I think that Arsenal will do it because they have so much quality, but maybe they need a season of finishing outside the top four to give the whole club a kick up the backside.
It's difficult to blame Ozil for the difficulties he's faced at Arsenal without looking at the big picture... like the fans, he too was lied to by Wenger... there is no doubt in my mind that he was told by Wenger that he was trying desperately to recreate our earlier success by acquiring players that fit the system he ran when Henry was in his prime... as we know this hasn't happened... in order for Ozl to flourish he needs some speed up front, forwards that can make intelligent runs, a boss in the midfield to compensate for his obvious defensive liabilities and defenders who can transition from defence to offence quickly and efficiently... much like he had in Real and with the German National squad... unfortunately he ended up on a squad that has a striker who plays with his back to goal, very few intelligent runs into the box, minus Sanchez, no one to take pressure off him in the midfield, once Cazorla was injured, average defensive midfielders around him, which simply highlighted his lacking defensive qualities and defenders who lack the necessary cutting edge when it comes to transitional passing... instead of blaming Ozil, which is simply too easy, especially considering his mopey disposition, we should be asking ownership and / or Wenger why they brought him in if they didn't intend on doing what was necessary to get the best from him... can you imagine Ozil playing with the likes of Henry, Viera, Petit and Pires, it would be incredibly to watch and even more difficult to stop... so the only thing different between his experiences in Real and with the German team versus his time at Arsenal are the players around him and we all know who is in charge of making those decisions, the Grinch who stole soccer
OT: My wishes: — Wenger to stop playing Mert ahead of Gab... this is a must — Wenger being ruthless and stop being stubbornness «big wish» — Wenger to change his transfer policy «big wish as well» — Not count on very injury prone players (Wilshere, Walcott, Ox, Welbeck), take them only as a bounce because they would never stay fit... It is a dilemma because they are all quality home grown players, so I can not say «get rid of them all» — Give our smart attacking players (Sanchez, Cazorla, Ozil) what they need, a striker... that is a must — Strengthen the flank with another quality because all the sights now on Sanchez — Get rid of useless team players (Campbell, Flamini, yes they are useless) and replace them with better players (promote or buy good ones)-- Loan Chamber... 16M is too much to ruin
Inter currently sit in ninth place in Serie A, 23 points behind league leaders Juventus, and despite Mancini returning to the club in November, he has failed to inspire much of a transformation at San Siro, but the former Manchester City man believes that he needs a bit of time to mould the team to title - challenging quality.
For me Cazorla is much better No. 10 Than Ozil, but he is very underrated and ozil is highly overrated for me... For all of those ozil fans who says that a quality striker is just he need is nothing more than a stupid or biased excuse for me...
But one thing i will like to add is the lack of quality in the middle of the park because our much loved almighty Lord Santi as i love calling him is without doubt going to be out for a while and might not perform close to the level he is capable of, so what i think we need is quality to pair with either Xhaka / Coquelin in a young and talented midfieder called Alexandre Golovin (the CSKA MOSCOW and RUSSIAN INTERNATIONAL) as i think he is worthy to put on the Arsenal jersey.

But the weeks between now and then may also give the Gunners a stark reminder of how much we need some battling qualities in central midfield.
The sad truth is that we are just a couple of players away from having a very strong starting 11... Wenger's fixation with Walcott and mertesakher as starting players remains a mystery to me... neither have the quality of a top team like arsenal... I am not a giroud hater but he is still too inconsistent and the big question is whether welbeck can push him in a way Walcott won't... Campbell has done well and has moved ahead of Walcott and, ox for sure but there is still a question about how much more he can improve... Elneny is certainly an upgrade over arteta and flamini whether he will make it I don't know just hope that he does but arguably wenger could have been more ambitious... That leaves a top quality striking option... There is no doubt that wenger deluded himself over the summer and that needs to be corrected ASAP... Draxler dybala aube and even griezman with a big enough big could have been prized in summer... january not a good time for this but it is not difficult to find better options than Walcott ox or Campbell... All a question of whether wenger wants to win EPL on his terms or wants to win this for the club

He shouldn't be allowed to leave though he is still very replaceable.He really needs to improve big time because he's good but usually very frustrating in his style of play.When you look at his qualities you feel he can do far more and can even be the best RB in the world based on the qualities he possesses.He should be doing far better and should rather focus on improving than this Barca talk.He's not even the finished article yet and still needs to learn so much and he thinks he can do very well at Barca?
