We might have seen Hodgson use Vardy as he has been

«It will be hard for a
club owned by 150,000 members to either keep this ownership model, or
if it keeps it, to continue competing
at the very top
level,» says Victor Font, CEO of Delta Partners, a global telecom advisory and investment firm, who is considered one possible successor to Bartomeu in 2021.
It would make sense for the German to have it on his back
at club level as well and it is not as
if Wilshere has had that number throughout his Arsenal career, as it was previously held by the traitor Robin van Persie.
A lot of fans, past players and even pundits are asking for us to sign Benzema and
if we do that would be a big F**K YOU to either Theo or his agent, whoever was holding the
club at ransom for a pay raise and back to the wings you go... Get a feeling now seeing Pedro going to Chelsea whom has won everything there is to win and to me is on a different
level than Theo could have been ours
if 1) Walcott wasn't homegrown to make up that number and 2) to prevent him from going to a rival.
If fans will not boycott the games and stop paying for the tickets then let us at least unite and tell Silent Stan that the CEO is not making him the money that he could, if Silent Stan starts to see Gazidis as a loss to profit then maybe we can get an ambitious CEO in who will help us be ambitious and win titles, use that then to get better business done and add to the value of the clubs assets (players), remove the lowest value players (not good enough for AFC) and replace them with high value assets which will increase in value when we are winning / truly competing at the highest leve

Guidetti has long been touted as a potential star of the future and,
if he is now over the injuries that have curtailed his progress, he has the talent to light up next summer's tournament and also launch his career
at club level.
Mertesacker has already retired from international duty to focus on his
club career and so he can not now afford to also be on the sidelines
at Arsenal
if he wants to keep playing
at the top
level for as long as he can.
I for one think he needs to be loan out because I believe he will improve faster
if he have the chance to play regularly
at CB
at other lower
level clubs but I do nt think this will happen
if he were to stay
at Arsenal this season.
The thing is and I'm by no means bashing Wenger but
if he really wants to win the league let alone the champions league then he would tell Gazidis to get «X» or «Y» player
at all cost that will take the
club to that
level almost instantly.
Regardless of what he said his intention is not to enable the
club to compete
at the higher
levels as he takes cash from the
club but adds nothing by way of real investment, He's NOT the only culprit though the rest of the baord are as complicate in this as Silent stan The idea that the author is prpomoting is a great idea
if there was any cohesion between the fans groups and someone who had enough capitol to back it up into some action, sadly we live in a world where 80 % of the worlds wealth is controlled by 20 % of the worlds population and silent stan is one of those 20 % he ai nt going anywhere any time soon and thats the sad fact.
And
if he does, what on earth does that mean for the prospects
at club and international
level of Luke Shaw after his latest row with Jose Mourinho?
These young guns will only get a chance to prove themselves
at top
level if and only
if arsenal make massive signings that will give us a major trophy...
if we are for example leading the league in like seven points in February, then we can afford to give them some minutes on field but they wont get game time on the current team cz the manager realizes that the
club needs trophies and hez running out of time so i even doubt he will use them in capital one cup... Good luck boys
nice to see you crawl out of your hole just in time to offer your 2 cents worth once again... unlike yourself I started following this team long before Wenger arrived on the scene and will continue to do so long after he's gone... in his earlier years I admired the cerebral elements he brought to the EPL, which
at that point was more brutish than beautiful, and I respected the seemingly tireless efforts of Arsene, Dein & staff to uncover and develop talent without sacrificing the product on the field... likewise I appreciated that such a youthful manager wasn't afraid to bring strong personalities and / or world - class players into the fold without being fearful of how said players would potentially undermine and / or dilute his authority... unfortunately this all changed about 10 years ago and culminated in the removal of all our greatest players, both young and old, without any real replacements coming in... from Henry to RVP to Fabergas and Nasri, it was easy to see that this
club was no longer interested in competing
at the highest
levels... instead of being honest, minus the ridiculous claims regarding the new stadium, Wenger chose to side with management and in doing so became the «front man» for this corporation pretending to be a world - class soccer
club... without the «front man» this organization would have been exposed numerous years earlier, so his presence was imperative
if the facade was to continue... it's for this reason and more that I despise what this once great man and Kroenke has done to my beloved
club... the gutless, shameful and manipulative way they have treated the fans, like myself, is largely indefensible and this is why I felt it necessary to start offering my opinion in a public format... trust me, I resisted the temptation for many years but as long as the same shit continues to exist I will voice my opinions and
if you don't like it maybe you should look for a different team to pretend to follow
However when it comes to Arsene Wenger's transfer policy, Ozil has never been afraid to suggest that new top quality additions are needed
at the
club if we want to challenge
at the highest
level.
