player, especially those that have chronically underachieved, spent an eternity on treatment table or demand ridiculous wages the club won't pay.
A lot of
fans, past
players and even pundits are asking for us to sign Benzema and if we do that would be a big F**K YOU to either Theo or his agent, whoever was holding the club at ransom for a pay raise and back to the wings you go... Get a feeling now seeing Pedro going to Chelsea whom has won everything there is to win and to me is on a different level
than Theo could have been ours if 1) Walcott wasn't homegrown to make up that number and 2) to prevent him from going to a rival.

As regards our defense i won't blame the
players too much for last night result, the manager is to be blamed for not fully prepared and playing
players out of position, i think if the manager had called the
players in a week earlier
than he did, Mustafi at least would have been fit to play, but the result wasn't that bad as most
fans make it seems..
I laughed when you said he will likely be the best
player in the club he's moving to.I hope Arsenal
fans don't deceive themselves also into thinking this.The thing he has over most wingers in the world is work rate.Apart from that in terms of technique, skill and talent there are quite a lot who can match him there or are even better.He won't have that patience of a club like Arsenal that allows for mistakes and he'll be benched even when he doesn't want it.I did mention that he was world class.The fact that you're overrated doesn't mean you aren't world class.I know all his stats and like you I've watched him since he came here and I can say we are making him look better
than he actually is.As for him being irreplaceable I don't think it» sthe first time we heard that about an Arsenal
player leaving and we saw how they eventually ended up.

@kev I agree with you some arsenal

than pedro I heard someone say monreal is better
than azpili haha
The
players and manager, building themselves up and making themselves out to be better
than they are whilst trying to kid and placate / pacify the
fans.
I have a proper source
than Moley.He's been wrong only on the Neymar deal.He's broken many deals ahead of time for many different teams.It's a shame I'm an Arsenal
fan regarding this circumstance.If it was any other club I'd be applauded fror proving updates ahead of time but Arsenal sign few
players and struggle even when the deal looks all but done.
now wengers absurd transfer policy «is down to you people»... seriously krish n`chips... the acolytes of the delusional one are beginning to sound even more of a parody
than the master himself... walcott is a very very average
player with one good season in 12 years at the club... the fact that wenger hasnt sold him is part of the sorry state of our club and the idea that this can be blamed on
fans who want to see us back challenging for top trophies is frankly offensive
As a
fan we have to put our faith that these guys know more
than we do and are making educated decisions when they sign a free agent or draft a new
player.
Alexis decided to take the penalty rather

It sadly is Sue, we have a divided
fan base, an majority shareholder who is (in my opinion) using our clubs assets to secure lending on his other sporting investments, a board who quite frankly see us
fans as customers rather
than supporters as shown by the chairman's AGMs performance,
players who aren't signing new contracts, if you cut Ian Wright and others open you'd see cannons in their blood with some of our
players now you'd find image rights and pound signs.
If only we can cry over the spilled milk, I would have take Higuain from Madrid over Ozil... The season before we bought Ozil our best
player was Cazorla (AMF) and we were in a desperate need for a striker (still we are) and Higuain was availabe for less
than 30M... Ozil is good (more
than good but not for Arsenal) but I think it was a panic buy in the last minutes to pleased the frustrated
fans due to lack of actions in that window...
For Huskers
fans and
players, that answer is already a resounding yes, thanks to a coach who understands their glory days better

To all giroud bashers, who claimed other strikers would score 30goals for all the chances wil created, man city, liverpool actually created more scoring chances
than us which depicts that our midfielders need to create more to meet up with these teams and our
fans must stop picking on
players to attack.
I thought selling Alexis to City rather
than show some guts and force a
player to honour the contract would be the end of Wenger, doing the same thing with Alexis as to what happened with RvP would turn a lot of
fans on him.
Someone who protects the back four»... the thing is, any stats which show Arsenal

player when in reality he has forced them to pay him more money.»

