It feels like there's a lot of joy out there, and that's when its dangerous for owners / managers etc, once again you take the joy of supporting a club fans will get excited again, they pay for their tickets, buy their shirts, tune in to contribute to a business and feel mighty proud of that as Gazidis suggests everyone should, they do it because they want the fun of supporting the club they love and not knowing what is going to
happen over the course of a season, all they know is that their club is trying to be as successful as possible.
Just a few things to consider
that happened over the course of the season.

In the midfield, (including RWB & LWB) we have a whole bunch
of tweeners... none offer the full package, none make sense in our manager's current favourite formation, except for Sead on the left and Ox on the right, and all
of them have never shown any consistency for more than a heartbeat... Sead, who I'm including in this category because
of our present formation, looks like a positive addition, minus his occasional brain farts, but I would rather see what he could do in a back 4 before making my mind up... Ox, who has never played better, which isn't saying much considering his largely underwhelming play in previous
seasons, seems to have found a home in this new formation; unfortunately, can we really expect this oft - injured player to handle the taxing duties that come with said position
over the long haul, not to mention, it looks like he has no intention
of staying... Ramsey has relied on the empathy that stems from his gruesome injury years ago and the excitement that was generated a few years back when he finally seemed to put in altogether, but on the whole he has been a big disappointment (neither he nor the Ox have scored enough to warrant a regular spot)... Wiltshire should be put on a weekly contract then played until he suffers his first injury, if and when that occurs he should be shipped - out and no one should very be allowed to say his name on club grounds ever again... Elnehy & Coq are average players who couldn't make any
of the top 7 teams currently in the EPL... both have showed some great energy on the pitch, but neither are top quality and no good team can afford to have that many average players on their bench playing the same position, especially with Coq's injury history / discipline concerns and Elheny's headless chicken tendencies... as for Xhaka, his tenure here so far has been incredibly underwhelming... we know he has some skills to provide the long ball but his defensive work is piss poor and he gives the ball away too cheaply and far too often... finally, the enigma himself, Ozil, so much skill with his left foot but his presence has been more frustrating than uplifting... in many respects his failure has been directly related to the failure
of this club to provide him with the necessary players up front, minus Sanchez
of course, and unless something drastic
happens very soon his legacy will be largely a negative one (much like Wenger's)
Would love for that to
happen John but I believe it's a bit too soon for him to take
over at this time.We need an experienced Manager / Coach that is able to hit the ground running (that's providing
of course Wenger is not here next
season).
Great assessment but for it to
happen more so
over the
course of the
season: 1) Sanchez & Walcott must continue to score 1st and if not assist as they do at the moment 2) Özil has to be consistent & help our offense flow continuously 3) Gabriel & Bellerin must continue to progress the way they do 4) Ox has to found some end product & be more strong defensively 5) Cech has to keep pulling those saves 6) Coquelin not getting injured + Ramsey & Cazorla getting a couple 7) Wenger's getting his tactics & subs close to on point albeit a few occasions
I guess that the future
of Arsene Wenger as the manager
of Arsenal could depend on what
happens with the Gunners on the pitch
over the
course of the current
season, although I am not sure if winning the Premier League title or another big trophy would make him more or less likely to stay.
Am i dreaming it seems like we've been here before, oh yeah thats right it
happened last
season and the
season before that... Oh wait guys but there is hope, if i remember corectly all we have to do is wait for any serious potential threats to us retaining the Fa cup for a third time to get eliminated by lower league opponents or
of course eliminate themselves by not taking this competition too seriously by fielding their second team and laugh our way to the final where we'll probably beat a sub par premier league team and repeat it all
over again next year you know when Wenger fails to address the squad depth, the injuries mount up and are out
of the champions league and title run ins by march..
You never really know what will
happen in football,
of course, but just like with the decisions
of officials there is a theory that all sorts
of things that are seen as good or bad luck tend to even themselves up
over the
course of a
season.
If he is to evolve into DLP as well who can spread the play efficiently and set the tempo in our play that was never going to
happen over the
course of half a
season.
of course no team wants to lose but I can guarantee you that the reaction by the Chelski fans after today's results are nowhere near what would have occurred if we shit the bed on opening day... the difference is they have tasted EPL success on more than one occasion recently, they have won the Champions League and they have done it with 3 different managers in the last 12 years with a similar, if not smaller, wage bill than us... in comparison, we have been experiencing our own personal Groundhog Day with nothing to show for it but a few silvery trinkets that would barely wet the appetite
of a world - class club... so it's time for Wenger to stop gloating
over our week one escape act and make some substantial moves before this window closes or I fear that things will take a horrible turn when the inevitable
happens... living on a knife's edge is no way to go through a full
season of football and regardless
of what side
of the argument you fall on, you could feel high levels
of toxicity in the air and that was friggin week one... I would much rather someone tried their best and failed, than took half - measures and hoped for the best
Of course we will hear the same old cliche about luck evening itself out
over the
season but I am not so sure, especially when you consider what
happened when we faced Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
That didn't just
happen overnight, though, as his value steadily grew
over the
course of the
season.
A lot can still
happen over the
course of the current
season, as we are still some way off the halfway stage and we have seen many times in the pst that things can change quickly in football.
«It's natural
over the
course of a long
season to have a dip in form and unfortunately it
happened against Roma.
