but, im ok with this vardy transfer... it shows us many things: 1) wenger
is changing, something some of us have
been demanding for a long time; 2) it shows that wenger
is taking risks: think about it, he
is buying a men for a not cheap price, knowing he could not getting anything after, with a
future sell i mean... this
is an act that shows wengers intentions to win something, the buy
is not motivated by any financial or economic reason but only for a «get the f epl once again» reason... this
is an act that shows us hungry, even if we fail, we could said we try... first ever, we really try; 3) finally but very important... vardy
is the kind of player we need... he
is a warrior, a fighter... he has character... look at how he celebrate his goals... full of energy... he,
like alexis, can motivate the team
when the things
are not going
in our way (something wenger cant do because of his age and because he has never
been an active coach on the pitch)... the vardy transfer, if it finish well,
is a demostration of a change, and a good one... lets take care of winning things and do nt look the economic side for once... vardy
is a bit old, but we can give a chance to welbeck after maybe, or akpom... u
are not thinking about the
future when we talk about ibra... guys: u complain
when wenger do nt spend or because he
is always looking for the bargain
when u
are the guys who has to pay the very expensive tickets... u complain
when wenger buy the always for the
future guy...

As a Fan I know that a fraction of the money I spend as a supporter goes to buy players, unfortunately it seems a very small fraction, so I will continue with my own little contribution, as I know the owner will rather see us
in the relegation battle than dig into his pockets to reinforce the squad, but also would
like to see a gesture from WENGER, whom we all know
is going nowhere, as a Man of principles that he claims to
be and that he will HONOR his Contract till the end, as the ARSENAL lover he claims to
be cut your wages give back some of that money that you did not earn and contribute to the
future glory of the Team,
like each one of us Fans do

also since montreal
when gibbs got injured he
was given plenty of time to heal properly and not
being rushed that,
s why i think his injury record has got better with time,
like wenger said we
are lucky to have them both and kieran
is an important squad player due to his versatility and will have a big part to play
in the 2nd part of the season, also he
is still young and will continue to improve learning from montreal and
in the not too distant
future he will
be our first choice for many years to come, all he needs to do
is to keep at it and
be patient his time will come!!
It
's like pissing
in the wind
when you hear some of these comments that have pathetically branded Wenger as more important than the
future of Arsenal FC, OUR beloved club.
This
is an incredibly difficult question to answer for a variety of reasons, most importantly because over the years our once vaunted «beautiful» style of play has become a shadow of it
's former self, only to
be replaced by a less than stellar «plug and play» mentality where players play out of position and adjustments / substitutions
are rarely forthcoming before the 75th minute... if you look at our current players, very few would make sense
in the traditional Wengerian system... at present, we don't have the personnel to move the ball quickly from deep - lying position, efficient one touch midfielders that can make the necessary through balls or the disciplined and pacey forwards to stretch defences into wide positions, without the aid of the backs coming up into the final 3rd, so that we can attack the defensive lanes
in the same clinical fashion we did years ago... on this current squad, we have only 1 central defender on staf, Mustafi, who seems to have any prowess
in the offensive zone or who can even pass two zones through so that we can advance play quickly out of our own end (I have seen some inklings that suggest Holding might have some offensive qualities but too early to tell)... unfortunately Mustafi has a tendency to get himself
in trouble
when he gets overly aggressive on the ball... from our backs out wide, we've seen pace from the
likes of Bellerin and Gibbs and the spirited albeit offensively stunted play of Monreal, but none of these players possess the skill - set required
in the offensive zone for the new Wenger scheme which requires deft touches, timely runs to the baseline and consistent crossing, especially
when Giroud
was playing and his ratio of scored goals per clear chances
was relatively low (better last year though)... obviously I
like Bellerin
's future prospects, as you can't teach pace, but I do worry that he regressed last season, which
was obvious to Wenger because there
was no way he would have used Ox as the right side wing - back so often knowing that Barcelona could come calling
in the off - season, if he thought otherwise... as for our midfielders, not a single one, minus the more confident Xhaka I watched played for the Swiss national team a couple years ago, who truly makes sense under the traditional Wenger model... Ramsey holds onto the ball too long, gives the ball away cheaply far too often and abandons his defensive responsibilities on a regular basis (doesn't score enough recently to justify): that