While every Arsenal
fan will be urging the
players to give absolutely everything for a victory over table topping Leicester City tomorrow, our manager is often a bit more pragmatic
than that and whereas we used to sometimes get caught out when throwing
players forward, Arsene Wenger will now sometimes make sure of the point rather
than risking all for the win.
Mertesacker is already 32 years old, and most
fans think that he is becoming slower as he ages, but one of our
players respects him more
than any other
player at the club, and when that
player is Mesut Ozil perhaps we should listen to his opinion.
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....
we have at most 4 real quality outfielders i.e.
players that other top european teams would take... ozil sanchez santi and kos... in my books you need 6... we are two short but worse the quality of others is lower
than needed... only bellerin coq and wilshere have that potential... and there are problems with each still... we should have put in bids in june for griezman kondogbia and the Burussia striker as all could have been prized away with right bid plus
players thrown in IMO... now its too late and wenger is in some weird gallic world of existential hope and denial and
fans are just praying we do nt lose opening 2 matches for first time in over two decades... but no one is really confident against a team which is sure to finish around mid table...
I'd rather see
fans flip - flop on rating potential incoming
players than the disrespect you spout about our
players which changes daily.
Of course it would be silly to suggest that winning any game, cup or otherwise, isn't good for the club, but let's remember just how problematic FA Cup success has been for this club... I'm certainly not going to suggest I didn't enjoy seeing Arsenal win, I'm a
fan of this club first and foremost, but how bad are things when you find yourself secretly wishing that your own team lost so that just maybe real change would finally come... I resent this team for even making me feel such thoughts and it's going to take a lot of effort on their part to earn my trust again... this club has treated the
fans so poorly that it has created an incredibly fragile and toxic environment, so much so that a «what have you done for me lately» mentality has emerged...
fans rise and fall depending on the results of each game because we don't have faith in those in charge to make the necessary changes to personnel and tactics... each time we win many
fans attack any dissenting voices and make unrealistic claims about the
players, the manager and the potential for unprecedented success... every time we lose the boo - birds run rampant, calling for heads to roll and predicting the worst... regardless of what side you fall on, it's not your fault, both sides are simply overcompensating for the horrible state of affairs that have been percolating for several years... it's hard to take the long view when those in charge have lied incessantly and refuse to take any responsibilities for their own actions... in the end, we are trapped by the same catch - 22 that ManU faced upon Fergie's exit... less fearful of maintaining the status quo
than facing the unknown, which was validated, wrongly or rightly, by witnessing the difficulties they have faced during this transitory period... to be honest, the thing that scares me most is that this team has never prepared whatsoever for this eventuality, which considering our frugal nature and the way we have shunned many of our most revered former
players is more
than a little disconcerting
His French team mate also believes he will come back stronger and more determined
than ever, as long as he gets the full support of the Arsenal
players and
fans in his difficult spell on the sidelines.
Of course it is more pleasant for the
players and the managers to be applauded
than to be booed but to blame bad results on the
fans is folly.
Being as a arsenal
fans is alway a pain in the AS *, we
fans want more and hungry
than the manager, the
players and the FU * KING BOARD.
Wenger may be a big
fan of Benzema but we all know his thoughts on big money
players and morally he may well be right, but as far as the politics of the modern game ate concerned, Wenger is out of touch regardless of if you like Benzema or not he's better
than what we have currently and any improvement would be welcome but I fear all this is a moot point.
Most important, though, for the Arsenal,
fans,
players and manager is how the Premier League campaign is going and you can not do much more
than be on top of the table.
I don't understand why
fans with extremely limited knowledge of these situations think they know more
than the
player themselves about when to shut down their season.
Some positives... Chambers and holding have potential Iwobi was decent and aube is a class
player worth what we paid but Czech mustafi and xhaka need to be offloaded in summer and some of these younger
players are hugely overrated possibly coz they don't play enough but that shouldn't be in premiership... The truth that
fans need to accept is that we are closer to Newcastle
than to man utd..

Wilshere getting injured isn't new just how after Wenger does not sign a capable CF for the 4th season in a row and we finish 4th this season you will see the SAME PEOPLE around this SAME TIME next year who said the squad was good enough, you'll see there will be no injuries if everyone stays fit so we don't need to sign
players or we don't really need any striker we have Giroud (a
player better
than Rooney and Henry who it is very very very very HARD to find any better
player than him and whom some
fans here will discount any other
player better
than him to prove he is good enough).
