for instance he beats wenger these
weekend, then boy i think we will be in
for a long summer but if not, then that my friends might mean us not buying another
player... Mourinho knows what he is doing by creating a controversy right before our
game
With the way we played i guess Wenger was aiming

players since most if not all of them will be facing a very tough Everton side this
weekend.
West Ham had a big boost having beaten Chelsea at the

for over 10 years.
The other big reason
for Arsenal to ensure that we perform well in the remaining league
games is the confidence and form that comes with a good run and how that could improve the chances of us winning the Europa League, so while he may want to rest the best

games I think that Wenger should give almost as much focus to the league
games, starting with the Saints this
weekend.
Despite Batshuayi struggling to make an impact in the two
games he's started the Blues this season, as well as scoring an own goal in their 2 - 1 win over Spurs at the

Now I think there is still reasons to be cheerful, I agree Man C & Chelski have spent & bought some good
players, we all understand that 5 of those teams might be in the CL proper which is a huge distraction
for those 4 - 5 teams.Chelsea will not be able to field the same 13 - 14
players all season, as
for Man C they were very frail at the back last season, add to that 2 flying wing backs and I'm not sure they will be any better this coming season.LFC will most probably have CL as well if they qualify and haven't exactly bought great
players apart from Salah who could be a good aquasistion
for them.Spuds have sold a good
player & strengthened a rival & still not bought a single
player yet, Man U have bought 2 good
players & in Lukaku have a proven goal scorer in the PL but if they play the same dour way they did last season & with the added
games the CL brings will they perform week in week out in the league??? As
for Everton yes they have released a lot of
players and also brought in a lot too to give better quality in the squad as they have Europa league the same as US the big difference is I think we will play squad
players & youngsters maybe with a few senior
players all the way up to the QF This tells me most of our rivals will pave the way
for us to field pretty much the same side every
weekend in the PL thus giving us an advantage over all the other 5 teams playing in the CL & Europa, just remember the League has been won in the last 2 seasons by teams NOT in Europe YES we are this season but I think Wenger will put all his eggs in the League basket and field an under strength side in all comps hence focusing on the League until we are no longer in the race.

Even though it was only the first
game of pre-season
for Arsenal, with another
game in Australia then two in China and then the Emirates Cup to go before the Community Shield the
weekend before the Premier League kicks off, surely Arsene Wenger would want to make the most of this time and get his best
players fit and up to speed.
Which is the lack of
game time that a few Arsenal
players are gettning (speaking mostly in reference to Chambers, Gibbs and Campbell) im paraphrasing here but the basis of his argument is how do you expect a
player to be able come of the bench and be capable of doing a job
for team and perform competently with a very limited or no
game experience... Considering we have Chelsea at the
weekend it seems t would be a great time to start giving those
players game experience and resting a few of the starting 11 perhaps with the exception of Walcott i'd like
for him to get more
game time at Cf... his finishing is diabolical... and learning how to pay as a striker takes time.

well not until todays
games have completed anyway... I am a bit of stickler

for being top of the League, we are not really top of the league until everyone has finished their
