so glad you don't run the club, theo is the
best r winger
in the
league when fit, we also have Wellington silva coming back, not to mention ox to cover or Sanchez if we want to play Danny or mezut on the left, let city have Raheem and let their already volatile dressing room implode, let's get Cech, lacazette and a solid dm to compete with le coq, sell Chesney to inter for

So - If we could keep largely injury - free (the most injury free

league.

So there has been hardly any pressure on our first
team except for
in five Cup games all season, whereas ALL of our main rivals have had to contend with much harder opponents

League on a regular basis, as
well as the FA and

We can only hope that the

good for us.

He'll go elsewhere
so in that regard this is our chance to snap up a world class player which isn't gonna happen too often not if we're
in Europa
league again next season which looks highly likely because the squad we have now is not
good enough to make top 4 we can't defend
so we have to outscore most
teams and I doubt we can win Europa
league not with Napoli, Atletico Madrid, Zenit etc and dare I say Dortmund..
The fact is that we have not been
so well set for the start of a Premier
League campaign
in years and until we have almost a full

It's impossible to predict every little breakthrough (a hundred years ago, we'd never have envisioned painless dentistry, the designated hitter or Thighmaster), but we're expert enough (
in sports, not
so much medicine) to forecast that Vince McMahon's WWF will become the umbrella organization that regulates all major
league sports (except for boxing, which will continue to be guided by
good sense alone), and outcomes will be scripted to provide total fan satisfaction (read: fireworks, near - naked women on every sideline, no 8 - 8 playoff
teams ever and especially no Yankees championships).

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
Over the last 4 years, Arsenal have been on average the 4th
best team in England
so for them to win 3 trophies
in 4 years would have paid off massively if you had placed a wager on this, slam him all you want for Premier and Champions
League failures recently, but give him equal amounts of praise for his FA Cup brilliance.
Arsenal fans know and understand the policy of Arsene Wenger
in resting first
team players
in the Capital One Cup games, and even
in the FA cup and Champions
League games when we can, to give those key men a rest as
well as giving some valuable opportunities to the up and coming Gunners from the academy and the likes of Debuchy and Gibbs who have not seen much action
so far this season.

something new for sure will happen at the very least we will be getting new players the question being who...... a striker with 30 goals abomyang a central defender a midfielder new maneger who diago simone will do
well with atlatico or lazio he is connected to them arsenal needs some one within its ranks some one connected to them But today we seen an ugly encounter were certain players should have had the red i think technology should come
in to it and players should be disciplined after The premier
league is a physical strong competition to win it you got to be very strong very accurate and very demanding and if you do not have the
team to do it you do not win our
team didn't live to exceptions of last season
so there for changes will have to happen
«It's
good to see but when you look at the Championship, there are
so many
teams who were
in the Premier
League when I first arrived that you think have the potential to come up again.
Besides several
teams who have questions surrounding one or possibly two players, there is no squad that has
so many issues heading into the final week of the transfer window... even Monaco, who have lost numerous players from their starting 11 have less controversy swirling
in and around their club and they have champion's
league play to contend with this season... just think of how ridiculous this situation is especially considering that we have had the same manager for over 20 years... no
team should be
better organized than ours... if nothing else, that should be the one advantage this
team holds over all others, yet the exact opposite has occurred... this fact is even more disturbing considering the main argument against removing Wenger from his managerial position was that there was no suitable replacement and that people feared some sort of perceived drop - off if a new manager was brought into the mix... based on what we've witnessed since the time of his contract renewal a monkey with a magic eight ball could have done an adequate job... I hate to make jokes,
in light of our current dilemma, but this
team is
so screwed up if I don't laugh about it, the only plausible response is to either cry or do something incredibly destructive... just look around this squad and try to see what our delusional manager sees that allow him to make such positive statements about our current
team
There's 5
teams miles

Orr, the 20 - year - old marvel who gradually is replacing Bobby Hull as the
league's most exciting player, and Esposito, who leads all scorers with 73 points and may become the first player ever to get 100 points

so well that the Bruins are the
league's highest - scoring
team.
It'll take several excellent moves
in the Draft and Free Agency to make the Wings really
good in a hurry, but the
league is designed to make bad
teams decent, and there are a bunch of decent to pretty
good prospects
in the pipeline to try out,
so I'm not too worried about the
team getting worse or staying the same.
so far
in the season, Arsenal have been the
better team and the 9 points cushion is fully deserved but it is still quite early to count them out of the title battle especially if they start to play
good football (hard to believe) there are some factors that will affect their PL season: 1) will they take Europa
League seriously and play to win
in thursdays?
There are no weak
teams or easy games anymore, more
so this mad season... the time for experimenting is
well and truly over, personally I think we should field our
best team in the
league every game because we can not afford to lose any more ground, City are starting to purr and we will be severely punished for any slip ups....
I cant remember the last time i watched Arsenal and was happy, imagine waking up by 4 or 5 am
in the mornings to watch our matches, I am currently
in Japan and it hurts me
so right now I support Madrid I cant stand supporting any other
team in England I do nt even watch other
teams play only Arsenal
well I know we arent getting to the Champions
league anytime soon
so I support Madrid.
It's funny how he said we are
better than Liverpool overrall forgetting that
in terms of players we were still
better than them last season yet the beat us home and away.Liverpool
team is not
so good yet out of all the top four
team they're the ones who play their hearts out.That's why Liverpool didn't lose a single game to a top four
team last season though on paper they should have.As for Tottenham if you look at their
team they just need a few more signings and consistency
so I don't know what's the big deal about them.The painful this is they could've won the
league if not for draws.It was a disgrace for any of those two to finish over us last season because on paper it shouldn't be
so.This should tell you that it's not all about the
team you have.Some it's about luck, sometimes it's about giving your
best and sometimes it's just meant to be.
The only difference is this
team will crash out of the champions
league and will be
in the europa
league which will be another black mark on wenger's legacy
so what
good does that do for him?
I tell you from a footballing point of view scoring 8 goals you got have players that know where the goal posts are it takes energy and creativity to score 8 yes I agree vikings changed their players because their
league is starting i think tomorrow
so yes they were not a big
team team but to say that Arsenal were not strong thats a bit to much and I say it again you need energy and creativity to score 8 I was very happy they did that Arsenal are
well known for creating chances yesterday they converted them chances into Goals this should be the norm and I hope this will give them a lesson on how to win a game as they did nt dwell about with the ball it was goal after goal and that tells me that they went for the goals directly and I hope and wish the young guns all the
best and to do
well in the next season
