Why can't we buy the best players from smaller teams before they go to another big team?
but the long - term solution is for AFC to get rid of itself of what has now become its biggest liability: a manager that well past his prime that * is ultimately unambituous (
not buying the best players), * ineffective in transfer windows by not paying enough or having enough backups, * passing on players like fabergas & getting kalstrom, * unable to motivate his players up for the big games, * unable to get the best out of his team by putting them in weird lineups, * favoritism to certain players, shuns others (like pod / roz until they lose their skills), * inability / unwillingness to adapt formation for big games,... thank you for the memories wenger: all good things must come to an end.
watching him play players out of position, stick with favourites while better players rot on the bench, subbing uselessly at the 80th minute, not rotating between CL and PL games,
not buying the best players to save a few million........
He can not motivate his team, or he does
not buy the best players.
jaweant: then what are we to make of wenger
not buying any good players?
I was confused for a while why we weren't buying good players a few years ago — then realised we were totally hamstrung by finance and couldn't do it.
Fan please do not let him confuse you with all the players being linked to Arsenal, he's
not buying the good players.
It is even bigger than the World Cup because the teams in it are at a higher level than national teams, who can't buy the best players.»
Not exact matches
And some of the
players to watch out for are the same big guys from 10 or 20 years ago (Microsoft, Oracle, AT&T, etc.) who are the long - entrenched stakeholders and «powers - who - be» in your space —
not because they're great innovators or disruptors, but because: (a) they're increasingly
well - informed about who's doing what very
well (damn those demo days); (b) they're fairly fast followers with great gobs of money; and (c) they have the people, resources, and patience to hang around and keep
buying and trying until they eventually get things right in the long run.
has wenger
bought injury - proof bodies for the
players???... i have to agree that we have a stronger squad than in the previous seasons but its no
better than the other top teams... up to now i still can't get why we had to leave our home and move to the emirates except maybe for the ridiculous ticket prices... the stadium should start paying us back by now
Wenger's policy is the
best way only
not selling your
best players and
buying the
best players is the way forward.
In Wenger's defence is it is hard to
buy players who will
better what he currently has, that he will
not spend for the sake of spending, clearly when it comes to money he has the welfare of the club in his heart.
The storm is coming when you
buy a
player for 42 million you don't play him in his
best position you are crazy.
Guys it's the same old same old Ozil awful and stays on for 90 mins, wenger lat subs and nothing different Mert
not good enough Ozil sell him and
buy a top DM something isn't right with him I would forgive
players if they gave 100 %
not all of them do Man utd are poor and they are above us Everyone knows our problems, wenger did us proud but now it's time for a change, and if you don't want Europa football next year I suggest you make your feelings known at the next few games
Well guess what, we haven't
bought a South American
player since then.
the team nurtures
players in the expense of trophies, we don't upgrade coz it will hinder development of so and so... we don't
buy finished articles and keep waiting for the ones we have to come
good, that's why other teams win trophies and Arsenal is seen as an academy.
it is his fault Bolly from Borehamwood He gets paid in excess of eight million a year to have alternatives when things go bad, to motivate
players when the run of play is against them, to
buy players who are capable and
good enough to
NOT hit the woodwork time and time again, to sell
players who are off form and who fail to deliver on thier promised talent, in effect TO MANAGE the team.
Hopefully his failure to beat Leicester to the EPL title last season, and no Wenger Trophy this season, has enlightened him to the fact that he can't win anything through
buying only bargain
players, youngsters, and the occasional big signing, because he's simply
not good enough with tactics and with managing injuries and contracts.
There are no excuses for a team that has the money and the pull of champions league and the luck of being in London where most
good players prefer to live in the UK
not to
buy any classy
players until the last 4 days of the transfer window.
The Italian club's sporting director Sabatini has made an offer of # 1 million for the loan with an option to
buy set at # 15 million — though Chelsea are
not so keen on the
buy - option, preferring to retain the rights to the
player in case he comes
good in Serie A.
Campbell is
better player than Theo, he run forward and backward to support the midfield, it must be a personal with Wenger.i got the impression Wenger does
not like a threat or someone to challenge him at any cost.There are few
players that should have been sold and use the money to
buy a couple of
players.We lost on Kanye, ibramovitch, Bailey, and a few others, simply refuse to pay market value.
