Remember if you aren't at the head of the class when it comes to the development of young talent,
which means eyes on the ground everywhere, a vast array of connections with soccer associations throughout Europe and beyond and a manager willing to properly train and play said blue chippers, (like the 90s Arsenal or clubs like the modern day Monaco and Dortmund) you need to spend to win... anything
in between is highly problematic... failure to make the necessary
changes leaves you
in the proverbial «no man's land» and that is currently where we reside... it's difficult to get out of this rut... just ask either of the Milan
teams... next step after that is being known as a «seller»,
which could be us already if and when Sanchez leaves... there are only two
teams that have worn this moniker
in recent times and had some decent success and that is Athletico Madrid and Dortmond,
which only occurred when they both brought
in new, charismatic leaders
in Simmone & Klopp... the odds that Wenger could conjure up the magic to repeat the performances of a bygone era are incredibly low, so why prolong the agony... he's not willing to create the hierarchy necessary to go the youth route and he's unwilling to put his
team's potential success ahead of his job security by laying it on the line with Moustache, so it's time to place all your chips
in the middle or go gently into that good night

Of course it would be silly to suggest that winning any game, cup or otherwise, isn't good for the club, but let's remember just how problematic FA Cup success has been for this club... I'm certainly not going to suggest I didn't enjoy seeing Arsenal win, I'm a fan of this club first and foremost, but how bad are things when you find yourself secretly wishing that your own
team lost so that just maybe real
change would finally come... I resent this
team for even making me feel such thoughts and it's going to take a lot of effort on their part to earn my trust again... this club has treated the fans so poorly that it has created an incredibly fragile and toxic environment, so much so that a «what have you done for me lately» mentality has emerged... fans rise and fall depending on the results of each game because we don't have faith
in those
in charge to make the necessary
changes to personnel and tactics... each time we win many fans attack any dissenting voices and make unrealistic claims about the players, the manager and the potential for unprecedented success... every time we lose the boo - birds run rampant, calling for heads to roll and predicting the worst... regardless of what side you fall on, it's not your fault, both sides are simply overcompensating for the horrible state of affairs that have been percolating for several years... it's hard to take the long view when those
in charge have lied incessantly and refuse to take any responsibilities for their own actions...
in the end, we are trapped by the same catch - 22 that ManU faced upon Fergie's exit... less fearful of maintaining the status quo than facing the unknown,
which was validated, wrongly or rightly, by witnessing the difficulties they have faced during this transitory period... to be honest, the thing that scares me most is that this
team has never prepared whatsoever for this eventuality,
which considering our frugal nature and the way we have shunned many of our most revered former players is more than a little disconcerting

We have a saying here
in Jamaica «there is no rest for the wicked»,
which actually means you have to continue work till you can not work no more, this principle has been applied to the arsenal
team for a long time and i do not see it
changing, all i can hope for is the
team to continue without any major injuries.
nice to see you crawl out of your hole just
in time to offer your 2 cents worth once again... unlike yourself I started following this
team long before Wenger arrived on the scene and will continue to do so long after he's gone...
in his earlier years I admired the cerebral elements he brought to the EPL,
which at that point was more brutish than beautiful, and I respected the seemingly tireless efforts of Arsene, Dein & staff to uncover and develop talent without sacrificing the product on the field... likewise I appreciated that such a youthful manager wasn't afraid to bring strong personalities and / or world - class players into the fold without being fearful of how said players would potentially undermine and / or dilute his authority... unfortunately this all
changed about 10 years ago and culminated
in the removal of all our greatest players, both young and old, without any real replacements coming
in... from Henry to RVP to Fabergas and Nasri, it was easy to see that this club was no longer interested
in competing at the highest levels... instead of being honest, minus the ridiculous claims regarding the new stadium, Wenger chose to side with management and
in doing so became the «front man» for this corporation pretending to be a world - class soccer club... without the «front man» this organization would have been exposed numerous years earlier, so his presence was imperative if the facade was to continue... it's for this reason and more that I despise what this once great man and Kroenke has done to my beloved club... the gutless, shameful and manipulative way they have treated the fans, like myself, is largely indefensible and this is why I felt it necessary to start offering my opinion
in a public format... trust me, I resisted the temptation for many years but as long as the same shit continues to exist I will voice my opinions and if you don't like it maybe you should look for a different
team to pretend to follow
I know am lot of fans feel as though we've turned the corner with the CL win, but I urge caution, wenger still played basically the same
team barring forced injurys, he also did his usual subs at the last minute, I'm not convinced anything has
changed, we have a few games coming up
which will test the
team, let's see what happens, and then let's see the club put its money where it's mouth is
in Jan