sorry this is a bit of the subject does anyone know what the situation with our overall debt is
at the moment and what our repayments are i was under the impression that we are
at about the # 245 million mark gross debt and about # 97 net debt are the stadium repayments lower now or something is the bonds interest dropped lower inprice we were paying something like # 20 - # 30 million in repayments but heard its down to about # 15 million per yr now i know we will have broken throught the # 300 million mark in revenue now i am guessing that contributes more to the transfer funds or
if not what makes up the transfer funds in the
club i.e deals or match day revenue plus cash in the bank which stands
at a high
level but must be just in case we might default on a payment we need heavy cash in hand to bail us out this side of the
club really intrigues me as it is not a much talked about subject unless you are into that type of area of work or care about the general fianacial outcome of the
club does anyone have more insight into our finances would be great to hear from anyone about this matter cheers gonerwineverything (because we are)
It was reported Elneney turned down the opportunity to sign for Leicester before the season started as he did not wish to drop a
level and was in love with Arsenal Football
Club.We should be proud the
club is held is held in such high esteem but the player and
if he wishes to sign to be a squad player I absolutely welcome this contract extension.However Elneny is very basic in his overall displays.You have to ask
if he has the ability to affect games, most especially against the
clubs that are regarded as bigger than us (albeit
at the moment.
It remains to be seen
if this could cause some tension
at the top
level of the
club, but it seems Perez is confident enough he has the final say on transfers anyway.
If your ST contract is the same as mine was
at Club Level, you are breaching the terms by selling on
at a profit.

if key demand is met Arsenal legends round up to slam
club at every
level, from board to players
Well written, but I think it will fall on deaf ears, my fear is as follows, it will take a loss in money for the manager and board to change, this will only come
if we finish out of the top 4, but knowing the board they would still give home a season to try again, I feel very sorry for Sanchez, he is total quality and deserves better, most of the other players look settled, turn up give70 % and get paid, no matter what
level you play
at you should come off the pitch thinking I gave everything, how many of our players could say that, they lack motivation, player for player we are as good
if not better than athletico Madrid but they have a manger that gets 100 % out of every player, Klopp is the same, but why would they leave their
clubs to come here with a boar that cares about money not entertainment, Wenger was a lucky manager he inherited a top defence now his luck has run out
I'll finish with this — while I do not WANT Wenger out, I will admit he needs to leave
if his ability to manage and leave the
club is no longer
at a
level to achieve the
club's goals.
why was Sanchez truly playing... no one believes he was too injured to play to start the season, and some like myself would go as far to suggest he wasn't injured
at all... so why play him... they can't say it was to appease the fans because when was that ever a factor
at this
club except when «panic buys» were in the offing... I believe that this was to give Arsenal a little leverage when it comes to negotiating his transfer... just imagine their horrible bargaining position
if Sanchez never saw the field before the deadline then heading back to South America and played for Chile... regardless of the facts, this was sadly again another example of a team putting business ahead of fielding a team with the greatest chance to secure 3 points... of course, some will say that Sanchez is, or was, our best player, so obviously he's a no - brainer to start, but those who really watch the game know that his heart hasn't been truly in it for quite some time... even
at the end of last season you could see a definitive difference between the Sanchez who played for Chile and the one that played for Arsenal... that being said, 70 % of Sanchez is still better than a 100 % of the vast majority of our remaining roster... shame on you Arsene and shame on you too Sanchez for that telling smirk... I've supported your attempt to push this squad to the next
level but don't pretend for a second that you didn't know you were being watched... don't lower your standards or you'll end up like this
club, on the outside looking in
And it could work in the Gunners» favour
if it makes Lukas Podolski, Santi Cazorla and Alex Oxlade - Chamberlain realise that the best way to remedy the situation is to sparkle regularly
at club level.
do nt know
if low can cut it
at club level, has been in the international arena too long for my liking, plus he hasn't had much success
at club level before really poor record in this respect.