His constant undermining of talented players by using them incorrectly, playing out of position, subbing or not even picking them, buying players for other positions we need less keenly than the gaping holes everywhere we look, (CDM esp and some quality CB's to step in immediately) has bemused and undermined much of our whole squad.
This is an incredibly difficult question to answer for a variety of reasons, most importantly because over the years our once vaunted «beautiful» style of play has become a shadow of it's former self, only to be replaced by a less than stellar «plug and play» mentality where players play out of position and adjustments / substitutions are rarely forthcoming before the 75th minute... if you look at our current players, very few would make sense in the traditional Wengerian system... at present, we don't have the personnel to move the ball quickly from deep - lying position, efficient one touch midfielders that can make the necessary through balls or the disciplined and pacey forwards to stretch defences into wide positions, without the aid of the backs coming up into the final 3rd, so that we can attack the defensive lanes in the same clinical fashion we did years ago... on this current squad, we have only 1 central defender on staf, Mustafi, who seems to have any prowess in the offensive zone or who can even pass two zones through so that we can advance play quickly out of our own end (I have seen some inklings that suggest Holding might have some offensive qualities but too early to tell)... unfortunately Mustafi has a tendency to get himself in trouble when he gets overly aggressive on the ball... from our backs out wide, we've seen pace from the likes of Bellerin and Gibbs and the spirited albeit offensively stunted play of Monreal, but none of these players possess the skill - set required in the offensive zone for the new Wenger scheme which requires deft touches, timely runs to the baseline and consistent crossing, especially when Giroud was playing and his ratio of scored goals per clear chances was relatively low (better last year though)... obviously I like Bellerin's future prospects, as you can't teach pace, but I do worry that he regressed last season, which was obvious to Wenger because there was no way he would have used Ox as the right side wing - back so often knowing that Barcelona could come calling in the off - season, if he thought otherwise... as for our midfielders, not a single one, minus the more confident Xhaka I watched played for the Swiss national team a couple years ago, who truly makes sense under the traditional Wenger model... Ramsey holds onto the ball too long, gives the ball away cheaply far too often and abandons his defensive responsibilities on a regular basis (doesn't score enough recently to justify): that being said, I've always thought he does possess a little something special, unfortunately he thinks so too... Xhaka is a little too slow to ever boss the midfield and he tends to telegraph his one true strength, his long ball play: although I must admit he did get a bit better during some points in the latter part of last season... it always made me wonder why whenever he played with Coq Wenger always seemed to play Francis in a more advanced role on the pitch... as for Coq, he is way too reckless at the wrong times and has exhibited little offensive prowess yet finds himself in and around the box far too often... let's face it Wenger was ready to throw him in the trash heap when injuries forced him to use Francis and then he had the nerve to act like this was all part of a bigger Wenger constructed plan... he like Ramsey, Xhaka and Elneny don't offer the skills necessary to satisfy the quick transitory nature of our old offensive scheme or the stout defensive mindset needed to protect the defensive zone so that our offensive players can remain aggressive in the final third... on the front end, we have Ozil, a player of immense skill but stunted by his physical demeanor that tends to offend, the fact that he's been played out of position far too many times since arriving and that the players in front of him, minus Sanchez, make little to no sense considering what he has to offer (especially Giroud); just think about the quick counter-attack offence in Real or the space and protection he receives in the German National team's midfield, where teams couldn't afford to focus too heavily on one individual... this player was a passing «specialist» long before he arrived in North London, so only an arrogant or ignorant individual would try to reinvent the wheel and / or not surround such a talent with the necessary components... in regards to Ox, Walcott and Welbeck, although they all possess serious talents I see them in large part as headless chickens who are on the injury table too much, lack the necessary first - touch and / or lack the finishing flair to warrant their inclusion in a regular starting eleven; I would say that, of the 3, Ox showed the most upside once we went to a back 3, but even he became a bit too consumed by his pending contract talks before the season ended and that