being said, I've always thought he does possess a little something special, unfortunately he thinks so too... Xhaka
is a little too slow to ever boss the midfield and he tends to telegraph his one true strength, his long ball play: although I must admit he did get a bit better during some points
in the latter part of last season... it always made me wonder why whenever he played with Coq Wenger always seemed to play Francis
in a more advanced role on the pitch... as for Coq, he
is way too reckless at the wrong times and has exhibited little offensive prowess yet finds himself
in and around the box far too often... let
's face it Wenger
was ready to throw him
in the trash heap
when injuries forced him to use Francis and then he had the nerve to act
like this
was all part of a bigger Wenger constructed plan... he
like Ramsey, Xhaka and Elneny don't offer the skills necessary to satisfy the quick transitory nature of our old offensive scheme or the stout defensive mindset needed to protect the defensive zone so that our offensive players can remain aggressive
in the final third... on the front end, we have Ozil, a player of immense skill but stunted by his physical demeanor that tends to offend, the fact that he
's been played out of position far too many times since arriving and that the players
in front of him, minus Sanchez, make little to no sense considering what he has to offer (especially Giroud); just think about the quick counter-attack offence
in Real or the space and protection he receives
in the German National team
's midfield, where teams couldn't afford to focus too heavily on one individual... this player
was a passing «specialist» long before he arrived
in North London, so only an arrogant or ignorant individual would try to reinvent the wheel and / or not surround such a talent with the necessary components...
in regards to Ox, Walcott and Welbeck, although they all possess serious talents I see them
in large part as headless chickens who
are on the injury table too much, lack the necessary first - touch and / or lack the finishing flair to warrant their inclusion
in a regular starting eleven; I would say that, of the 3, Ox showed the most upside once we went to a back 3, but even he became a bit too consumed by his pending contract talks before the season ended and that concerned me a bit... if I had to choose one of those 3 players to stay on it would
be Ox due to his potential as a plausible alternative to Bellerin
in that wing - back position should we continue to use that formation...
in Sanchez, we get one of the most committed skill players we've seen on this squad for some years but that could all change soon, if it hasn't already of course... strangely enough, even he doesn't make sense given the constructs of the original Wenger offensive model because he holds onto the ball too long and he will give the ball up a little too often
in the offensive zone... a fact that
is largely forgotten due to his infectious energy and the fact that the numbers he has achieved seem to justify the means... finally, and
in many ways most crucially, Giroud, there
is nothing about this team or the offensive system that Wenger has traditionally employed that would even suggest such a player would make sense as a starter... too slow, too inefficient and way too easily dispossessed... once again, I think he has some special skills and, at times, has showed some world - class qualities but he
's lack of mobility
is an albatross around the necks of our offence... so
when you ask who would
be our best starting 11, I don't have a clue because of the 5 or 6 players that truly deserve a place
in this side, 1 just arrived, 3 aren't under contract beyond 2018 and the other
was just sold to Juve... man, this
is theraputic because following this team
is like an addiction to heroin without the benefits
Frye (who works as a designer at Honda

future.
and
when he foolishly miss out on class talent and top target.........
in the near
future, he will
be like «I NEARLY SIGNED MESSI BEFORE HE MOVED TO BARCA».........» Nearly» can't kill a bird
The ramifications on the rest of squad will
be felt either
in the form of a six - man bullpen (unlikely) or a three - man bench (more likely), but if lightening the load on a player with Ohtani's potential with both the bat and the arm ends up
being successful, then this could
be a rough sketch of what the
future looks
like when it comes to rotations across baseball.
bcos he wasn't good enough
in the 1st place.Arteta
is kind of irrelevant to this debate.The point
is Wiltshere feels that he
is entitled to a place
in the team for some reason, which
is strange to me seeoing that Wiltshere has
been injured for most of the season, the
likes of Coquelin an Cazorla have driven the team on, Wiltshere can't just expect to get back
in the team
when these 2 have proved more efective.Wiltshere has a
future at Arsenal but he must stay fit an fight for his place, he can't expect to just walk back into the team
Arsenal
are known for buying «kids» and as such have some very exciting prospects developing
in the
likes of Dan Crawley and Gedion Zelalem, the
future is not
in question
when you look at Arsenal.
