try for this football season!

I rather
try a new manager with new ideas and miss CL
football for a while, than stick with Wenger and get the last few
seasons all over again.
I'll go a step further if Van Djik hasn't signed
for Liverpool I would
try to make a move and here is why: 1) Prem experience 2) Southampton plays a similar style of
football than Arsenal 3) He can play in both a 3 and 4 man defense with his ability on the ball 4) Mustafi has been up and down and I don't know which one we're getting ahead of next
season and will it be
for 38 weeks 5) Mertesacker will go into a non playing role 6) Chambers has played well at Boro but well enough to play a big role into this team... not really and could be used in any deal
for Van Djik 7) Koscielny is our best defenders but is dealing with a chronic injury not only that he hasn't made the best decisions at times Everything mentioned above will free wages but also increase Wenger money to spend!
Gary Neville has torn into those criticising Chelsea's
football this
season as «boring»; instead the former Manchester United captain says critics should be slamming Arsenal, Manchester City, Manchester United and Liverpool
for their dismal efforts at
trying to keep up with the title leaders.
Wenger is now prioritising a Europa Cup competition to
try and salvage something from a
season he has overseen.He is
trying to win a competition to save himself.Lets pray the Board finally wake up and remove him from this club.No job
for life upstairs.No Director of
Football role (a position he has always said he would never work with).
What I'm
trying to say is, I'm cooking, writing and posting almost exclusively
for BSD tailgates this
football season, and, I'm loving it: Baja Fish tacos, the Portuguese Bifana, Hungarian Paprikas — I'm really enjoying the fun, «new food» this
season (& I tend to run out of time
for a third recipe by the time Thursday rolls around).
Falcao's
season - long loan move to the Blues from Ligue 1 outfit AS Monaco was announced on the same day the summer transfer window opened on July 1 [via Guardian Sport] as the 29 - year - old is set
for another crack at
trying to prove himself in English
football.
A lot of
football coaches take press conferences after their annual spring game, which wraps up spring practice, as their last chance to
try to get the fan base excited
for the upcoming
season and hype up all their players.
In other news, our team seems to be rounding nicely into form, with a productive off -
season and several new additions already settling in, there seems to be a renewed sense of confidence in the air... our well - oiled machine has conducted business again early this year, so we can just sit back, kick our feet up and watch all those other suckers scramble to make panic moves in the 11th hour... of course, we need to tie up a few loose ends but our team of savvy negotiators, under the tutelage of our faithful leader, will perform their usual magic with ample time to spare... I have to laugh when I look around the soccer world and see all those teams look upon us with envy and scorn as they struggle to mimic our seemingly infallible business model... thank goodness the powers that be had the foresight and fortitude to resist the temptations of the modern
football era... instead of listening to all the experts and simply taking the easy way out by making the necessary improvements on the field and in the front office, we chose the path never traveled... we are truly pioneers in our field... sometimes you just have to have faith in the people that have always conducted themselves in a respectful and honest fashion... most fans aren't so fortunate, they will never know what it's like to follow a team that treats everyone in and around the club as if they were an extended member of the family... all
for one I say... so when you wake up this morning, please
try not to gloat when you see rival fans pacing back and forth waiting
for their respective teams to pull the usual panic buys, just say nothing and be thankful that it isn't you... like I've always said, this is why you stay the course... this is when the real benefits of having someone in charge
for over 2 decades really pays off... have a great day fellow Gunners
They are in the CL but so what... we have been
for 20 years and this year didn't manage it... again so what, hopefully next
season we remedy it so this
season try harder and we are in the Europa which will be interesting and is another route to CL
football.
Theo Walcott may have scored 20 goals
for Arsenal last
season, but in this campaign he can't buy a League game from Arsene Wenger and the rumours are that the 28 year old is desperate to move in January to seek first team
football to
try and get a good enough run to impress the England manager Gareth Southgate ahead of the World Cup Finals in Russia this summer.
