whether for the right or wrong reasons, our leader chose to stay on when
things took a turn
of sorts... a new owner arrived on the scene, plans for a new stadium emerged and Wenger became the bearer
of bad news... he sold us on a new story, one that required patience on our parts... financial constraints were the order
of the day, so that the enormous sums spent on the new venue could be recouped... although some would question the validity
of such claims, why wouldn't they believe their faithful leader... according to those within the hierarchy, the future never looked so bright, as this new home would ensure our place among the elites for years to come... as we all know now these claims were a well constructed fabrication and so those who feel they were duped in the process are infuriated and rightly so... the fact that this club and it's manager have continually misled the
fans, especially following Gazidis's claims about our financial liquidity, simply rubbed more salt in an already gaping wound... this surely isn't how you treat your «family», especially when they supported you through the supposed «lean» years... it was a dirty trick played by Kroenke but the fact is was orchestrated by Wenger himself hurt the most... as for those in the media, many
of whom are former players or longtime pundits, who observed the early years firsthand, saw this as the perfect opportunity to vent the anger they felt towards this pretentious man once and for all... all in all, karma's a bitch

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 disconcerti

One
of the great
things about SB Nation is that we have
such passionate communities that give us the real pulse
of every NBA
fan base.
Up front we have a few world - class players surrounded by some serious pretenders... Sanchez is by far the most accomplished player in our attack but the controversy surrounding his contractual mishandling could see him go before the window closes or most definitely by season's end... obviously a mistake by both parties involved, as Sanchez's exploits have never been more on display than in North London, but the club's irresponsible wage structure and lack
of real intent have been the real undoing in this mess... Lacazette, who I think has some world - class skills as a front man, will only be as good as the players and system around him, which is troubling due to our current roster and Wenger's love
of sideways passing... Walcott should have been sold years ago, enough said, and Welbeck should never have been brought in from the get - go... both
of these players have suffered numerous injuries over their respective careers and neither are good enough to overcome
such difficulties: not to mention, they both are below average first - touch players, which should be the baseline test for any player coming to a Wenger - led Arsenal team... Perez should have been played wide left or never purchased at all; what a huge waste
of time and money, which is ridiculous considering our penny pinching ways and the fact that
fans had been clamoring for a real striker for years... finally Giroud, the fact that he stills wears the jersey is a direct indictment
of this club's failure to get
things right... this isn't necessarily an attack on Giroud because I think he has some highly valued skills, but not for a team that has struggled to take their sideways soccer to the next level, as his presence slows their game even more, combined with our average, at best, finishing skills... far too often those in charge have either settled or chosen half - measures and ultimately it is us that suffer because no matter what happens Wenger, Gazidis and Kroenke will always make more money whereas we will always be the ones paying for their mistakes... so every time someone suggests we should just shut - up and support the team just think
of all the sacrifices you've made along the way and simply reply... f *** off
The only
thing i can say is wenger is stalling, waiting for clubs
such as madrid, to break off some crumbs our way and this will not happen until the last week
of the window, which i think he did last season and failed badly, the names mention in the media is just to keep us as
fans wishing that something will happen soon.
We would appreciate you coming out at times and say
things like: - «we played poorly» - «we had a plan but didn't execute» - «regardless
of any wrongdoing we should not have lost by
such a margin» - «I and the players are owning this and will take responsability for it» - «sorry to the
fans who came»... and I could keep going
there is no doubting that Arsene has helped to provide us with some incredible footballing moments in the formative years
of his managerial career at Arsenal, but that certainly doesn't and shouldn't mean that he has earned the right to decide when and how he should leave this club... there have been numerous managers at each
of the biggest clubs in Europe throughout the last decade who have waged far more successful campaigns than ours yet somehow and someway each were given their walking papers because they failed to meet the standards laid out by the hierarchy
of their respective clubs...
