There's been some really interesting stuff written about Vermaelen's tendency to leave gaps in behind, even when he's playing well. Thomas Vermaelen’s poor positioning keeps costing Arsenal cheap goals | Zonal Marking is from towards the end of his best season, and Mark Hughes's leaked chalkboard from when he beat Arsenal with Citeh: http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m1wkv2gUmL1r2br9vo1_500.jpg.

It makes sense that he'd go to Barca because they like their defenders to press high up the pitch but this past season he's just been far too **** for them. More errors leading to goals than any other player I heard. Arsenal coming good towards the end of the season when they sat a bit deeper and stayed compact could have convinced Wenger he wants a less pro-active defender and Williams is really quite good.
Interesting your a big defender of Luiz' defending, but bring this up. Quite frankly neither are suited to England, but David looks a decent mid-fielder.

I'm not actually a big fan of Luiz's defending. It's just that he already gets a lot of flak for it but Vermaelen's similar issues have went under the radar a bit. It's also hard to criticise him at the moment because he's had such a good season.

Nah, he's had another nightmare season defensively, just awful, probably made less mistakes then TV, because he's not in that position any more.

Going around defending people because of general ignorance, is rather a thankless task, particularly in football.

Oh and Sean, it's London, of course it's a ****-hole.

Sounds like an absolute thicko. How the **** do you not learn a language after 2 years?
Key part of the article:

The 20-year-old Liverpudlian made the fairytale move to Bayern Munich from unfashionable League One side Tranmere Rovers just under two years ago.
Can't speak any language. Just produce some whiny noises that sound threatening and make dolphins cry.

Santos have accepted bids for Neymar every week for the last 3 years according to the media, just move already.

This time they have announced it officially.

And the 2 bids are from Real and Barca too. He is taking plenty of time to decide now and keep the attention on himself, though almost all reports say he will choose Barca.

Yeah that's the big bonus but would say he is likely to become a better player at Fulham or whatever.
