«Rangers are a massive club, they are similar to some of the top Premier League clubs and
I think going to a big club this season would be massive for me, to get all the experience and to improve as a player.
Not exact matches
It is a good question although a lot say it's an easy answer as they
think we have nothing
to play for — but in fact we have quite a bit
to fight for as it all involves the
club's future scenarios
going forward
to get back on the level of challenging for
big honours.
NO, If we can be honest and unbiase No they are all right
to be disappointed in Arsenal because we are supose
to be this
BIG CLUB and we have failed to live up to big club expectation and ability and yes not only the top five have improved but sadly the rest are catching up, I'm not saying we are a total disaster but we should do better, I'm going to stick my neck out here but I think we will finish 3rd this season only because Chelsea failed to buy one or two players more for depth in case of injury and Spuds could have problems settling at Wembley and Liverpool could lose their top player in January and have injury problems and worst they have

Players won't
go to City because they
think they're a
bigger, more historic
club than United.
I
think its time arsenal finally sort out this issue about Sanchez contract.if he wants
to leave, then sell him and stop getting us all confused.if he is staying.fine.no player is
bigger than the
club itself.soldier
go, soldier come.barack still remain
Harry Kane is a very good player but still watching him in some games, I don't
think he still is ready
to go to big club and perform (maybe I am wrong).
If he
thinks he's
bigger than the
club, he's free
to go wherever he wants.
Our player of the season so far?Certainly the most consistent.JACK AND OZIL CONTRACTS - just get them signed up for F *** S SAKE.Jack doesn't want
to go anywhere and Ozil will have his choice of
big clubs to choose from if allowed
to be able
to go on a free.How about giving out a statement of our ambitions (yeah right) and show were prepared
to pay whatever it takes (up
to the point of being ridiculous)
to SIGN the best and KEEP the best» These two are the best we have so get them sorted early
to send out a message of how serious we intend
to be.AUBAMEYANG - So what if he has a contract.So did Sanchez.Offer the right money
to Dortmund and the player and he will be ours.What is there
to question over this deal?He is a proven goalscorer.We have just lost one.Get the deal done.GIROUD - Get rid of him
to Dortmund if they want him either by selling or if it sweetens the deal just loan him till the end of the season.He was a back up when Sanchez was here and will be on the mix of back ups if Auba signs.He has a World Cup squad
to fight for just
to be considered so needs
to be playing every week.We do not need him if Auba signs and would demand better than him if the deal fails
to happen.Just get rid.JONNY EVANS - I'm not sure.Agree Kos needs nursing through games and we do not have consistent performers
to come in if he is injured or rested mainly due
to both Chambers and Holdimg not progressing through as much as we first
thought and hoped for.Gooners have always been patient and supportive of the youngsters as they have come through but question marks
to the whole coaching staff as
to why these two seem
to have stalled as much as they have done.Steve Bould - What do you do?You should be ashamed.
it truly has been the summer of twitter agents and mostly itk's this window that plus our tension at being strung along by wenger does nt help our nerves much lol, but makes our fanbase and
club a massive target from such people whether they are arsenal supporters or not, but it will soon be over so i
think that they will all start
to wind down this week, as the days
go by then one last
big explosion on the last day then die of the for winter till jan. take a bow the following people whether itk or twitter agents muzzi ozcan (with his «transfer of the season» quote priceless memz dogi (following along behind muzzi when muzzi died of a bit he picks the a baton it seems.
As much as I would like
to hate your comment above I have
to agree with what you've said here I know there are a hardcore of bloggers on here that will be derisory and downright insulting (Keyboard warriors are always really tough) but unless we have the two new additions we need then we will sadly be another fourth spot contender again, its as simple as that the current squad is nearly there but nearly there is not THERE and I hate
to say it but I
think its gonna be another case of Wenger stubbornly trying
to convince the world he is a genius by winning things without spending much OR by lamenting the injury problems and bad refs and being desultory about
big oil funded
clubs while the
Club we love turns a fat profit for the board and we see no silverware at all.
If you
think this transfer window was a success, if you
think we're
going to win any
big trophy with this squad, if you
think we are doing well as a
club, then you are a joke & you need
to get real.
