I think that Arsenal / Wenger sometimes gets unjustly blamed
for the injury
situation at the
club.
I wanted Arsene gone a few seasons ago, only because he did nt adapt tactically, i couldnt blame him
for the financial
situation at the
Club.
Manchester United paid the price so why not Arsenal, no disrespect to what Arsene means to our beloved

for the
situation at hand.
We have to wait
for out - of - favour top players, other
clubs and players in special
situations at other
clubs (like Cech not wanting to leave london but leave Chelsea OR Cazorla
at almost bankrupt or financially sinking Malaga) make things happen
for us in the transfer window.

When the old guard led by David Dein sold us the vision, we trusted them to make it happen, we voted with our wallets, Kroenke came in and stole, and is still stealing that dream from us with Wenger as a convenient scape goat while our commonwealth is being raided, the sad part is that the
situation has seen the spuds steal the template of that dream, and so far so good
for them, a bigger
club would have implemented it faster though but still, they are on course and
at this rate, while we watch after our coffers, a small pub team like the spuds will overtake us,
for the first time in the Premier League era, they finished above us, a
situation not conceivable previously, shows how much the institution Arsenal has deteriorated in recent times.

Are some of you on here missing a few brain cells as fans There is nothing Arsenal or Wenger can do with the Sanchez
situation He wants to leave and has been offered 400k a week in wages who in their right mind is going to turn that down as a player As
for blaming wenger who has been our most successful manager helped us build a stadium gave us 20 years of cl football and some of the best teams the ol has seen Including the invincible and you all have the Gaul to trash the man as if he has done nothing
for the
club I suggest you should look
at the plastic fans in the Arsenal blogs that have created a toxic atmosphere
at the
club They attack their own players in a daily basis why would any top player come to s
club where the manager the owners and players are shamelessly attached constantly Yet Wenger wins trophies regularly even them that is derided Look
at Spurs Liverpool they win fuk all every year yet their fans back then Look
at yourselves and all the negativity that you have created striking the
club before you blame Wenger
for everything I have been a season ticket holder since the 70s and never have I seen our fanbase been so full of entitled morons who have stopped backing the
club and constantly deride the
club snd attack it We have the worst fanbase in football you have made this great
club a lagging stock in world football All you now us fans constantly moaning If you don't like Arsenal fc then buy out kronke and run the
club or fuk off and support someone else You won't be missed Coyg
What is being called «tanking» in MLB is really just teams looking
at the reality of their
situation, both on the field and on their books, and realizing that dropping an extra $ 30MM on payroll
for a FA or two will probably only add a couple of wins and it won't be enough to compete with the big market, big spending
clubs.
there is no doubting that Arsene has helped to provide us with some incredible footballing moments in the formative years of his managerial career
at Arsenal, but that certainly doesn't and shouldn't mean that he has earned the right to decide when and how he should leave this
club... there have been numerous managers
at each of the biggest
clubs in Europe throughout the last decade who have waged far more successful campaigns than ours yet somehow and someway each were given their walking papers because they failed to meet the standards laid out by the hierarchy of their respective
clubs... of course that doesn't mean that
clubs should simply follow the lead of others, especially if
clubs of note have become too reactionary when it comes to issues of termination,
for whatever reasons, but there should be some logical discourse when it comes to the setting of parameters
for a changing of the guard... in the case of Arsenal, this sort of discourse was largely stifled when the higher - ups devised their sinister plan on the eve of our move to the Emirates... by giving Wenger a free pass due to supposed financial constraints he, unwittingly or not, set the bar too low... it reminds me of a landlord who says he will only rent to «professional people» to maintain a certain standard then does a complete about face when the market is lean and vacancies are up...
for those who rented under the original mandate they of course feel cheated but there is little they can do, except move on, especially if the landlord clearly cares more about profitability than keeping their word... unfortunately
for the lifelong fans of a football
club it's not so easy to switch allegiances and frankly why should they, in most cases we have been around far longer than them... so how does one deal with such an untenable
situation... do you simply shut - up and hope
for the best, do you place the best interests of those with only self - serving agendas above the collective and pray that karma eventually catches up with them, do you run away with your tail between your legs and only return when things have ultimately changed, do you keep trying to find silver linings to justify your very existence, do you lower your expectations by convincing yourself it could be worse or do you stand up
for what you believe in by holding people accountable
for their actions, especially when every fiber of your being tells you that something is rotten in the state of Denmark
Should he decide to leave after over 20 years in north London though, it opens up the possibility
for Arsenal to make real changes
at the
club and they will have to get the right man in to avoid the
situation spiralling next season.
It has been so far so good
for Jack as his fitness and form continues to thrive on the south coast, but that has got
at least two Premier League
clubs keeping an eye on his
situation with a view to a transfer bid in the summer.
At Arsenal he would face a similar
situation, this
club with Kroenke as owner will never compete financially with the top
clubs for the top players, however, we do have a very healthy budget and he could convince players like Griezman to join us.
I believe if a player has fond memories of his time
at the a
club but has to leave
for practical reasons, like seeking better playing time, there's always a chance he'll be back if and when the
situation permits, not always but it happens.
Before I go on to report the ins and outs of the current injury

