Debuchy disappointed not to seal United switch

Mathieu Debuchy says he’s annoyed with Arsene Wenger for the way his season has panned out and confirmed that the manager blocked a deadline day approach from Manchester United.

The France international was a surprise last minute target for Louis van Gaal’s side – an opportunity the 30-year-old says would have been ‘magnificent – before he sealed a return to France with Ligue 1 side Bordeaux.

“Yes, at the end of the transfer window they came in,” Debuchy told Canal Plus. 

“They [Manchester United] contacted my agents. I was disappointed, obviously. If I had the chance to go to Manchester United it would have been magnificent.

“Unfortunately it wasn’t the case. I discussed it with the coach too, who said that obviously he couldn’t help out a rival.

“I’m a little bit annoyed by him [Wenger]. It’s his choice. I came back well this summer, I had a good preseason.

“I was able to talk to him to know my future at Arsenal. He said that I would have game time and that we would discuss it in December. Unfortunately, I didn’t have this game time.”

It’s almost certain that Debuchy will be offloaded on a permanent basis when the summer transfer window opens. And probably at a substantial loss.

It’s a real shame he’s decided to continue mouthing off about his circumstances. Quite frankly, it reeks of sour grapes from a guy who looked decidedly dodgy every time he played in the first team since returning from the second of two long-term injuries.

Until now I was giving him benefit of doubt. I actually liked him as a player. But this is a completely unprofessional statement. He’s deluded if he ever thought for a moment that we’ll send him to a rival.

I’m glad he’s no longer a part of the squad because his contribution, if any would only be negative. I wish we would have loaned him out to villa where he could see his teammates win the league whilst he got relegated.

Eternal Titi Berg Pat Nostalgia

But Wenger sold RVP to Man U and allowed Ca$hley to go to Chelsea. Our hero of the day used to play for them too. I do not think Man U would have won the league because of Debuchy but they did because of RVP and so-called gentlemen agreement between Ferguson and Wenger. Just telling the truth but Debuchy ought to shut up now.

Chris O.

Such old, out-of tune violins to keep playing. In neither case did Wenger want to, but he had no leverage contractually and his hand was forced. For example, his only other option with RVP was to sell him for 17m less to Juventus or City, which was no alternative at all.

Here, where he had leverage, he used it.

Anyway, I’m disappointed in Debuchy, initially a good signing and player to whom some bad things happened but who, rather than getting on with it, has loudly made the worst of it. Good riddance.

sambo

You speak fact, eternal titi talks a story he basically made up pretending to be in Wengers head. I am tired of this comment section down voting on point comments. Wenger sold RVP to United. He didn’t have to. 17 mil would have been just fine for us if we didn’t want to strengthen a rival. But 10 million is worth more than the league is basically what it implies. Down vote away but selling RVP to united was a mistake.

Andy Mack

Sambo, seeing as £7m is such a small amount of money, can you please lend me £1m.
Please, pretty please…

Julio Baptista's humble alter ego

Same here. Till this morning I was giving him the benefit of the doubt, but he’s just proven himself to be a disgusting wanker. After a statement like that, I’d never want him pulling on the Arsenal jersey ever again. He can go feck right off

DE Gooner

How is it that Chelsea gets bags of money for cast offs but we are expected to take a loss on this MD? Can we sell him to China? We should get 20 Million for him considering the stupid money coming out of China for questionable ‘top’ talent.

Seeing Sounds

Good idea! Off to China, Debuchy!

Mathieu Debacle isn’t Flamini?

GeneWildersCrazyDNA

He’d have been second choice to Darmian, just the same as being behind Bellerin here. Wenger knew this. Why allow your back up RB to be a back up at a rival, thus strengthening them and putting us in their predicament? You wouldn’t. Had Darmian got injured before Deadline Day, then fair enough. But he didn’t.

