TITI TELLS MORE LIES, WENGER HASN'T RULED OUT THE SEX GOD'S RETURN
In response to rumours that the Keegs has started looking into bringing Titi over to Newcastle, the French sex god/bastard has let loose yet another big fat lie:
"I’m happy - I don’t regret leaving Arsenal."
Oh, is that why you've scarcely ceased blabbing about how much you love London and Arsenal since you've landed in Barcelona? In fact, Titi, according to our expert calculations, you've spent more time blabbing about your 'love for Arsenal' than you have trying to score goals. You're like Arsenal's very own Spanish PR branch.
More Arsenal PR:
"There’s only one team in for me. Everybody knows the love and affection I have for Arsenal. I was so into it, I became a fan."
In Titi-speak that's - 'I want back in the EPL but I'm defo not going to Newcastle, okay? Thas' jus' crazy talk! Don't you people know I'm a pretend Gooner now? I only have love for Arsenal. Well, when they gots my 10 milly...'
It's been no secret that Thierry isn't exactly having the time of his life over in Spain (well, save for those moments where we spot him patting young Bojan on the head - they just look so gleeful together; it excites us ridiculously) - it's quite obvious - and transfer talk hasn't let up for even a moment since he touched down in Barcelona.
The grapevine has tipped him for a return to Arsenal, a move to New York in what looked to be a Beckham-like deal, then to Seattle (oh, the LOLz) and now Kevin Keegan's supposed to be trying to drag him to Newcastle.
Wenger's comments on the Titi to Arsenal rumours:
"You can never say never, but at the moment I don't think about that ... I had a chat with Thierry not a long time ago. He watches every Arsenal game – he can keep me advised! I watch Barcelona as well when I can. I'm always interested in how he looks, how he has found his sharpness, in what position he plays."
Pray tell Titi, when will the madness end? When will you stop toying with Gooner-girls' emotions like this? It just ain't right, babe.
Won't you take off your shirt and make it better?
TIET's Final Verdict: So, is a return to Arsenal plausible? Yes. How likely is it to happen? As amazing as it would be to see Cesc and Titi smiling, wearing the same shirts once more and man-hugging after goals, we'd venture to say not very. Bringing Titi back to the Emirates just doesn't seem like a fully formed idea, or a good one, at that. People have been quick to slot Arsenal into the 'team in crisis' category when, in reality, that isn't actually the case. Yes, they've got a few glitches: defense has been scrappy lately, Eboue is clearly not a midfielder, Gallas is a wishy-washy captain and Ade/Bendtner doesn't work but they simply don't need Thierry back. They've done better without him. That doesn't mean Wenger isn't going to have to do some major buying this summer though: if Flamini and Hleb (the ice cream in Milan is so very yummy), who are waffling over signing new contracts end up splitting, and Wenger does the right thing by letting Eboue go, we might see a brand new Arsenal midfield next season.
Hopefully they buy some hotties.
Anywhoo, what say you Gooner ladies? Should Titi be invited back into the fold or should Wenger be more concerned with buying other - er, not possibly over-the-hill - strikers?

I think it footballing terms it would be a big mistake. The team looked better without him for most of last season, he doesn't have the personality of a captain (well, neither does Gallas, but that's another issue), and his hissy fits are deeply unhelpful.
In fact, let's face it, he is over the hill. He should be retired from the onerous duties of professional football and moved into a new, perhaps more horizontal role. I'm sure we could come up with some ideas. Perhaps a rota system of some kind?

I hope Wenger doesn't take him back - it's like his policy not to! He didn't take Anelka back so he hopefully won't take Henry back... He does seem to have a thing for him though. But taking him back would be like taking back a boyfriend who cheated on you... It would feel so dirty and just plain wrong. Next season gonna be interesting though. I want Eboue out the team and our midfield will suffer without Hleb, Flamini and Gilberto because then our subs will kinda suck as well apart from Walcott... But it'll still be interesting.
MG - All of those sound ideas sound brill. Especially the last one.
Spangly Princess - Welcome, nice to see you 'round these parts. He was never really a great captain at the end of the day - not when it really mattered, at least. I don't know if selfish would be the right word but it wouldn't be far from it. A horizontal role, you say? I can think of a few horizontal roles for le captain...
CLB - It would be a bit weird wouldn't it? I don't know why Wenger's been so hasty in pushing old timers like Gilberto and Lehmann out.

1) Free transfer- why the heck should we have to pay for someone who is already spiritually ours?
2) Cut in wages. If he's as Goonertastic as he claims to be, £6.70 an hour should surely suffice. But we'll give him £7, cos we're generous.
3) He has to wash his team-mates' boots.
4) I am to lick his neck after each home game.
Welcome back, Itit! :D