Who cares spurs prop beat them anyway we are falling giant in bits everywhere team
to da owners
to da manager always up
to da fans,
club needs a
big name someone who Sanchez will say hey great signing I'm staying I believe in this project but same shit every year some fans still
think we're great and hope it be this year haha I no the way it is ahwell we
go anfield and win haha draw be good result we're already playing catch up
to Jose but they no we're no treat we're prop behind Everton like Jesé who scored yesterday could play for us but we got Walcott or ozil even thou I
thought Ozick did some good play but
to weak gives up easy I honestly
think if we lose Liverpool da house will fall down everywhere we need top defender and steel in midfield and we need right winger I say van diik and nzonzi if not nzonzi
go get hamsik worldy player he is and
go get wolfed zaha if not him Carracci of Atlanta Madrid load out there handily is da player we should get thou wat lift he give us
Just compare the way Arsenal treat their players
to other teams.You'll clearly see the difference.The way we treat our players makes them feel so big.Just look at the way Fabregas and Van Persie behaved before leaving.They
go to other
clubs and they look good but you always know they were better under Arsenal.I can't
think of one top player who left Arsenal and was better.If the player has pride the team should also know they have their pride.No player is
bigger than any
club and hence all players should be treated with that in mind..
Sometime i wonder if fans
think wenger is
bigger than the
club, like henry was, he had
to go in that respect.
because of this man's greed we're seen as a joke of a
club he should of been
gone years ago it's blatantly obvious he's finished what makes anyone
think this relic is all of a sudden
going to roll back the clock 14 years in his supposedly final year and win the
big honours?
i
think this could officially be the start of the end for wenger his blind arrogance has cause him
to buy welbeck in the sheer belief that AGAINST THE ODDS HE CAN BEAT THE REST OF THE
BIG 4 WITH ONE ARM BEHIND HIS BACK we should be buying top top top european c / l standard players not sunderland spuds everton standard players thats about welbecks standard of
club in all truthful reality he is an honest hard working player but wenger
thinks he can coach the mediocrity out of him he is truely insane its a guaranteed source of goals we need not more fancy hold up play and «pace» and missing chance after chance so the postman is
to be joined by the manchester metro tram absolute disgrace he has kidded on ozil and sanchez they must be wondering what is
going on atm they are seeing the true wenger now just panicking and not panicking very well
to that effect and for some reason wenger has
gone all kinky for english players for some strange reason at least chambers has great potential welbeck has past that stage and is a seasoned pro now and he is no where near what we need wenger is trying
to show how great he is by whiping the back out of the same players week after week in the vain hope that he can win the league without rotating ever and they will get injured and he wont have learned his lesson and we will pay for it in the end best last day transfer would have been a 4 year contract for klopp
i would have
thought if we are only getting in c / h wenger will
go quite
big in who it might be i have got my money on a # 15 million + player,
to come in as we will need that price range of quality
to come in
to compete and maybe displace mert, or at least allow him
to rest for a few games we do nt know who wengers talking
to in the back ground but i am sure all the scouts have been busy and its just asking
clubs for availability after that.
It's just full of people, supposed fans that constantly criticise the
club calling for the sacking of the manager, spending money on all the so called «
big named players» doing the rounds
thinking that one
big name is gonna yield instant success.
I actually
think it will do harm than good for the english game — it will cause palyers like ings / austin / downing
to go to big clubs and sit on bench as opposed
to playing week in week out for smaller
clubs and improving.
So he obviously
thinks that this will only be helping the smaller
clubs get
bigger, but as we discussed in an earlier article, it is
going to be a lot easier for
big clubs to get around these rules.
He may not be the
big name, top quality striker that many Arsenal fans were hoping that Arsene Wenger would bring in
to the
club this summer, but with just a day left of the transfer window, I
think we could do a lot worse than
to go for the QPR centre forward Charlie Austin.
I believe in this team and will support it
to the death, as I know we are capable of
big things, but this doesn't change my mind on the direction I
think the
club needs
to go behind the scenes!
What Ozil and sanchez are doing imo is only
going to help FANS... Although the
club is
bigger than any player buh then if our two most expensive players and currently our best players refuse
to extend their contracts until they are assured of the
club's ambitions, then wenger will feel the heat and I don't
think even HE can cope with that....
Its ok
to disagree but do so respectively and with intellect and as for the 21st century we did
go invincible in this era and have won 3 fa cups in the last 5 years made it
to a champions league final and lost a cup final this year with hopes
to go far in the europa i do nt
think he checked what era we are in i
think he just made it because we have been one of the most successful and grown
to be one of the
biggest clubs in the world in the w1st century good defense ken
big gun I
think the poll is a bit misleading, you yourself have said give wenger till the end of season I want him
gone but realise in January it could hurt the
club, so there's no where
to vote for some of us, start another poll wenger out or wenger
to stay then we will get a good idea as long as it's not fixed
I'd personally prefer Benteke than a lot of names being thrown around... 24, Arsenal Fan, proven PL scorer and I
think if he moves
to a
big club he's
going to play like he has a serious point
to prove.