De-boo-hoo-chy

TommyGun

What a cretin. Not only has he bitched and whined whilst at Arsenal, he has basically just told Bordeaux that he would rather be somewhere else. Such a poor attitude – it is a good thing that he is nowhere near our dressing room at the moment.

Wanda

With this attitude, he won’t even make that France squad he keeps talking about.

Arsenalista

He should have just shut up when he got his move, What a waster. I for one am glad he is gone, he would have been a disruptive influence in the dressing room.
His comments don’t do him any favours and it makes him seem like a bitch who wouldn’t fight for his place and instead disrespected the greatest French manager of all time.
Debuchy my good man, you are an arsehole……….good riddance.

IamaGoober

I am so happy this guy has gone. So many people thumbed down my comments previously when I had called out his attitude towards Arsenal, but I 100% stand by what I previously said. The guy is deluded, he cant admit that his Arsenal career being a total disaster is down to his own performances. Nothing is Arsene’s fault in this situation. Arsene had to play him in games that had no real relevance because he was just too much of a liability to get a start over Bellerin in matches of genuine importance. He has truly woeful this season,… Read more »

Peepdog

LOSER!!!!! In my books too. A spineless athlete with no competive sugar in his veins. Not at the mighty Arsenal, thanks. Good point on his comments regarding Man U and the attitude that shows Bordeaux. Im not a fan of de b1tchy

DanP

Poisonous chippy little turd – good riddance

TheArseAndAll

Everytime he comes out and says something I need to switch out for an even smaller violin. I hope he’s finished because I can’t find any smaller! ?

RedCurrant

Need something smaller? Have you tried looking in Debuchy’s shorts?

Ew, I just wrote that…

Xxxrob

I really really liked this guy when we signed him. He was our Sagna like for like almost.
This behaviour tells me he is nothing like Sagna.
What a whiny bitch, get rid

Jimbo Jones

What an absolute tit this guy is! Zero awareness of the bigger picture outside of his own desperation to play in the euros. Quite disrespectful to Arsenal, who he is lucky granted him a loan, and Bordeaux, who have given him a chance whilst 4weeks he is already basically saying I wish I was at another club! Really hope he doesn’t come back to Arsenal

Jimbo Jones

Fellow Gooners,

I’m launching a petition on change.org for that little tosser Debuchy to relinquish his no2 squad number to young Hector at a ceremony where the De’Buchbag gets down on his knees and kisses Bellerins Pegasus like feet. Anyone in? (also please tell me he doesn’t get a medal if we win the league this season!)

eddymc2

Can we NOW turn on him? His gripes are largely understandable, but to want to move to them from us, I don’t know.

eddymc2

Plus he’s obviously not getting into the France squad so he’s just laying the blame early. Git.

racosin

Maybe a little boy in him wanted to play for ManU….Little Boy part 2 starring the french bloke.

aberinkula

Dear Matthieu,

Kindly fuck off, mate.

All the best,

Arsenal fans fed up with your moaning, whining and complaining. How did we get lumped with this crybaby? God damn I love Hector Bellerin though.

AR16

Well it was either him or Aurier, and that hasn’t panned out too well for PSG.

Eternal Titi Berg Pat Nostalgia

Aurier is a very good player for PSG. Now, what he was caught saying about Blanc is much better than what Blanc himself was caught few years ago saying about blocking young blacks from academy to limit their presence in national team. Aurier got punished for talking trash. Did Blanc get any punishment ?

kaius

Excellent point. Not into the Blanc-PSG hypocrisy. As if you don’t have loudmouth Zlatan on your team. But of course they’ll milk it for all it’s worth.

We really should have bought Aurier then, and we should still try, because teams like Chelsea, City, or Barca (who bought a banned Suarez remember) will all try it and they couldn’t care less about his comments.

Jamie

“Kindly fuck off, mate”

I think he wants to, but Arsene won’t let him.

aberinkula

Bollocks to him. You don’t hear Kieran Gibbs moaning about losing his place (to the best left back in the country). You don’t hear Joel Campbell making noises now that Alexis is back.

evertsen

and Chezzer lauds Cech, says not buying him would be stupid of Wenger

Spaceman

Thought fans were being way too harsh on Debuchy… until I read this. What a muppet

london

Glad to see he cares so much about his parent club.
Someone ought to remind him that he is still contracted to Arsenal.

