ONE The squabble with fans over the last season, when we did not buy an outfield player until January, which left us short at the start of the season, i think it had a telling effect on Wenger when the fans began protesting he seemed quite flustered, although i never agreed with some of the behaviours, i do not think he would not want another episode.

AKB's just never run out of excuses, it isn't «bad luck» when we are first on the injury ladder (by a country mile as well) EVERY SEASON, the last time i remember having a reasonable injury list was before diaby was injury prone, so whether it's down to his tactics, players diets or imcompetent staff, a 2.5 star manager wouldn't have taken more than 2 - 3 seasons to fix these problems, players join our club with amazingly good injury records (ozil) and become injry prone, players leave our club (fabregas) and are fit 2x as much as they were for us, SOMETHING IS WRONG AT ARSENAL

If owners and Wenger himself do not get a huge container of coffee, we will finish 12 and he will be doing the walk of shame, leave himself remembered as a loser...

Then wenger can sit all season long, bench himself as he does and watch henry do the running and screaming as other manager dio...

Football was never about loyalty.It's just a choice.We'll always mention how loyal some players were but won't mention how loyalty has finisbed the careers of some players.Such players stay in the team and waste their talent till they can no more longer reproduce their ability instead of moving for better chances.I know you know what I mean.One such player is Jack Wilshere.If he had left Arsenal seasons back there was a high chance that he'd have been world class since his injuries would've have been greatly reduced.I'd likd to see top players who are loyal to average teams for me to call them truly loyal since it's far more easier to be loyal to top teams.

The 25 - year - old is not a natural in that position, having started out as a right - back before making the move to the opposite side in the 2013/14 season, and it may be that manager Jose Mourinho would favour a left - sided player for that role, allowing Azpilicueta to slot back in at right - back.

we should leave ozil alone, i know that he hasn't been at his best yet but i, d rather have him struggle now while the rest of the team is firing on all cylinders, it, s a long season and i truly believe that he will come good when we are struggling & depending on him he, ll start racking up the numbers of assist, his slow start to the season might be because after recovering from the euros it is taking him a bit longer to get going again compared to other players but not to worry because» FORM IS TEMPORARY BUT CLASS IS PERMANENT».

If we start this season with those two in our starting 11 it will be a clear sign from this organization that nothing has changed and that we will never get it right until both Kroenke and Wenger are gone... neither one of these players should still be with our club at this point because they represent the settling half - measures that have plagued this team for a number of years... this is what I call the «no man's land» of the soccer world, where teams don't have enough talented young players, unlike a Monaco or Dortmund, because they have lost the plot from an organizational standpoint... they are so reliant on one individual to run the whole operation that their once relevant scouting department has become so antiquated that it can no longer find those hidden gems it once had... furthermore, when you leave all decision - making to a manager who despises any dissenting opinions, your management team becomes little more than a stagnant group of «yes men» and no new ideas emerge... so instead of developing a team with the qualities necessary to excel in a particular system, you continually make half - brain purchases year after year to stifle dissent from the ticket - buying public, then try desperately to finagle together a lineup regardless of what would make positional sense... have you ever heard of a team who plays players out of position so often... of course not because that manager would likely be fired and never work for a team of any consequence ever again

Giroud while a useful player against certain teams can't do that and Walcott is a waste of space and money... Dybala might have been and Pedro probably is (though not a big fan and anyway don't think he'll leave) Lucas might be or reus... But wenger better find someone decent for that position if we want to take on chelski and an improved man utd next season