wenegr is in the twilight years of his arsenal career now he might or might not see out the full term of his contract, i would image he wont give up but if he do nt get a big prize this
season or next his desire might dwindle even more the board have seen what a shambles man united have gone through and the expense of failure, if they do nt get the next appointment right the board is
trying to give themselves as much time to identify a replacement and in the correct time unless wenger leaves at short notice, i think if he had won the c / l all thought years ago we would be looking at a different story i think he would have left at the end if that contract as he would be at the peak of his powers and could of gone anywhere he like across europe, but he didn't win and here we are now, i respect the man
for what he has done
for us and english
football a modern day herbert chapmen he is but even old chappy had his end of and era and wenger will have his end its just how will it play out hopefully a winner
of course no team wants to lose but I can guarantee you that the reaction by the Chelski fans after today's results are nowhere near what would have occurred if we shit the bed on opening day... the difference is they have tasted EPL success on more than one occasion recently, they have won the Champions League and they have done it with 3 different managers in the last 12 years with a similar, if not smaller, wage bill than us... in comparison, we have been experiencing our own personal Groundhog Day with nothing to show
for it but a few silvery trinkets that would barely wet the appetite of a world - class club... so it's time
for Wenger to stop gloating over our week one escape act and make some substantial moves before this window closes or I fear that things will take a horrible turn when the inevitable happens... living on a knife's edge is no way to go through a full
season of
football and regardless of what side of the argument you fall on, you could feel high levels of toxicity in the air and that was friggin week one... I would much rather someone
tried their best and failed, than took half - measures and hoped
for the best
So if,
for example, you happened to be a top - class
footballer that plays around 60 games a
season, often three a week, and most of your opponents spend most of their time kicking you or
trying to kick you... that would probably do it.
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
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
Sanches has been heavily linked with an exit from the Bavarian giants
for weeks, as after struggling to find his best form last
season, he wants regular
football to
try and rediscover the level he displayed
for Benfica and at Euro 2016 where he was influential in Portugal's triumph.
I was actually
trying out
for the basketball team after
football season and Richard Diaz, Adam Orr, and Nick Jepsen came to practice one night...» No, no, no bro, you need to come join the wrestling team.»
This is a decent article, yet the negatives from fans are still there, I would love to see arsenal like I did at the end of the 90's and at the beggining of the 2nd millennium but it doesn't mean in order to do so I would buy all the best players in world, I would get a rich owner to put his filthy money in, change the manager every 2 years to do so, there's so much wrong in
football nowadays that yes it's still a sport but there's more focus on the filthy amounts of money being spent on clubs and players that I think attracts more attention than the game itself, now that is wrong and it's very wrong, even our owner though not like the arabs or Russians, yet the yank is clueless about the tradition of our game, it's just sad, so the fact that Wenger has remained
for this long through all these changes that have occurred whilst the money game has elvolved, it makes me happy that arsenal do not spend stupid amounts of money on players, we don't
try and buy the league, hell we even tight with wages and transfer fees, I'm glad it's like that, though our
season ticket is a rip off I still don't mind it because at least we are not like the other supreme teams, there's a bit of tradition left at our club, yet you go to man shitty or Chelski, there is no tradition, it's all about buying ur way all the way to the top, on the other hand spuds don't know what to make of them besides how the heck have they finished above us?
when per and kos played together kos was always having to cover behind per
for the over the top ball into space, and yesterday he wasnt gabriel was tracking across to help kos and likewise it looked like it could develop into a top partnership However i do not think per will stay on the bench all
season, as captain / vice captain wenger wont allow it Is it me or ever since the WC and retiring from international
football, does mertesacker look less motivated to play, he isnt even
trying to run back whenever the ball is played over him and he is always taking the easiest possible option Hope that we can sell per in the summer and buy van dijk but i very much doubt there is a club out there that will want to buy mertesacker
Villanova
football trying to take something positive away from
season to forget Not much has gone right
for Villanova this
season, but the Wildcats have one last chance to take something positive with them when they host Delaware on Saturday.
After craving more
football for so long It can be tempting
for fans to
try and interpret results and performances and translate them into analysis
for the
season ahead.
I just hope your all ready to be told «we
tried our best» and «we wont be held to ransom
for over the top valuations» when we do nt recruit and basically forfeit CL
football next
season.
My fellow columnist Christopher Walsh has written some informative articles about the proposed performance buzz dividend which the
Football Index is planning to bring in
for the start of the new
season and how potential profits can be made, but the focus of this article is to
try and answer a burning question
for most traders, when is the best time to buy and sell your shares?
The former Barcelona legend was actually very high on the list of potential replacements
for Rijkaard after the 2007/08
season, but instead found himself at Barcelona B. Afterwards he had a stint at Roma which was short - lived and disappointing — he seemed lost,
trying to implement somewhat of the Barca system with non-Barca players, and the non-Barca
football culture in the club or city of Rome.
I have
tried many times this
season to put into words my feelings
for this team from a
football fan perspective but i think you have done that perfectly.
If anyone wants an intellectual exercise to do, maybe you could think of some more full backs we could play at centre half — and vice versa — or midfielders who, in their first
season of first team
football could
try their own position
for one game, but also
try out BOTH fullback positions.
However, this will mean he will miss out on their clash with Arsenal, which is a massive game
for both clubs as they
try and secure Champions League
football for next
season.
