Besides several teams who have questions surrounding one or possibly two players, there is no squad that has so many issues heading into the final week of the transfer window... even Monaco, who have lost numerous players from their starting 11 have less controversy swirling in and around their club and they have champion's league play to contend with this season... just think of how ridiculous this situation is especially considering that we have had the same manager for over 20 years... no team should be better organized than ours... if nothing else, that should be the one advantage this team holds over all others, yet the exact opposite has occurred... this fact is even more disturbing considering the main argument against removing Wenger from his managerial position was that there was no suitable replacement and that people feared some sort of perceived drop - off if a new manager was brought into the mix... based on what we've witnessed since the time of his contract renewal a monkey with a magic eight ball could have done an adequate job... I hate to make jokes, in light of our current dilemma, but this team is so screwed up if I don't laugh about it, the only plausible response is to either cry or do something incredibly destructive... just look around this squad and try to see what our delusional manager sees that allow him to make such positive statements about our current team

Giroud reminds me a bit of Dimitar Berbatov, as a matter of fact I am wholeheartedly convinced Giroud is Berbatov in disguise, because he is the only striker I have witnessed who can go more than two months without a goal and finish amongst the top 3 strikers in the Premier League, completely similar in style, both very classy finishers, brilliant hold up play they are also both lazy as hell and occasionally turn up in random clusters of games which 80 percent of the time are worthless in the hopes of winning any silverware, but do just about enough to convince you that they are better than they are.

He's a bit overrated I must say.I also don't get those who are asking him to tackle well.The fact is he's not a good tackler.I fear Wenger has made him untouchable in our team such that even if he plays badly he still starts.I mean if people are saying he's not a DM in the first place then is he also a CM?If he's a CM does he have the quality to play along side a DM?These are the questions we need to ask ourselves.If he's a CM then he's good at distributing from deep and also up top but he can't hold thd ball in tight spaces or dribble which is very important.If he's a DM then he simply can't defend.That's why for us to be successful in the long term with him we need a hybrid midfielder or what I call a defensive box to box midfielder.

... he played there against crystal palace, Everton 2 season ago and it was a disaster... our build up is majorly done closer to d centre circle than d oppositions box... that's y girouds hold up play is vital... either we go with dat path or we look for a striker who is lightning quick (so when we make d final pass, it doesn't get wasted), uses both legs to shoot on sight, with good accuracy... playing Sanchez, who is not very good with his back to goal as a 9 is useless and though fast, holds on to d ball a lot tryn to get d best angle to shoot... we need a striker who is very intelligent with d timing of his runs... too bad Walcott is as intelligent as a sheep, cld have been d perfect cf...

Didn't watch the game and to be honest I don't fancy a line up with Giroud upfront, I feel bored usually... I don't like his turtle's movement, I don't like his hold up, I don't like his skill, I don't like his little flick, nor do I like his tongue gesture... Everyone is entitle to his opinion but I don't like those with comments polishing his hold up sh*t... and I'm an Arsenal fan with great passion... Wenger, you failed us big time in the summer not signing a good striker, hey don't say there's no one available because I don't like that too... At this current situation, play wallcot, Kos, sanchez or anyone (bar slow Mert) upfront and I would never complain...

Everyone one in the entire world (except Wenger clearly due to today) knows we needed a striker that could do all the hold up play and bringing others into play that Giroud actually does very well, but also the movement and pace that Walcott brings to be played in behind by our great midfielders.