Wenger wants the
good players but because AFC do
not buy them, Wenger gets slated with the
players who are
bought and lacking.
Ive been supporting Arsenal for 65 years to say im dissapointed,
well words fail me Why did we let the window slip by and
not do the business in the begining get in quick and get our
players signed and out as
well but NO we buggered about with the DREAMER for 6 weeks dithering with expensive so called talent and what we get another Frenchman, soon we will be able to say we have the whole french international team here The way to go is to boycott the home games and make it known the fans run the club
not the useless manager or the lackluster board who do
nt know who plays for us and are
not interested in football per say just the money
Buy Kroenke out and let him go as
well
As a team we look very weak, Our midfield have no bite to them as we keep
buying little fancy
players but they are no
good at tackling and getting stuck in, Santi for me this year do
nt want to play maybe he is looking for a move!!!! Jack in in and out of games he is so inconsistanat, Arteta past his
best and needs to be replaced, Wenger needs to look at the time and improve it, Last year we got Ozil this year we got Alexis but we are
not using them to there full potental, Ransey is class but we can keep hoping for is magic to get us out of shit, Giroud for me is a waste of time we need a top top forward he battles away but he is far below the class we need,
Cazorla is far
better than Ozil in my opinion... We wasted 42M to replace our
best player (Cazorla was Arsenal
best player the season before we
bought Ozil)... Don't get me wrong, Ozil is
good but we should have invest that money on a much needed position, maybe a striker (Bitty that the stubborn one didnot get Higuain for less than 30M) or a defender...
Wenger has no tactics, plays his favourite
players over
better players, gives long term contracts to average and injury prone
players, hates strong physical
players, plays
players out of position, always looking for excuse like refrees and saying other teams played more in pre season, does
nt spend money on
players required like if we need strikers he will
buy CAM, waits for other teams to
buy top
players and signs average on deadline day, calls accident when we lose, talks cohesion and mental strength when we beat terrible teams and win mickey mouse trophy like Asia cup and community shield.
This season I don't think that there are any more hiding places or excuses left for Prof. Wenger for
not buying the WC
players needed to help Arsenal achieve victories in all major cups (
well at least the league and another cup, and
not the usual 4th place in the league victory)...
my only hope is wenger to
buy kanté of leicester.this guy is a beast at dm position with a
good technical and physical quality.with him and coq in midfield against barca we can hope for anything special to happen.with finally olivier giroud slowly becoming WC striker, walcott most efficient and campbell who is a revelation this season, the return of alexis we can be dangerous against any defence.our only weak position is a dm position and wenger won't have any excuz this mercato bcoz there are
players available that we can
buy if we want.plz wenger go for at least one of this: kanté, wanyama, w.carvalho, l.bender, krychowiak, biglia, neves, l.gustavo, rabiot... if we try to sign s.roberto he will be a
good addition with great quality.gunner for life!!!
Most of ye probably didn't support arsenal when Wenger was classed as one of the most wanted managers in Europe and was putting it up to Utd and winning trophies every yr things are different now the moving stadium all that less whinging give it a bit of time he is starting to spend and I'm sure he will
buy 1 or 2 in Jan and a few big signings nxt summer and I hope he goes out on a high man gets ridiculed by knobs like ye on a regular basis
players want to play for him big star
players like his style wake up a bit as long as he is in charge the club is in
good hands
Yes, man u
bought some
good players but that is
not enought to give opinion as fact - a fan said other epl teams must fear man u. 1 even said we need a striker that would do for us what suarez did for liverpool and i asked what did he do, did he win anything meaningful for them?
-- consistent injury issue — no signings (when we need them and there are
better players out there than we have in our team / squad)-- no strength in depth (kids, or
not sufficient quality
bought)-- no consistency in performance (motivation)-- tactical nativity and inflexibility —
players played out of position or too Many like minded
players accommodated in same line up.
In all likely hood he will
buy a few
players but they will be
players in the mold of Elneny and Gbariel, OK on their
good days, but
not capable of raising us to the next level.
How does wenger
not see the discontent among us fans, he is hell bent on frustrating the decent paying folks who regularly pay extortionate ticket prices and
not going all out to
buy the
best players straight away to mould into a new team!!
Wenger made the comment about keeping Gazidis on a leash and people assumed it meant
not spending as much, for me it is to stop him from
buying trash and clogging up the team with
players not good enough for AFC, that leash worked
well this year as we didn't panic
buy a Perez.
If I
buy a
player for # 45m, I have done
well, if I listen to you, but spending money in itself is
not a quality.
If only we can cry over the spilled milk, I would have take Higuain from Madrid over Ozil... The season before we
bought Ozil our
best player was Cazorla (AMF) and we were in a desperate need for a striker (still we are) and Higuain was availabe for less than 30M... Ozil is
good (more than
good but
not for Arsenal) but I think it was a panic
buy in the last minutes to pleased the frustrated fans due to lack of actions in that window...
Well we may
not have changed much, but I expect some of our youngsters to fill the gap in
players we did
not buy
He should know Giroud is
not up to it, everyfackinbody else does yet still no outfield players were brought in during the summer if your gonna make a statement like Wenger did by NOT buying any outfielders then you damp well make sure the side you have is up to the ta
not up to it, everyfackinbody else does yet still no outfield

NOT buying any outfielders then you damp
well make sure the side you have is up to the task.
we
buy like onyekuru you say unknown we promote from academy you say we don't spend... pay
player good money you say waste... pay
player low money you say we don't compete in wages..
but a t some point he lost it, and is
not because of his stinginess to
buy players, our core is
good and has been for sometime now, his biggest problem was adaptation, change to the new EPL, his philosophy dating back 20 years does
not work anymore and he knows it, because of this his biggest flaw all others came out to light, lack of rotation of his
players favoring some over others, stubbornness that applies to his transfer policy
buying for the future just as he had 20 more years ahead,
players playing out of their natural positions, ARSENAL FLOPS who knows under other Managers they could have been great, for some reason they were signed in the first place, they must had some talent,
best example is Campbell....
-- He
bought the
players, he can't complain whether they aren't
good enough in attack or defence.
Also, I don't
buy this myth that you can't sign
good players if
not in CL.
I actually agree ama yang haha ok watever he's name is
not worth 65 # million he's nearly 30 I get that side things and unproven in league ya he tears up German league but that league is fadeing every
good player gets
bought by Europe or Munich I think we keep Giroud and go
buy mahrez or zaha either 2 do but I'm getting feeling miki is in for Sanchez and we mite get Evans but that's it I think it's all arsenal fc making fans happy I no we went for ambangyang but did we really pr stunt again just feels that way 55 # tops for me he's worth like nobody wants him u Gota worry with that bad apple maybe but mahrez or zaha for me keep mr Giroud and get Evans I'm like him
good solid experience which we need with kos and mustafi who can be bit mad at times?
Wenger said, «I think we have had that debate for a long time now — «Arsenal does
not buy defensive
players» — but Coquelin has the
best defensive statistics and numbers in Europe.
Arsenal FC didn't
buy a CF so that MUST mean it is Wenger who decided that the
players we have are
good enough.
Some things as Arsenal need to change for sure, but I do
nt think vigorously
buying players is the
best answer because it does
nt guarantee success.
Pogba is picked on because he's our
best and most expensive outfield
player, but Mourinho has primarily played him as a holding midfielder, which I think we can agree isn't what he was
bought to do, and is
not what he's
good at.
We aren't in the
good position we are told we are in and while some will disagree I personally believe the blame lays firmly with Arsene Wenger, if he was doing his job we wouldn't even notice the owner and the board, they are a disgrace to our club but they do
not pick the
players to play or
buy nor coach the team.
(2) somewhat linked to the previous comment in that we never seem to be prepared to hit the ground running with our
best potential lineup come opening day... it's become so common, in recent years, that many fans actually hope we stumble a little in the first couple games just so it forces Wenger to bring in reinforcements... unfortunately this can be problematic, thus one of the most common phrases associated with Wenger, «panic
buy»... this situation is also negatively impacted by the ridiculous policy regarding
players who played in the summer months... right now I'm watching the Super Cup and
not a single
player is unavailable to either manager, including Ronaldo, yet somehow we have a list of
players half a mile long that haven't seen game - time so far this preseason... I can only assume this is a reactionary policy created due to the multitude of injuries this club has faced over the years... just another sign of the fragility that permeates this club
That requires a strong bench with quality on it,
players in their
best positions,
not having horrific injury pools season after season (showing up lack of quality depth) and a manager and other club employees who see they needs the
best players and can find them (
not talking king ransom
buys either).
