I seem to remember Arsenal bought some T.Henry bloke back in the day who had plenty of talent but didn't exactly impress on the wing .He went away for six months, beefed himself up, played as a CF and became an Arsenal legend. Gai is def worth a punt, afterall he may not of been ready for how physical the English game is. If we don't snap him up, we'll regret it!

  I agree markymark03 that as a member of the squad Assulin might be worth a punt depending on what other options Poyet is pursuing. Size isn't everything. Messi and Tevez aren't exactly giants and nor was Maradona who I am sure everybody will remember had to use a 'hand' when challenging for the ball in the air. Of course what all three have/had in abundance is skill and strength. What Assulin lacks is strength but if as you suggest he addresses that he could be an asset. At least having had Assulin on loan Poyet is in a position to properly evaluate him.

  You guys have nailed it. Agree entirely and would love us to give him a deal to strengthen our squad."
