Let's get real here.It is very unlikely that ANY professional player will ever say anything derogatory about a teammate that has just left the club.If Jack had said about Coq - «Grew up playing with him in the Youth Team and have fond memories of a player they though he had very limited ability he always gave his all.Very surprised and disappointed the club never invested in a World Class defensive midfielder that we have quite obviously been lacking for a number of seasons and would no doubt have improved the defensive weakness we have shown over a number of seasons» we would have echoed his thoughts entirely.If he had said about Theo - «A player who should have been so much better than he ended up being.He had everything needed to be a prolific player for our club but I can understand the fans frustrations with his continued lack - lustre performances and total lack of a football brain.I think this is best explained by the managers preference to play a player of such limited ability as Alex Iwobi in front of Theo pretty much says it all» we again would have all nodded our agreement.Although Jack never mentioned Alexis Sanchez I would imagine something along the lines of «If the Manager had not persisted with players with such limited ability such as Francis and Theo and instead bought the world class players needed into the club then Sanchez would still most likely be here.The fans must wonder what the hell goes on at the club as they pay fortunes for the privalage of following our club but it seems the millions generated ends up purchasing a new Texas Ranch for the Owner or in a yearly renumeration of # 9million pounds to our manager».

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

DEAR PHIL Let me tell you something: i read carefully what you say, you JON FOX and KEN 1945 since you are our «elder brothers», attending since the sixties (even if you, PHIL, are quit abusive with me, sometimes) therefore i respond to your enquiries: 1 - I believe we» r not progreessing but it's essentially due to the finincial restriction and the spending power of our oppenents (even if Wenger is RESPOSIBLE partly with his dogmatic conception of economics) 2 - Going second to sixth is not of course what we could: should achieve but it been explained by my first answer 3 - I give attention to my fellow arsenal fans, like you, what they are thinking, not to the oppenents (most of the PL clubs fans would give their lives to have a manager with the same success as Wenger over two decades, the first of dominating and the second of re-building the club after the stadium building) Now i am not against another manager if he can do better than the one we have but you must, my friend, respect him for what he has done.....

Sterling already confirm in the first league, he is a certitude, we don't need another Walcott to keep 4 - 5 years and not confirm.I don't understand that part of fans who want that team to play with no name young players, but to win trophies.This is a young and a player who will play sure in the first 11, not who come to get some chances and play a match he, another Gnabry, another Welington, etc.Let's have a great first 11, and on the bunch young players, to can win something, not just play the game for fun, we have a profesional club, not an amateur one.

Trust me I'm one of the biggest fans of Wenger and honestly believe he has been let down by his players but something has to change and I do believe his loyalty to the players is too strong and the longer he stays at arsenal the more his fantastic legacy is being tarnished so for both his sake and the club's sake I think he should look to build a legacy elsewhere think he still has a lot to offer ps why not the England national team... probably knows English football better than anyone else

Your right there trevor we ALL «want» to believe as we all do every season, yet every season threres something that stands in our way, now the majority of us on this site and arsenal fans in general are NOT skilled in the ways of managing and running a modern top class football club, but, the majority of us have a degree of common sense and the ability to problem solve on a reasonable level, and this is where over the years many many fans have become so disillusioned with AW.

While Wenger, s values and philosophy on football and the way it should be played are admirable the fans who love the Club first and foremost have become increasing frustrated by hearing him play the same record time and again.When it was first issued the record was something completely new and interesting but over the years it has become boring and stale and out of date.Very few Arsenal fans hate Arsene Wenger, most like me admire the man and what he has achieved for AFC.However during the past 5/6 years he has failed to address glaring weaknesses in the team.

I like fans of other clubs coming on here to say something.
