DumbleDelia is Magic 0 Posted January 20, 2005 I''d say c**p. Worthy has stated he wants youth here not ageing players who were once good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nolegs 0 Posted January 20, 2005 Djorkaeff released due to a knackered hamstring....so he could fit in well at Carrow rd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Essexiled Canary 0 Posted January 20, 2005 My understanding was that Worthy ruled out any ''older'' signings!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3pmkickoff 0 Posted January 20, 2005 Jeez, some people really aren''t clued up. Petit doesn''t even play for Arsenal anymore, he''s just been training with them to maintain fitness. Personally I''d love to see someone with his experience and quality till the end of the season, he wouldn''t even take up a loan spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bird Table 0 Posted January 20, 2005 Didn''t Arsenal sell Petit, ooh about 6 years ago!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ashleyla69 ashleyla69 0 Posted January 20, 2005 yeah i remember him not wanting older players then we go charlton,helveg and johnson!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DumbleDelia is Magic 0 Posted January 20, 2005 [quote]Didn''t Arsenal sell Petit, ooh about 6 years ago!?[/quote]Indeed they did Marmite. But ncfc4prem is right; he is back there training. He was out of contract (well still is) and Wenger offered to take him on a non-contract basis to improve his fitness and try to find a new club Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ncfc4eva 0 Posted January 20, 2005 i dont think age is a problem if its a loan untill the end of the season! we bloody need someone quick whoeva it is! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Worthy said he was looking for youth and Djorkaeff is hardly that!! Petit''s the same and even if he was to come (which he isn''t if he has retired) he would probably disrupt and ruin whatever little team spirit is left in the norwich team. Personally, i think Djorkaeff is past his sell-by date now, but thats just my own opinion, make of it what u will. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
