Arteta is certainly
very talented, despite getting on in years, and will be hoping to get chance to impress Arsene Wenger before the

of talent in midfield right now.
Wenger still has one year on his contract and

As we enter the crucial run in to the
end of the
season, which is the time that we traditionally up our game to reach the Champions League positions, we also have another big advantage in that all

very tough games in the coming weeks, or maybe months if they do well.
That 6th spot is

Having not kicked a ball in anger for Arsenal since we were held to a no score draw by Chelsea at the
end of April
as they cruised to the Premier League title last
season, Danny Welbeck is understandably being treated with kid gloves by Arsene Wenger and the medical staff, but the England international forward is getting
very close to being able to play for us again.
In recent weeks however it seems
as if his future is
very much up in the air and that it may even be likely for Wenger to sign a new contract at the

But someone such
as Allegri would not only take it in his stride he would I believe relish the chance to have somebody next to him that understands the values
of the club (starting with
of course the fact we f**king HATE finishing behind those Pikies up the road and the
very minimum we must achieve is
ending the
season higher than them).
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».
This is an incredibly difficult question to answer for a variety
of reasons, most importantly because over the years our once vaunted «beautiful» style
of play has become a shadow
of it's former self, only to be replaced by a less than stellar «plug and play» mentality where players play out
of position and adjustments / substitutions are rarely forthcoming before the 75th minute... if you look at our current players,
very few would make sense in the traditional Wengerian system... at present, we don't have the personnel to move the ball quickly from deep - lying position, efficient one touch midfielders that can make the necessary through balls or the disciplined and pacey forwards to stretch defences into wide positions, without the aid
of the backs coming up into the final 3rd, so that we can attack the defensive lanes in the same clinical fashion we did years ago... on this current squad, we have only 1 central defender on staf, Mustafi, who seems to have any prowess in the offensive zone or who can even pass two zones through so that we can advance play quickly out
of our own
end (I have seen some inklings that suggest Holding might have some offensive qualities but too early to tell)... unfortunately Mustafi has a tendency to get himself in trouble when he gets overly aggressive on the ball... from our backs out wide, we've seen pace from the likes
of Bellerin and Gibbs and the spirited albeit offensively stunted play
of Monreal, but none
of these players possess the skill - set required in the offensive zone for the new Wenger scheme which requires deft touches, timely runs to the baseline and consistent crossing, especially when Giroud was playing and his ratio
of scored goals per clear chances was relatively low (better last year though)... obviously I like Bellerin's future prospects,
as you can't teach pace, but I do worry that he regressed last
season, which was obvious to Wenger because there was no way he would have used Ox
as the right side wing - back so often knowing that Barcelona could come calling in the off -
season, if he thought otherwise...
as for our midfielders, not a single one, minus the more confident Xhaka I watched played for the Swiss national team a couple years ago, who truly makes sense under the traditional Wenger model... Ramsey holds onto the ball too long, gives the ball away cheaply far too often and abandons his defensive responsibilities on a regular basis (doesn't score enough recently to justify): that being said, I've always thought he does possess a little something special, unfortunately he thinks so too... Xhaka is a little too slow to ever boss the midfield and he tends to telegraph his one true strength, his long ball play: although I must admit he did get a bit better during some points in the latter part
of last
season... it always made me wonder why whenever he played with Coq Wenger always seemed to play Francis in a more advanced role on the pitch...
as for Coq, he is way too reckless at the wrong times and has exhibited little offensive prowess yet finds himself in and around the box far too often... let's face it Wenger was ready to throw him in the trash heap when injuries forced him to use Francis and then he had the nerve to act like this was all part
of a bigger Wenger constructed plan... he like Ramsey, Xhaka and Elneny don't offer the skills necessary to satisfy the quick transitory nature
of our old offensive scheme or the stout defensive mindset needed to protect the defensive zone so that our offensive players can remain aggressive in the final third... on the front
end, we have Ozil, a player
of immense skill but stunted by his physical demeanor that tends to offend, the fact that he's been played out
of position far too many times since arriving and that the players in front
of him, minus Sanchez, make little to no sense considering what he has to offer (especially Giroud); just think about the quick counter-attack offence in Real or the space and protection he receives in the German National team's midfield, where teams couldn't afford to focus too heavily on one individual... this player was a passing «specialist» long before he arrived in North London, so only an arrogant or ignorant individual would try to reinvent the wheel and / or not surround such a talent with the necessary components... in regards to Ox, Walcott and Welbeck, although they all possess serious talents I see them in large part
as headless chickens who are on the injury table too much, lack the necessary first - touch and / or lack the finishing flair to warrant their inclusion in a regular starting eleven; I would say that,
of the 3, Ox showed the most upside once we went to a back 3, but even he became a bit too consumed by his pending contract talks before the
season ended and that concerned me a bit... if I had to choose one
of those 3 players to stay on it would be Ox due to his potential
as a plausible alternative to Bellerin in that wing - back position should we continue to use that formation... in Sanchez, we get one
of the most committed skill players we've seen on this squad for some years but that could all change soon, if it hasn't already
of course... strangely enough, even he doesn't make sense given the constructs
of the original Wenger offensive model because he holds onto the ball too long and he will give the ball up a little too often in the offensive zone... a fact that is largely forgotten due to his infectious energy and the fact that the numbers he has achieved seem to justify the means... finally, and in many ways most crucially, Giroud, there is nothing about this team or the offensive system that Wenger has traditionally employed that would even suggest such a player would make sense
as a starter... too slow, too inefficient and way too easily dispossessed... once again, I think he has some special skills and, at times, has showed some world - class qualities but he's lack
of mobility is an albatross around the necks
of our offence... so when you ask who would be our best starting 11, I don't have a clue because
of the 5 or 6 players that truly deserve a place in this side, 1 just arrived, 3 aren't under contract beyond 2018 and the other was just sold to Juve... man, this is theraputic because following this team is like an addiction to heroin without the benefits
Although I've found it
very cathartic to speak, vent and
end occasionally rant about all things Arsenal, we need to act carefully and intelligently right now or we're going to get played by this club even worse than at present... the pro-Wengerites and the suits, who represent a considerable proportion
of the
season ticket holders, don't want to believe that there is no plan and that Wenger has mailed it in for several years now or that things are going to get much worse before they get better... why would they... many have spent a considerable sum buying some
of the highest priced tickets in the World... they want to have a front row seat to see something special and to be seen doing so, which simply provides ample justification for the expense and the time invested... to many
of them, Wenger is the sun in their soccer universe... his awkward disposition, misplaced arrogance and his utter lack
of balls makes him a rather unusual cult figure, but the cerebral narrative seemed to embolden those who already felt pretty highly
of themselves... many might not even
of really liked football that much before his arrival and rarely games they weren't attending...
as such, they desperately believe that Wenger, and only Wenger, can supply them with their required fix... if he goes, they were wrong and that's a tough pill to swallow... they would have to admit that they were duped... they will definitely resent whoever made them feel this way, but
of course it will be too late by then... so when we go overboard with ridiculous comments bordering
of anarchy, it scares the shit out
of them and they shift their blame towards us rather than at those who really perpetrated this act
of treason... we aren't the enemy... we simply woke much earlier and the reason our comments have gotten more vile in recent years is out
of utter frustration... in order for any real change to occur at this club we need to bring
as many supporters
as possible with us or the big money interests will fade and our ultimate objective will be lost... so it's time to focus on the head instead
of the heart for now
Arsenal have been performing extremely well this

