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 Tangerines have endeared themselves to everyone and on Tuesday will provide Sunderland with one
of their
most testing home encounters in the whole
of 2010 simply because they aren't like other sides, they've never heard
of the word fear at inside a stadium which has been nothing short
of a fortress for the hosts, and Holloway's men will go their with an
attacking intent and a purpose to score goals, plenty
of them as well.
The 2002 exhibition was promoted as a reflection
of the patriotism and sense
of vulnerability awakened in
most Americans by the 9/11
attacks, even though Tworkov's original
intent was more nuanced and painterly than Mitchell - Innes & Nash indicate.
And it is intensly political and involves all kind
of attacks, conspiracies, and
most importantly — almost no science, as well as ascribing ill -
intent against those who have had a role in developing, or accept, the new paradigm.