of course that doesn't mean that clubs should simply follow the lead
of others, especially if clubs
of note have become too reactionary when it comes to issues
of termination, for whatever reasons, but there should be some logical discourse when it comes to the setting
of parameters for a changing
of the guard... in the case
of Arsenal, this sort
of discourse was largely stifled when the higher - ups devised their sinister plan on the eve
of our move to the Emirates... by giving Wenger a free pass due to supposed financial constraints he, unwittingly or not, set the bar too low... it reminds me
of a landlord who says he will only rent to «professional people» to maintain a certain standard then does a complete about face when the market is lean and vacancies are up... for those who rented under the original mandate they
of course feel cheated but there is little they can do, except move on, especially if the landlord clearly cares more about profitability than keeping their word... unfortunately for the lifelong
fans of a football club it's not so easy to switch allegiances and frankly why should they, in most cases we have been around far longer than them... so how does one deal with
such an untenable situation... do you simply shut - up and hope for the best, do you place the best interests
of those with only self - serving agendas above the collective and pray that karma eventually catches up with them, do you run away with your tail between your legs and only return when
things have ultimately changed, do you keep trying to find silver linings to justify your very existence, do you lower your expectations by convincing yourself it could be worse or do you stand up for what you believe in by holding people accountable for their actions, especially when every fiber
of your being tells you that something is rotten in the state
of Denmark

thing that jumps out are the LED lights on the Halo - unless they're just there to look cool, it appears they could be used to relay various bits

such as pink - themed merchandise and a social media campaign which encourages
fans to share their stories using the hashtag #DriveForTheCure.
players like Ozil always present the
fans with a bit
of a conundrum, especially when times are tough... if you look around the sporting world every once in awhile there emerges a player with incredible skill, like Ozil, Matt Sundin or even Jay Cutler, who have a different way about themselves... their movement seemed almost too lackadaisical, so much so that it seemed to suggest indifference or even disinterest on the part
of the player... their posture always appears somewhat mopey and they generally have an unflattering «sour puss» expression on their face... for some their above average skills are enough to keep them squarely in the mix, as their respective teams try desperately to find a way to get the best out
of them visa vie player acquisitions or the reworking
of tactics... when
things go according to planned the
fans usually find a way to accept their unique disposition, whereas when
things go awry they become easy targets for
fans and pundits alike... in the case
of Ozil and Sundin, their successes on the international stage and / or with their former teams led many to conclude that if we surrounded
such talented individuals with players that have those skills that would most likely bring the best
of these players success would surely follow... unfortunately both the Maple Leafs and our club chose to adopt half - measures, as each were being run by corporations who valued profitability over providing the best possible product on the field... for them, they cared more about shirt sales and season tickets than doing whatever was necessary... this isn't, by any stretch, an attempt to absolve Ozil
of any responsibility for his failures on the pitch... there is no doubt oftentimes his efforts were underwhelming, to say the least, but this club has been inept when it comes to providing this prolific passer with the kind
of players necessary for him to flourish... with our poor man's version
of Benzema up front, the headless chickens in Walcott, the younger Ox and Welbeck occupying wide positions far too often and the fact that Carzola, who provided Ozil with great service and more freedom to roam, was never truly replaced, the only real skilled outlet on the pitch was Sanchez... remember to be considered a world - class set - up man goals need to be scored and for much
of his time here he has been surrounded by some incredibly inept finishers... in the end, I'm not sure how long he will be in North London, recent sentiments and his present contract situation seem to suggest that he will depart at season's end, but how tragic would it be if once again we didn't put our best foot forward and failed to make those moves that could have brought championship football back to our once beloved club... so when you think about this uniquely skilled player don't be so quick to shift all the blame on his shoulders because he will not be the first or the last highly skilled player to find disappointment at the Emirates if we don't rid the club
of those individuals that are truly to blame for our current woes
Plz, do nt say
such things amongst other football
fans bec i am tired
of them making jokes about us.
