Post #348 applies today as I knew it would.

 

We had enough chances but with no striker/centre forward on the pitch what did Wenger expect? Plus he played the same tactics as against Man Utd and it was far too easy to hit us on the counter. It was pathetic really.

 

£25-£30m for Adebeyor, £15m for Toure, £16m for Henry. He has bought Vermaelen and Arshavin and that's it and even then Wenger couldn't cope with the £15m price tag for Arshavin. What a joke.

If the Arsenal board are offered £40m by Barca for Fabregas in the Summer they will snap their arm off and bank the lot as Wenger wont spend a penny. He already knows he is getting Chamakh for free in the Summer and that will be his one signing.

I'd happily see the current board go along with Wenger and David Dein come in and run the club under new ownership and invest heavily in a new team with a manager who can coach defensive tactics as well as attacking and who will spend money. 5 years/6 seasons with no trophies and all Wenger can do it trot out the same old bullsh!t and i've had enough of it. As Dave said Wenger has cost us the title this season with not spending.

Wenger has even had the gall to come and say Chelsea played negatively ffs. No they soaked up the pressure from an over attacking team with no striking threat and then hit us on the counter and it's an easy 3 points. Does he not understand teams will play tactics that will get them 3 points and not play how he would like them to play

I haven't seen the article but apparently George Graham has been more than critical of the current Arsenal team/tactics and rightly so. A manager who built a team with a rock solid defence and won titles by doing so must look at the current set up and bury his face in his hands.

 

Sky Sports | Football News | Premier League | Arsenal | Wenger claims lack of cash

And so he proves my point. Be patient? You ******* what? What is 5-6 years if it is not patient FFS? Absolutely deluded. And as to say no money then where the hell has all the transfer money gone for those he recently sold, transfers in 2 players to Man City of £40-£45 million in the last year? Oh that's right straight into the Arsenal bank account never to be seen again

He is so full of cr4p he treats the fans as morons. Glad to see the couple of comments on that page so far mean i'm not the only Gooner who thinks he is full of cr4p.

Another trophyless season and not only will Fabregas go but so will any others who have any desire to win trophies and get offers from abroad.

My Father was spot on when he said all the Arsenal board are interested in is securing a top 4 spot in the Premiership each season and getting as far in the Champions League as possible to maximize cash but spending as little as possible to achieve it. That is exactly what they are doing and there is no serious intention to win any trophy because it costs too much to build a team capable of beating Utd or Chelsea.

It's just great isn't it having a brilliant stadium but no trophies in the cabinet and a team that is getting worse not better. But that's ok as the stadium is the most important thing, right?

 

The answer is Wenger spends some money. If that is always going to be a no under Wenger then he has to go as there is no doubt money needs spending.

 

It would have to be someone in the Ancelotti/Hiddink mould in terms of experience and success. Unfortunately I think those 2 along with Ferguson, Capello and Wenger are the best managers out there and there aren't really any others who could do the job. Barca's coach is obviously superb at Barca but he knows the Spanish league inside out, i'm not sure he could do the same job in the Premiership.

 

i'd rather have George back, at least he'd fix the defence even if we did go back to 1-0 victories every game of the season