season.
we knew at the

end of the
season, it is all

In these their 13 games left, they will drop points massively and Arsenal will pick them up
as they are being dropped by them and will add them to the ones they'll collect and also to the ones they've already collected and put them all into their points bag at the Emirates Stadium which will become
very full and swell up at the
end of this PL
season's campaign.
IF you were a true supporter
of ARSENAL and followed the day to day running and goings on within the Club you might just have noticed we haven't been having the best
of seasons.In fact this has been going on now for quite a few seasons.In fact this has been just why the supporters (in the
very vast majority) totally blame the Manager.In case you are not familiar with him his name is Arsene Wenger.He is i believe totally to blame for our current plight with more than a little assistance from the Owner and the Board.The fan base is NOT
as divided
as you may believe.I don't believe there is ANY SUPPORTER who wishes him to continue.Some want it NOW meaning this morning some want it at the
end of the
season.A
very few wish him to go with his reputation intact at the
end of next
season when his contract is up.Can I just add this really is a
very few in number.

end of the
season I'm just happy we
as a club are financialy in a
very good position and the future is bright for us gooners

Why would Alexis do that These days when a player signs
as a «free agent» he will.ask for a signing on fee and his salary will be set high... depending upon his marketability.Defoe signed for Bournemouth on a «free» and received a
very healthy fee himself
as well
as a reported # 100k a week.Imahine what Alexis could negotiate in January... and after that he can just about «shut up shop»

as Arsenal are concerned... going through the motions until the
end of the

Arsenal have added Alexandre Lacazette and Sead Kolasinac to their evergrowing wage bill this summer,
as well
as increasing the size
of their squad, which Arsene Wenger already described
as «heavy» at the
end of last
season.It would appear that Alex Oxlade - Chamberlain has refused to sign his new contract with the Gunners, and this has left Wenger a
very big dilemma, especially after stating categorically that the Ox would be «100 %» playing for Arsenal this
season.

of Arsenal, but

of the backroom staff.
Just
as we did last
season, Arsenal added the Community Shield to the FA cup and although the Spaniard is well aware that this pre-

very significant.
It would still be a shock to see him leave Man Utd

very short in midfield.

Arsenal
ended the year in the Top Three
as usual, but they are now
very far behind the current leaders Chelsea and are unlikely to get much closer before the
end of the

end of the table.
no not at this time Wenger is looking highly motivated,
as is clear in all the press meets he is looking
very lively and enthusiastic lets do it at the
end of season when we are the champions

very soon.Coq was superb and just put Silava our

end.
