Unless you're just saying points relative to first
place in a given season in isolation is all that matters and performances are meaningless and nothing can be extrapolated or projected, in which case our 14/15 side was closer to winning the league and subsequently required less improvement than our 17/18 one, a notion I'd call preposterous.

Debuchy was infuriated by Arsene Wenger's actions last
season, to not
give the Frenchman a chance to re-establish himself
in the team, following on from the injury that had
given Bellerin the chance
in the first
place.
Iwobi recked my head last night he was weak and misplaced many passes he cant seem to control the ball its always running away from him he should not be
in the middle
in the middle you need good ball controllers with good eyes for passes long and short on the ground and above the ground >> > waterford yesterday were on top of us with no space
giving to our players and we were scattered all over the
place with no vision or leader ship too goals
in the space of 3 minuets ok the first goal was a fluke but come on the second one???? and thats all what it takes to loose a match many times this
season we cant play when the opposition seats
in our face we have no cohesion or understanding we crumble away we need to start the game together as a unit a compact unit
Not only does lifting the Europa League trophy
give you an automatic
place in the Champions League for the following
season, it is a highly prized piece of silverware and something that Arsenal and Wenger have never won.
There's basically no sense
in allowing a player leave for free.The disgraceful thing is he's our best player and you're letting him go for free.PSG have also
given us the chance to include Lucas Moura / Blaise Matuidi
in the deal.Why not take Matuidi and run.Then go all out to find his replacement before the
season starts.I just don't see sense
in keeping him.Common sense tells us that he should be sold.You're not granted the title with or without him and just so you know, teams have won the EPL with wingers who are not better than Sanchez.Arsene should be smart before it's too late.I said weeks ago that if he knows
in his heart that he's going to sell he had better do it quickly before teams start
placing mammoth prices on their players as they'll know that desperation of suitors grows towards the end of the window.
Given United's fifth -
placed finish
in the Premier League which means that they will be absent form the Champions League next
season, it always appeared as though Van Gaal would be fighting a losing battle.
Yet now, at this time, sitting a very lowly and pathetic and embarrassing SIXTH
place in the Premiership, after getting knocked out of the FA Cup by a team struggling
in the Championship, and competing
in the Europa League, (Which is basically the Championship) you feel you need to remind us of your loyalty and commitment to Arsenal Football Club.This same Club that despite you failing to achieve a Top 4 finish to
give us our Champions League fare for this
season, Increased your Salary to # 9m per year.I would remind you that you yourself have continually stated that a Top 4 finish was a greater achievement than winning a Domestic Cup Competition, so I will not allow the FA cup win of last
season to enter into this letter.
For Team Callahan, they finished the Regular
Season in second
place and have enough talent to beat anyone on a

Given the Women's Blues exceptional performance last
season,
placing them as one of the best teams
in the University, we were very proud and not too surprised to see them win the hotly - contested «Team of the Year» Award at the Annual University Sports Awards.
Many pundits have been saying that the Spaniard has been extremely ineffectual this
season despite playing every minute of every League game
in this campaign, but with an obvious lack of backups since the sales of Matthieu Debuchy (who has been playing like a genius since joining St Etienne) and Alex Oxlade - Chamberlain (who forced his move to Liverpool), the only option Wenger had was to
give his
place to Calum Chambers.
To have any realistic chance of challenging for the title, however, or even to ensure a
place in the top four at the end of this very competitive
season, the Gunners have to continue to show this killer instinct, because looking at Chelsea and Tottenham's games yesterday it looks like they will not be
giving us any help.
Rooney has made 12 appearances
in all competitions so far this
season for United, but has scored just one goal and created five as he remains unsure of his future
given the fierce competition for
places in Mourinho's squad
in the positions that he wishes to take up.
Meanwhile,
given Chelsea's struggles so far this
season which see them sit
in 14th
place in the Premier League having lost eight of their first 15 games of the campaign, Mourinho may well be tempted to look towards the future and see which individuals can help the club bounce back next
season.
At this juncture of
season pretty much a moot point, who really cares what we do, only mentioning cause don't think media
given near enough coverage as to why daft Wenger ever pulled Sanchez from up top
in first
place.
I also read that Gotze wants to stay at Munich and fight for a
place in the team, next
season... that's if their new incoming manager
gives him the chance.
Given recent selection history, I'm afraid the only way we get to the Lax Dance this year is to finish
in second
place in the regular
season, then make the finals of the B1G Tourney and be ranked
in the top 10 before the NCAA selections (the former two should get us the ranking.)
Given that he's only made 81 appearances
in five
seasons with Barca, it would suggest that he simply hasn't done enough to establish himself
in the senior squad on a consistent basis through a combination of injuries, form and competition for
places.
Given that they are sold
in the summer, any cheap replacements who can deliver us 4th
place next
season as well?
Most should be sold off or go I feel we
gave build a great club on quick sand Over the past 10 years The old board sold us out and took the money and ran The new board just keep taking the money Problem is when aw does to leave or get pushed we still have people at the top who do nt seem to care for us Things and personnel are being put
in place now but the damage is done I soooo fear from us as we are slipping from top 4 to top 7 I look at pool and feel a bit envious They were so far behind us a few
seasons ago and now they seem a long wsy
in front for now They willingly or unwillingly got a defender they needed and we got sweet fa Up the gooners We are arsenal till we die
As far as I'm concerned he has won his first - team
place and if Gabriel is still with us this coming
season he should have to fight to win his
place back and
in no way be
given it back.
hehe well u r the one who is delusional talking about arsenal is
in ur bloods well for us arsenal is our blood.whats this with wenger support if its top four that u guys value so much and hve made it more appealing than a epl title wow shame on of all us see what we hve turned aarsenal into.THIS IS ARSENAL.the moment someone becomes bigger than a club then no way are things okay.ill end with asking my question which has not been answered yet... do u believe wenger will win title with arsenal nxt yeat (epl), do u believe we will be among the strong contenders for the title untill the end when it matters most???? wenger is a smart guy he knows nxt
season automatic arsenal will be struggling even for fourth so that is our target and its a shame we fans r ready to waste another year.I am done with this saga we will find out soon enough and I hope and pray we don't regret
giving this so called legend another chance coz I hve screamed, cried, and pple dare call pple who want change not arsenal fans or not die hards.cheers guys seems top four is safe our annual top fourbparade is
in place
The Ox, Ramsey, Sanogo, Welbeck, Ozil, Wilshere, etc play game after game and are poor
in 80 % of those games but keep being
given chances until they hit a bit of form, our starting 11 have been poor all
season but they keep being
given second chances, we are already 15 games into the league and none has justified their starting
place apart from Sanchez.
For my money and this is only personally speaking I feel that Walcott should get far more stick than Giroud Walcott has been «developing» for nearly ten years and especially this
season just gone has done next to nothing, even when
given a
place in the starting line up.
Further, it's unclear at this stage as to whether Benteke would be interested
in a move to West Brom, as although they'll want to build on their 14th -
place finish last
season and he will be
given significant playing time, it would be a step down
in terms of ambition
in the short - term.
And also
give assists for 2 more goals
in addition to the brace he'll be scoring
in a 0 - 4 away win for Arsenal which will put Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool dreams of a 4th
place finish
in the table this
season seriously
in doubt..
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 French tactician's reported strategy isn't surprising,
