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

like the instinct of our mind and body and i actually like this comment of wilshere he said that read and accepted the criticism that he should pass more and faster so he did think about corrections in his play but told us the truth about the matter that he almos instinctively wants to run at the defenders thats his football and his «character» of play, i like his honest answer and i think that fans shouldn't talk about private things of players if they wants to spend time in twitter, i think we should respect that and not criticise it cause maybe it helps him relax, thats my opinion on the matter ^ ^

wenger is a legend in his own mind so other peoples opinions... fans, ex players, journalists, etc... have no bearing on his greatness or the righteousness of his own decisions... from end of last season it was clear we needed two quality attacking options to put up a serious challenge (getting rid of walcott and campbell or ox and bringing in a serious upgrade over giroud) instead he brought in another midfield option (having done the same in the winter window) which only makes sense in his own delusional world rather than the reality of facing up to serious and strengthening competitors and which defines the job at hand....

Arsenal personnel are too simple minded and i think this stems from the personality of the manager, i strongly doubt the players felt the emotion of s lost of two points, compared to that of the fans, we need personnels to be benched and shown that they have to work for their space, but guess what we do not have that luxury for some players and position, thats why our captain felt like a point was ok, thats why wilshere feel there is no need to track back, the whole sense of responsibility for ones action is not there and all the manager does is pat them on the back and say we will get them the next time.

Mind you, Southampton lost 8 key players plus a manager in the transfer window, they now sit fourth, 3 pts ahead of us.We can no longer use injuries as an excuse because we have always had them, and if wenger was a smart manager, he would have addressed this problem by having better squad depth, but instead he chose to send a defender out on loan despite being short in numbers at the back, foolishly chose not to sign a defender despite an array of good defenders on show at the world cup.So now who is to blame?I guess it's anyone or anything but Wenger.

Although Wilshere has not nailed down a regular position in his career so far, playing both as an attacking midfielder, either centrally or on either flank, as well as a more defensive - minded player, it appears that he wants to work on becoming more of a deep - lying ball player in the Alonso or Pirlo mould.

There are so many issues that the memory fades from many of them, however I always thought the Suarez debarcle was one of the worst, Regardless of if Suarez was an «Arsenal Player» or not noone can doubt that he would have scores all of the goals that welbeck, Walcott and Giroud have missed and scored a number on top of that had he played for the AFC, the problem came with the desultory bid of $ 6 million plus a pound, this was always going to get right up the liverpool owners nose and was an insult from the offset in my mind this was done deliberately by Wenger and the board in order to say to the AFC fans that «well we tried to get him but....»

Ive said it before and Ill say it again we have NO real Midfield muscle, we are not intimidating on the pitch we have no real «Master and Commander» we have no Viera, in days gone by you knew that if you clobbered an Arsenal player you would get clobbered at some time by one of ours, I mean cmon we are talking about players like Welback who to my mind is absolute rubbish and was a total waste of 16million, Yesterday was TOTALLY UNEXECTABLE BOTH FROM THE PLAYERS AND THE players like Welback who to my mind is absolute rubbish and was a total waste of 16million, Yesterday was TOTALLY UNEXECTABLE BOTH FROM THE PLAYERS AND THE PLAYERS AND THE MANAGER

with his attitude as if we have to be his servant, get back to Chilie and get those life values back, he is a football player, but a man first, and as a player and man, his all attitude sucks, i don't know why wenger kept him and take that shit, means we have to take it... I told yo before, get his ass on training camp, ruining all day, shut him up, keep him out of the squad, not even in bench to bring his laim superior attitude... All money he is making, he should think of Chilie street and reality for kids he was once... He is in a great city, a club that won in this league and would be in CL as every year without this type of laim ways... So, of course no one wants him around during that ceremony, not even in the room... Get real sanchez, you came from misery, benched for years by gardiola too, sell out, poor minded..

Still, its also worth noting Bale's age and recent lack of form and injury problems, which could be playing on their minds as they ponder whether or not to spend what would be a club - record fee on the player.

Instead, Wenger sent on attacking minded players, partially because he probably kept in mind that «attack is the best form of defense», and also partially because of complacency and the want to give some players a run out.