concerned me a bit... if I had to choose one of those 3 players to stay on it would be Ox due to his potential as a plausible alternative to Bellerin in that wing - back position should we continue to use that formation... in Sanchez, we get one of the most committed skill players we've seen on this squad for some years but that could all change soon, if it hasn't already of course... strangely enough, even he doesn't make sense given the constructs of the original Wenger offensive model because he holds onto the ball too long and he will give the ball up a little too often in the offensive zone... a fact that is largely forgotten due to his infectious energy and the fact that the numbers he has achieved seem to justify the means... finally, and in many ways most crucially, Giroud, there is nothing about this team or the offensive system that Wenger has traditionally employed that would even suggest such a player would make sense as a starter... too slow, too inefficient and way too easily dispossessed... once again, I think he has some special skills and, at times, has showed some world - class qualities but he's lack of mobility is an albatross around the necks of our offence... so when you ask who would be our best starting 11, I don't have a clue because of the 5 or 6 players that truly deserve a place in this side, 1 just arrived, 3 aren't under contract beyond 2018 and the other was just sold to Juve... man, this is theraputic because following this team is like an addiction to heroin without the benefits
The buying needs to be of much higher quality players so that the Arsenal youngsters have as much trouble getting past the incumbents as in the case at those two clubs.
«I felt that the 33 shots on goal against Manchester United and the chances we missed had a little impact there, but we need to continue focusing on the quality of our game and not to focus too much on the fact that we are not ruthless at the moment.
Wenger had the whole summer to buy a CB and CDM and failed to do so, why do you think he will act in the winter window when it is so much harder to get players as clubs will not let them go.we will buy a CB and CDM but not of the quality we so badly need and also because Wenger will not pay over the odds.expect two unproven youngsters in.
Moreover, the Gunners are not need of much additions save a top quality left back and a top quality right winger as Jack Wilshere alone may not be able to cope with playing there during the entire season.
As much as this story is nonsense but Wenger is to blame for all of what's going on at Arsenal, last season he only signed a goalkeeper and this season it's only Xhaka who's a reputable player don't even mention Holding and Asano, we need quality experienced players but as long as the specialist in failure is there we'll never get what we need!!
Rocky Diaby Poldi Flamini and if Santi, at least three of them should be gone and two are aging, tall technical robust and of leadership quality is much needed.
Wilshere needs another manager to improve... I have a lot of time for him but he stands around too much waiting for ball whereas before he used to hunt for the ball... but whatever happens we are 6 players short of a quality team... years of penny pinching and over indulging crap players by a clueless manager who is a legend in his own mind... people go on about guardiolas spending in the summer but the team we are now watching play the best football in epl history only has 2 new additions from last year Emerson and walker... I guess mendy would start if fit... we have 2 new players too but we are further behind than ever!!
> They filledmany of their needs with quality players and will be a better team this year, but they don't have much depth.
It is frustrating because instead of investing in a top quality player, Wenger instead will try to justify bringing back someone already on the books and trying to play them off as a much needed boost for the team.
No, he needs to get shipped out 35mln pounds is too good to turn down and i hope Wenger has some replacement lined up already — for Chambers, Ozil and Sanchez will be very stupid to let 3 of them leave for free — get Mahrez and Lemar and CB van Dijk we will be awesome — and Arsenal as a whole need to change i would prefer how Bercel; ona and Madrid setup work too much power at Arsenal for one person to decide everything — that why Spanish teams have been exchange trophies European Cup because of good quality recruitment whether the coach like or not you do nt need a Masters in Economics to be good manager — Zidane has shown that!!
We have good defenders like boss, Gabriel, per, calum, debuchy and Monreal.we can have one of the best defences now with the arrival of cech cech brings much needed experience and quality that we have been lacking in goal.great signing
Khedira won the Champions League in May and then played a prominent role in Germany's World Cup triumph over the summer and is therefore clearly a quality performer and perhaps the ideal man to balance out the heaps of midfield creativity at Arsenal with some much needed defensive nous.
