For the
Arsenal fans who are still firmly behind Arsene Wenger and believe that the long serving Frenchman is still the best man to be the manager of
Arsenal Football Club, this will
come as good news.
Coming up against
Arsenal, it would be a no brainer to see the visitors have large spells of possession and nullify whatever little threat the home side may pose; but Johnson, playing
as the Right - Winger, could initiate counterattacks with his deceptive pace and has the ability to deliver that final ball for the likes of Steven Fletcher and Conor Wickham — who could start upfront for the Black Cats against
Arsenal, to finish off a goal scoring chance.
There is a strong feeling that the England international midfield star Jack Wilshere is going to rescue his
Arsenal career and
come back to be a first team regular again,
as long
as this season on loan at AFC Bournemouth sees him play the regular football that all of his injury problems have denied him at his boyhood club, the mighty
Arsenal.
Come on Gooners, in all wengers time

I do hope that Arsene Wenger has a fantastic ace up his sleeve when it
comes to getting a new striker for
Arsenal fans to cheer about in the current summer transfer window, but I must admit to living more in hope than expectation and
as the days and weeks tick by my concern increases that it will be the same old story for us.
While there have been plenty of former
Arsenal players, including the TV pundits Paul Merson and Thierry Henry,
as well
as every man and his dog with an opinion about Arsene Wenger and
Arsenal, ready to jump on the bosses back and bemoan his failure or refusal to use the summer transfer window to sign another striker, there are a few that have
come out in support of the under fire Frenchman.
the team nurtures players in the expense of trophies, we don't upgrade coz it will hinder development of so and so... we don't buy finished articles and keep waiting for the ones we have to
come good, that's why other teams win trophies and
Arsenal is seen
as an academy.
Lacazette won't have joined
Arsenal to be an impact player off the bench, but
as BBC Sport note,
Arsenal have just spent # 56m on Aubameyang who
comes with a prolific record from his stint with Borussia Dortmund.
what ever you say about wenger
as arsenal manager, he still has the football words of wisdom in general, you do nt hear many other managers
come out with such inspiring words to the footballing world, to see that the game
as a whole is what we unite to support.
Its seems to me that both the club and it's fans are not serious.Anytime
Arsenal sign a youngster from another team who is dubbed the next whatever people
come out and say
Arsenal have just signed a youngster who may or may not make it and that Arsene should sign ready made.They say it to seem
as if it's a bad thing.Now that Chris Willock is leaving I'm anticipating that a lot of people are soon going to be blaming the same Wenger who actually likes bringing in youngsters.Anyway you have to look at the reasons he lfet.It's for game time and to him he thinks its a good choice.The bright side is that he's not
Arsenal's most talented player.The likes of Donyell Malen, Yassin Fortune, Reiss Nelson in my eyes have more potential
as wingers.I also think
Arsenal should be very excited about Eddie Nketiah and Stephy Mavididi.They can be world class strikers in the future particularly Eddie.
Ozil is no doubt a special talent, but has
come under scrutiny for a number of lazy displays, and many pundits and fans alike believe he lacks the mentality to play for
Arsenal any longer, with his inclusion described
as a luxury.
Let me remind you Arsene Wenger is still the same he hasn't changed people, so stop making these silly lists of players
Arsenal must sign because none of them are
coming, there's zero chance of Higuain, Aubameyang, Reus or whoever else being signed by
Arsenal as long
as Wenger's still the manager!
To be real champions and not strong contenders,
arsenal would have to see each team it
comes across
as a treat.
Nothing you could ever do to Giroud would ever make him
come good just nothing.Its not a formation set up that gets a player to dribble, score, be world class, be dependable, wow the crowd and the like.Its the players» own ability that makes him do that.Once you don't have it ya ain't gat it brother.Read my lips!!!!! Once ya don't have it ya ain't gat it.
As simple
as ABC.So I expect this to be another de ja vu case and waste of time if Giroud and Alexis are paired.I'm even shocked it's
coming from Henry.He should rather be giving us more reasons why we need a new striker and why we would fail if we don't get the new striker.Forget Giroud's stats for a moment and judge him by how he plays when you are watching him.You would realize that given the same chances at
Arsenal strikers who are not even world class can do better.I want a new striker even if not world class and to be honest its not necessarily a world class striker that wins you a league but just increases the chances of winning it.Peace!!!!
