Yes, they all got it wrong at first, too, but the amount of coverage and outrage from readers not directly linked to the Direct Market Wednesday Crowd is instructive, and
a nice sign of hope for our industry.
WIth DLo and Rondae going into their last years
of their rookie deals and looking for a payday after next season I
hope both up their game this offseason and have breakout seasons because with Lin ($ 12.5 M) and Carroll ($ 15.8 M) likely gone after next season we actually may have room to
sign both to pretty
nice deals should they earn it
In fact they are going to0 have a
nice wedgeof cash to add to their transfer budget for the January transfer window and that is likely to be bad news for the Gunners as we
hope to complete a few good
signings of our own and catch the current league leaders in the second half
of the season.
If he does, though, I really
hope it is not our first or only
signing of the month, because I really want to see the Frenchman seal a deal
nice and early.
Nice article... I used to be one
of those staunch Wenger fans through the years... I used to believe he is superior than Sir Alex, because with almost nothing to spend and playing with kids, he managed to keep us up there every year... I was really caught up with that half season wonder we used to show... In the summer 2013, him or the board (I don't recall) came out and said we are much stable financially and now we can fight with the biggest bullies, I got my
hopes high, I thought we are definitely
signing a top striker and DM, that what we need... What happened, only hours before the window closed we managed to
sign a top AMF (remember we have our best player for the season 2012 - 2013 was AMF, Cazorla if you remember), I was really depressed seen Giroud leading the line every match... then comes winter window, and we were right there top
of the table... My friend send me a poster
of an elephant on a tree, and on the bottom
of it «no one knows how it got there but everybody knows how it will get down»... I told my friend that we are only one decent striker far from the gold... and what happened, we
signed an old injured DM on loan... That for me was a completely arrogance and stubbornness cost us the league title... There I completely lost the plot with Wenger... I wish yesterday I was with those who raised that banner... I would write in my banner «Enough talks and philosophy, we need results»
I
signed off with my friend on somewhat
of a challenging day with three little ones, «I
hope this helps, I have to jet to Mom and Tot class to play with fingerprints and be
nice to moms.
