You say they haven't got the bollocks, but I think they'd be foolish to sack him.

We're 2nd, only 3pts behind the experienced, expensively assembled ManUre, and some way AHEAD of mega rich Citeh and the hugely experienced, and very expensively put together double winners Chelsea!

We also got to a Wembley cup final and beat possibly the best team ever to have played the game, Barcelona... and we have a cup quarter final against ManUre coming up.

It really hasn't been a bad season at all, and considering we haven't the luxury of bringing a £30m Berbatov off the bench, or signing a £30m+ Edin Dzeko or £50M Torres to help us out, we should be proud.

Things aren't perfect - far from it - and yes, Wenger's bizarre loyalty to Denilson and Almunia is maddening, but neither is it all doom and gloom - they're only reserves these days, as the talented Wilshere and Szczesny have come through and into the first team...something Wenger should be given credit for, I suppose.

As I said, far from perfect, but not doom and gloom either.

Some of you lot really need to take a step back. Yes his loyalty to certain players is just unbelievable but it could be a lot worse. I fully expect him to make the right changes with the squad but if he doesn't and we don't win anything then I won't be happy, thats for sure.

:lol: Sounds familiar. For 3 or 4 years there have been glaring deficiencies which we all thought couldn't be ignored. Come the end of the season Arsene & the club make the right noises about looking to address the situation, yet once the ST renewal money is in, surprise surprise we get no changes or a couple of budget/unheard of/inexperienced players.

You're probably right but hes slowly addressing the issues. We've now got a very good keeper in Szczesny finally, we have a tall commanding centre back in Djourou.

All he needs to do is toss Denilson and Diaby in the bin, buy a defensive midfielder, sign a player to replace Squillaci and sign a striker who can take the load off Van Persie.

I just hope he will do that. 8) :oops:

We are good but not that good, just Chavski are shite without a couple of players and the manager's undermined by the owner, Shitty were thrown together and do not yet have the team unit and they are blessed with a negative tosser of a manger but I think they're doing well from what they were, I would love to have their defensive ethic when we're one nil up. United will not be that bad again surely :shock:

The filth have under achieved for years and are only just getting to where they should be thanks to a stroke of dutch luck and a monkey in form.

If Diaby had been fit at the start of the season, Wilshire would have been a cameo appearance this season. Chesney was luck of injuries to the other 2 t**ts. :o

The season in January was there f0r the taking , he chose not to reinforce the squad and we will be nearly men AGAIN.

This season will not happen again. :cry:

City will gel more and buy more, The russian has realised his error and will start spending heavily AGAIN and the Glazers know now that even their players are vulnerable to City's money so they will have to seriously bolster their squad. :(

We should have won this league but we won't and for that AW should bear the full reponsibilty and his position should be questioned. :x

He is one of the highest paid manager yet his winning ratio in finals is exactly 50%. That is awful. :oops:

Wenger would not have picked him if either Average or Flappy hadnt got injured.Remember after Szczesny played so well in his debut at OT he was dropped for the Polish clown to come back into the team :oops:
Yes, of course Wenger deserves credit for Szczesny!

Wenger signed him, for a start. He brought him to the club, put him through the academy, sent him on loan to gain experience at Barnet, has spoken very highly of him all along, has resisted signing a new keeper for some time because of his faith in his current keepers, and at the tender age of 20, he looks like being given the chance of being our long term number 1!

You can't ignore all that - unless you're blinded by your dislike for someone, I suppose... :wink:

Highlight... meeting up with Mikey B... (what a GOONER... love him) (Nutter) and his mate Paul ....

Lowlight... obviously dropping 2 points... Denilson, kicking the ball out for a corner (for them) at the end of the first half, his overall non-control of the football during the game, his non existent tackling.... WHY, what is the reason for him breathing.... I hate the clunge, (along with the doppy unit that is Diaby....) I just made the kick off, because of work, and to see these two complete axe wounds lining up for us, made me think, WHY am I here... I could be earning money at work.... I really do despair, but it's the whole fault of the complete tosser in charge.... :banghead: :banghead:
