There's no guarantee that Koscielny will still be around, With the old news
of Koscielny's contract - extension negotiations hitting a stumbling block, (which has gone abit too quite for my likings) and with Wenger pushing for another CB, after already signing Rob Holding (who in my opinion is
more than capable
of covering for Mertesacker, who himself wasn't guaranteed
first team football) This May suggest that Koscielny is refusing to renew and therefore be sold, during this transfer window.

but
more importantly it should tell you that wenger no longer has a grasp on the strengths and weaknesses
of his
team, or, indeed, what kind
of football he is trying to play... heard a lot
of people waffling on about the end
of tika tak... we never got there because too many
first team players lack the skills to do that kind
of football... ramsey walcott giroud merteshaker coquelin are not that kind
of player... nor do we rapidly convert defence in to attack as we used to or press
teams in their own half..

Even though Arsenal have just recently signed the young English defender Cohen Bramall and the manager already has two very good
first team options, the position
of left back is one
of the ones that comes up
more than most in the various Arsenal transfer rumours rolling around the
football media.
The Arsenal and England international star Alex Oxlade - Chamberlain may not have had a very good season so far and he still needs to show us a lot
more to secure
more regular
first team football, but after an impressive performance in the centre
of midfield against Sunderland in the FA cup, I reckon he should start against Liverpool at Anfield on Wednesday.
About Coquelin for whom we desperately needed a back up, lets not forget that Le Frog send him on loan cuz he thought the position was covered with FLAMINY, now because
of the injury crisis he was recalled back to the
first team and saved us from debacle, this is just
more evidence that this man is completely out
of touch with reality and needs to go, we are the laughingstock not only
of the EPL but from the world
of football...... last time I say it nicely WENGER get the....
total failure... Can you believe Wenger spent 32 millions on 2 average players (Chambers and Welbeck) and is penny pinching when is sbout real class players?What is in his mind?Pay a fortune in salary for mediocre players live Walcott, Ramsey and Wilshere and have hesitations about increasing Sanchez wages... keeping on books failures like Sanogo... The truth is - I say it for years and years - until the «British core» disapears, we are not going to be succesful.The low quality
of British players is dragging the
team back.Last time Arsenal was a powerhouse NONE
of the
first 11 was British.Wanna see how the British quality looks like in a
football team - look no further than national sides
of England, Scotland, N Ireland, Wales, even Ireland (not British but same style)- all mediocre
teams «able» to be defeated by any
team coming to mind.And you are asking about Chambers?He is in the same mold like Wilshere,Walcott,Ox,Ramsey,Gibs,Jenkinson - mediocre overpriced and overpaid players.The world is full with hungry, ambitious and skilled players living in poverty and dreaming
of moving to the top at any cost or sacrifice (did you see the poor house - if you can call that house, looking
more like an old tent - in which Alexis Sanchez grew up?Or Suarez?)

Joining a club
of arsenal s stature has its ups and downs.There is a requirement
of how our players should perform when on the pitch.The following is a list
of players who were wrong to choose arsenal.Aaron ramsey - Even though he is the most favoured
of all players at the club now.I cant help but think how it would have gone for Him if he decided to search for other greener pastures.He was a clear talented
footballer during his time at cardiff but he hasnt been raised with the discipline at arsenal.You can always see ramseys all round strengths but sadly Its not helping him or the club with his foward moving pleasurr.He is so Over used and its sometimes difficult for him to get used to the rythm
of the game.With time you realise he gets low ib confidence and his engine gets wasted.He needed somebody who would have managed him properly and with care and that person is certainpy not wenger.You would have been better off at Manu mate.Calum chambers - Came us a very talented player from southampton with raw talent.He was very good at
first but wenger found a way to reduce his level
of confidence.His inexperience was left exposed and wenger did nt do anything to resolve that problem and instead He looked for other talented players.Alex oxlade chamberlain - Another very talented player who needed only his skilled sharpened and his character modelled.That and he was ready to become a world beater.But wenger decided to let him run and run like a headless chicken causing him to be often injured and damaging his confidence.Who knows what would have happened to him gad he decided to look for
more greener pasture.He is surely a much better player than this.Theo walcott - Another player who was tipped to have a very bright future.He had it in him.But all he needed was an appropriate manager who would nurture him with discipline and help him with his talent.But on Coming to arsenal he was given Much
more responsiblities putting
more weight on his shoulders on top
of that another player who was recklessly managed with his talent and never coming off age because his character wasnt properly shaped.Mesut ozil - Al right i agree he perfoms well just recently.But imagine all the legendary players he was often compared to during his time at real madrid.On coming to arsenal he found no rotation often overused, suffered many injuries and his confidence dwindled.It is pretty clear arsene does not take any responsibility for players.And when at arsenal you have to be your own manager.You need not rely on your manager otherwise you might continue being the same player for the next many years.That is why each and every player are what they are because
of their own efforts and wenger had nothing to do with it.Van persie was the same player for over 7 years untill he himself decided to change.Wenger only organises and prepares tge
team while the rest is in your court.It is not what so many people make it out to be.Thats why we need to pressure wenger
more than our own players.They are their own self managers and wenger needs to take that responsibility
Roberto Mancini will be looking to give the youngster a taste

players like Ozil always present the fans with a bit
of a conundrum, especially when times are tough... if you look around the sporting world every once in awhile there emerges a player with incredible skill, like Ozil, Matt Sundin or even Jay Cutler, who have a different way about themselves... their movement seemed almost too lackadaisical, so much so that it seemed to suggest indifference or even disinterest on the part
of the player... their posture always appears somewhat mopey and they generally have an unflattering «sour puss» expression on their face... for some their above average skills are enough to keep them squarely in the mix, as their respective
teams try desperately to find a way to get the best out
of them visa vie player acquisitions or the reworking
of tactics... when things go according to planned the fans usually find a way to accept their unique disposition, whereas when things go awry they become easy targets for fans and pundits alike... in the case
of Ozil and Sundin, their successes on the international stage and / or with their former
teams led many to conclude that if we surrounded such talented individuals with players that have those skills that would most likely bring the best
of these players success would surely follow... unfortunately both the Maple Leafs and our club chose to adopt half - measures, as each were being run by corporations who valued profitability over providing the best possible product on the field... for them, they cared
more about shirt sales and season tickets than doing whatever was necessary... this isn't, by any stretch, an attempt to absolve Ozil
of any responsibility for his failures on the pitch... there is no doubt oftentimes his efforts were underwhelming, to say the least, but this club has been inept when it comes to providing this prolific passer with the kind
of players necessary for him to flourish... with our poor man's version
of Benzema up front, the headless chickens in Walcott, the younger Ox and Welbeck occupying wide positions far too often and the fact that Carzola, who provided Ozil with great service and
more freedom to roam, was never truly replaced, the only real skilled outlet on the pitch was Sanchez... remember to be considered a world - class set - up man goals need to be scored and for much
of his time here he has been surrounded by some incredibly inept finishers... in the end, I'm not sure how long he will be in North London, recent sentiments and his present contract situation seem to suggest that he will depart at season's end, but how tragic would it be if once again we didn't put our best foot forward and failed to make those moves that could have brought championship
football back to our once beloved club... so when you think about this uniquely skilled player don't be so quick to shift all the blame on his shoulders because he will not be the
first or the last highly skilled player to find disappointment at the Emirates if we don't rid the club
of those individuals that are truly to blame for our current woes
love your articles galen this just proves the sheer stupidity and arrogance
of our manager what are players like ozil and giroud still doing at arsenal after their
first season ozil should probably be sold back to shalke in a soft league and who knows he might play his best
football and it might help in his national
team form cazorla is a good player but not world class he can not be classified on the same level against players like silva iniesta and the old arsenal fabregas sanchez is also good but he needs to add
more to his game for him to be put on the same level with world beaters like suarez neymar and bale koscienly is also good but he has too many injury troubles coquelin is a class player but he is not world class he is good technically but not a dominant midfielder like schneiderlin and fernandinho as for cech he is there among the best keepers and he is the only positive in this arsenal
team.Needs to work on his distribution though the back four is solid but has alot
of light weights strong and powerful foward might find it easy

team football.

first -
team spot.
Picture this, we don't come out
of the gate firing on all cylinders, Wenger speaks
of how there wasn't enough time for the
first - teamers to build chemistry, several key players aren't even playing because
of Wenger's utterly ridiculous policy regarding players who played in the Confed Cup or the under21s and the boo - birds have returned in full flight... if these things were to happen, which is quite possible considering the Groundhog Day mentality
of this club, how long do you think it will take for Wenger to recant his earlier statements regarding Europa... I would suggest that it's these sorts
of comments from Wenger which are often his undoing... why would any manager worth his weight in salt make such a definitive statement before the season has even started... why would any manager who fashions himself an educated man make such pronouncements before even knowing what his starting 11 will be come Friday, let alone on September 1st... why would any manager who has a tenuous relationship with a great many supporters offer up such a potentially contentious talking point considering how many times his own words have come back to bite him in the ass... I think he does this because he doesn't care what you or I think, in fact he's
more than slightly infuriated by the very idea
of having to answer to the likes
of you and me... that might have been acceptable during his formative years in charge, when the fans were rewarded with an scintillating brand
of football and success felt like a forgone conclusion, but this new Wenger led
team barely resembles that
team of ore... whereas in times past we relished a few words from our seemingly cerebral manager, in recent times those words have been replaced by a myriad
of excuses, a plethora
of infuriating stories about who he could have signed but didn't and what can only be construed as outright fabrications... it's kind
of funny that when we want some answers, like during the whole contract debacle
of last season, we can't get an intelligent word out
of him, but when we just what him to show his managerial acumen through his actions, we can't seem to get him to shut - up... I beg you to prove me wrong Arsene
How else are we supposed to see the predictions
of doom and gloom from the
football pundit and former Gunner after the current Arsenal

Don't get me wrong — I like Pod and, at least on his social media postings, he seemed t have a fantastic attitude — but it pains me that in the end he (and the Bendtners and Gervinhos and Arshavins others pointed to) seemed
more comfortable carping about why he wasn't playing as a center forward and complaining about his lack
of first -
team football opportunities than he was trying to develop the traits and on - field work habits Wenger demanded
of them.
real talk, i think this is a great article, in my hometown there is a club which is in the second division
of my country and some years ago there was a real possibility that we could promote to the
first division but we did nt manage to and now its a bit

football fans do nt seem to agree with right decisions against their club) and we shout if we are losing too, because i do nt support a
