Whilst nearly all of the Arsenal fans want to
see the back of Arsene Wenger, many are forgetting to place blame on players that continue to let the team down.
Not exact matches
Arsene Wenger previously admitted that he
saw similar qualities in Cohen as he did in a young Ashley Cole, who as we all remember turned out to be the best English left -
back for the majority
of his career, and was also a key member
of our Invincibles side also.
There has been talk that a possible switch to a
back four could be implemented for Saturday's encounter, although I believe that
Arsene Wenger would
see that as a negative despite his lack
of senior options,
Arsene Wenger currently has a number
of top - quality options to field at right -
back, with young Spaniard Hector Bellerin currently keeping out French international Mathieu Debuchy, whilst Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers has
seen Nathaniel Clyne effectively replace departed England right -
back Glen Johnson at Anfield.
Yes Sue I believe there are a couple
of young lads at the club named Calum Chambers and Rob Holding that we're brought to the club as very promising youngsters.They have both been coached at the very highest level
Arsene Wenger and his entire coaching team can give to these Two boys and somehow they have
seen their abilities performances and confidence go backwards.This with a Club Legend Centre
Back as Assistant Manager.
I'm resigned to thinking that
Arsene Wenger will leave at the end
of the season now, with such a tough campaign taking its toll on the attitude
of our players, and the fans making it clear they wish to
see the
back of him -
So, to continue my series
of looking
back and
seeing how nothing has changed, this article from two years ago shows that
Arsene Wenger complaining about the Arsenal fans affecting the players is nothing new.
OT: Redknapp: «The big problem for
Arsene Wenger is once you lose the fans, there is no way
back, I
saw the Arsenal fans» proposed boycott
of tonight's match against West Brom and if it goes ahead to the extent it has been predicted,
Arsene will get the message loud and clear.
Danish international Nicklas Bendtner was ushered
back into the Arsenal first team set - up this term but this has chiefly been down to the lack
of alternative options available to
Arsene Wenger but recent off field antics will
see the North London club look to sell the big forward.
Van Dijk's fine form in Scotland has
seen him strongly linked with Arsenal in recent times, with
Arsene Wenger's side also desperately in need
of improvements in the centre -
back department.
Arsene Wenger and the players head south to face them on Saturday in the fourth round
of the FA cup and even though we are hoping that the next few rounds
of matches in the Premier League
sees us clos the gap on Chelsea to get the title challenge well and truly
back on track, we have to accept that the FA cup is now the best chance
of us winning a trophy this season.
While I
see your point I think it's been made pretty clear by everyone Wenger has complete control when it comes to footballing matters at arsenal and as Charlie Nicholas said a few seasons
back it is
arsene who decides to buy or walk away for example holding was told
of arsenal's interest in him and it took three weeks for Wenger to agree to sign him for # 2million, that's not exactly a lot
of money to arsenal is it.
this season was supposed to be about the epl not fourth place.just
seeing how empty the Emirates was yesterday I expect it to be even worse in the upcoming games.wenger blew it in the transfer market, I think that in itself shows how we lacked ambition and we settled for a top four from the beginning and if by a chance we managed to win epl then thats it.lossing some games, crucial points and the feedback we got
back was just covering the real goals
of the club top four.soton home (a team challenging has to win this game), Crystal palace, swansea, just add those points and
see where we could and should hve been.everyone here is a die hard arsenal fan whether an akb or aob but fact remains we love the club, we want the club to move forward, we want the club to be a superhouse, its got nothing to do with wengers last year or his last chance
of epl.this sort
of thinking is running our beloved club to the ground.whether u like it or not a change is needed and a serious one.at the moment we hve so many bogey teams do u think
arsene will beat them nxt season!!!