Time for some brutal honesty... this team, as it stands, is in no better position to compete next season than they were 12 months ago, minus the fact that some fans have been easily snowed by the acquisition of Lacazette, the free transfer LB and the release of Sanogo... if you look at the facts carefully you will see a team that still has far more questions than answers... to better show what I mean by this statement I will briefly discuss the current state of affairs on a position - by - position basis... in goal we have 4 potential candidates, but in reality we have only 1 option with any real future and somehow he's the only one we have actively tried to get rid of for years because he and his father were a little too involved on social media and he got caught smoking (funny how people still defend Wiltshire under the same and far worse circumstances)... you would think we would want to keep any goaltender that Juventus had interest in, as they seem to have a pretty good history when it comes to that position... as far as the defenders on our current roster there are only a few individuals whom have the skill and / or youth worthy of our time and / or investment, as such we should get rid of anyone who doesn't meet those simple requirements, which means we should get rid of DeBouchy, Gibbs, Gabriel, Mertz and loan out Chambers to see if last seasons foray with Middlesborough was an anomaly or a prediction of things to come... some fans have lamented wildly about the return of Mertz to the starting lineup due to his FA Cup performance but these sort of pie in the sky meanderings are indicative of what's wrong with this club and it's wishy - washy fan - base... in addition to these moves the club should aggressively pursue the acquisition of dominant and mobile CB to stabilize an all too fragile defensive group that has self - destructed on numerous occasions over the past 5 seasons... moving forward and building on our need to re-establish our once dominant presence throughout the middle of the park we need to target a CDM then do whatever it takes to get that player into the fold without any of the usual nickel and diming we have become famous for (this kind of ruthless haggling has cost us numerous special players and certainly can't help make the player in question feel good about the way their future potential employer feels about them)... in order for us to become dominant again we need to be strong up the middle again from Goalkeeper to CB to DM to ACM to striker, like we did in our most glorious years before and during Wenger's reign... with this in mind, if we want Ozil to be that dominant attacking midfielder we can't keep leaving him exposed to constant ridicule about his lack of defensive prowess and provide him with the proper players in the final third... he was never a good defensive player in Real or with the German National squad and they certainly didn't suffer as a result of his presence on the pitch... as for the rest of the midfield the blame falls squarely in the hands of Wenger and Gazidis, the fact that Ramsey, Ox, Sanchez and even Ozil were allowed to regularly start when none of the aforementioned had more than a year left under contract is criminal for a club of this size and financial might... the fact that we could find money for Walcott and Xhaka, who weren't even guaranteed starters, means that our whole business model needs a complete overhaul... for me it's time to get rid of some serious deadweight, even if it means selling them below what you believe their market value is just to simply right this ship and change the stagnant culture that currently exists... this means saying goodbye to Wiltshire, Elneny, Carzola, Walcott and Ramsey... everyone, minus Elneny, have spent just as much time on the training table as on the field of play, which would be manageable if they weren't so inconsistent from a performance standpoint (excluding Carzola, who is like the recent version of Rosicky — too bad, both will be deeply missed)... in their places we need to bring in some proven performers with no history of injuries... up front, although I do like the possibilities that a player like Lacazette presents, the fact that we had to wait so many years to acquire some true quality at the striker position falls once again squarely at the feet of Wenger... this issue highlights the ultimate scam being perpetrated by this club since the arrival of Kroenke: pretend your a small market club when it comes to making purchases but milk your fans like a big market club when it comes to ticket prices and merchandising... I believe the reason why Wenger hasn't pursued someone of Henry's quality, minus a fairly inexpensive RVP, was that he knew that they would demand players of a similar ilk to be brought on board and that wasn't possible when the business model was that of a «selling» club... does it really make sense that we could only make a cheeky bid for Suarez, or that we couldn't get Higuain over the line when he was being offered up for half the price he eventually went to Juve for, or that we've only paid any interest to strikers who were clearly not going to press their current teams to let them go to Arsenal like Benzema or Cavani... just part of the facade that finally came crashing down when Sanchez finally called their bluff... the fact remains that no one wants to win more than Sanchez, including Wenger, and although I don't agree with everything that he has done off the field, I would much rather have Alexis front and center than a manager who has clearly bought into the Kroenke model in large part due to the fact that his enormous ego suggests that only he could accomplish great things without breaking the bank... unfortunately that isn't possible anymore as the game has changed quite dramatically in the last 15 years, which has left a largely complacent and complicit Wenger on the outside looking in... so don't blame those players who demanded more and were left wanting... don't blame those fans who have tried desperately to raise awareness for several years when cracks began to appear... place the blame at the feet of those who were well aware all along of the potential pitfalls of just such a plan but continued to follow it even when it was no longer a financial necessity, like it ever really was...