Sometimes feels more
like fantasy American football rather than football — «trade Sanchez for Sterling, cash,
future considerations and a third round draft pick
in 2022» Seriously
when was the last time Arsenal made a player exchange?
which
is certainly not a slight on the young french national player;
like him or not, Sanchez has provided some real world - class performances for club and country
in recent years... if you do this move, you need to really clean house or face some serious consequences for the foreseeable
future... half measures
are rarely rewarded, that
's how we got here... tear down the wall... we need to get rid of Giroud, not because he isn't a talented player, his skill - set simply doesn't make sense if we hope to maximize the offensive potential of a quick passing, one - touch scheme... we need to evolve,
like Barcelona, who realized you needed to have clinical finishers or face a mind - numbing
future of horizontal passes and largely ineffective crosses... Barca went and got Suarez, even though they had Messi and Neymar on the roster (just imagine the possibilities — another
in the litany of Wenger «what ifs»)... we need to
be as clinical
in the boardroom as on the pitch... accept nothing less or move on... personally I would move on from Welbeck, Giroud and Walcott, even Ox if he isn't all
in... I think the most intriguing player might
be Perez, which runs counter to the thoughts
in my head
when he arrived late last summer... we need a deep lying DM with quick feet and long ball potential, midfielders who can counter quickly even
when they
are spread out and 4 or 5 players who know how to attack the lanes (kind of a cross between Barca, Dortmund and Monaco)... this
is seriously an achievable goal, one that logically should have
been achieved quite a few years ago... did no one
in the Arsenal organization see the financial restructuring of the football universe... think of the players we could have had but we weren't willing to cough up the dough only for those individuals to have their value double or triple within a 12 to 24 month period... even if just from an investment perspective these «no deals» represent a failure of monumental proportions... only if you cared, of course
Time for some brutal honesty... this team, as it stands,
is in no better position to compete next season than they
were 12 months ago, minus the fact that some fans have
been easily snowed by the acquisition of Lacazette, the free transfer LB and the release of Sanogo... if you look at the facts carefully you will see a team that still has far more questions than answers... to better show what I mean by this statement I will briefly discuss the current state of affairs on a position - by - position basis...
in goal we have 4 potential candidates, but
in reality we have only 1 option with any real
future and somehow he
's the only one we have actively tried to get rid of for years because he and his father
were a little too involved on social media and he got caught smoking (funny how people still defend Wiltshire under the same and far worse circumstances)... you would think we would want to keep any goaltender that Juventus had interest
in, as they seem to have a pretty good history
when it comes to that position... as far as the defenders on our current roster there
are only a few individuals whom have the skill and / or youth worthy of our time and / or investment, as such we should get rid of anyone who doesn't meet those simple requirements, which means we should get rid of DeBouchy, Gibbs, Gabriel, Mertz and loan out Chambers to see if last seasons foray with Middlesborough
was an anomaly or a prediction of things to come... some fans have lamented wildly about the return of Mertz to the starting lineup due to his FA Cup performance but these sort of pie
in the sky meanderings
are indicative of what
's wrong with this club and it
's wishy - washy fan - base...
in addition to these moves the club should aggressively pursue the acquisition of dominant and mobile CB to stabilize an all too fragile defensive group that has self - destructed on numerous occasions over the past 5 seasons... moving forward and building on our need to re-establish our once dominant presence throughout the middle of the park we need to target a CDM then do whatever it takes to get that player into the fold without any of the usual nickel and diming we have become famous for (this kind of ruthless haggling has cost us numerous special players and certainly can't help make the player
in question feel good about the way their
future potential employer feels about them)...
