The sad truth is that we are just a couple of players away from having a very strong starting 11... Wenger's fixation
with Walcott and mertesakher as starting players remains a mystery
to me... neither have the quality of a top team like arsenal... I am not a giroud hater but he is still too inconsistent and the
big question is whether welbeck can push him in a way Walcott won't... Campbell has done well and has
moved ahead of Walcott and, ox for sure but there is still a question about how much more he can improve... Elneny is certainly an upgrade over arteta and flamini whether he will make it I don't know just hope that he does but arguably wenger could have been more ambitious... That leaves a top quality striking option... There is no doubt that wenger deluded himself over the summer and that needs
to be corrected ASAP... Draxler dybala aube and even griezman
with a
big enough
big could have been prized in summer... january not a good time for this but it is not difficult
to find better options than Walcott ox or Campbell... All a question of whether wenger wants
to win EPL on his terms or wants
to win this for the
club

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
