Wow I think this is the most blasting comments on
Wenger than the previous season.
Not exact matches
has
wenger bought injury - proof bodies for the players???... i have to agree that we have a stronger squad
than in the
previous seasons but its no better
than the other top teams... up to now i still can't get why we had to leave our home and move to the emirates except maybe for the ridiculous ticket prices... the stadium should start paying us back by now
Wenger's indecisiveness in transfer markets from
previous seasons also ended up with us signing less
than enough players often, or doing last minute signings.
In the midfield, (including RWB & LWB) we have a whole bunch of tweeners... none offer the full package, none make sense in our manager's current favourite formation, except for Sead on the left and Ox on the right, and all of them have never shown any consistency for more
than a heartbeat... Sead, who I'm including in this category because of our present formation, looks like a positive addition, minus his occasional brain farts, but I would rather see what he could do in a back 4 before making my mind up... Ox, who has never played better, which isn't saying much considering his largely underwhelming play in
previous seasons, seems to have found a home in this new formation; unfortunately, can we really expect this oft - injured player to handle the taxing duties that come with said position over the long haul, not to mention, it looks like he has no intention of staying... Ramsey has relied on the empathy that stems from his gruesome injury years ago and the excitement that was generated a few years back when he finally seemed to put in altogether, but on the whole he has been a big disappointment (neither he nor the Ox have scored enough to warrant a regular spot)... Wiltshire should be put on a weekly contract then played until he suffers his first injury, if and when that occurs he should be shipped - out and no one should very be allowed to say his name on club grounds ever again... Elnehy & Coq are average players who couldn't make any of the top 7 teams currently in the EPL... both have showed some great energy on the pitch, but neither are top quality and no good team can afford to have that many average players on their bench playing the same position, especially with Coq's injury history / discipline concerns and Elheny's headless chicken tendencies... as for Xhaka, his tenure here so far has been incredibly underwhelming... we know he has some skills to provide the long ball but his defensive work is piss poor and he gives the ball away too cheaply and far too often... finally, the enigma himself, Ozil, so much skill with his left foot but his presence has been more frustrating
than uplifting... in many respects his failure has been directly related to the failure of this club to provide him with the necessary players up front, minus Sanchez of course, and unless something drastic happens very soon his legacy will be largely a negative one (much like
Wenger's)
Despite the acquisition of three world class players in recent years, and
Wenger keeping hold of his stars, we have gained less points
than the
previous three
seasons, and have had the same amount of defeats (7).
Also I haven't seen figures on Leicesters spending in 2015 buy my guess is that it was quite a bit higher
than previous seasons give the number of players they brought in... some at bargain rates with hindsight...
Wenger should be investing relative to clubs position as 7th richest club on planet and competing for top european honour..
Despite spending absolute fortunes in the last transfer window, Arsenal have performed much worse this
season than in any
previous season under Arsene
Wenger.
Just look at how Gazidis spent less
than 1/3 of the
previous season in Gazidis 1st full
season as CEO, how Nasri spoke out to the media about how the board sold him after
Wenger had said he was staying, how RvP spoke out against the board in his transfer...
Giroud isn't worried about Lucas perez because he probably knows that
Wenger will be playing Lucas on the wing, more often
than not, since he is officially an attacking midfielder And when you add that to
Wenger's
previous statements of Sanchez being moved into the strikers position for this
season, aswell as keeping Walcott in that role too, it brings sense to Giroud's comments.
Arsenal manager Arsene
Wenger was also hopeful that he would have his star midfielder available for selection more
than previous seasons.