why was Sanchez truly playing... no one believes he was too injured to play to start the season, and some like myself would go as far to suggest he wasn't injured at all... so why play him... they can't say it was to appease the fans because when was that ever a factor at this club except when «panic buys» were in the offing... I believe that this was to give Arsenal a little leverage when it comes to negotiating his transfer... just imagine their horrible bargaining position if Sanchez never
saw the field before the deadline then heading
back to South America and played for Chile... regardless
of the facts, this was sadly again another example
of a team putting business ahead
of fielding a team with the greatest chance to secure 3 points...
of course, some will say that Sanchez is, or was, our best player, so obviously he's a no - brainer to start, but those who really watch the game know that his heart hasn't been truly in it for quite some time... even at the end
of last season you could
see a definitive difference between the Sanchez who played for Chile and the one that played for Arsenal... that being said, 70 %
of Sanchez is still better than a 100 %
of the vast majority
of our remaining roster... shame on you
Arsene and shame on you too Sanchez for that telling smirk... I've supported your attempt to push this squad to the next level but don't pretend for a second that you didn't know you were being watched... don't lower your standards or you'll end up like this club, on the outside looking in
It is a shame that
Arsene Wenger will not
see the star
of the season for Arsenal so far until later this week, as Alexis Sanchez plays for Chile tomorrow night and then has a long flight
back to London.
Arsene Wenger will definitely not be using the England forward Danny Welbeck against Burnley as he spoke on a press conference you can
see in full on the Arsenal website about the striker's length
of time out
of the game and how it would be a gradual process
back into the first team for Welbeck, including a least one game for the Arsenal under 21 side.
If you
saw the recent comments from the Arsenal right
back Hector Bellerin then you will know that the Spaniard is right on track with the recent thoughts
of Arsene Wenger when it comes to the need for some more signings in the January transfer window.
One player we have already concluded a deal for is Sean Kolasinac, which will likely
see him take up a place opposite Bellerin down the flanks as wing -
backs, with
Arsene Wenger insisting that we will be continuing our use
of the newly favoured 3 -4-2-1 system.
The Arsenal and England international left
back Kieran Giibs has been the subject
of some Arsenal transfer rumours over the last week or two, as this season has
seen him forced to play second fiddle to Nacho Monreal and then some reports suggesting that
Arsene Wenger was looking at the transfer
of the young left
back from Leicester City Ben Chilwell.
Forgive me
Arsene, but while I am glad to
see Welbek on his way
back from his awful spell
of injury problems, I think you need to understand that we Arsenal fans will only
see a player that is new to the club as a nerw player and after our title challenge hit a serious wobble recently I think that this January needs to
see at least one
of them coming to the club.
The problem with the kind
of see -
saw performances we
see from Arsenal is actually that
Arsene always manages to bounce
back & do enough to earn 4th place or better at the end
of the season.
So
Arsene Wenger and the players will have been pleasantly surprised yesterday to
see the EPL strugglers Sunderland come
back from behind twice to hold Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool side to a draw at the Stadium
of Light.
Our recent bit
of form, to be honest I can
see why
Arsene reverts to putting Oxlade
back on the wing.
However, sources at the club now say Arsenal are close to reaching agreement on Vrsaljko which would
see Arsene Wenger buy the 18 - year - old right -
back in January but loan him
back until the end
of the season.
I think
Arsene might regret signing that new deal, if we're out
of the title race by Christmas and even if we lose
back to
back games early on I think the knives will be out for him which in my opinion will be sad, I didn't want him to sign a new deal but I didn't want to
see him sacked.
When
Arsene Wenger signed the young English defender Rob Holding for Arsenal in the summer it was not exactly met with joyous acclaim from the Arsenal fan base around the world, partly because not many
of us had heard
of him and partly because he was coming to north London off the
back of a dreadful campaign which
saw Bolton Wanderers relegated from the second tier
of English football.