Joining a
club of arsenal s stature has its ups and downs.There is a requirement of how our players should perform when on the pitch.The following is a list of players who were wrong to choose arsenal.Aaron ramsey - Even though he is the most favoured of all players
at the
club now.I cant help but think how it would have gone for Him
if he decided to search for other greener pastures.He was a clear talented footballer during his time
at cardiff but he hasnt been raised with the discipline
at arsenal.You can always see ramseys all round strengths but sadly Its not helping him or the
club with his foward moving pleasurr.He is so Over used and its sometimes difficult for him to get used to the rythm of the game.With time you realise he gets low ib confidence and his engine gets wasted.He needed somebody who would have managed him properly and with care and that person is certainpy not wenger.You would have been better off
at Manu mate.Calum chambers - Came us a very talented player from southampton with raw talent.He was very good
at first but wenger found a way to reduce his
level of confidence.His inexperience was left exposed and wenger did nt do anything to resolve that problem and instead He looked for other talented players.Alex oxlade chamberlain - Another very talented player who needed only his skilled sharpened and his character modelled.That and he was ready to become a world beater.But wenger decided to let him run and run like a headless chicken causing him to be often injured and damaging his confidence.Who knows what would have happened to him gad he decided to look for more greener pasture.He is surely a much better player than this.Theo walcott - Another player who was tipped to have a very bright future.He had it in him.But all he needed was an appropriate manager who would nurture him with discipline and help him with his talent.But on Coming to arsenal he was given Much more responsiblities putting more weight on his shoulders on top of that another player who was recklessly managed with his talent and never coming off age because his character wasnt properly shaped.Mesut ozil - Al right i agree he perfoms well just recently.But imagine all the legendary players he was often compared to during his time
at real madrid.On coming to arsenal he found no rotation often overused, suffered many injuries and his confidence dwindled.It is pretty clear arsene does not take any responsibility for players.And when
at arsenal you have to be your own manager.You need not rely on your manager otherwise you might continue being the same player for the next many years.That is why each and every player are what they are because of their own efforts and wenger had nothing to do with it.Van persie was the same player for over 7 years untill he himself decided to change.Wenger only organises and prepares tge team while the rest is in your court.It is not what so many people make it out to be.Thats why we need to pressure wenger more than our own players.They are their own self managers and wenger needs to take that responsibility
even when he suffered a serious knee injury, instead of accepting the fact that he would never stick his legs into the spaces that were crucial for someone with straight ahead speed to succeed, the
club actually contemplated giving him a chance to play up top where his lack of physicality, size and holding up play talents would been on display for all to see... these are not the actions of a
club that really cares about winning
at the highest
levels, but they are the actions of a
club that wasn't interested in spending the necessary resources to purchases a world - class striker, which is usually the most expensive position on the pitch... instead we adopted the horrible phrase «like a new signing» and proceeded to allow this ridiculous experiment to carry on, which ultimately caused some discomfort on the training pitch and inside the locker room as players battled for a position that shouldn't have been theirs for the taking in the first place... don't get me wrong, I believe that Walcott is a talented player, who can help a team reach their goals,
if their goals are relatively modest... just look
at the teams who supposedly expressed interest in his services and they weren't the kind of
clubs who aspire to win
at the highest
levels... as for the reasons why he hasn't been bitching and moaning about moving on just look
at the wage benefits he receives from our
club and his obvious desire to enjoy the societal advantages that come with playing in North London for a
club with worldwide appeal... so instead of continuing to try to fix a coat with a broken zipper simply move on and buy a new and better coat
Classic «wag the dog» rhetoric... let's stop wasting time discussing players who will never help this
club in the future, reminds me too much of the Rosicky and Diaiby years, which provided our inept managerial hierarchy with a plethora of excuses for why we couldn't succeed
at the highest
levels and / or why we didn't make the necessary moves in the transfer market... this
club will never win the EPL or compete in Europe until the Grinch who stole soccer and the Mustache who pays his ridiculous cheques are run out of town... hopefully they will take some of the overpaid and underwhelming deadwood players that WE»VE been supporting for years including Giroud, Walcott, Xhaka, Welbeck, Chambers, Monreal, Ramsey, DeBouchy, Campbell, Mertesaker, Coqs, Elneny, Cech and Wiltshire...
if we don't Wenger will gladly renew their contracts and they will represent the bulk of our starting lineup once Ozil and Sanchez move on
us fans really need to look
at ourselves and see
if Wenger is really the man to take this
club to the next
level.
But what I don't get is why are we keeping a player like Ryan Huddart
at the
club and sending him out on loan,
if we know that he doesn't hold the ability or potential ability to play
at the
level that Arsenal stand
at.
if we cant be
at the same
level as europe elite
clubs then we do nt deserve being in the champions league.
i really hope that arsene wenger has other plans on our striking situation and i hope he is not seriously considering benzema...
if he is then i think he has to sell giroud first because it is very hard to see the guy who benches you on the national team still bench you
at club level... my God how will ollie take that??? itl be devastating for him and to be fair to him, as human it is hard to bear..
He gets to start ahead
if him
at club level.
What would Wenger do
if he was the decision maker
at board room
level all these years,
if it was his
club literally.
Asensio could be an ideal signing for Chelsea
if they were to lose Eden Hazard, with the 22 - year - old looking a similar style of player to the Belgian and one who could go on to enjoy a similar
level of success
at a top
club.
Ozil has played
at the top
level with Real and Germany and
if a player of his caliber only wants to remain with the
club if Wenger is there that tells me something.