Arsenalista

Can we fine this feckin plank, after all he is our employee.

Cechmate

This whole Debuchy thing is getting stupid now. He has gotten what he wanted, can’t he just shut up and do the job he is paid to do.

ClockEndRider

“Its not my fault, everyone else is sh*t and the manager doesn’t love me and i couldn’t settle in London and it rains a lot and the food is bad and I’m only on 50 grand a week and its its not fair…,”.
Fuck me, Violet Elizabeth Bott lives in the form of Matthieu Debuchy……

Mo

Pardon my language but what a tosser! Just a reminder to fans that some players really don’t love the club, they are in it for the money.

alex

Fella, you had game time, you were just awful and it was a risk to give you more

Last of The Country Gentlemen

Like all those moany ex-colleagues who keep whining even after they’ve left, and wonders why nobody will go for drinks with them.

Me So Hornsey

What would have been so ‘magnificent’ about battling for 5th place and helping LVG break every losing record in sight for ManU?

We should have loaned him to Villa. I think with his attitude, after seeing their disgraceful display yesterday, it would have been a quite perfect fit.

Andy Mack

If they’d been really interested in him then they wouldn’t have left contacting him until the last day…

Serendipity

Given how Wenger likes to check out the personality of a player, I wonder how he missed this about Debuchy.

Mark Hughes

When he was the big fish at Newcastle, this probably didn’t crop up, it’s when he’s had to battle for his position that he’s shown his petulance, lack of fight and team spirit and his selfishness.

Andy Mack

Personalities change depending on lots of issues (if you’re married with kids and a mortgage then you’ll understand how much you’ve changed).
In this case the possibility of playing a major championship in his own country seems to have turned him into a twat.

Beagleboy

Woah, Debuchy really IS unaware how he riles up people with his statements. Small wonder he didn’t make the cut in the team. Now he will be even dismissed by supporters who otherwise may have wished him well.

H

Can we send him back to Newcastle and see how he enjoys that?

Serendipity

On second thoughts, sending Debuchy to Man Utd wouldn’t exactly be helping out a rival given his form and mental state.

Quick

And their form.

Adewale

does he expect arsenal to bail out a rival club?farewell debucry

Alexstratz

What a whore.

Bosscielny

Good riddance

Michael

Who’s that guy? I know Hector Bellerin & Carl Jenkinson.

ALexis PACINO

I’m just guted because “pass debuchy on the left handside” was the best nickname ever!
Now I will never see it written ever again. Screw you Debuchy!

Beagleboy

Meaning you lay off the weed? 😉

allan ian

so glad he was shipped out. Wenger should offload him to the Chinese league. we might get a decent transfer fee for him

InTheArse

What a cunt

Big Rob

C&@t

Heroldg

Wow was actually feeling sorry for the guy but this makes him useless in my eyes and society’s.

Arsetronomy

Lol time to work Debuchy! STFU and get ready to play if we need you, you twat.

the stoat

Can’t be bothered with his bullshit,fuck off and good riddance

David C

“If I had the chance to go to Manchester United it would have been magnificent.”

and that is why you are not worthy of our beloved Arsenal. Debuchy, you are too soft physically and mentally.

Adieu Mathieu.

AP

He has tried to put his needs above the teams countless times. A professional would understand Arsenes relectuance to loan to a rivial instead of being a whinge piglet.

Beyond all that, Bellerin is just better. The end.

Mark

Certainly hope he is sold this Summer (and that we don’t take too big of a loss on him).

Badaab

He’s gone in the summer… perhaps we should only entertain offers from China?