This draft class is skimp of any quality QB's that can fill Ryan's cleats and we'd be wasting a draft pick for some much needed improvements elsewhere..
Jenkinson also offer us height and physicality, a much needed qualities especially against likes of Stoke, West Ham West Brom etc playing away.
Cavani wouldn't be a waist of money he is everything we need in a st great in posession, quality finisher with head and feet and he has the best def work rate in Europe of any strikers (squawka) 38m would be reasonable 55m is too much for any player who isn't elite at there position in my opinion
Pairing defensive solidity with technical quality on the ball, he'll arguably be a perfect fit for Guardiola's style of play, while he'll add much - needed depth in the backline as he will undoubtedly hope to displace either Stones or Otamendi in the starting line - up.
We need to get the best out of him, because there aren't much players of his quality.
Despite much speculation nothing has happened yet in the transfer window, but we still need a couple of quality players to give a better balance to the squad.
United are also in danger of slipping way down — I remember a comment a few weeks ago pointing to a link that basically concluded that if United drop out of Europe, their income would be affected so much that their spending power will be reduced below the level required to attract the quality they need to get them back up.
I think we need spain players with qualities, like Carzola for example... A player of Carzola's qualities can easily catch up with our game not like Olivier Giroud that is taking a lot of time to adapt to the premier league game, so if i should select the kind of players we should be having i'll go for 2 strikers which are Roberto Soldado of Valencia and Falcao who is out of our limit cos there're a lot of clubs on him in which we know Arsene wenger is not the type of Man that compete when it comes to buying quality players so what i suggest is that Mr wenger should go to Spain and pack as much as he can pack into the squad and let them all play Spain type of football similar to barcelona's style of play which everyone knows...
Leeds could use someone of his quality to give some much - needed support to Wood.
For a transfer fee of # 16million, the Mexican hitman will add much - needed quality and quantity up front.
This may mean taking a hit on a couple of players but as it appears that there won't be a high level of investment from the owner then we need to free up as much of the wage budget as possible and allocate that money to quality players who will improve the side.
For those of you who have watched Mesut Özil, you will not need to see much more in order to be convinced of his quality.
@Taygoon, I do nt agree mate, Toure could be our best CDM if he is allowed to take the challenge.Song would take a while to level Toure on that job, as for Deni, he far much better on his attacking quality considering that fact that he is a CDM but to hold on defense, he wont be better than Toure.And as I said, CDM's primary job is to defend but shud be able to attack when needed, while Deni has got a stronger attackin quality than defence.Fortunately, he has made a huge improvemnt on his defence quality lately.So this is also what I wanted to tell GiBBS: This is why we need Toure, cos he is much stronger & more experienced on defence than any of those lads.I really like ur line up but as i said, AW will make our saturday's 1st line - up, as the same as next tuesday's line - up.
I am with you on that Pablo, in theory we should have 75 — 80 mill to spend, I wouldn't put Zabaletta in the 2 or 3 quality players, he is decent offensively but plays in a team that rarely has to defend, Moses looks decent doing that at Chelsea, all too often Byram has been exposed by not having any defensive assistance if we sign him will be interesting to see how he is defensively because he will be tested in our team, Batshuayi would be a quality addition but he is still only a reserve for Chelski and I don't think he could do what Costa has for them or for us, imo we would still need another striker to lead the line, maybe Josh King if the rumours are true, what hasn't been mentioned too much is the left wing slots, none of ours are particulary great most of them seem to prefer the right side, if we don't go for Nolito maybe have a punt on Grosicki from Hull, we were interested in him previously and he is a very quick player that can create and score goals.
