It was bad enough when the likes of Cesc Fabregas signed for clubs like Barcelona who were not in direct competition with the Gunners, but losing Ashley Cole to Chelsea, Nasri to Man City or perhaps worst of all Robin van Persie was not only painful for the fans because it strengthened a rival while weakening us, thereby making any chance of us winning the Premier League or other domestic trophy smaller.

Whether or not you feel that a protest is necessary for change is a debate that can be held in the comments, because although some will feel it is the only way that fans can make club officials see want what is wanted, others will say that Wenger deserves more respect than to be forced out the club by protest and a lack of support when he is only following Kroenke's orders.

there is no doubting that Arsene has helped to provide us with some incredible footballing moments in the formative years of his managerial career at Arsenal, but that certainly doesn't and shouldn't mean that he has earned the right to decide when and how he should leave this club... there have been numerous managers at each of the biggest clubs in Europe throughout the last decade who have waged far more successful campaigns than ours yet somehow and someway each were given their walking papers because they failed to meet the standards laid out by the hierarchy of their respective clubs... of course that doesn't mean that clubs should simply follow the lead of others, especially if clubs of note have become too reactionary when it comes to issues of termination, for whatever reasons, but there should be some logical discourse when it comes to the setting of parameters for a changing of the guard... in the case of Arsenal, this sort of discourse was largely stifled when the higher - ups devised their sinister plan on the eve of our move to the Emirates... by giving Wenger a free pass due to supposed financial constraints he, unwittingly or not, set the bar too low... it reminds me of a landlord who says he will only rent to «professional people» to maintain a certain standard then does a complete about face when the market is lean and vacancies are up... for those who rented under the original mandate they of course feel cheated but there is little they can do, except move on, especially if the landlord clearly cares more about profitability than keeping their word... unfortunately for the lifelong fans of a football club it's not so easy to switch allegiances and frankly why should they, in most cases we have been around far longer than them... so how does one deal with such an untenable situation... do you simply shut - up and hope for the best, do you place the best interests of those with only self - serving agendas above the collective and pray that karma eventually catches up with them, do you run away with your tail between your legs and only return when things have ultimately changed, do you keep trying to find silver linings to justify your very existence, do you lower your expectations by convincing yourself it could be worse or do you stand up for what you believe in by holding people accountable for their actions, especially when every fiber of your being tells you that something is rotten in the state of Denmark

You're damn right bruv... arsenal fans on here should know one thing: all other (big epl) clubs want arsenal to fail - reason; they are presently failing...

Well we are all making our contributions, moreover our contributions are decent individually, Wenger knows the direction he is heading towards when it comes to transfers, when he speaks with the press don't rely on his words, he speaks with the press sometimes to encourage the fans and conceal the truth in him.nevertheless my verdict concerning this issue of alexis sanchez and arsenal is that, wenger should keep hold to his words by not selling alexis, he should allow him to see off his contract if he refuses to sign because next season alexis will turn 29, he has already at the pick of his career, by allowing him to stay we can mount title challenge come next season and this will really give us an advantage even for him to o sign another contract with arsenal, arsenal is a big club, they should how to hold, encourage and lure their best players to renew their contract rather loosing them to other top clubs, especially title rivers

You might be right there but it is better not to assume before you talk because when you do that it seems you know.Moeover for those kind of fans its their business you have no right to tell them this or that about if they envy other clubs as their support.Let them do what they want for they also have choices.

It is bad enough for Arsenal fans when there is a transfer window open and we have to wait and wait without the club spending money while Arsene Wenger gives a gallic shrug of the shoulders and tells us that he really is working hard but there is just nobody out there, except that all of the other clubs in the Premier League and around Europe seem to be able to track down these shy and elusive creatures called professional footballers.

Yes I know that it might be a little bit petty and small minded for Arsenal fans to take some pleasure from the suffering of others, but Alex Oxlade - Chamberlain is a former player who showed our club no love or respect when forcing his transfer to our Premier League rivals Liverpool during the summer transfer window, so that makes him fair game in my book.

When you hear that Arsenal are one of the clubs linked with a striker that scored more goals in the group stages of the Champions League last season than any other player, with a stunning nine goals from just six games, most Arsenal fans would start rubbing their hands together with anticipation.