Thisgoesupto11

But that might mean he rakes it in and never perceives his true reflection in the mirror. Perhaps we can only entertain offers from China, with the proviso they immediately fine him 2 weeks wages and place him in their under-18 team, fm style!

AllGunsABlazin

I’m tired of him now.

Fuck you, and fuck off.

Two footed flamstamp

Well done mate. I thought I had finally made peace with his nagging and thought he had a point about game time issue. Now he just proved that he is just a whiny little cunt who doesn’t know when to shut up. He is still under contract with us and is still mouthing us off even when all was done and dusted.

Stillmatic

Like others, I felt sorry for him till this comment.

Maybe we should’ve sent him back to Newcastle for a relegation scrap, just to remind him where he came from and why he was lucky to be in our squad to begin with.

ciderman

There is a saying “you are what you eat” – debuchy obviously loves eating snails the slow coach!!!!

Penfield

Obviously Debuchy loves to eat pussy

Geefive

Done with this whiny ass cunt. I don’t care if he’s still on Arsenals books. Now that he’s got his “regular gametime” I hope someone takes his fucking legs off.

Martin Finley

Debuchy seems like a whiney biatch, But I must say Atsene Wenger also come across as fairly hypocritical when he claims he cant help out a rival. The list of players he supplied to rivals is probably longer than that of any other manager. Even the guy Debuchy was brought in to replace went to Man City. Hehe Wenger is entitled to refuse a player a potential move, But dont make yourself look like a fool saying you cant help out a rival with your history of doing exactly that. Hell, they arent even our rival anymore but fighting for… Read more »

Arsepedant

Fuck, I meant to thumb that down.

He's the soup

This team up north is too cold, he whimpered.
This team down south is too warm, he cried.
This team in the midlands is just right.

When he awoke he was attacked by three bears who were fed up of tossers like him.

The End

@David is Adieu Mathieu is being friendly. please someone should borrow me another to ……..

O2ba

Shouldve put a few shifts in when he had the chance.

Rodriguino

Truth is he wouldn’t have walked into the United 11, and that’s a problem if he wants to make the France squad. Wish it could’ve worked out because I thought he brought some steel to the squad.

CJ

Bordeaux have lost 3 of the 4 games he has played too. Thank god for Hector.

Monkey Nuts

Could have loaned him to Salford City

ciderman

Doubt he would make the first 11 let alone the squad

Beezus Fuffoon

The guy is deluded! He didn’t play at all well this season. He was very unlucky with injuries, but JESUS, the dream is fucking over, Mathieu! Focus on doing a job for a club. That’s all that’s left for you now, sad but true!

Merlin's Panini

God, this boy just can’t shut up can he?
So disrespectful to his current club moaning that he didn’t get what he wanted. Did he really think we might have let him go to United? No chance.
My heart bleeds for him…

Indiegooner

Around the time we signed him, I remember a post by a Newcastle fan somewhere(football365??) on Internet.

The guy basically said good riddance – Not that he was critical of Debuchy as a player but he specifically called him a coward and bad influence on the team. Now I see where that came from.

Anthony

Well, I for one am glad he isn’t occupying a space on the bench, bringing his bad attitude with him.

Yes his playing time was restricted, though I can’t say with that when he did feature this season that he looked at all convincing.

I’d much rather have Chambers as the back up option to Bellerin, he actually seems to want to play for Arsenal and, for me, looks like he will have a bright future.

Goodbye Debuchy, I feel you have basically made any Arsenal future untenable.

innovstar

Collect your 30 pieces and your boots on the way out! We have no time for useless mouth in our team.

Jack4343

Well, he’s finally reached the rarified pinnacle of being booed every time he enters our pitch and touches the ball while on an opposing team. Feck off mate, you miserable little twat you.

carlosgooner

Whoop’s !!!! I think you’ve just pissed on your chips there fella !!!!!!

Little Mozart

After this report, I’m glad he’s moved on. I just hope he plays out of his skin for Bordeaux so they offer us a substantial a sum in the summer. Gotta pay for Messi some how, right?
