In wenger we trust COYG u spoilt little brats, you muppets ain't even been tested in your arsenal fan career never seen your
club finish lower then fourth every year we play in cl against the
big boys and you
lot act like were in crisis and things are so bad wow I'm beyond belief just can't get my head around the way you
lot act sometimes step back a bit a think a little you twats most
of you in your life time have never seen your team finish lower then fourth yes fûc #ing fourth most
of you don't even no what it's like to be a real fan wen your team are struggling finishing mid table and still saying you love the
club and protect them never in my life have I heard a generation
of arsenal fans critise manager players board everything about our
club wen things our knowere near as bad as you make out to be and could be.
Some fans are mentioning Chambers as a potential DM in important fixtures... The boy just arrived at Arsenal and he is already a
big part
of the squad (3 possible positions)... Just to say that a 19yo is a major piece
of our team, it says a
lot about the ambition and the status
of the
club (and this is a talented player who was not a first team regular at Southampton, but that is not a problem... If he is good he is good).
Winston Reid always been one
of those «
lot's
of potential» players, but he hasn't got a record with a

Whatever it takes could mean a
lot more than we previously thought, though, as the Daily Mail is reporting that Premier League rules on wages and the limit
of how much they can rise from one season to the next will almost certainly force Arsene Wenger to sell at least two
of the
club's other
big earners in order to offer Alexis and Ozil the wages they want.
I personally believe that Wenger didn't push to have the contracts
of Sanchez, Ozil, Ramsey and Ox renewed earlier because he was going to use it as leverage when renegotiating his own deal... so far that tactic has backfired as we know little more about this squad moving forward than we did in May and Wenger clearly misjudged just how important his staying would be to both Sanchez and Ox... I like Lacazette, but I liked him a
lot more 2 years ago at 20 million less... Sead might come good but once again he wasn't a necessity buy, except that he was a free transfer and was signed early... another «wag the dog» tactic employed by the powers that be... as for the rest
of the roster, very little has changed, except that it's way too
big and lacks the cutting edge to take this
club to new heights.

lot more than this one transfer during the window but with veteran Gunners Tomas Rosicky, Mikel Arteta and Mathieu Flamini all set to leave the

this man is so self - absorbed... does he really think that we should feel so honored that he chose to stay with little old us... does he not understand that many
of us would have literally driven him to the ends
of the earth if he promised never to return... has anyone noticed that the only teams he says are interested in him are some
of the
biggest clubs in the world whose managers spend freely, follow through on their promises or are terminated, listen to their fan - bases, have a
lot of strong personalities within their squads, rarely play their top players out
of position, win against their top rivals or suffer the wrath, don't blame the ref after every loss and embrace their former stars... even if his stories had any truth to them, he would last but a cup
of coffee

Arsenal still have more more games to play before we reach the halfway stage

lot of footballing twists and turns to come before someone gets to lift the
big trophy in May, but our attempt to be that
club is looking a
lot better after the reigning champions Leicester City rose from their slumber to inflict a painful defeat on Man City yesterday.
I doubt that a manager is going to be succesfull knowing that he has to build the team from scratch, do nt get me wrong, it will be better with a new manager but the financial backing must be up to the point where we will be forced to spend a
lot due
of us losing the privilege
of being a
big club and i cant see this happening, it will take at least 5 years to rebuild as we have no fondation whatsoever in the team
While you will find a
lot of Arsenal fans ready to bemoan our fate, with the main complaint being that we do not match the ambition and spending power

big Premier League rivals to really compete for the EPL title and the Champions League trophy, a new report by UEFA shows that Arsenal are actually in an elite group and that every
club not in this group are the ones that are really in trouble.
Despite the modern world
of football, especially when dealing with a

(unfortunately banks do nt buy in to we will win the league for the next decade to give out money) from the cub before they lend then shed

clubs putting up there ticket prices to reflect the cost

club has to find a way to make
club grow, and if they do nt have deep pocketed owners then they have to pitch to the banks for a loan, like we did all those years ago an we are just over the worst
of it now we have paid our dues and are now getting back among the
big boys again.

big centre forward not being good enough ever since he joined us from the French
club Montpellier some years ago, a
lot of us and most rival fans think he is pretty good and Giroud feels pretty happy about the credit and respect he gets at
club level.
He may not be the
big name, top quality striker that many Arsenal fans were hoping that Arsene Wenger would bring in to the
club this summer, but with just a day left
of the transfer window, I think we could do a
lot worse than to go for the QPR centre forward Charlie Austin.

lot of names being thrown around... 24, Arsenal Fan, proven PL scorer and I think if he moves to a
big club he's going to play like he has a serious point to prove.
We lack ambition at Arsenal we are the
big club that is desperate for the title more than others but we are not showing hunger in our business, We have a scouting that is very poor as we have wasted a
lot of Money on the wrong Sanchez is the only great player we have bought for decades, Ozil buy was mistake we had carzorla the we wanted a striker, we wssted money on xhaka, Elneny, chambers, welbeck, mustafi and finally in lacazette he lacks height and physicality to thrive in epl you saw yesterday he was suffocated by Chelsea defenders he did not look a threat at all, but hey let's blame Kreonke for paying the highest wage bill in Europe for Deadwoods... pooor management poor Arsenal what do you expect
Big club,
lots of money, great squad, full control
of transfer targets as all board members know F / A about football and 0 pressure to win anything.
