Adam Kemp – Wenger is turning Arsenal into the new Liverpool…….
Oh the wins keep coming, coming and coming! by Adam Kemp
Arsenal’s league form is almost an illustration of the age and impotence of the once great Wenger. As this man ages without grace his methods seem to be dissipating from under his grasp! The lack of creativity and clinical finishing has seen Arsenal fire blanks with a sense of utter embarrassment. Wenger may be taking Viagra to fix his personal impotence and yet refuses to purchase the quality players that we need to put the spunk back in our play!
The match against Aston Villa was horrendous and was a performance that we have been accustomed too over the past couple of seasons. Arsenal may be a big club in terms or support, facilities, finance and reputation however the quality of the team is far off the minimum level required. Tonight was yet another opportunity for the Arsenal to go out and play with some style and class to attempt to prove me wrong!
After one minute the impact of Walcott was crystal clear that maybe – just maybe – that this game was there for the taking. Walcott is a terrific footballer and still the contractual obligations are yet to be addressed. What on earth is going on with the lack of conviction in signing him to the terms he clearly deserves? I guarantee that he will be sold or become a free agent depicting the usual trend of moving our best players to our rivals. The feeder club culture that has emerged from the profit machine that is Arsenal will continue to prevail! Yet Arsenal continued to press and retained the ball with glimpses of the old Arsenal! This momentary illusion was completely revealed when the defence decided to play Sunday league hospital balls to Everton’s forwards.
Sczezny was well easily beaten by a mediocre effort from the giant Belgian! Then Arsenal succumbed to Everton’s dominance and could have easily been 3-1 down. A point against Everton is not a poor result but with the consistent underperformance against other teams a win was vital. In the fourteen league fixtures Arsenal would normally have won between nine and eleven games. An Arsenal challenging for the title or battling for European places would have needed to have won a very minimum of eight fixtures. You cannot argue with the facts and the win to loss ratio that we have accrued to date. To stand a chance of winning the league you need a win percentage of around 70% and yet we have achieved a 35% win ratio. This ratio is appalling for a club of Arsenals substantial resource’s and further compounds the evidence that the quality of the team is not adequate.
I accept my views can be controversial or difficult to except as loyalty can weigh over logic. We are all Arsenal supporters and yet the divide between us is so vast in the philosophy of the club. I urge you to step back from being a fan and living on past memories. I urge you to start judging the team from an unbiased point of view and the performance of Wenger over recent seasons. Year after year the team is weakened when key players depart and Wenger cannot replace them with sufficient quality. The core of the team is weakened year after year yet the clubs wage bill is in excess of £140Million per annum. Our fierce rivals have definitely closed the gap and yet their wage bill is £90Million per annum. Wenger has insufficiently allocated his wage budget on players that cannot command their salary elsewhere or undervaluing key players. This communist approach of equality of salary has hindered Arsenal as the deadwood players like Chamakh, Squillaci and Djourou represent £8Million per annum of our wage budget. No wonder no one wants to purchase them as they are the equivalent of the modern day Francis Jeffers.
I urge you to think of the blatant and well documented hypocrisy that Wenger has developed in his old age. Maybe insanity or the signs of early dementia has clouded his judgement and he should consider retiring before he does any more damage. He is killing this club with his ideals as his trophy-less recent reign is evidence in itself. Remember when he so famously stated that if he was to sell both Fabregas and Nasri you would not convince people you were ambitious. That comment still resonates in the background even when he states that he does everything in the best interests of the club. Sure you do Wenger as the following season you let Van Persie and Song depart further demonstrating the ambition to win silverware; yeah right!
It is hard to now guess what will happen to Arsenal this season and without winning nine out of the next ten league games our title hopes will be over. To be fourteen games in, sitting in seventh and twelve points off the pace is disgusting. It is disgusting that circa 60,000 fans turn up week in week out paying the most expensive ticket prices in the UK to see mediocre mid table performance results. We cannot compete with our rivals and the big four seems to be non-existent now considering the demise of Liverpool. Arsenal is the modern day Liverpool of three seasons ago and when we fail to qualify for the Champions League maybe the board may do something. The new £150Million extension to the Emirates deal will no doubt be utilised to invest in making more money for the clubs shareholders and the team will not benefit from any world class additions.
What a sad state that the Arsenal is now in and I could accept it if were still at Highbury and had a poor turnover. Arsenal is a very rich club and does not sufficiently utilise its resources in the appropriate way and that is solely down to Wenger. It is his job to manage the club and he is definitely becoming a modern day scapegoat for his lack of ability to do his job. I bet there will still be many loyal fans out there that will still live on his fantastic past to enable them to continue to refuse to believe the truth. Come on, wake up and actually watch the team play and look at our results. Our team on paper is definitely not the sixth best team in Europe as ranked by UEFA. It is likely we are now not amongst the top ten clubs in Europe and yet we are easily in the top five clubs for the resources available to deliver success.
Hate Wenger, Love Arsenal!