Walking out on a cup final early is poor saying the things after is poor we have had the most consistancy of any pl club for 20 years it goes bad we lose and we show no honor in defeat i never mentioned wenger i mentioned the lack of support in a cup final was sad and by walking out it showed we've been spoiled city did nt leave the semi early last year when we beat em they did nt leave early wehen they lost in league one and i cant stand city im arsenal through and through we won a cup last year and the year before were in another cup final and tempemental fans leave early even though it takes alot to get to a cup final maybe you need to lose more to lose respectable its hard it sucks but its a cup final bigger than the management our opinions for a day its about how you show you solidarity as a club win or lose every other club in england would of taken our spot in a heartbeat if they could of and we lea e early that shows spoilage and it was embarrassing to see we need to be stronger as supporters newcastle does nt like ashley yet they still show up and when was the last time they won a cup?

But many Arsenal fans believe that we blew a great chance last season when all the other big clubs were in various phases of upheaval and transition.

DT like the vast majority of fans has passion for his club and he tells it as most of us believe.We are led to believe Wenger is paid # 9m per year and he continues to take us backwards and remains unaccountable.Why is this allowed to happen when in any other walk of life he would be out of a job.

There is no real answer to the question you have posed because this club has once again hedged their bets on doing the bare minimum then hoping for the best... if they were serious about changing the stagnant culture that has permeated the club since our move from the Highbury, we would have immediately released and / or moved several players in the early days of the window... this would have demonstrated to the fans that they were serious about addressing our obvious inadequacies... likewise this would have forced them to bring in replacements because they couldn't have used the lame excuse Wenger is presently spewing about having too many players... we functionally have the same amount of players as we did when the window first opened but he didn't say jack about it then... he simply waited until the inevitable happened then pulled out his excuse Rolodex, closed his eyes and randomly drew the «too many players» card... the more he opens his mouth, the more I understand his «god» complex when it relates to all things Arsenal... what other manager could continually do the same dumb shit, not address obvious concerns for years, speak to the fans in such a condescending manner, face enormous criticism from many of his former star players and be the architect of so many failed player signings yet be one of the highest paid managers with the longest tenure in Europe... maybe Kroenke is colourblind and instead of seeing all the red flags he can only see the GREEN ones ($ $ $)

The biggest media coverage fans from other clubs have received was when they boycotted the first 5 or 10 minutes of the game.

Usmanov would buy this club no doubt, Dagote another if its the right time for him to do so as he said he would when he got other business ventures taken care of... BOTH are ARSENAL FANS & would want what's best for the club & its fFANS & would want what's best for the club & its fansfans.

ot of theresnetment seems to stem from fans being angry that their billionaireowner is not willing to prop up the club financially when other owners are.

I think it has reached a point where enough is enough.the only way to save our club is if all fans are singing one thing and are together.there is no way we will anything while some guys sing only one arsene wenger and others wenger out.we need to open our eyes and sing one song altogether only then can we propel change that is essential for our beloved club.if we keep going on this road then some fans will cme and regret when our club is officially a mid table team by then it would hve been too late for change.i told guys and will keep saying which club in there right mind would sell a key player of there squad with just days to go before window is shut.its clear we weren't intrested to invest into the market and yet again the club is showing us how ambitionless they are.sad but true our season has ended before it has even kicked off!!.

Lemar is class act but do nt expect it arsenal is a club buys one exceptional talent each year and lose two this year they have already got two saad and laca its just rumour created to show fans how hard they r working in the window lemar is better than other lads in monaco he is going no where this year he will get monaco full price of the money if he comes in arsenal they will be champions of champion only one condition when Sanchez leaves he will be in otherwise no

If you truly support a club you can never stop supporting it, i do nt know why, but you cant, you do nt have to support a club to be a fan of football but when you do when you've chosen a side, you cant dare to look at any other club with the same passion.

Although it will be incredibly difficult to ever match his contributions on the pitch, it's vitally important for a former club legend, like Henry, to publicly address his concerns regarding the direction of this club... regardless of those who still feel that Henry has some sort of agenda due to the backlash he received following earlier comments he made on air regarding Arsenal, he has an intimate understanding of the game, he knows the fans are being hosed and he feels some sense of obligation, both professionally and personally, to tell it like he sees it... much like I've continually expressed over the last couple months, this team isn't evolving under this current ownership / management team... instead we are currently experiencing a «stagnant» phase in our club's storied history... a fact that can't be hidden by simply changing the formation or bringing in one or two individuals... this team needs fundamental change in the way it conducts business both on and off the pitch or it will continue to slowly devolve into a second tier club... regardless of the euphoria surrounding our escape act on Friday evening, as it stands, this club is more likely to be fighting for a Europa League spot for the foreseeable future than a top 4 finish... we can't hope for the failures of others to secure our place in the top 4, we need to be the manufacturers of our own success by doing whatever is necessary to evolve as an organization... if Wenger, Gazidis and Kroenke can't take the necessary steps following the debacle they manufactured last season, their removal is imperative for our future success... unfortunately, I strongly believe that either they don't know how to proceed in the present economic climate or they are unwilling to do whatever it takes to turn this ship around... just look at the current state of our squad, none of our world class players are under contract beyond this season, we have a ridiculous wage bill considering the results, we can't sell our deadwood because we've mismanaged our personnel decisions and contractual obligations, we haven't properly cultivated our younger talent and we might have become one of the worst clubs ever when it comes to way we handle our transfer business, which under Dein was one of our greatest assets... it's time to get things right!!!