There is no real answer to the question you have posed because this club has once again hedged their bets on doing the bare minimum then hoping for the best... if they were serious about changing the stagnant culture that has permeated the club since our move from the Highbury, we would have immediately released and / or moved several players in the early days
of the window... this would have demonstrated to the
fans that they were serious about addressing our obvious inadequacies... likewise this would have forced them to bring in replacements because they couldn't have used the lame excuse Wenger is presently spewing about having too many players... we functionally have the same amount
of players as we did when the window first opened but he didn't say jack about it then... he simply waited until the inevitable happened then pulled out his excuse Rolodex, closed his eyes and randomly drew the «too many players» card... the more he opens his mouth, the more I understand his «god» complex when it relates to all
things Arsenal... what other manager could continually do the same dumb shit, not address obvious concerns for years, speak to the
fans in
such a condescending manner, face enormous criticism from many
of his former star players and be the architect
of so many failed player signings yet be one
of the highest paid managers with the longest tenure in Europe... maybe Kroenke is colourblind and instead
of seeing all the red flags he can only see the GREEN ones ($ $ $)
Picture this, we don't come out
of the gate firing on all cylinders, Wenger speaks
of how there wasn't enough time for the first - teamers to build chemistry, several key players aren't even playing because
of Wenger's utterly ridiculous policy regarding players who played in the Confed Cup or the under21s and the boo - birds have returned in full flight... if these
things were to happen, which is quite possible considering the Groundhog Day mentality
of this club, how long do you think it will take for Wenger to recant his earlier statements regarding Europa... I would suggest that it's these sorts
of comments from Wenger which are often his undoing... why would any manager worth his weight in salt make
such a definitive statement before the season has even started... why would any manager who fashions himself an educated man make
such pronouncements before even knowing what his starting 11 will be come Friday, let alone on September 1st... why would any manager who has a tenuous relationship with a great many supporters offer up
such a potentially contentious talking point considering how many times his own words have come back to bite him in the ass... I think he does this because he doesn't care what you or I think, in fact he's more than slightly infuriated by the very idea
of having to answer to the likes
of you and me... that might have been acceptable during his formative years in charge, when the
fans were rewarded with an scintillating brand
of football and success felt like a forgone conclusion, but this new Wenger led team barely resembles that team
of ore... whereas in times past we relished a few words from our seemingly cerebral manager, in recent times those words have been replaced by a myriad
of excuses, a plethora
of infuriating stories about who he could have signed but didn't and what can only be construed as outright fabrications... it's kind
of funny that when we want some answers, like during the whole contract debacle
of last season, we can't get an intelligent word out
of him, but when we just what him to show his managerial acumen through his actions, we can't seem to get him to shut - up... I beg you to prove me wrong Arsene
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...
It's the
fans that keep sacrificing because this team can't get their head out
of their own ass... please give me some examples when a top club ever let their best player leave for free at the end
of a season... Wenger needs to go to PSG and get some money and talent for Sanchez so that we can end this nonsense once and for all... then he needs to publicly apologize for the way in which they handled the whole situation... if they allow Sanchez to go for free there is no way this club, under the tutelage
of Kroenke and Wenger, will ever layout the necessary coin to replace
such a talented player, especially considering that Wenger will be a lame - duck manager once again in the final year
of his contract and we know how well that went last year... open your eyes people, Wenger has spoken publicly about how he hopes that the next manager can take this club to the next level... WHAT?!?... he then went on to speak about leaving them in the perfect position to be successful, which is one
of the reasons why several pundits felt Wenger would leave after last season based on the financials and the fact that so many players had only one year left on their respective contracts... who says this shit??? If you believe you're leaving
things in the best possible shape for your potential successor to achieve greatness it raises a couple
of serious questions: Why can't you take
things to the next level if everything is as great as you say?
At the end
of the day we are all Arsenal
fans and it's just sad to see
such disrespect when ultimately we want the same
thing.
The only
thing AKBs knows best nowdays is to thumb down pple rather than challenge the just concerns
of the true arsenal

such deadwood
fans should also be shipped out as we embark on a serious process
of sanitizing the club!!!
much like when a country can't divulge highly classified information publicly for obvious economic and military reasons, a professional soccer organization must keep certain
things in - house so they don't devalue a player, expose a weakness, provide info that could give an opposing club leverage in future negotiations and / or give them vital intel regarding a future match, but when dishonesty becomes the norm the relationship between cub and
fan will surely deteriorate... in our particular case, our club has done an absolutely atrocious job when it comes to cultivating a healthy and honest relationship with the media or their
fans, which has contributed greatly to our lack
of success in the transfer market... along with poor decisions involving weekly wages, we can't ever seem to get true market value for most
of our outgoing players and other teams seem to squeeze every last cent out
of us when we are looking to buy; why wouldn't they, when you go to the table with
such a openly desperate and dysfunctional team like ours, you have all the leverage; made even worse by the fact that who wouldn't want to see our incredibly arrogant and thrifty manager squirm during the process... the real issue at this club is respect, a word that appears to be entirely lost on those within our hierarchy... this is the starting point from which all great relationships between club and supporters form... this doesn't mean that a team can't make mistakes along the way, that's just human nature, it's about how they chose to deal with these situations that will determine if this relationship flourishes or devolves..
