last season, we have

I've never been in favour of buying your way
to league titles, but in the

Chelsea bought a major chunk in
last 5 years, Barca / Real / BuLi clubs attract the best,
City has its new academy, the rest
come to teams like us.
Yes the new stadium
came at the cost of winning less trophies but you can't have it all, Man Utd won lots of trophies over the
last twenty years but don't have a new stadium, Man
City won the league twice but did not build a new stadium with their own money and now they rent a stadium, Chelsea have won a few trophies and are just now starting
to build a new stadium but the team and the new ground are all funded Abramovich's money and not the club's.
The things that killed us in our
last match were obvious, why was mertsacker running into the box when hes a defender and knowing that hes the only qualified cb in the team surely he should have left the roaming for monreal, too many team members try and instill the responsibility of a WHOLE team onto themselves especially when we go down, now that works in a case where your team is packed with stars ala chelsea and man
city but when you have players like ours our best way
to win is patience and everybody playing THEIR role and playing it f-ing well and only few are doing that at the moment and that is the main spine of our problems when it

Where's all this positivity about our champions league group
coming from?for one I can guarantee 100 % that PSG will finish first ahead of us, I saw someone mention that Man
City and Chelsea beat them but those teams actually have Uefa Champions league level players as

to the semis
last season and Chelsea's champions league is better than ours they have won it before and made more champions league semi finals!
I'd play him in midfield with jack he reminds me Micheal Thomas we have bring sead kolosinic back in or even put him right back cause bellerin has being nothing short of disastrous in every way I like him as a man but my god he has not pushed on and I must say Cech looks so old and sluggish like
last nite when Hernandez hit cross bar Cech looked so slow reactions gone we need keeper and I think Forster be great for us da guy at Southampton I think ozil will stay he's trying a lot more so would I
to get 280 thousand weekly and Sanchez won't go cause not that he wants stay but he's form is very worrying hard take 3 weeks ago I looked at table and said we'll finish above spuds by ten points and in top 4 easily now we're behind them we have no consistency and manager that's just too old I love wenger always will but it's time and I think artery would be great choice for manager he meant be great coach maybe he's the one get Man
City so great after all he loves arsenal maybe it's wenger plan go learn from pep and
come bk when I leave take over and mersaker as he's no2 arteta and bfg take us forward and hand picked by wenger conspiracy theory begins
I too also know that we look weak at the back but i also believe they have learnt from there mistakes
last season and have a stronger unity this season going into the 3rd season with the team wenger has put together without losing key players and adding real Quality and world class that i havent seen before because none of our history says we bought our trophies we won them with all the unexpected beliefs and never bought into the society and modern game we seen before us not one of our legends were already labelled for they are today before they
came to us The made a name for themselfs in our Jersey and build a foundation of what we represent today Before Arsene Wenger and with him We are a club that overachieve and under promise Everything we've done has be our very own unique way of doing it not the way other clubs are ahiceving i for one will not Follow the Man
City's ambitions Chelseas Manchester united or anyone elses
