I know, I know. "Sack Wenger, he's the devil!" Honestly who could we sign instead of him? It's the lack of players that made us lose today, not him. And yes I know "He hasn't signed anyone, he's the devil!" You need to understand, when a team with limited funding like Arsenal (instead of City or Chelsea) need to take time to provide a good offer that will benefit both teams. We could spend 50 mil on Jagielka and Bains and get them right away, but I'd rather not blow all our money carelessly away. So I sat and pondered about the possible new signings that could save the club. Here is what I came up with. We need to sign 4 new players. Hazard, Baines, Jagielka/Cahill/Alex and Kaká! Szczęsny Sagna Vermaelen Cahill Bains Kaká Wilshere Hazard Walcott v.Persie Gervinho I think this would bring Arsenal back to life and it's very possible with almost 90 mil on Wengers desk right now for transfers. What do you guys think?
arsenal need to retain the youngster to save themselves.... arsenal have turned out to be a feeder club as their are being taken away by other big clubs. .. as long as they are able to keep hold of their rising stars... they should do well....

And that, my friend, is Wengers fault. He is ultimately responsible for recruitment and rubber stamping all signings. If he's signing players who repeatedly get injured, that's his fault, or at least the fault of the medical and scouting departemmts which he runs for signing injury-prone players. For me, there's an issue, as Arsenal seem to pick up an awful lot of injuries, not just in games, but in training as well. What exactly are they feeding them? What's more, their forecasts are woeful. They announce a player is out for a month, and 8 weeks later, they're still injured. Why? Why are Arsenals players taking so long to regain fitness? Is he kicking them in the dead of night or something? Arsenal do not have limited funding or at least they shouldn't have, and this myth needs to be addressed. They post the biggest profiotys in the Premier League, Man Utd apart. They have a ground which prints it's own money, and their wage structure is such that they do not spend heavily on wages; not in compsarison to their peers. Arsenal, theoretically, should be rolling in it, mate. The issue is not Arsenals money, or lack thereof. It's their reluctance to spend it. Theyre hoarders, determined to hold on to everything they have for as long as they can. They want everyone else to come down to their level of spending, rarher than take their millions and spend it as every one else does. As a share-holder, Wenger must be a dream. The dividend payouts at Arsenal must be mountainous every year with the money he retains.
I dreAd to think whats going to happen to Arsenal. Got a fuuny feeling van persie and wilshere will want to move next summer to clubs maybe abit more ambitious in winning trophies.. wengers completely ditched his youth policy now.. at the end of the day in my eyes. arteta is a poor mans fabregas and youssi is a poor mans nasri metersacker a gd signing tho www.goaladviser.net
it's still early days, remember that. Wenger might well be right in his signings. There's nothing Arsenal can do now until at least January except get behind the team. Arteta's looking good. Still need Wilshere back but all Arsenal fans I know are pretty optimistic.
I don't think Wenger or his policies are to blame. You've got a fight for control on the board with the Russian guy and the American having a fair financial stake. I think Wenger's inability to sign starts with the money being tied up there and may be compounded by the costs of the Emirates. Maybe Arsenal haven't been very transparent about that.
This is why the pressure on Wenger is even greater. Economically speaking we are on a course of doom. It will be hard to get out of debt if we keep paying players CL money and don't make it to the top four. Sure Liverpool took a hit in form, same with Newcastle, but Arsenal have investors that honestly do not seem to care about the club's rich history. Arsenals recent history, mostly shaped by Wenger, will hopefully attract better players even in the worst case scenario. I'm staying positive that we will get through this. We can always watch replays of Bergkamp and the days Henry if it really gets that bad. I trust that Wenger will fortify the team with some experienced defenders in the summer.
Not a bad call with Kaka, if he wants to go to England. Is he in the starting XI for Real Madrid yet? It's a shame to see him on the bench.