I can only hope that this attempt is taken more seriously than the largely muted and clearly unsuccessful protests of late last season... although the plane writing escapade brought some much - needed attention
to the matter, it failed
to resonate with fence - sitters and those who had just recently fell off the Wenger truck... without a
big enough showing of support the whole endeavor appeared relatively weak and poorly organized, especially
to the major media outlets, whose involvement could have significantly changed what was
to follow... but I get it, few wanted
to turn on their
club, let alone make a public display of their discord... problem is, they are preying on that vulnerability, in fact, their counting on you
to keep your
thoughts to yourself... who are you
to tell these fat cats how
to steal your money... they have worked long and hard
to pull the wool over your eyes... they even
went so far as
to pay enormous sums of cash
to your once beloved professor
to be their corporate spokesmodel so that the whole thing would be more palatable... eventually the
club made it appear as if this was simply a relatively small fringe group of highly radicalized supporters, which allowed the pro-Wenger element inside the
club hierarchy
to claim victory following the FA Cup win... unfortunately what has happened
to this
club can't be solved by FA Cups or a few players coming in, the very culture of this
club needs
to be changed and that starts at the top... in order
to change the unhealthy and dysfunctional narrative that has absorbed this
club we need
to remove everyone who presently occupies a position of power... only then can we get back
to the business of playing championship caliber football, which should always be the number one priority of this organization... on an important side note, one of the most devastating mistakes made in the final days of this hectic and poorly planned transfer window didn't have
to do with the
big name players like Sanchez or Lemar, but the fact that they failed
to secure Jadon Sancho, who might even start for Dortmund this season... I
think they might seriously regret this oversight... instead of spending so much time, energy and manpower pretending that they were desperately trying
to make
big moves, they once again lost the plot due
to their all too familiar tunnel vision
Buying morgan would complete our midfield if anything we might have
to get rid of one or two like flamini and arteta also these stories about kos the boss
going madrid are fake as I just
think ramos wants I pay rise and why leave the
biggest club in the world
I do nt know why im so disappointed i keep
thinking every window he will do it splash
big bring back the old days and especially this window with all the abuse he had got last season but no did nothing im the fool for getting my hopes up again you would
think id learn by now, if we did pull off lemar and kept sanchez after buying lacazette and kolasanic id be delighted but keeping an unhappy sanchez isnt good hopefully some forgien
club will come in for him in January but what happened at Liverpool was a disgrace i cant take any more its ruining my mood im depressed in disbelief at how stupid and soft centred we were making the exact same mistakes for 8 or 9 yrs ground hog day i cant cope we have leaked 8 goals in 3 games very worrying and the clown wont even play kolasanic i wanted wenger
to spend
big go out in a blaze of glory in 2 yrs time but this is embarrassing
to me it looks like a money racket and we are the fools
i personally don, t care, some fans
think we should have won the pl i agree this was a good opportunity missed but there are reasons why the other
big guns failed this season, maureen lost the dressing room and was fired, man city decided
to announce a new manager, united few years ago decided
to hire the wrong manager for the
club, liverpool decide
to succumb
to the fans / media pressure and changed manager... it just shows that it all comes down
to how a
club is run so arsenal should be given credits for running the
club the way they do (don, t get me wrong all is not perfect) they could have decided
to sack wenger due
to pressure but didn, t, wenger despite his flaws & the team
going through a difficult patch partly due
to injuries managed
to keep the players on board and steer us
to 2nd place, my point is that winning the pl is not a given right and i truly believe than this time around arsene heard the discontent fans and will make the signings necessary, COYG!!
One that looks certain
to be moving
to a
bigger club is the Stoke City stopper Asmir Begovic, and his team - mate Charlie Adam seems
to think he will be leaving the Brittania Stadium, but doubts whether he would
go anywhere that would leave him as a permanent bench - warmer.
«Until now, everything has
gone well with Leipzig, therefore I don't
think about what could happen in one, two or three years, but of course I what
to play for a
big club at some point,» he said.