Whilst everyone probably feels frustration at the results and they probably also have some opinions that may be similar to yours, I don’t think anyone wants to bother with your articles anymore. You’re a s**t fan who does nothing but complain and we’re all fu**ing sick of it.
I’ll stick with Bob. At least the guy fu**ing understands what it means to support a team.

Gazidis and Wenger received a raise on their earnings for making more money for the club through sales of our best players definately not for success on the pitch. Money making is their(Board) top priority and wenger has received his share of the loot by selling his conscience!

yes according to arsene’s recent press conference he was “happy to finish 3rd” whilst SAF finished 20 points ahead and came 2nd only by goal difference but was grinding his teeth and threatened smack rooney in the head and cut his balls off if he didn’t score more next season.
today Mancini said City were lucky after a convincing 2-0 win at the same time wenger Hailed his team and claimed he was satisfied with our 1-1 draw.
AKB’s aren’t getting it, Arsene Wenger is saying we are privileged TO WIN, and that’s why we celebrate beating West Ham like we won the champions league
whilst United + City are EXPECTED TO WIN and their fans EXPECT trophies

The club has a number of problems and they are not solely wengers fault. Painting him as a villan as you have done is out of order based on what he has done for this club.
However it is time for him to move upstairs and perhaps become a director of football or chief scout.
The problems run deeper then wenger, it is not a coincidence that we have not won a trophy since David dein left. Why could wenger produce an invincible team 8/9 years ago and now be a poor manager – simply put because he is not a poor manager. The board are not helping him. He splashed out on the likes of Henry, wiltord who were then about 12 million quid which would today represent probably 20.so he has spentthecash, gazidis seems to be the problem as he constantly speaks of the business model and since he has gone the team has gone backwards at an alarming rate now struggling to compete for fourth, where before we still took it with ease. The contracts area nightmare which is partly down to gazidis and selling our best players is too.
Wengers to blame too as tactically he must be questioned when playing Ramsey on the wing, and refusing to play theo or pods as strikers especially when they are our best finishers.
But don’t just hate on wenger, there’s a much deeper problem upstairs which must be addressed before we round on the scapegoat

@frustrated gunner Please don’t embarrass Arsenal by calling yourself a ‘true gooner’. No true gooner would ever ask Wilshere to leave the club and join Nasri. You are just a putrid, puerile glory hunter.
Yes, Arsenal is a very pale shadow of the old Arsenal; but any true fan still believes in a comeback. Great clubs comeback from bad stints, not vanish into oblivion.
Arsenal can only improve if its fan base gets rid of all the plastic glory hunter fans like you. Had we not had the Invincibles , you would have been chanting “Glory Glory Manure”

The problem at the club stems at from the top and is filtering down to the pitch. In my Wenger has been granted unfettered powers and is in a position to set his own goals and targets. He decides whether the season’s been a success or failure,not the Ceo, Chairman ,owner or FANS! Like he pretty much said in the previous article, the only person he needs to convince if we’ve the season’s been successful is the person in the mirror. Can you imagine sir alex, Maurinho or even brenden Rogers setting the targets for the year-no! this just doesn’t happen at any successful organization because the targets are set by separate individuals -standard setters. The standard setters are the board (who allign targets based on fan’s expectations and resources). It is the role of the board to set the benchmarks. No employee (i.e.football manager) should have this level of influence on Board agenda as wenger does, it is unheard of. There is a reason why this doesn’t exist in any top performing organisations or clubs -to avoid self-review and to try and ensure that the organisation performs to its capacity. The point is, it’s not his position or duty to set the organization’s targets. This is a specialist role, and organisations employ people specifically to do this (non-execs). Anyone that is delegated the role of being able to dictate strategy and bears the responsiblility (and lets not forget rewards) for implementing it at the operating level will always lower the bar.
And then we need to consider the true incentives behind our gate keepers which is another subject in itself. The club needs restructuring and the first step for this would be to have an independent representative on the board (Usmanov’s representative) to realign the club’s strategic interests to that of the fans, as that is clearly not happening right now, as only the people at the top are benefiting- Kroenke’s share price has dramatically increased and our ceo has just recieved an astronimical remuneration increase, directly because of our asset sales (selling our best players). THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR AN ORGANISATION WHO’S PRIMARY MISSION AND DUTY SHOULD BE TO SERVE PUBLIC INTEREST.ANY PROFIT MADE AT THE EXPENSE OF THIS IS SELF DEFEATING AND IS IN DIRECT CONTREVENTION TO THE LICENSE THAT WE THE FANS GIVE THE ORGANISATION THE RIGHT TO EXERCISE.

