While most have seen it as a real coup for the Gunners and a big step towards making us a club capable of winning the Premier League title again, including Jose Mourinho and John Terry of course, James seems to think that Chelsea have the better of the deal.

He was quoted as saying in the Mirror: «When I first saw Alexis Sanchez join the club, I thought, «Wow, yeah, this is a big statement».

Wow... If Wenger would think and act like that he wouldnt work as the manager of one of the biggest clubs in the world.

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.

Just as I have written in the past, he reckons that the Gunners and Wenger have had terrible luck on the injury front and he clearly thinks that any club would struggle in the absence of big players like Santi Cazorla, Alexis Sanchez, Jack Wilshere and Danny Welbeck.

I think Italian club football is on the rise as Juventus have made a big statement by reaching the final of the UCL.

You use Juve as an example where they haven't got all the positives and yet are successful... but as the biggest Italian club who only got relegated because of a MATCH FIXING SCANDAL you must be kidding to think they're not already big boys.

But like Giroud and the likes Walcott, Arsenal made them think big, so i hope that they all leave this club and try their luck elsewhere as i am sick of tired of mediocre players turning us to what we are today

There would always have been plenty of managers willing to take on the job, even though the club's transfer budget was a fraction of those being spent by our direct rivals, but I do not think any other top manager would have stuck with us, especially with big spending clubs such as Real Madrid and PSG after them.

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.

In wenger we trust COYG u spoilt little brats, you muppets ain't even been tested in your arsenal fan career never seen your club finish lower then fourth every year we play in cl against the big boys and you lot act like were in crisis and things are so bad wow I'm beyond belief just can't get my head around the way you lot act sometimes step back a bit a think a little you twats most of you in your life time have never seen your team finish lower then fourth yes fûc #ing fourth most of you don't even no what it's like to be a real fan wen your team are struggling finishing mid table and still saying you love the club and protect them never in my life have I heard a generation of arsenal fans critise manager players board everything about our club wen things our knowere near as bad as you make out to be and could be.

I don't really blame any of those players at all, first mistake from Wenger was his team selection and secondly wrong players in a wrong position,, its quite sad with all their mouths and boasting of starting the season strongly and aiming for the league just a waste of energy and wishful thinking, am putting the whole blame on Wenger, where is Belerin, why Ozil, Cazorla played out of positions, you should know their weaknesses and strength as a coach, why must we pass and pass to score a goal, many opportunities came from shooting distance but the players will always be looking for the next person to pass the ball to, its quite unfortunate that a big club like arsenal is relying on a scrappy Giroud to lead an attack of a team aiming to win the league.

I'm so sick of people telling those of us who are disgruntled fans to relax and give this club time to correct itself... for anyone who believes that taking a wait - and - see approach is appropriate at this juncture they should take a good long look at themselves in the mirror because they are a big part of the problem... no other «big» club's fans would stand for this shit for nearly as long as we have... think about it, we've witnessed a changing of the guard at every major club in England, Spain, France and Germany in the last several years because those «big» clubs failed to live up to expectations (Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern, PSG, Chelsea, ManU, ManCity etc...)... for some reason, many fans have become as fragile as our current manager, believing that there couldn't possibly be a suitable replacement, even though everyone of these clubs have found multiple replacements and still achieved far more than our club... this mindset has been created by an organization that has been milking it's fans, telling countless lies (no world class players available) and lowering expectations every since they rolled out the biggest lie of all: that we couldn't spend because of the new stadium but once it was paid off we could compete with any team in the world... this organization is rotting from the inside out and if we don't demand that those in charge put soccer first this despicable behaviour won't end with Wenger's ridiculous 2 year contract... I think the real fear isn't that a suitable replacement doesn't exist, but that this organization is so money hungry and poorly mismanaged that we will sink even lower by choosing our next coach the same way they choose our players, on the cheap... even so, we need to see what mustache will do if left to his own devices so he will have to show his true colours... only then can we purge this club and start anew

Whatever it takes could mean a lot more than we previously thought, though, as the Daily Mail is reporting that Premier League rules on wages and the limit of how much they can rise from one season to the next will almost certainly force Arsene Wenger to sell at least two of the club's other big earners in order to offer Alexis and Ozil the wages they want.

The only thing which makes our team unbalanced is playing the luxury item we bought called ozil.I thought he would need time to adjust to physicality of premier league so i supported him, but the guy hasn't improved he tries to dribble past ppl but runs into them somehow, tries to do showboating at unnecessary time which he fails to do miserably.And i see him giving too many back passes when he should drive forward.And the biggest reason i stopped liking him as a player is bcoz of his sulky attitude.No passion or drive for the club, as if he wanted to be at some other club and is just doing the job without his heart in it.He neeeds to be placed on the bench and make him work hard to retain his place.Ramsey and coq in middle with ox and sanchez on both wing and cazorla as cam will make us a more balanced midfield.

