I certainly think that Arsene Wenger should think about taking the offer, especially if he is definitely keeping Giroud and planning not to allow Alexis Sanchez to leave and I think it could be a good move for the speedy but inconsistent player as well because he may not be in for a lot of first team action in the coming months.

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 whereas in times past we relished a few words from our seemingly cerebral manager, in recent times those words have been replaced by a myriad of excuses, a plethora of infuriating stories about who he could have signed but didn't and what can only be construed as outright fabrications...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

I'm not defending his sulking but trust me if Gerrard, Suarez, Messi and Ronaldo were here they'll all be left frustrated.They will have to encourage the Arsenal players more than hundred times in one match.The big question remains if our players ever listen?I've seen many matches where Sanchez has urged and encourage our players to show more fight.He's done this a lot through his actions and words too.I'm remember when he came here and was tracking back, showing fight to win the ball and all that it made many of our players copy the same thing.We even confessed that Sanchez is having a positive impact in our team due to his efforts.Now becausehe wants to leavexpeople are speaking only about his negative side.I remember many people here saying they wouldn't bother and be angry if Sanchez wants to leave because our players show no fight.Didn't we say this here?Peopleare not giving him the credit he deserves.
