under-21s' warm-up fixture against Azerbaijan in Milton Keynes on Monday night, which England won 7-0.
Wenger is expected to give Walcott extended leave and ask him to report back for pre-season training in the third week of July.
Tevez anaondoka Man U ,kuwa mchezaji sio lazima kufunga bali ni mchango gani unutoa kwenye timu ,unamaanisha kwamba mchezaji anayefunga magoli mengi ndio bei yake inongezeka so Anelka ana bei kubwa kuliko Tores kisa kafunga magoli mengi,wachezaji wa England ni expensive ndio maana hapo Arsenal amebaki Walcott
...bwana mdogo aache ukaidi, mtu mwenyewe 'spana mkononi'.
Tatizo hawa FA hawajali maslahi ya mchezaji wala muajiri wake, kwa nini wamchague huku na huku? hio under 21 ni useless tounarment,.
Ingekuwa mitaa ya juu kwa wale watafuna maBig G, wasingethubutu kuwafanyia upuuzi kama huu! Its time for Wenger to take a stand against this FA mob.
None of the team managers has taken action against FA and won the case... England is bigger than the arses!!
...mkuu, Javier Mascherano kariibu naye atatia wino Real Madrid
we acha tu!! presha inapanda...presha inashuka!! lakini naskia anaenda barca na xabi anaenda madrid... labda tutamrudisha dialo na diouf
Naona wamarekani washafulia sasa tunaokota tu vipande vya kimemo
...bwana mdogo aache ukaidi, mtu mwenyewe 'spana mkononi'.
kweli kabisa bubu kaachwe kakomae kazidi kuwa sleki sleki.kila siku siku anavunjika mabega utasema ndege.kikiacha kukimbia kimbia bila akili ndio atapunguza kuumia umia.manake sometimes anakimbia hata kama beki kasimama tu yeye hata aangalii anaenda kujigonga tu kwake lol.sema kanatutoa kinoma.he is our future.
Msimu ujao bingwa Manchester City (lakini wamfukuze Hughes kwanza watafute kocha wa maana kama Hiddink au Rijkard)

Bwana mdogo mimi namuunga mkono maana kucheza mechi nyingi ndiyo kunamuongezea uzoefu zaidi. I hope makocha wake watakuwa considerate hivyo kutomchezesha kwa dakika 90 katika mechi nyingi. Wenger kutokana na poor record yake anaanza kupoteza heshima miongoni mwa wachezaji wake.
Arsenal midfielder Amaury Bischoff set for free transfer to PSG
11/06/2009
With his contract at Arsenal winding down at the end of the month, midfielder Amaury Bischoff is set for a move to Ligue 1 side Paris Saint Germain.
The 22-year-old central midfielder was a surprise purchase last summer from Werder Bremen and he struggled for playing time at the Emirates and he also had fitness problems, including a groin operation.
Bischoff made just one Premier League appearance, as a substitute in the 3-0 win at Portsmouth in early May, he also made three other substitute appearances in the FA Cup and Carling Cup.
The Portuguese Under-21 international also played nine times for the Arsenal reserve team.
Sporting Lisbon, Benfia and FC Porto had all been linked with a move for Bischoff but it is believed that Arsene Wengers contacts with the Parisian giants has swayed the move.
There is also speculation that the deal may influence Arsenals efforts to secure highly-rated young PSG striker Jimmy Kamghian.
hili ndio kosa letu.si tungemkopesha tu hili tumuangalie kwanza? papara zetu za kumuuza diara ndio maana tukabaki patupu flamini alivyiondoka.uwezo wa kumkopesha diara pompey ulikuwepo lakini ndio sometimes makosa ya wajina....ebo! yaani Ronaldo kwakuwa tu ni midfielder ndiyo anunuliwe kwa £80m ? pambaf...Arsenal kwa kudhihirisha jeuri wamemtoa bureeee mreno wao, Amoury Bischoff!🙁
Huenda na Walcott akaja kushine Man U endeleeni kumlea...i do agree with you, tatizo nilionalo mimi hawa wachezaji msimu mpya ukianza wanakuwa tayari 'burn out' kutokana na kutopata mapumziko ya kutosha, ukizingatia Theo mwenyewe hilo tatizo la bega amezaliwa nalo.
Anyway, ...chini ya Wenger, nyota ya Theo haiwezi kung'ara Arsenal. Theo ananikumbusha 'prodigy' mwingine aliyeanzia mpira Arsenal 1989-1992, akaishia kung'ara Man United 1995 -2001-Andrew 'Andy' Cole!