So bearing in mind nearly all the whining on here involves the alleged lack of quality in nearly every other position on the pitch other than those occupied by AR / MO (LW / ST / CDM / LB / GK / CB etc) your idea to improve the team would be to sell Ramsey and / or Ozil and buy Fabregas, a player who f**ked off when we needed him and came crawling back expecting royal treatment after his Barca love affair went tits up.

I despise having Tyler Wade on the roster (nothing against him, he's just not an MLB player in my mind) but plenty of guys tear up AAA pitching and do nothing.

In the midfield, (including RWB & LWB) we have a whole bunch of tweeners... none offer the full package, none make sense in our manager's current favourite formation, except for Sead on the left and Ox on the right, and all of them have never shown any consistency for more than a heartbeat... Sead, who I'm including in this category because of our present formation, looks like a positive addition, minus his occasional brain farts, but I would rather see what he could do in a back 4 before making my mind up... Ox, who has never played better, which isn't saying much considering his largely underwhelming play in previous seasons, seems to have found a home in this new formation; unfortunately, can we really expect this oft - injured player to handle the taxing duties that come with said position over the long haul, not to mention, it looks like he has no intention of staying... Ramsey has relied on the empathy that stems from his gruesome injury years ago and the excitement that was generated a few years back when he finally seemed to put in altogether, but on the whole he has been a big disappointment (neither he nor the Ox have scored enough to warrant a regular spot)... Wiltshire should be put on a weekly contract then played until he suffers his first injury, if and when that occurs he should be shipped - out and no one should very be allowed to say his name on club grounds ever again... Elnehy & Coq are average players who couldn't make any of the top 7 teams currently in the EPL... both have showed some great energy on the pitch, but neither are top quality and no good team can afford to have that many average players on their bench playing the same position, especially with Coq's injury history / discipline concerns and Elheny's headless chicken tendencies... as for Xhaka, his tenure here so far has been incredibly underwhelming... we know he has some skills to provide the long ball but his defensive work is piss poor and he gives the ball away too cheaply and far too often... finally, the enigma himself, Ozil, so much skill with his left foot but his presence has been more frustrating than uplifting... in many respects his failure has been directly related to the failure of this club to provide him with the necessary players up front, minus Sanchez of course, and unless something drastic happens very soon his legacy will be largely a negative one (much like Wenger's)

On the other hand with Wenger changing his mind about players all the time (Gabriel, Perez, Chambers etc) if Ox is going to be out of favor later on this season 125,000 per week will make him difficult to shift in the futurOn the other hand with Wenger changing his mind about players all the time (Gabriel, Perez, Chambers etc) if Ox is going to be out of favor later on this season 125,000 per week will make him difficult to shift in the futuron this season 125,000 per week will make him difficult to shift in the future.

Why persist with Elneny and Coquelin the whole game should have at least taken off one of them for a more attack minded or creative player in the second half.No guile at all today and too much reliance on individual play to try and create something.

I do feel that the oldest player in our squad took the comments on board though, and perhaps felt that he more than most was in the mind of the Arsenal manager when he said them, because Petr Cech spoke about the same thing himself after the Gunners had cruised past Lincoln City into the FA cup semi-final.

Spoiler Alert people, we are not getting anyone in the front striker position OTHER than what we already have, there was a story in the star yestrday about the 250 million wenger is looking to spend on the likes of Marco Ruess ect ect and I really can not believe that after all these years the Prof will change his ways and spend all that money and evern if he was going to he needs to pull his finger out as all the top players are being strongly linked with other clubs, meanwhile we wait for the brat Vardy to make up his mind when we know he is highly unlikely to come to us another summer of dissapointment for us as wenger has already stated that Giroud will lead the line next season.

guys look i am going to sound ridiculous but arsene is going to sign a defender and not a central defensive midfielder cause arteta and flamini are both in wenger's good books as these players have settled for the fourth they hit 30 or maybe the mediocrity mind has pulled an hamstring on the club, it seems that Wenger played a game of «expected» but it itself is now derail course so therefore pressure mounted up looks like he is heading for the french market under 10 million valuation» JUST MY PREDICTION»

I don't mind subjective criticism of our manager, players, and so on.

Mohammed Elneny may not be the player on every Arsenal fan's mind week in week out, with the midfielder largely more of a backup man than first team member.

It is easy to say that Alexis is one of the best players in the Premier League, never mind just at Arsenal, and should be paid massive sums of money for what he does on the pitch, but there is another reason why the Chilean could be in need of a large cash raise at the moment.