This is your exact words — «The only
thing AKBs knows best nowdays is to thumb down pple rather than challenge the just concerns

The Arsenal
fans have been telling Arsene Wenger this sort
of thing for years, we even have our in jokes about the
things he says
such as fit again players being like a new signing, but the boss does not seem to be listening.
Handing him
such a huge responsibility relatively early in his career, at 26, will not only shift his already unwavering focus solely on winning
things for United but also confirm his stature among
fans as one
of United's greatest - ever players and that is no mean feat.
But
such objections, perhaps, are for purists, and so long as games are being won they can be dismissed by
fans and by Van Gaal as nothing more than the grumbling
of old men insistent
things were better in their day.
I cant understand some
fans how can you say a player like villa cud not do a job at arsenal he is a world class finisher something we do nt hav at the moment as much as henry is a god at the emirates lets face it last yr he cudnt give us no more than 15 mins a game the pace had left him plus he iz now 35 david villa to me regardless his age is one
of the most prolific strikers out there like tola said look at raul villa is that type
of player theu might lose pace but neva lose the knack
of scoring goals wenger bring him in and another
thing barca as a big club shud be ashame
of themselves still owing arsenal money
of those transfers for
such a big club arsenal shud be going in for more players than jus david villa
There is not really any
such thing as an easy game in the last 16
of the Champions League, but Real Madrid players,
fans and manager will be quite pleased to have drawn the German Bundesliga club Schalke for the knockout games due to be played in February.
He did nt mention anything about lots
of them looking exactly the same, he had a really good play with a couple
of twin girls and loved all the double buggies, he is a
fan of twin club now Fridays scan was a proper, long scan to check the growth
of both girls, the scans are getting more and more uncomfortable now as its so difficult to lie on my back, but my consultant is just
such an excellent sonographer (compared to all others who had a go at scanning before) that the whole
thing is ok, painless and swift, even though not rushed!
I have to admit that I wouldn't be
such a
fan of the all - in - one
thing.
The reason I'm
such a huge
fan of ALLSAINTS is their unique designs and superior construction for all
things considered, a retail chain.
I'm
such a
fan of so many
of these
things, and can't wait to try all the rest!
One
of the worst
things I read was a Trump
fan commenting on how it would be wonderful to have
such a beautiful first lady as Melania and to not have to see Michelle's ugly face... I was so upset, Michelle is beautiful, unbelievably so, she has the heart which makes her beautiful inside and out... xox
Personally, I am a huge
fan of sheet masks as I am
such a messy person, so this mask includes two
things I look for, so must be tried at some point.
We've tested dozens
of dating apps and are big
fans of these eight because they have extensive search capabilities that include qualifiers for sexual orientation,
of course, but also so many other
things —
such as age, location, ethnicity, religion, hobbies, and lifestyle habits.
I'm a die hard
fan of Disney, anime, steampunk, sci fi, fantasy, and other
such things.
Fans will wonder what happened to a lot
of things in the final book, and this movie
fan wishes more time had been set aside for quiet, inventive moments,
such as the shocking murder
of a key character early in the film.
The movie leaves a great deal
of things to the imagination,
such as an enigmatic picture hanging on the wall
of Barton's room, though clearly
fans have had a ball trying to come up with interpretations.
I shared the same concerns as other
fans of the book: This was
such a precious
thing, I felt like I owned it to an extent — how could I trust anyone else to understand it so fully, to feel it so completely?
As with all
such things, the truth is probably somewhere in the middle: Bright is an entertaining - enough high - concept feature with a few glaring holes that
fans of its director, cop - corruption auteur David Ayer, will likely enjoy.
These are the
things audiences have come to expect
of the director, and
such habits have earned him devoted
fans and detractors alike.
The spunky styling is also backed up by some real verve: We're
fans of the punchy, 188 - hp turbocharged four - cylinder, which combines with a responsive CVT (yes, there is
such a
thing) to provide strong mid-range torque.
This can be caused by a number
of things such as low coolant levels, a faulty thermostat, or a failing coolant
fan switch.