Arsenal could certainly do with upgrades in midfield at the moment, and Rafinha still has time to prove himself capable of being the player Barcelona thought he would be when he
came through
as a highly - rated youngster.
Arsenal will likely need to move quick if they do wish to follow up with their interest,
as Raiola will not mess around when it
comes to drumming up further interest in his young talent.
I am pissed - off that other teams even clubs like Spurs see the players that they want and immediately pounce on them like a tramp on chips, but when it
comes to
Arsenal we make appointments weeks and months into the future... I ask myself, what can I do
as a fan of my beloved
Arsenal, and what can we (
Arsenal fans all over the world) do
as supporters to show our outrage and indignation of the status - quo at
Arsenal when it
comes to transfers.
Arsene Wenger was never going to
come out and say that
Arsenal are out of the Champions League,
as we still have the second leg against Barcelona at the Nou Camp to play in a couple of weeks.
sounds about right, one
comes back from injury and another one takes his place
as it always is with
arsenal.
Defence; Knowing
Arsenal we shall not buy any defenders especially with Calum Chambers
coming back from loan and we play 3 at the back
as well.
«I can't rate Jack enough
as a footballer,
as a person, how he has
come into the team and what he has delivered for us, but there has been no discussion with
Arsenal.
No compassion
Arsenal is run
as a business on others aspects except when it
comes to find a winning manger and proper team!
Obviously Piers has a lot of high up contacts, at
Arsenal as well
as in the media, so if he believes what he has been told then we must assume it
came from a reliable source, but I'm not sure that I understand why he is so upset.
With the likes of Hector Bellerin, Isaac Hayden and Semi Ajayi already knocking on the door of the
Arsenal first team defence,
as well
as some excellent midfield and attacking options like Chuba Akpom, Benik Afobe, Gedion Zelalem, Daniel Crowley
coming through, Jonkers and his colleague have a great chance of taking the academy on to the next level
as the former head Liam Brady challenged them to do.
There is nothing left for us to do but start cheering the Gunners
as soon
as they
come out on the pitch and all the way to the end, when Tottenham's unbeaten run is left in tatters, and the
ARSENAL are top of the League!
Frustrated doesn't
come close... Called out wenger 5 years ago
as not having the ability to deliver top honours for
arsenal... Yet he is still around explaining away his own basic failings with his existential corporate bs... Fake manager kept going by fake fans content with 4th place.
O ye of little faith.Just trust me on this one.How many times have owners / presidents
come out to say players won't be sold bla bla bla.What he said is just for formality sake.Have you forgotten what Aulas said about Lacazette?Listen Thomas Lemar has his heart completely set on a move to
Arsenal.What has even made him firm and influenced his decision the more is the fact that are lot of Monaco players have left and likely more will be leaving.The guy just doesn't want to stay and will likely be an
Arsenal player in the
coming days.One thing slowing down the deal is Monaco want to be assured they can replace him.The deal is basically a done deal.
As I said insider sources are twice
as fast
as the media.So whether the vice p. likes it or not he'll become an
Arsenal player.Mark my words.
Ever since Jamie Vardy turned down
Arsenal's offer to
come to th Emirates, the Gunners fans have been hearing thousands of
Arsenal transfer rumours linking us with every available striker in the world, and now it feels like we have been kicked in the teeth by Wenger
as he confirms that the one rumour that was definitely true was the chase for Takuma Asano from Hiroshima.
One of the most sensible comments i have read here, Wenger is hiding from the fans and can't face the fans... Almost every manager has a very good relationship with there fans but not at
Arsenal... He will always blame the fans and not himself for poor performances, as for me i have accepted my fate, 2 more years of Agony and unhappiness watching my beloved club but i know Kroenke, Wenger, Gazidis will not be at arsenal forever because like it or not someone will come and save the club from there hands in the NEAREST future and gues
