Cup best chance of silverware - Win UCL long reach but beating Bayern could spur the team and maybe make them believe coupled with playing any team except Barca, Real & Atletico in the round after and could we do a Chelsea 2012.

Picture this, we don't come out of the gate firing on all cylinders, Wenger speaks of how there wasn't enough time for the first - teamers to build chemistry, several key players aren't even playing because of Wenger's utterly ridiculous policy regarding players who played in the Confed
Cup or the under21s and the boo - birds have returned in full flight... if these things were to happen, which is quite possible considering the Groundhog Day mentality of this club, how long do you think it will take for Wenger to recant his earlier statements regarding Europa... I would suggest that it's these sorts of comments
from Wenger which are often his undoing... why would any manager worth his weight in salt make such a definitive statement before the season has even started... why would any manager who fashions himself an educated man make such pronouncements before even knowing what his starting 11 will be come Friday, let alone on September 1st... why would any manager who has a tenuous relationship with a great many supporters offer up such a potentially contentious talking point considering how many times his own words have come back to bite him in the ass... I think he does this because he doesn't care what you or I think, in fact he's more than slightly infuriated by the very idea of having to answer to the likes of you and me... that might have been acceptable during his formative years in charge, when the fans were rewarded with an scintillating brand of football and
success felt like a forgone conclusion, but this new Wenger led team barely resembles that team of ore... whereas in times past we relished a few words
from our seemingly cerebral manager, in recent times those words have been replaced by a myriad of excuses, a plethora of infuriating stories about who he could have signed but didn't and what can only be construed as outright fabrications... it's kind of funny that when we want some answers, like during the whole contract debacle of last season, we can't get an intelligent word out of him, but when we just what him to show his managerial acumen through his actions, we can't seem to get him to shut - up... I beg you to prove me wrong Arsene
This House of Cards created by the thin - skinned narcissist and our absentee landlord is going to come crashing down over the next 12 months and anyone who doesn't put the
success of the club ahead of blind allegiances will need to check themselves so that we can move forward once the dust has settled... this club has been on auto - pilot for far too long and the same old, same old just won't cut it in the new EPL where many of the best managers, players and deepest pockets in the world now reside... just think to yourself what has transpired in the last 7 years alone: Leicester City won the EPL, Chelsea and ManCity have changed several managers and still won the League on multiple occasions, ManU lost Fergie yet we still didn't take advantage, Liverpool has emerged
from their slumber and the Spurs are presently the better team in North London... if you find this acceptable, I feel for you and this future of this club... hope you all enjoy fighting with Everton and West Ham for the final Europa spot every year (aka the new Wenger
Cup)