It's the fans that keep sacrificing because this team can't get their head out of their own ass... please give me some examples when a top
club ever let their best player leave for free
at the end of a season... Wenger needs to go to PSG and get some money and talent for Sanchez so that we can end this nonsense once and for all... then he needs to publicly apologize for the way in which they handled the whole situation...
if they allow Sanchez to go for free there is no way this club, under the tutelage of Kroenke and Wenger, will ever layout the necessary coin to replace such a talented player, especially considering that Wenger will be a lame - duck manager once again in the final year of his contract and we know how well that went last year... open your eyes people, Wenger has spoken publicly about how he hopes that the next manager can take this club to the next level... WHAT?!?... he then went on to speak about leaving them in the perfect position to be successful, which is one of the reasons why several pundits felt Wenger would leave after last season based on the financials and the fact that so many players had only one year left on their respective contracts... who says this shit??? If you believe you're leaving things in the best possible shape for your potential successor to achieve greatness it raises a couple of serious questions: Why can't you take things to the next level if everything is as great as you sa

Whether this is the real
level that Paulinho can operate
at and his early - season form was merely just a honeymoon period, or
if it's just a case of having to rediscover his best form, it seems the pressure is building on him both outside the
club and within the dressing room, as per this report.
I wish someone on this forum will do the math and let us know
if the
club will actually make more money for being consistently in Europa League with players that are
at the same
level as Ramsey, Szczesny, Gibbs and Giroud, meaning that the wages never cross the 100 k a week line (even though Giroud is on 120
if I'm not wrong).
Bayern Munich have a similar model and they don't charge the earth or anywhere near what we charge for season tickets Southampton have collected an excellent set of players who are now being sought by all of the top
clubs, it boils down to this really there is an ingrained reluctance to spend on proven players and im not suggesting we go silly and spend everything we have and therefor bankrupt the
club but we have no ambition to compete with the major
clubs at any
level, and we ccould
if we were more decisive and less financially cautious.
I must admit that I find it a bit strange that the Spanish right back Hector Bellerin, despite plenty of big game action for the Gunners in recent years, can still boast just three international caps
at senior
level, but
if this can Arsenal in anyway to stop the flying full back being tempted to return to Catalonia to play for his boyhood
club Barcelona, long may it continue.
Yes those guys were wrong but i fear that as the anger builds up from the fans they may take the next
level by beating him up or attacking the players physical.wenger and board have forced the fans to not raise their voices on what they do nt like, but
if you look
at every big
club fans have a say why not
at arsenal?
i like podolski and do nt think wenger has ever really got the best out of him but even
at his best he is no longer a top flight player... we need to sell him and bring in someone who can really add to the
level of our attack... and carvalho is now a benchmark for gauging wenger «s ambition... the lack of proper defensive cover is one reason our attacks have become much less threatening as players do nt want to overstretch knowing what «s not behind them... i am pretty confident we will beat besiktas (a team that would be hanging around the bottom of the epl
if not lower) but the fact that we are in this position again speaks volumes for the way the
club is run and managed
On the other hand, though, Chile being out of the World Cup might just benefit Arsenal
if it meant that Alexis was more determined than ever to win a trophy
at club level this season.
It is rather unfortunate that us fans suffer from not winning any major trophy over the years.What Leicester did was just one off, it will not happen for the next few decades.Football is all about investment, to win u have to invest well with some luck.Everton did look
at where they are now.We are not
at the
level of Real, Barca Manu u name them.The big
clubs invest heavily and still get some return on their investment.Arsenal will not spend like city or chelsea or PSG.We will go down like Leeds.Let us be honest with ourselves,
if u were the owner of this
club u will never sack Wenger.He brings u lot of money year in year out.
His performances
at the
club level have been equally consistent,
if not better.
Indeed it may be scoring goals that proves to be Italy's downfall
at Euro 2016
if Pelle isn't firing on all cylinders, however he has proved
at club level that he is more than capable of finding the back of the net.
Well, he might have to start caring soon
if the dissatisfaction
at the state of the
club among supporters is reflected in attendance
levels in the stadium.
A # 34 million loss for the last recorded accounting period (2012 - 3), including staff costs of # 26.1 million is far from small beer and
if the television deal Leicester will enjoy from August makes those amounts look piddling
at face value, the wages and transfer fees required to compete
at the top
level will almost certainly be sufficient to keep the
club in the red for some time to come.
That result meant that champions Bayern Munich, now under the auspices of veteran coach Jupp Heynckes — the former Real Madrid boss» fourth stint
at the helm of Germany's most successful
club — would draw
level on points with Dortmund
if they could overcome Hamburg in the Saturday evening game.
