People will then be excited about the beginning of the following season thinking we going to pick up from where we left off, then on the 3rd game we will realise that nothing has changed.We will still have Wenger as our manager, mediocre players, shambolic defence, a striker that scores 1 of the 5 chances he gets, no DM, BFG as vice captain, Arteta leading the team as our DM, Sczerny in goal and a medical room filled with half our squad.

Being resolved can lead him into making inept decisions, this is Arsene Wenger we are discussing I won't be shocked at all on the off chance that he says we have Sanogo and Akpom as strikers we have Walcott who's returned revived in the wake of being scorned by Britain to play on the wings

My opinion is lets say he creates anywhere between 5 and 10 chances in a game well Id say on average maybe two or three of these could be clear cut (one on one with GK or free shot in the area) That is still unbelievably difficult thing to do and strikers should be scoring at least one from three clear cut openings.
