It's a shame really how people are so plastic over here.We seem to change our views so easily.Why can't people just make up their minds?It's like people don't have stance.As I've been saying and will keep saying we have many good players but as good as they are they're overrated.We've just compromised as a club.There are problems in every single role in the team, from defence to attack.Yet these problems will constantly be ignored.Some players are cleary not good enough but say it and the stats lovers will come out.The main problem wrong with the team is the centre.The other problem is Wenger and his misuse of players.I for one don't really rate Ramsey - Xhaka partnership in a sense that it's defensively weak with Xhaka not good enough defensively and Ramsey very inconsistent.The only player excellent defensively in the centre in Arsenal's team is Coquelin and I think he should be playing though many won'tsee why.Look how easily the balls went through the midfield.Coquelin should be partnered with another CM in our current team.People shouldn't deceive themselves Xhaka that Xhaka isn't a DM.He's just not good defensively admit it.We need a DM more than a CM in my opinion or a hybrid like Sanches or Jankto.

Not at all.Most who want Wenger out recognise quite clearly the job thenewManager has is not easy.Wenger has allowed complete apathy to set in around the whole club so whoever is appointed will have work to do before we can even dream of being title contenders.You come across as a very typical Wenger lover who knows his time is up and is almost wanting the new Manager to fail.Guess what?The fanbase are not easily fooled but will accept a transition as long as we progress.We still have the core of very very good players who are more than capable of being competitive in this league and with the right additions we can be a force.But we need a Manager who MANAGES AND COACHES THE TEAM.This is clearly beyond Wenger and has been for too long now.It is quite clearly shown by our current league position of SIXTH.And yet you still continue to accept this.The Club needs to raise its expectation levels or else even mediocrity will be beyond us.
