Replies: 15

The last seasons when George Graham was manager we were desperate for a defensive midfielder. Arsene realised this and the first thing he did was to buy PV. He has also not been afraid to spend money on other players, Petit, Overmars Henry etc.etc

Under Arsene we had world class players in a world ...

You should be ashamed

http://www.onlinegooner.com/exclusive/index.php?id=1489

Maxton,whenever somebody is critical of Arsene Wenger we always get this type of rant from somebody. Get a grip mate.

First let me state that I believe Arsene Wenger is the best manager we have ever had.
However, for the last few years ...

"They are also the two baskets with the hawks flying above them"

Sorry this one is lost on me, I don't get the reference.

In answer to your other question, I use a 6 not a 9 because it looks more like a capital G.

PS Is it too late to buy another keeper?

Agree 100% with last two posts. So near and yet so far again. If we had bought the players we needed at the beginning of the season and then just missed out on a trophy come May, at least you could feel that we'd had a proper go at it. At the moment you just know we're two maybe three players away ...

The Northbank used to do a good rendition of "When you're smiling" especially when we used to exagerate the last line..
"The whole... world... smiles ...with.... you" and then cheer.
Or " Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner" was always sung well and after the last line "Maybe it's because I'm A ...

I know football is all about opinions but how anyone can see any reason to play Eboue other than at full back is beyond me. ( Mind you, the way Sagna is playing at the moment it's difficult to decide between the two ). But Arsenal will not win anything this season if we keep playing Eboue and Diaby ...

Vermaelen looks a quality buy after all, but it's deja vu and groundhog day all over again this season without buying the players we all know we need to improve the squad. Wenger's the greatest manager we have ever had but he has definitely lost the plot in the last couple of seasons. We are not ...

Good business by the manager in ANC season

It's only good business if we actually spend the money on quality replacements.
Wenger is already saying the same things that he said last summer and that he hasn't got anyone lined up at the moment.Hopefully he is bluffing, so that teams we want to buy from don't put their prices up if they think ...

The worst fans in the world?

What right do us so called fans have to question Wenger?

Er...isn't that part of being a football fan. It certainly is if you've supported Arsenal for forty years. Some of the posts on here seem to think that anyone who finds fault with Wenger somehow isn't a true fan.
We all know that Wenger is ...

The article states.......Flamini made Fabregas look good as he constantly won the ball and gave Cesc the space his needed to work his magic....
EXACTLY the reason we should have kept or replaced Flamini. Cesc has not had such a good season because he has had little or no support in midfield.

I,m surprised at the reaction to this article. Perhaps it,s a bit over the top suggesting we don't renew our season tickets but otherwise i found myself agreeing with what was written.
I too think that one of the biggest errors ever made at Arsenal was not replacing Flamini (or why not have given ...

We are in exactly the same situation as we were at the end of last season.
Most of us knew then what needed to be done. A defensive midfielder to replace Flamini, a quality central defender, sell Adebayor (and Eboue and the other dross) and get a quality striker in.
None of these things were done ...

I also wish he'd listened to me and the 99.9% of supporters who keep saying we need to buy a DEFENSIVE MIDFIELD PLAYER to replace Flamini.

It's ironic that before Arsene arrived, we were all desperate to sign a defensive midfielder then. Arsene's first signing ? PV. Why can't he see that we require ...