Time for some brutal honesty... this team, as it stands, is in no better position
to compete next season than they were 12 months ago, minus the fact that some fans have been easily snowed by the acquisition of Lacazette, the free transfer LB and the release of Sanogo... if you look at the facts carefully you will see a team that still has far more questions than answers...
to better show what I mean by this statement I will briefly discuss the current state of affairs on a position - by - position basis... in goal we have 4 potential candidates, but in reality we have only 1 option with any real future and somehow he's the only one we have actively tried
to get rid of for years because he and his father were a little too involved on social media and he got caught smoking (funny how people still defend Wiltshire under the same and far worse circumstances)... you would
think we would want
to keep any goaltender that Juventus had interest in, as they seem
to have a pretty good history when it comes
to that position... as far as the defenders on our current roster there are only a few individuals whom have the skill and / or youth worthy of our time and / or investment, as such we should get rid of anyone who doesn't meet those simple requirements, which means we should get rid of DeBouchy, Gibbs, Gabriel, Mertz and loan out Chambers
to see if last seasons foray with Middlesborough was an anomaly or a prediction of things
to come... some fans have lamented wildly about the return of Mertz
to the starting lineup due
to his FA Cup performance but these sort of pie in the sky meanderings are indicative of what's wrong with this
club and it's wishy - washy fan - base... in addition
to these moves the
club should aggressively pursue the acquisition of dominant and mobile CB
to stabilize an all too fragile defensive group that has self - destructed on numerous occasions over the past 5 seasons... moving forward and building on our need
to re-establish our once dominant presence throughout the middle of the park we need
to target a CDM then do whatever it takes
to get that player into the fold without any of the usual nickel and diming we have become famous for (this kind of ruthless haggling has cost us numerous special players and certainly can't help make the player in question feel good about the way their future potential employer feels about them)... in order for us
to become dominant again we need
to be strong up the middle again from Goalkeeper
to CB
to DM
to ACM
to striker, like we did in our most glorious years before and during Wenger's reign... with this in mind, if we want Ozil
to be that dominant attacking midfielder we can't keep leaving him exposed
to constant ridicule about his lack of defensive prowess and provide him with the proper players in the final third... he was never a good defensive player in Real or with the German National squad and they certainly didn't suffer as a result of his presence on the pitch... as for the rest of the midfield the blame falls squarely in the hands of Wenger and Gazidis, the fact that Ramsey, Ox, Sanchez and even Ozil were allowed
to regularly start when none of the aforementioned had more than a year left under contract is criminal for a
club of this size and financial might... the fact that we could find money for Walcott and Xhaka, who weren't even guaranteed starters, means that our whole business model needs a complete overhaul... for me it's time
to get rid of some serious deadweight, even if it means selling them below what you believe their market value is just
to simply right this ship and change the stagnant culture that currently exists... this means saying goodbye
to Wiltshire, Elneny, Carzola, Walcott and Ramsey... everyone, minus Elneny, have spent just as much time on the training table as on the field of play, which would be manageable if they weren't so inconsistent from a performance standpoint (excluding Carzola, who is like the recent version of Rosicky — too bad, both will be deeply missed)... in their places we need
to bring in some proven performers with no history of injuries... up front, although I do like the possibilities that a player like Lacazette presents, the fact that we had
to wait so many years
to acquire some true quality at the striker position falls once again squarely at the feet of Wenger... this issue highlights the ultimate scam being perpetrated by this
club since the arrival of Kroenke: pretend your a small market
club when it comes
to making purchases but milk your fans like a
big market
club when it comes
to ticket prices and merchandising... I believe the reason why Wenger hasn't pursued someone of Henry's quality, minus a fairly inexpensive RVP, was that he knew that they would demand players of a similar ilk
to be brought on board and that wasn't possible when the business model was that of a «selling»
club... does it really make sense that we could only make a cheeky bid for Suarez, or that we couldn't get Higuain over the line when he was being offered up for half the price he eventually
went to Juve for, or that we've only paid any interest
to strikers who were clearly not
going to press their current teams
to let them
go to Arsenal like Benzema or Cavani... just part of the facade that finally came crashing down when Sanchez finally called their bluff... the fact remains that no one wants
to win more than Sanchez, including Wenger, and although I don't agree with everything that he has done off the field, I would much rather have Alexis front and center than a manager who has clearly bought into the Kroenke model in large part due
to the fact that his enormous ego suggests that only he could accomplish great things without breaking the bank... unfortunately that isn't possible anymore as the game has changed quite dramatically in the last 15 years, which has left a largely complacent and complicit Wenger on the outside looking in... so don't blame those players who demanded more and were left wanting... don't blame those fans who have tried desperately
to raise awareness for several years when cracks began
to appear... place the blame at the feet of those who were well aware all along of the potential pitfalls of just such a plan but continued
to follow it even when it was no longer a financial necessity, like it ever really was...