Adam Kemp, I wish their were more fans like you. It is beyond me how some fans can keep swallowing the lies and bs season after season that come out of Wenger and the boards mouths. Facts are facts…7 years going on 8 without any sign of a trophy. We will not even cut top 4 this year. It doesn’t take a football analyst or a rocket scientist to realize our club is on a downward spiral to mediocrity – hell in fact I think we are already there. You are so right in saying a draw against a team like Everton isn’t bad, but it’s the crappier teams like Villa, QPR, Norwich, etc that we should have buried and gotten 3 points off each. I believe our players attitudes on the pitch are a direct reflection of our manager’s attitude. It is POOR, UNINTERESTED AND LACKING AMBITION. No plan B, no tactics at all. I was watching Man United yesterday, and Fergie is so smart, because if you look at West Ham’s team, they have Carrol who is slow as a donkey. They are a physical team without much speed. Therefore United we playing right up n their half and putting pressure on them the whole game.
This is the difference between Fergie and Wenger. Wenger would rather play Giroud as a lone striker up front and expect him to do miracles. How can he expect a striker as slow as him to do anything when he doesn’t have decent support? It is not like Giroud can run/dribble and score. The guy is only good in the box. Then we don’t even have a decent LW, so we have to constantly rely on Walcott to assist from the RW, which limits our attacking options drastically. Our attackers also have no movement off the ball, they do not create space, this is why our guys keep backpassing! Am I the only person who sees this?

Typical Count Kemp.
You started your article in the most idiotic manner and used stupid words and i don’t think you should be writing articles in this manner because you’ve shown your lack of class as a man with the choice of words you’ve used.
Later in your article you sounded normal and your concerns for the club are genuine. But you tell me this why would wenger state such a big statement about fabregas and nasri leaving saying that how can arsenal be an ambitious club after that … and then still go ahead and do it “purposely”
The idea i’m trying to get your thick skull to understand is that HE doesn’t want to let his own boys go. yet they force his hand year in year out because they want bigger money. THAT IS FACT. People are now willing to choose teams weaker than arsenal and claim they want trophies.
The top 2 in the premier league are Man UTD and Man City their spending is INSANE. Yet you’re upset arsenal came in 3rd last season!?
You are right about letting stars go and not sorting out the walcot issue … but this is not wenger. this is the board and they’re the ones that need to go… not wenger. If wenger go then we WILL become the next liverpool.

There is term that AKB’s are using now calling others “Glory hunters”. Is that what every other team is doing seeking glory?? No wonder we are where we are thanks to Arsene and his AKB’s. Good to know there aren’t many left any more. Being an AKB is like having a brother that’s in jail you love him but you don’t want people to know about him.

The truth is this Wenger man seems 2 be confused this days,the players performance too have been below par nd u see them always loosing possesion all over the pitch.A title challenging team must not be satisfied with picking a point when u,re trailing other contenders with almost 12 points.Possibly Wenger is getting older and his technical ability seems to be fading away.

Dennis said it best as has already been referenced in this discussion. Love the club with or without trophies. Anyone want the OLD Arsenal back? The arsenal of the mid 70′s the Arsenal of the mid 80′s? any takers? FFS grow a pair. Wenger doesn’t become shit after a few seasons.I’m no huge Wenger fan and will criticize if i think it’s justified but given what hes done with the financial handcuffs he’s had on him its nothing short of miraculous. Yes we need a few player and no i don’t understand why he hasn’t bought an DM or an enforcer int eh likes of Viera or Gilberto, but i’m sure he’s aware of this. he is after all our most successful manager of the modern era. if you want Wenger out then be careful what u wish for. Unreal, the short memories and attitude of -gooner come latelys-.Wise up, support the club or F*ck off. Sky blue jersey with ur name on it calling.