I too also know that we look weak at the
back but i also believe they have learnt from there mistakes last season and have a stronger unity this season going into the 3rd season with the team wenger has put together without losing key players and adding real Quality and world class that i havent
seen before because none
of our history says we bought our trophies we won them with all the unexpected beliefs and never bought into the society and modern game we
seen before us not one
of our legends were already labelled for they are today before they came to us The made a name for themselfs in our Jersey and build a foundation
of what we represent today Before
Arsene Wenger and with him We are a club that overachieve and under promise Everything we've done has be our very own unique way
of doing it not the way other clubs are ahiceving i for one will not Follow the Man City's ambitions Chelseas Manchester united or anyone elses
Saw the united match after the arsenal one and by the looks
of it they have got their house in order and their shop is
back in business after that gift from arsenal to them which is what concerns,
arsene needs to
see the match united played just like sir Alex's teams putting pressure and draining the energy out
of Hull bodies.
So unless the last two days
of the summer transfer window
sees Arsene Wenger bring in at least one more quality defender to bolster our shaky
back line I can not
see any value in letting Mustafi leave.
With players coming
back from injury, it will be interesting to
see how
Arsene flexes his tactical nous when most
of them are available.
Arsene Wenger has spoken about it taking a long time to come
back after so long but we have
seen the likes
of Ramsey and Ozil brought
back much more quickly and so when the talk
of contract negotiations with Walcott came up, I suspected that there was a bit more to the situation than met the eye.
Many people have had their say as to why we finally
saw the Ozil that helped his country to win the World Cup and was such a mainstay
of the Real Madrid side under Jose Mourinho, with many focusing on him being moved
back into the niddle by
Arsene Wenger.
Arsene Wenger spoke in the week about the big gap between Arsenal and the current Premier League leaders might just allow the Gunners to play with some
of the old fluency and verve that
saw us topping the table at the turn
of the year and even though the Gunners were knocked out
of the Champions League in midweek, there were enough positives from our performance against Barcelona to give us some belief
back.
You'd really have to ask yourself if he'd still be here if he wasn't French.Wenger has every right to sell Giroud.If we were very ambitious we would've sold him long ago.We're treating him as if he's a crucial player.The lesson will only be learnt when Lacazette goes out with a long term injury.We will then
see how good the
back ups are.To me he's not a super sub as he's the kind
of striker who requires service.Being a super sub is not enough because remember he's the next in line if anything happens to Lacazette.Giroud was Arsenal's main striker for a reason.Last season 99 %
of the matches he scored coming
of the bench were matches he should have started to give us that aerial presence but Wenger shockingly started Sanchez.It's a shame fans will blame him next season again for his short comings.The guy is just not good.It's not good enough to be strong in aerial battles alone and weak in almost every other aspect.I expect Arsenal and
Arsene to do better.He must be sold.
So while
Arsene Wenger has not been trying specifically to build a team full
of fast runners, it is good to
see a Metro report claiming that the Gunners could have the fastest
back four in Europe.
See what I mean, why say you will wait til end
of season if mind is made up, you never know
Arsene might prove you wrong and if he does I would hope that you again give him your
backing.
Having said all that, Arsenal fans will be hoping that he bangs in plenty
of goals for us in the coming months and years and
Arsene Wenger thinks that his new striker finding the
back of the net just 15 minutes into his Arsenal debut could really help him to do just that, as it will settle the nerves and stop any build up
of pressure that we have
seen affect players like Giroud and Walcott in the past.
When Arsenal's season ended with us
back in fifth place for the first ever time under
Arsene Wenger, there was talk
of a massive overhaul
of the team to get us
back on track for a title push, but all we have
seen so far is the arrival
of Kolasinac for free, and the release
of Yaya Sanogo.
It6 is easy to
see why a lot
of Arsenal fans would gladly take almost any central defender in the Premier League at the minute, because
Arsene Wenger seems intent on persisting with the Spanish left
back Nacho Monreal until our regular first choice Laurent Koscielny has got over the tendonitis in his ankles.
