If you were looking for a sign of whether all the confidence among us Arsenal fans and the nice things (for a change)
said about us in the football media at the minute are an accurate depiction of where the current crop of Gunners
stands when compared to our main rivals for the Premier
League, including the dreaded Jose Mourinho and his expensively assembled Chelsea team, then you should be encouraged by the words of Arsene Wenger.
Say what you want about Van Gaal but they are in better shape to win the
league than us as it
stands and if he does that will signal a new low for Wenger and it actually hurts me to see the manager of the greatest team this

stand by what i

league the difference is wenger does everything - alot more things than klopp, klopp covers less bases but the bases he does cover he tends to excel in
Commercially and fan based size we are a top club, but in recent history our success has diminished our

I have been reading comments of fans on here, especially those who have chosen to appreciate the average in ability that a striker like giroud possess, my question for ya all is, when did arsenal become a team so low on profile to sing praise of a striker who no one can rank among the top 3 striker in the
league, I have seen an arsenal team with a striking force with players like, anelka, Wright, Henry, v persie, no one can rank giroud or whatever his name is in the category of my mentioned strikers.we all have got to face it, giroud is not good enough to be leading the attack of a team dreaming of winning the
league, and Henry is right
saying arsenal can't win the
league with giroud as our striker,,, check this out, man u won
league titles with strikers like Rooney, van nisteroy, v persie, man city won with aguero, Chelsea with drogba and now Costa, giroud
stand no chance against any of those.let's stop appreciating mediocrity, wenger should get us a good striker as giroud is damn too average for arsenal
Walking out on a cup final early is poor
saying the things after is poor we have had the most consistancy of any pl club for 20 years it goes bad we lose and we show no honor in defeat i never mentioned wenger i mentioned the lack of support in a cup final was sad and by walking out it showed we've been spoiled city did nt leave the semi early last year when we beat em they did nt leave early wehen they lost in
league one and i cant
stand city im arsenal through and through we won a cup last year and the year before were in another cup final and tempemental fans leave early even though it takes alot to get to a cup final maybe you need to lose more to lose respectable its hard it sucks but its a cup final bigger than the management our opinions for a day its about how you show you solidarity as a club win or lose every other club in england would of taken our spot in a heartbeat if they could of and we lea e early that shows spoilage and it was embarrassing to see we need to be stronger as supporters newcastle does nt like ashley yet they still show up and when was the last time they won a cup?
As it
stands, this squad is fairly well positioned to compete for the Wenger Cup and make a deep run in the Europa, if and only if we play first stringers in Europe and use the bench for the
League and FA Cups... that being
said, and based on the fragility of the manager and the team in recent campaigns, it's more likely that Wenger will focus on a top 4 finish and the FA Cup... while the reasons for such an approach may appear logical, it would confirm a rather disturbing trend and appear counter intuitive for any team which claims to have higher aspirations... I feel that Wenger simply can't afford to put all his eggs in the Europa basket because if he fails the potential backlash could cripple any top 4 chances due to the aforementioned fragile psyche that tends to rear it's ugly head like our own personal groundhog day each and every February... furthermore, can you even imagine Wenger bringing in the necessary recruits to adequately supply top quality lineups in a Thursday / Sunday dominated schedule; based on everything I've seen in recent years, I can't see that happening... in fact, mark my words, it's more likely that we see Lacazette playing out wide in Alexis's position with Giroud at striker, than we see Wenger make the necessary moves to right this ship... god, I hope I'm wrong but is it really that far - fetched considering what we've witnessed for past several years

stand by what I

I can be frustrating at times because I write what I want and I wanted to highlight that 1) the game isn't just about pace and desire as Wenger
says 2) that the media needs to
stand up to these managers because it infantilizes us fans and robs us of seeing games more tactically and 3) because Arsenal are a deeply flawed team, managed by a guy who used to be knows for fluid passing and movement, but which has recently dried up to the point that Arsenal can't even pass the ball around the worst defensive team in the
