THE WENGER THREAD

[begeegs]

I have to admit that I didn't think that Wenger was going to go to a 4-4-2 despite our stuttering attacking play this year, but he did (albeit against mighty Burnley). I hope that he keeps playing that formation and we may actually see Podolski turn into the striker that he should be.

Personally, I'd love to see him stick with this formation as I am sick to death of his 4-1-4-1, 4-2-3-1, 4-3-3 - whatever you call it crap. It is what made him successful in the Premier League and once he abandoned this formation (along with other variables), we have suffered. Granted, we all know of his other many shortcomings, but please revert back to this formation pretty puleeeze!

Is He Gone Yet?

i just found out that our u-21s got 'relegated' last year but pravda doesn't show it. our u-21's were so poor last year - finishing 14th, that we were 'relegated' when the division split, leaving behind liverpool, city, united, chavs, southampton, spuds, west ham - all the top clubs, and now our talented youngsters face the elites of bolton, stoke, boro, and wolves....

our division from Pravda :

note the lack of "division 2" there...but not on the PL site :

i bet that's how it looks in the programme too - so no-one questions that our youth team is doing as poorly as the first team, which i bet is the same cause - lack of preparation, organisation and tika tika

am i wrong ?

Loads of Anderlecht fans in the east upper, to my right, weird, kept quiet all game until they equalised. Club officials or fans?

Go on Merse...destroy him.

serious question - is this team better than the 2012 or 2013 teams ? - i don't think so, i think we get worse every year.

and not only are flamini and arteta not good enough any more, we don't have a single player in the reserves to step in for them.

total mismanagement of the whole club.