In fact with a vision-less and passion-less board as ours, Wenger as arrogant and as past it as he might is the only semblance
of sanity, I don't support Wenger I believe he is currently doing a marvelous job, I support him because I can
see a couple
of moves ahead already, if Wenger leaves and the board stays the same, we are massively effed, Newcastle will be child's play, Kroenke's other teams are mid table contenders, he will simply look at another money making model for Arsenal, even Usamanov believes
Arsene needs
backing, if Usmanov came in today, he will not fire Wenger, he will seek to work with him, give him a clear mandate,
back him up without pointing at the balance sheeets and if he still does not deliver, looks like a guy who would fire Wenger mid s - season, legacy or not.
Immediately i
saw TW14 at the
back of your name i realized, it's either you are theo's Agent or his Uncle, no wonder you are been thumbed down, it's people / fans like you that makes
Arsene and the board think first 4 is a trophy, i am sure in your opinion you feel TW14 is the best striker in EPL and we don't need to buy players like Mahrez, casette, cause he's better than they are
Take a step
back and look at the facts again, because
Arsene Wenger seems to be suggesting that we only
see this, and the seven years
of crashing out
of the Champions League before the quarter - final stage, as failure because we are told as much by the football pundits on TV and the journalists in the press.
Arsene Wenger seems very happy with both the present keepers, and with his new policy
of not changing a winning side I can
see Ospina staying in the starting XI from now until he makes a big enough error for Cech to be brought
back in.
Seriously sometimes I laugh when I
see our sub, how on earth do we expect us to beat the likes
of bayern madid, juve, just look at our midfield, no fighter, imagine couqlin, xaka, elneny playing with the likes
of Alonso, Alex vidal, lewadonski, we don't have a fighter, no playmaker, no natural winger, I wished
Arsene bought Kante, and Draxler then brought
back Fabregas, just imagine how our mildfiled we look like, but instead if you remove ramsey, you're bringing on Adelaide, and you want to win the league, seriously wenger must go enough
of this, pain.
Arsene Wenger has witnessed the likes
of Thierry Henry and Dennis Bergkamp finding the
back of the net but the manager insists that Olivier Giroud's scorpion kick is the best Arsenal goal he's
seen as Arsenal manager.
We can expect to
see a handful
of younger players such as Ainsley Maitland - Niles and Reiss Nelson, and with
Arsene Wenger planning to rest Xhaka, Maitland - Niles may play in his preferred midfield position, with Josh DaSilva at left
back (another option in midfield is Mohamed Elneny).
Sanogo has never set the world alight at Arsenal but he has always had the
backing of Arsene Wenger and as a young player, it is sad to
see something that appears to be very serious, effect his career.
Back when
Arsene used to play at CB, a lot
of Africans
saw him play at AFCON 2008 and he dominated the midfield in an aging Camerounian side.
Arsene Wenger and his men have battened down the hatches at the
back and developed a ruthless streak that has
seen them win 11
of their last 13 Premier League games and book another Wembley appearance in the FA Cup final.
i cant help my anger at this point becos its a result
of so much pent up frustration and the managers failure to recognise issues and failure to ever acknowledge our fans and i refuse to stick my head in the ground and come up smiling after beating stoke at home 2 - 0, maybe if the manager had ever once just said «i feel for the fans» or apologise to travelling fans after gutless away displays, but no he does nt feel accountable to any1 despite the thousands
of times «theres only one
arsene wenger» rings in his ears, hes gotten more love and trust than youd give your wife but wot has he given you in return the last 4 years???? not even acknowledgement, and in between the poor run hes given us more than his fair share
of touchline controversy which reflects badly on us and the club in regards to fair play.and he never
sees anything!!!! be honest and come out like moyes and bruce, its refreshing!!!! the standards at the club hav plummeted and where chels, utd, pool and even villa / city / spurs hav so many players who fight and uphold club traditions we only hav cesc, gallas, verm, RvP, sagna and arsha who, IMO really care and who fight when our
backs are to the wall....
