Ruthlessness, player petting (continually giving chances to players like Giroud rwho will not lead Arsenal anywhere rather than going out and strongly bidding and buying a top quality ST), slowness in reacting deficiencies in the squad even in January windows where it is clearer and the season can still be turned around, not basing our transfer windows on banking or players who get injured consistently, getting players we need and making respectable offers for players we need (like the Suarez debacle) are some of the things I mentioned.

I know it doesn't make any economic sense, but I would say this to the Ox: either you go to the team with the highest bid — at this moment Chelsea — or we keep you at Arsenal as a benched squad player in the under - 23s and bury your chances of playing for England in the next World Cup, and explain to him that when he does go for free, it'll be to a club like West Brom on a quarter of the wage Chelsea are prepared to play.

Valued at an incredible # 46m, Chelsea have bid for Atletico Madrid winger Antoine Griezmann, who scored 25 goals from out wide last season and who would make a serious upgrade on players like Willian and Juan Cuadrado.

Walcott is only a better finisher and maybe a little bid faster, however, sterling has qualities like dribbling and penetrating, passing, and less injury prone player... Actually players like sterling would help us to break down organized and deep defense line (yesterday game as an example)... Ox is more similar to sterling but you all know Ox is very very injury prone player... I think if sterling to leave liverpool for an English club, then it will be for city or chelsea because they can afford better offer and salary...

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...

Not sure why arsenal do nt do like all the other clubs like man city (Sanchez) chelsea / liverpool (ox and sanchez) and put a bid in for Mahrez just to unsettle the player so he does nt play..

You do nt need to wait for a player to be avaliable to buy them, look at how many players we have lost because other teams bid for our players and we didn't say know and its not like we asked for crazy money for them (we should have got another 10 million for fabregas and only 16 million for henry??? he should have been double that)

will real Madrid, Bayern, PSG, or juve want to bid for any of our players no, but the likes of kann, alli, Erickson, alderwield, dembele these are all 100 million players that's progress I think non of our players is worth 40 million now, arsenal is full of average players

Dybala and Mandzukic... Juve must be ready to offload someone... unfortunately we will be beaten to the player by the likes of Tottenham (Went for Jenssen and got him), Leicester, Liverpool etc... But of course Wenger will do a 10 - 15M bid and we will get rejected again...

Personally I would say the guy just ain't worth it.That money can be used more wisely to get what we need.Lemar shouldn't have been a priority.The centre of the park should have been the problem.We are missing the point clearly.Even Bernardo Silva is as good as him yet went for lower.I've watched him and I know eventually he'll be world class but that doesn't mean he should be worth that bid because we have players his age wiyh more potential and cheaper.I remember people stating how Lacazette was not even worth # 45 some seasons back then all of a sudden he's signed for higher and people are behaving like they already like him.I'm sure the logic was that he was in the French league and possibly can't cut it at the top.This isn't money well spent at all.

Many might say that hell would have to freeze over before Arsene signed a player like Costa --- but don't forget, he put in a bid for Suarez.

It is like a mantra in his head, «it's all about wanting more» is a regular phrase, and it is an opportune moment to discuss the journey he has made from bit - part player, from someone who was even offered up as a makeweight in a failed bid to sign Clint Dempsey from Fulham in 2012, to being shunted around the team, then hampered by a chronic heel injury, fretting about his future, to now being a captain, a leader, a key player for Klopp.

enter a bidding war for a player Madrid don't rate maybe levy is being sold a dud who I think has suspect hamstrings but like lovren we thought was excellent.

Wenger I have to admit is very clever in the way he manages to do this every year, putting in insulting bids to other clubs that even us arsenal fans know are way under the asking price so that it looks like an attempt was made, really its just for show, then he talks in extremes about how signing players for 25M will result in a football clubs implosion which is also utter nonsense, the money arsenal have brought in on player sales alone in recent seasons should merit some reinforcement, let alone the emirates revenue, tv money and sponsorship deals.

Pellegrini likes these types of players, and in May they already bid 40m for Pogba.

If Weigl was available, there would be many clubs interested in the player, which would cause an auction - like bidding system for the player, which I am sure Mourinho and United would be keen to avoid, so the mere suggestion of United's interest in the play could cause another diversion with United having a clear run at whoever they see as the player to solve the midfield problem.