in order for us to become dominant again we need to
be strong up the middle again from Goalkeeper to CB to DM to ACM to striker,
like we did
in our most glorious years before and during Wenger
's reign... with this
in mind, if we want Ozil to
be that dominant attacking midfielder we can't keep leaving him exposed to constant ridicule about his lack of defensive prowess and provide him with the proper players
in the final third... he
was never a good defensive player
in Real or with the German National squad and they certainly didn't suffer as a result of his presence on the pitch... as for the rest of the midfield the blame falls squarely
in the hands of Wenger and Gazidis, the fact that Ramsey, Ox, Sanchez and even Ozil
were allowed to regularly start
when none of the aforementioned had more than a year left under contract
is criminal for a club of this size and financial might... the fact that we could find money for Walcott and Xhaka, who weren't even guaranteed starters, means that our whole business model needs a complete overhaul... for me it
's time to get rid of some serious deadweight, even if it means selling them below what you believe their market value
is just to simply right this ship and change the stagnant culture that currently exists... this means saying goodbye to Wiltshire, Elneny, Carzola, Walcott and Ramsey... everyone, minus Elneny, have spent just as much time on the training table as on the field of play, which would
be manageable if they weren't so inconsistent from a performance standpoint (excluding Carzola, who
is like the recent version of Rosicky — too bad, both will
be deeply missed)...
in their places we need to bring
in some proven performers with no history of injuries... up front, although I do
like the possibilities that a player
like Lacazette presents, the fact that we had to wait so many years to acquire some true quality at the striker position falls once again squarely at the feet of Wenger... this issue highlights the ultimate scam
being perpetrated by this club since the arrival of Kroenke: pretend your a small market club
when it comes to making purchases but milk your fans
like a big market club
when it comes to ticket prices and merchandising... I believe the reason why Wenger hasn't pursued someone of Henry
's quality, minus a fairly inexpensive RVP,
was that he knew that they would demand players of a similar ilk to
be brought on board and that wasn't possible
when the business model
was that of a «selling» club... does it really make sense that we could only make a cheeky bid for Suarez, or that we couldn't get Higuain over the line
when he
was being offered up for half the price he eventually went to Juve for, or that we've only paid any interest to strikers who
were clearly not going to press their current teams to let them go to Arsenal
like Benzema or Cavani... just part of the facade that finally came crashing down
when Sanchez finally called their bluff... the fact remains that no one wants to win more than Sanchez, including Wenger, and although I don't agree with everything that he has done off the field, I would much rather have Alexis front and center than a manager who has clearly bought into the Kroenke model
in large part due to the fact that his enormous ego suggests that only he could accomplish great things without breaking the bank... unfortunately that isn't possible anymore as the game has changed quite dramatically
in the last 15 years, which has left a largely complacent and complicit Wenger on the outside looking
in... so don't blame those players who demanded more and
were left wanting... don't blame those fans who have tried desperately to raise awareness for several years
when cracks began to appear... place the blame at the feet of those who
were well aware all along of the potential pitfalls of just such a plan but continued to follow it even
when it
was no longer a financial necessity,
like it ever really
was...
... what happened to Ivan and Wenger putting a buy - back clause
in his contract
when they sold him to Bremen (Madrid, Barcelona and Juve do this)... mate i think you should also add the
likes of Debuchy, Gibbs, Jenkinson, Walcott cos if you can keep this dudes and not send them on loan, rather give them new contracts then this guy should have
been given ample opportunity
in the first team... Bayern only acted wisely cos they know the young lad who scored 11 gaols
in 27 bundesliga appearances
is more
like the
future of the German squad and since Sanchez» weekly pay
is just too much for a German club to pay Gnabry can offer them something close to it (Sanchez any day though)

is a reliable strong summertime rating week -
in and week - out for networks even

's not
in action, and the sport has a stacked roster of fun young stars who can keep things rolling for the significant
future.
If you heard what Wenger said about Wilshere, it doesn't sound
like he has a
future at the Emirates either,
when asked about his
future he said «Bournemouth have not come
in with an offer for him», which indicates that he
is looking to off load him.
And someone
in the
future will dig through the history of Marlins Park, and they'll discover that there
was a time
when everyone thought the structure
was a joke, an out - of - place abomination,
like the people who couldn't imagine spoiling the natural beauty of the Golden Gate with a bridge.
