Mertz should never have been our captain in the first place... who has ever heard of a team that makes 11th
hour transfer buys (Arteta & Mertz) then seemingly places those same individuals into prominent leadership positions from the get - go... indicative of the problems that have permeated our clubhouse for the better part of 7 years under the Kroenke & Wenger... what is wrong with the players chosen
and / or the management style of Wenger that doesn't develop
and / or encourage strong leadership from within... Mertz was the fine collecting lackey from year one... this is what happens when you don't get world - class players because many times they want to have a voice on
and off the pitch
and this can't happen when you play for a fragile manager who has developed a coddling
wage structure where everyone is rewarded for simply wearing the shirt
and participating in the process... not enough balance between performance
and pay, combined with the obvious favoritism shown to some players regardless of their glaring lack of production... remember that Ramsey has played in positions that make no sense considering his skill - set (out wide)
and has forced other players off the field or into equally unfamiliar positions with little or no justification (let's remember when you read articles about how Ramsey's goals this upcoming season being the potential X-factor for our success that this is the same individual who didn't score a goal until the final week last season)... this of course is
just one example of many... before I hear another word from Mertz I want this club to address the fact that no former player of any real consequence has any important role in the management structure of this club, yet several former Gunners have expressed serious interest in
just such an endeavor (Henry, Viera, Adams, Bergkamp...
just to name a few legends)... there is only one answer: an extremely insecure manager!!!
