sign him permanently in the summer rather than on

signed him but that does not mean that he is not a top quality player.He could really be a good fit into our team.But I can guarantee you that
signing draxler alone next summer will not bring us the epl title.The squad needs strengthening in at least 2 - 3 positions to win the title in what could actually be wenger's farewell season.Going back to draxler though, without a doubt he will
only make the squad stronger but I just hope that he is one of the many players heading towards the emirates next season to help us win the title, regardless of where MESU - LEXIS are cum next august....

Nice article... I used to be one of those staunch Wenger fans through the years... I used to believe he is superior than Sir Alex, because with almost nothing to spend and playing with kids, he managed to keep us up there every year... I was really caught up with that half season wonder we used to show... In the summer 2013, him or the board (I don't recall) came out and said we are much stable financially and now we can fight with the biggest bullies, I got my hopes high, I thought we are definitely
signing a top striker and DM, that what we need... What happened,
only hours before the window closed we managed to
sign a top AMF (remember we have our best player for the season 2012 - 2013 was AMF, Cazorla if you remember), I was really depressed seen Giroud leading the line every match... then comes winter window, and we were right there top of the table... My friend send me a poster of an elephant on a tree, and on the bottom of it «no one knows how it got there but everybody knows how it will get down»... I told my friend that we are
only one decent striker far from the gold... and what happened, we
signed an old injured DM on
loan... That for me was a completely arrogance and stubbornness cost us the league title... There I completely lost the plot with Wenger... I wish yesterday I was with those who raised that banner... I would write in my banner «Enough talks and philosophy, we need results»
im not sure we should!what are the chances of the new players to hit the ground running and make an instant impact (they are humans and are going to need time to adapt to all the changes) with some luck we will have most of our injured players back by then all refreshed, rested yes i, ll say it like new
signings:) in my opinion i think wenger should
only go for a DM cover for le coq & should look at a
loan signing wrapped up in the first few days of the window transfer having learnt from the kallstrom, s saga!!!