I wanted to know we could challenge the best to win, and I just don't think there is as much appeal in a victory against this liverpool team as there was last year, just feel like I'm waiting for that game where we turn up away from home against a big club and show them we can play and win

Arrogant fool has lost most of the fans with obvious bad tactics, excuses and lack of activity spending fans money (should never be as split as it is now AKB / AOB) the fans is what makes Arsenal, who i may add pay all the big bucks to watch The Arsenal in a fancy stadium that they paid for and what did they get in return... an old delusional stubborn man who runs their club the way he thinks its should be... 200m in the bank and nobody available??

Competing with Giroud at a new club, new league may not be as big of a walk in the park as some fans seem to think..

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 he is banned, but the big defender thinks that there is little need for a captain at the club.

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 alAs 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 alas 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 alas 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 alas 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.

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 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.

So please re-evaluate your own thoughts about Wenger being the fault, this was never the case up until Gazidis came to AFC, Wengers FRIEND Dein wanted investment into the club and was a share holder, he sold his shares to try and get that investment to the club... Wenger has said that he and Dein are close friends, you think close friends wouldn't of discussed something as big as Usmanov coming into the club?

Yes — I don't really understand AFCON — not only is it held at least twice as often as other big international sporting events, and sometimes more, if they decide they want to change the schedule, to not interfere with something else (not the players club obligations, who pay their wages, perish the thought), but it is always held at the peak of the league season, as they say it maybe raining in summer, which I also don't get, as it rains here all the time — I'm sure there are parts of Africa which have reasonable weather during the summer — it's a big continent — South Africa must be fairly clement at that time.

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.

The team does not do well at home compared to other top teams as the «fanz» are admirers of other teams, just think they know more than the man who put this club to compete with big money.

I think Ozil has the same problem as Torres and Andy Carroll Syndrome BIG PRICE TAG big expectation in their mind, Ozil has nothing to prove at Real but here new club new country new Medea and so BIG PRICE TAG big expectation in their mind, Ozil has nothing to prove at Real but here new club new country new Medea and so big expectation in their mind, Ozil has nothing to prove at Real but here new club new country new Medea and so on.

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.

Maybe I will get alot of thumbs down for this but: 1) I think Rudi Garcia would be a way better option for Arsenal, his only con is that he never managed a club as big as Arsenal (also Roma aren't small potatoes either).

Well the big thing is the big 4 clubs United & city Liverpool Chelsea then we have lestster tottingham West Ham I would go as say 2 more up there so point I'm making is they have all got players in and will still buy but I just don't think AW will.

i much as i love to see Jack start every game but being realistic i think Jack should settle for a part bench part start job at a big club then a regular play at a smaller club because of his injuries woes,

I think we could manage without Campbell, but I don't think «manage without» is something a club as big as ours should do.

If the top players are tempted to China then I think it could help Arsenal compete with the big spending clubs here, as the players after the really big money will be over there rather than playing for one of our EPL rivals.

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!

After game we will all be on here saying the same thing as we do when we get beaten by all the big clubs those who think we can get a result are totally deluded we do not have a prayer they will expose all our weaknesses and win the game comfortably then u can all start the moaning about Wenger the team certain players just face facts we are not good enough!!

Have some self respect and mercy with us fans who still want to think of Arsenal as a big club.

It was Gerrard again and as he is such a big figure at the club, I think they will struggle to regain that momentum which is great news for Arsenal as we face them at the Emirates stadium in our next game and we could end up facing them in the FA cup final.

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

Emirates stadium and huge sponsor deals we finally have had two poor years by his standards at the helm we always havent been so great and are we weak supporters or strong give him a contract i mean hes won with ants for money let him spend for once cause even if we do get new manager inflation has occured and no body else will win with the small amounts we gave him to spend and in 20 years actuall more it seems the club is finally willing to spend give him a contract let him spend and if we do nt improve which i think we will i think that the club is finally willing to spend shows were on an upturn because as long as top four the owner and board weren't and after we spend big or somewhat big for once and auba and mkhitaryan arent the big im hoping for i want more if liverpoodlians can pay 75million for a cb let wenget spend a bit and if we still do bad we can always sack him or ask him to leave wouldnt be uncommon but we owe it to him and do nt say we do not because emirates london colney that will bring in high talent here for years to come and we have never spent for him just gave little and hes always done big things with little i think he can do bigger things in his final years if we give him big i do nt see us in decline but if we sack him we will be for a good three maybe four years

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

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.