Although it will
be incredibly difficult to ever match his contributions on the pitch, it
's vitally important for a former club legend,
like Henry, to publicly address his concerns regarding the direction of this club... regardless of those who still feel that Henry has some sort of agenda due to the backlash he received following earlier comments he made on air regarding Arsenal, he has an intimate understanding of the game, he knows the fans
are being hosed and he feels some sense of obligation, both professionally and personally, to tell it
like he sees it... much
like I've continually expressed over the last couple months, this team isn't evolving under this current ownership / management team... instead we
are currently experiencing a «stagnant» phase
in our club
's storied history... a fact that can't
be hidden by simply changing the formation or bringing
in one or two individuals... this team needs fundamental change
in the way it conducts business both on and off the pitch or it will continue to slowly devolve into a second tier club... regardless of the euphoria surrounding our escape act on Friday evening, as it stands, this club
is more likely to
be fighting for a Europa League spot for the foreseeable
future than a top 4 finish... we can't hope for the failures of others to secure our place
in the top 4, we need to
be the manufacturers of our own success by doing whatever
is necessary to evolve as an organization... if Wenger, Gazidis and Kroenke can't take the necessary steps following the debacle they manufactured last season, their removal
is imperative for our
future success... unfortunately, I strongly believe that either they don't know how to proceed
in the present economic climate or they
are unwilling to do whatever it takes to turn this ship around... just look at the current state of our squad, none of our world class players
are under contract beyond this season, we have a ridiculous wage bill considering the results, we can't sell our deadwood because we've mismanaged our personnel decisions and contractual obligations, we haven't properly cultivated our younger talent and we might have become one of the worst clubs ever
when it comes to way we handle our transfer business, which under Dein
was one of our greatest assets... it
's time to get things right!!!
Great Reception???, tell you the truth Im not one of those gunners who started supporting the gunners during the invicibles or early Wenger double winning years, quite honestly i wasnt ineterested
in football and I
liked a certain Crespo and Shevchenko meaning I
liked the blue half of London, surprisingly
when Mourinho joined I stopped watching football all together, till one glorious Champions League Night, It
was my first ever Match there
was a certain 20 year old highly rated youngster who scored a wonder goal that day he played with such skill and passion ever since then I started supporting arsenal that
was during the barren years.I actually
liked Barcelona because of their similarity with the arsenal, so
when Fabregas joined Barca I started to watch them a bit more I still loved Arsenal and I
was extremely passionate, the other players i adored left
in painful manners, while some left which
was still painful: i.e Eboue.I always taught cesc would come back and
when it
was official he
was leaving Barca i said Finally almost hosting a party.Well reports started coming out that he
is going to join chelsea and i laughed so hard and said he would
be the last player on earth to do that,
when it became official words cant express how i felt, He
was the reason I started watching football he lit up the emirates with exquisite touches through balls to walcott, its a shame I would have preferred he joined bayern, or remained
in barca its terrible reading the comments he made recently about the emirates, This
was a captain, someone who led, anyways,
like ive learnt and Arsenal have learnt, We do nt live in the past Like Liverpool (no pun) WE ARE THE PRESENT AND THE FUTURE (Crowley)(Puma) WE ARE ARSENAL.

in - house so they don't devalue a player, expose a weakness, provide info that could give an opposing club leverage
in future negotiations and / or give them vital intel regarding a
future match, but
when dishonesty becomes the norm the relationship between cub and fan will surely deteriorate...
in our particular case, our club has done an absolutely atrocious job
when it comes to cultivating a healthy and honest relationship with the media or their fans, which has contributed greatly to our lack of success
in the transfer market... along with poor decisions involving weekly wages, we can't ever seem to get true market value for most of our outgoing players and other teams seem to squeeze every last cent out of us
when we
are looking to buy; why wouldn't they,
when you go to the table with such a openly desperate and dysfunctional team
like ours, you have all the leverage; made even worse by the fact that who wouldn't want to see our incredibly arrogant and thrifty manager squirm during the process... the real issue at this club
is respect, a word that appears to
be entirely lost on those within our hierarchy... this
is the starting point from which all great relationships between club and supporters form... this doesn't mean that a team can't make mistakes along the way, that
's just human nature, it
's about how they chose to deal with these situations that will determine if this relationship flourishes or devolves..
Therefore, a good strategy
when betting tournament
futures is to estimate the moneyline quote of a team you
like in each round.
I made one error
in assuming that Arsenal shareholders take money out of the club (but don't think the
likes of Kroenke won't do so
in future, unless you
're naïve enough to think he
's in it for the love of Arsenal and nothing else) and
was happy to hold my hands up
when it
was pointed out to me.