Whatever your beliefs are regarding the intentions of this
club moving forward, don't
think for a second that it has
to do with appeasing the fans, winning the highest honours and / or changing the stagnant culture that permeates this
club... every decision is made for one sole purpose and that is
to maintain the delicate balance between Kroenke's unyielding need
to acquire more wealth and Wenger's fragile psyche, which is why we have this ridiculous wage structure that pays deadwood too much and makes it incredibly difficult
to attract special players... personally I believe that Wenger's greatest fear isn't that he won't win a
big trophy again but exposing himself
to the overwhelming criticism he will face when people discover the totally dysfunctional state of affairs that exist at Arsenal due
to his antiquated practices which have
gone relatively unchecked and unchallenged since the departure of Dein
I
think 70m is ok if a
bigger club come in for him and no player
bigger than the
club, obviously he is doesn't want
to play for the
club anymore cos he wants champions league football, it a shame but Wenger must
go fot lemar or draxler or both
to soften the blow, but not
to a rival league
club
I do know that if we ever get there, if we come
to that point we see in other sports, where the player
thinks he's
bigger than the
club, then I'm
gone.
Speaking
to the
club's official website, the Frenchman said:» I
think it's been a difficult (season) for Man United but in
big games like this, we know that they're
going to turn up, because everyone loves these kind of matches.
I would say a
BIG FAT YES but i don't
think henry would agree with sitting on the bench, he
went to New york red bulls when he could've
gone to another european top
club because the man Needs games, I don't
think henry will sit on the bench if I'm being honest
Fans have
to make a choice btw personalities in kroenke and wenger and ARSENAL FC the
club that will always be there long after we are all
gone and the two tyrants
gone... i
thought pple in England as the world oldest democracy embrace change in society as critical but am surprised
to learn that there are fans in this grt nation that are lovers with the status quo at this
club present at the heart of london... we were once a
big club but we're not a
big club anymore!!!
, that player shines... you
think Alexis is
going to move
to another (
big)
club and be the number one there and take the spotlight from the current star (s)?
* as soon as player suffers injury
big clubs do not
go looking
to sell (
think sturridge) for if they did then a word would circulate about what the
club does and decent players would no longer wish
to come.
But with just a few days
to go until the Premier League begins, it's hard not
to look at the top, and at the
clubs that are gearing up for an assault both on the four Champions League places and the
big silver pretty thing itself, and
think «Wow.
According
to a report in The Mirror Bayern are ready
to lure Sanchez
to Munich with a massive weekly wage and so I
think they may be doing Arsenal a
big favour in giving Wenger a chance
to sell the striker
to a
club we are not
going to face, due
to Arsenal being in the Europa League next season instead of the usual Champions League campaign, which has been ended quite a few times by the Bayern team.
I agree
go all the way just
to send a massage
to all players that we are in the business of wining, i don't
think Sanchez would of come
to us if Ozil wasn't with us, not because of his ability its about his stature, Arsenals chase for Mbappe is sending shock waves
to the footballing world its been ages since Arsenal was taken seriously as a
big club for a long time
It's even more upsetting because I
think our away support is one of the best in the league, I
think that creating a standing section might give true gunners a better chance
to go and support the team with lower priced tickets but tbh we need
to voice these opinions at the
club because for such a
big stadium we produce such a quiet and unintimidating atmosphere
So the football media were all
thinking that whichever
club secures a place in the Champions League, if it is only
to be one of us, would have a
big advantage when it comes
to persuading Vlaar where
to go.
-- So if robin wants
big names
to win a title, I don't
think thats
going to work for him, the
club should
go for the arteta and benny type of player...
I
think Barry has
gone to City primarily because no
big 4
club was interested — and this disappoints me.
I
think you will find that Suarez will
go to a
club that actually has a chance of winning a Title and a Champions League, that rules out Arsenal instantly, when was your last trophy lol, your as bad as those scousers, full of delusions of grandeur, while the
big teams do the winning.
I
think he is [happy] in Monaco, but if he
goes to a
big club to play, it's also very good for him.