much like when a country can't divulge highly classified information publicly for obvious economic and military reasons, a professional soccer organization must keep certain things in - house so they don't devalue a player, expose a weakness, provide info that could give an opposing club leverage in future negotiations and / or give them vital intel regarding a future match, but when dishonesty becomes the norm the relationship between cub and fan will surely deteriorate... in our particular case, our club has done an absolutely atrocious job when it comes to cultivating a healthy and honest relationship with the media or their fans, which has contributed greatly to our lack of success in the transfer market... along with poor decisions involving weekly wages, we can't ever seem to get true market value for most of our outgoing players and other teams seem to squeeze every last cent out of us when we are looking to buy; why wouldn't they, when you go to the table with such a openly desperate and dysfunctional team like ours, you have all the leverage; made even worse by the fact that who wouldn't want to see our incredibly arrogant and thrifty manager squirm during the process... the real issue at this club is respect, a word that appears to be entirely lost on those within our hierarchy... this is the starting point from which all great relationships between club and supporters form... this doesn't mean that a team can't make mistakes along the way, that's just human nature, it's about how they chose to deal with these situations that will determine if this relationship flourishes or devolves..

Kenny you are correct of course.Someonevthat is obviously in total love of Arsenal Football Club But also ridiculously blinkered when it comes to Wenger.You and I together with many thousands upon thousands of, shall we say, more mature fans, (in other words old codgers) will of course recall much much darker periods in this clubs history than what we are going through now.But today is the present and not yesterday.Wenger is yesterday's man (as agreed by 81 % of this sites members).

As for demanding players are bought and using that against us even when we have had such a great run — well it sounds like fans of other clubs to me.

The irony of it is that when Arsene retires leaving the club financially stable and might bring the other manager success, some of us fans won't remember that Mr. Wenger laid the platform.

To start with, Ivan Gazidis tried to soften up the fans with a video detailing the Gunners achievements (and profits) and the Chief Executive was booed and heckled as he tried to explain that the club had «over-performed» when compared to the spending of other big clubs, and used the examples of keeping Ozil and Sanchez as proof that the Board were not just financially motivated.

@ Ivan yes the older fans r quite aware that arsenal was in d same category with d likes of Everton and Aston villa before the arrival of Wenger, while arsenal has climb mountains courtesy of Wenger's ingenuity, hard work, smartness, and sheer brilliance the other ones has remained dormant and one eve suffered relegation,, even when d owners of of arsenal fc has not backed him with mighty cash, he transformed arsenal to one of d most valuable club in d world today, and one of d richest club in d world today, he didn't stop there, he went ahead to win 17 trophies for arsenal fc, it amazes me how some pple who has never contributed any thing to d growth of arsenal fc will be ranting every day here insulting the greatest manager in d history of afc bcos u could afford 10mb data is ridiculous, for ur information u have bragging right today as an arsenal fan courtesy of what Wenger offered u, the golden trophy, and 49 unbeaten run is something that can take another generation to match,

I even wonder if the fans watching the match at the emirates are sad about the results **** shame on them all for not seeing thingS from the right angle **** they are as deluded as wenger, they are very soft like most of our players, those fans watching arsenal when they play this bad and couldn't take a step are as inefficient as diaby who is a part of arsenal but virtually has a role to play, infact they have been on a long term injury since we turned to a laughing stock for other clubs.

That's why fans are upset... if there was a season when our club has a really good chance of winning we are playing just as awful, awful, awful as the others.

I am compelled to a feeling of utter contempt and carelessness from Wenger when it comes to the fans, he really diesnt give a damn about what we think as long as his way is being had and whether he is proved right, or for the 8th year, wrong that is still not the correct way to be, he should not be ruling the club from top to bottom in this way because he thinks nobody knows better than him, no other manager holds this power, not even the ones delivering silverware.

, the same team they condemned before the start of the EPL.Arsenal came into reckoning under Arsene wenger and he unarguably our most successful coach till date, i knew his kind of person as a manager before supporting arsenal and he made Arsenal what it is today not forgeting that he built our Emirate stadium because of his long term plan for the club.i can't but remember when other fans from other clubs tells me that Arsenal run a school - boy club because of our so called «match box Highbury stadium».