Funny thing about Dortmund transfer policy was, they willing to let player gone to big rival (Muenchen)
for free (during expired contract
situation) instead of sold him
at reasonable price to align
clubs.
According to various Arsenal transfer rumours, however, and they are not too hard to believe considering the current
situation at the
club, any or all of them could be packing their bags
for good this summer.
Good article with plenty of variations each way.To my mind AFC as a
club should have been tying Sánchez down 2 years ago, and Ozil should have been included
at the same time.We could see how good they were and that
clubs with more ambition and forward thinking than us (NOTE - Wenger and the Board you f *** ing TWATS) would gladly offer them better terms financially.These 2 are as good as we could possibly have and we have allowed this
situation to happen.Sure Sanchez has gone
for the wages but can you blame him?If he was tied down on a contract like he should have been then it would be us calling the shots and not Sánchez and his agent.So the answer is NO I'm more angry with the Board and Management than the player who will soon be playing under the most hated manager of all time.They deserve each other.
Although the frustration and anger has been directed
at the
club's hierarchy as opposed to the manager
for the most part, the Frenchman's inability to improve the
situation at Villa Park since his arrival earlier in the season has been disappointing.
Its an unhealthy
situation for a
club at either side of the spectrum.
Tom Cleverley is enjoying the taste of regular first team action
at Aston Villa and Man United will demand around # 8m
for the move to the Midlands outfit to be made permanent though a lot could well depend on the ongoing
situation under current owner Randy Lerner, with some sources claiming that American is looking to sell the
club.
players like Ozil always present the fans with a bit of a conundrum, especially when times are tough... if you look around the sporting world every once in awhile there emerges a player with incredible skill, like Ozil, Matt Sundin or even Jay Cutler, who have a different way about themselves... their movement seemed almost too lackadaisical, so much so that it seemed to suggest indifference or even disinterest on the part of the player... their posture always appears somewhat mopey and they generally have an unflattering «sour puss» expression on their face...
for some their above average skills are enough to keep them squarely in the mix, as their respective teams try desperately to find a way to get the best out of them visa vie player acquisitions or the reworking of tactics... when things go according to planned the fans usually find a way to accept their unique disposition, whereas when things go awry they become easy targets
for fans and pundits alike... in the case of Ozil and Sundin, their successes on the international stage and / or with their former teams led many to conclude that if we surrounded such talented individuals with players that have those skills that would most likely bring the best of these players success would surely follow... unfortunately both the Maple Leafs and our
club chose to adopt half - measures, as each were being run by corporations who valued profitability over providing the best possible product on the field...
for them, they cared more about shirt sales and season tickets than doing whatever was necessary... this isn't, by any stretch, an attempt to absolve Ozil of any responsibility
for his failures on the pitch... there is no doubt oftentimes his efforts were underwhelming, to say the least, but this
club has been inept when it comes to providing this prolific passer with the kind of players necessary
for him to flourish... with our poor man's version of Benzema up front, the headless chickens in Walcott, the younger Ox and Welbeck occupying wide positions far too often and the fact that Carzola, who provided Ozil with great service and more freedom to roam, was never truly replaced, the only real skilled outlet on the pitch was Sanchez... remember to be considered a world - class set - up man goals need to be scored and
for much of his time here he has been surrounded by some incredibly inept finishers... in the end, I'm not sure how long he will be in North London, recent sentiments and his present contract
situation seem to suggest that he will depart
at season's end, but how tragic would it be if once again we didn't put our best foot forward and failed to make those moves that could have brought championship football back to our once beloved
club... so when you think about this uniquely skilled player don't be so quick to shift all the blame on his shoulders because he will not be the first or the last highly skilled player to find disappointment
at the Emirates if we don't rid the
club of those individuals that are truly to blame
for our current woes
i really hope that arsene wenger has other plans on our striking
situation and i hope he is not seriously considering benzema... if he is then i think he has to sell giroud first because it is very hard to see the guy who benches you on the national team still bench you
at club level... my God how will ollie take that??? itl be devastating
for him and to be fair to him, as human it is hard to bear..
It seems to me that Arsenal Football
Club and the fans find themselves in this
situation at least once a season, with Gooners everywhere fuming and calling
for the head of Arsene Wenger.
We don't expect lightning pace from the big defender and some fans think he is not really good enough
for a
club as big as Arsenal, but we have previously been able to count on him in aerial
situations at least.