team plans since his recent formation

Wish we had Fergie / he would know Arsenal just needs one player who would impose Arsenal play and draw all the talent we have to it's tempo / Arteta has saved us well for the past 3 or so years
in this regard / Every
team has such an engine
which dictates tempo
changes of tactics of
which Arsenal are without one hence all the problems / ManCity have YAYA / Fergie had SCHOLES / West - Harm now have SONG / Aston - Villa have SANCHEZ / Chelsea have FABRIGAS / Real Madrid had XABI ALONSO / Baca have xavi / Liverpool have Steve Gerard another replica if our own Flamini.
Meanwhile visitors Bournemouth will be looking for their first points since being promoted and manager Eddie Howe hands new signing Max Gradel a full league debut

i still hold the opinion the striker we use is dependent on the opposition we play, for all the brilliance of Alex he has been shut out
in several games by pressing arsenal and letting us having to resort to long balls
which he fails to get on to, if
teams stops arsenal build up, they stop arsenal with sanchez as the forward, however with both Alex and Giroud on the field we have the opportunity to switch styles without making
changes.
Injuries are of major concern but more importantly when the game is not going how you expect you don't leave it till the final ten minutes to
change the dynamic, and you don't field your best 11 against the lesser
teams (unless you don't trust the players on the bench,
in which case you should sell them) sometimes I wish he was as brave as mourinho who is not afraid to take a player off at half time if he thinks it provides him with a better chance of winning.
Nwakali is a forward or wing player, nothing like kante and Ramsey is a squad player for me not first
team quality, if Carzola is fit, him and xhaka would be a mouth watering fit but with Arsenals Injurie luck this seems inlikely but i wounder if the five at the back would work if we play a stubborn
team that defends, i hope Arsene would
change the formation
in such games back to 4 -2-3-1 but this would require a proper rght wing
which we havent had
in years, we've had OX, Campell, Wallcot, Iwobi, Ramsey, Welbeck and Ozil play
in that position and non of them have made it their own like sanchez has with the left wing
Wenger picked the wrong
team IMO then he was too slow
in making
changes which just aided the sinking ship.
why are we so bias.Have we forgotten the man utd match last season where Ramsey
changed everything
in the midfield.Or maybe i watch a different arsenal playing altogether and i need glasses to tell me that Cazorla is better than Ozil and Ramsey is better than Cazorla at box to box.Well now I see why the
team ai nt moving forward.I wonder
which other top manager would play them together or the trio
in the same lineup.How?Well @TH14 i hope you show your face here when this actually comes to a stumbling block and we might as well sell Ramsey according to what you are saying.

Nicholas believes that the influence of Alexis Sanchez since his January move from Arsenal has had an adverse effect on the
team, particularly with regards to Romelu Lukaku as it
changes the way
in which Man Utd play.
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
We are the most incompetent club when u think we was playing 4-2-31 and we needed a lacazette type striker to complete the
team then we
change to 3 -4-3
which ment we needed a welbeck type that's got finishing but instead brought lacazette lol it's a shambles welbeck is are best CF
in a 3 -4-3 it's obvious so unless wenger is gonna go back to 4 -2-3-1 lacazette was a waste of money for a club that hates spending money

The
team we support is playing
in the fa cup semifinal
which is a knockout game and your focused on a Chelsea game no offence mate but you need to get your priorities straight I get the game has significant consequence on our league position both sat and the end of the season but weather you watch it or not it wont
change the outcome of there match so focus everything on our game and watch arsenal and then if you care that much watch the repeat later

in ST & DM position
which would've & could still be an upgrade over what we have you don't take your time you go for it before they
change there mind or
in the case of Pedro with Man U another
team comes and simply lay down $ $ $ without thinking too much (it is also a way to show how much you need & value the player.
A turbo failure
in FP3 left the
team with a monster job to get the engine
changed,
which they managed with just a few minutes to go
in Q1.
Giroud — unless he was willing to be the super-sub without throwing himself on his sword
in the press every ten minutes, as he simply represents all that has been wrong with this club since the sale of RVP... his presence on the pitch makes it impossible for us to make the necessary
changes to our offensive scheme... just think about what
teams were interested
in him, besides the bullshit about Dortmund... it was West Ham, Everton and Marseille, none of
which have the history, supposed aspirations or financial resources to create a one - touch forward - thinking offensive scheme
Listen its simple as ABC i remember the man utd match as soon as we moved Ramsey top his best position the match
changed for us and we were
in the driving seat yet peeps will deny.Ozil and Cazorla i am still thinking of how any other manager will put them
in the same
team, and it will work long term.This is not right.From what you are saying too we might as well sell Ramsey to a top
team which will play him
in his position and i also expect him to be less i njury prone and eventually becoming world class.Its so simple this thing i can tell you will not work forever yet keep denying.Ozil and Cazorla
in the same
team a big no.I want Cazorla
in his best position and that is no 10.