Hi This is the first time I have commented on here but here goes. I have been an Arsenal fan now since my dad taught me to say the words “I love Arsenal”. This love has been going on for around thirty years now and I have seen the good and bad times. I have seen the very best from Wenger and the very worst. At this moment in time we are all agreed that Arsenal as a club should be doing much better than they have been doing on the field and this is very frustrating. As the divide in the opinion of Arsenal fans grows it is easy to provide facts that support our own side of the arguments. It is however true that both sides have very valid points about the financial sides of the club and how it should be run and therefore neither side is completely correct. I agree that as a club Arsenal is run as a football club should be run and should be a role model for others, however the wage structure has been clearly very very wrong and it is this that has led to the departure of our greatest players and the watering down of quality in our squad. However as we have been told for a number of years now that Arsenal will soon be debt free and cash rich due to increased commercial income and the paying down of the Emirates move, I have with frustration because of results, still kept faith in this policy. This policy as we can see has now reached its end. Arsenal as we already know have signed a £150m deal with Emirates we are very soon expected to announce another £130m deal with Adidas. These two deals on their own make us the most financially stable club in world football. We are growing overseas revenue now at a very very fast pace. Arsenal will soon be making close to £100m profit a year. This is what Ivan Gazadis promised and he has actually delivered on this promise. He has also made clear that Arsenal will spend what is needed to become successful within Arsenals own resources and explained over the previous few years that the tough times would be over and we would have more financial freedom to invest in transfers and wages. He said this again last week that we are at the end of the move and due to the new emirates deal we will now have more financial strength in the transfer market and for wages. I actually trust him and as he has kept good on his promise of financial stability and wealth for the club I see no reason why I should not trust him now. The wage structure as he admitted was a big mistake and they are rectifying this as we speak but it will change over the next few years as contracts expire and are not renewed at such high levels . So in all I agree with arguments from both sides and feel the frustration. However we should now look to the very immediate future. Financial fair play is coming in, all around us you can see other clubs looking to make a stadium move to increase revenue to compete, we are ten years ahead of everyone else on this front, In the summer of 2013 we will be very very cash rich and should invest in the sort of quality that we have not seen for a number of years. It is here that should we not invest that question will really be asked of the board and Wenger. I am however very optimistic that Arsenal will be back at the top of the premiership very very shortly and for a very very long time to come because of the tough stance that has been made and the pain that we have been through over the last 7-8 years.

The problems with Arsenal run deep. The real problem with Wenger is that our tactics are no longer sound. There is no movement off the ball, spacing is poor and that includes the Arteta, Wilshire and Carzola connection. There haven’t been any triangles while attacking for several years now which is a necessity for a passing club. I don’t know how Wenger can watch the film of the games and not see the glaring weaknesses. It seems like the players believe that they are good enough to thread difficult passes when in truth they are not. This is the reason why we watch so many people give away the ball on medium to low difficulty passes. Watch an Arsenal game 4 or 5 years ago and we looked occasionally like the current Barcelona squad defending and attacking with movement and open men to pass to. Now this is truly lacking. Gervinho is not good enough. Knowing he beat Jagielka he should have shielded the ball better and won a penalty or at least done something i.e. cross or shoot. Ramsey should be maybe a third substitute until he returns to form and we need another midfielder (Felaini) who adds some grit to our midfield. We also need another striker, but not because Giroud is not good enough but because you need squad depth and options to change tactics. Sagna is a world class right back but Jenkinson is a better crosser of the ball. Last night Sagna hit the first man almost every cross. Arsenal’s board doesn’t understand that the sponsorship deals and all the money that comes with it that will keep us in the top 4 depends on winning. If we do not make Champions League. We lose huge revenue that will impact the future of the club for years to come. Do you think Arteta would take a pay cut in order to play Europa League? I think not. We always used to count on players taking less wages to play the Arsenal way, but Arsenal has lost its way. An average of 1.5 points per game is simply not good enough. We need to seriously buy in January and fix the basic problems with our play if not change formations or Arsenal will be the new Liverpool but not for the above reasons. By the way no keeper in the world could have saved Everton’s first goal so stop bitching about stupid things that detract from a decent point.

I totally agree, its a shame how most arsenal fans are mediocres. U & Ur stubborn manager hopes to win games with average players, keep dreaming, this is 2012, good players cost money, wenger’s job is to manage the team, why didn’t he let the deadwoods go, & just add their salaries to the salaries of want away wordclass players like nasri fabregas song clichy & rvp, wenger is a shadow of himself, too stubborn & too arrogant to admit that he has got his policies all wrong, his policies wuld’v worked only if he had kept his best players that he has groomed with so much experience, we wuld’v been ripping the benefits by now if flamini fabregas nasri clichy rvp & song were playing alongside carzola walcott & wilshire.

Barren years! trophyless years! 7 seasons! bigger wage bill than a company almost half our size! try telling us something we dont. As for people quoting FACTS why use only the previous 7 seasons to force your arguments? when did 7 seasons become the rule? why not 8? or 11? or 25? or even 1? NO the FACTS are that during those 7 seasons you choose arsenal havent won a major trophy but get this neither have 84 other clubs! As for the wage bill humour cos that is all it is why wouldnt a club that is almost twice the size and in some respects 10 times more have a.bigger wage bill? for a start we have 15 more professionals than spurs. we have a bigger stadiun that means we need more employees to operate it. we have more training centres so we need more coaches and staff to operate them. we have a.bigger fan base so we need more staff to run the systems for membership and ticketing etc. we have a far bigger scouting network worldwide. The list goes on any company with more offices and staff than their competitors usually has a bigger wage bill to go with it.
The FACTS are that all that considered arsenal fc is the third most successful team in england and as for comparing us with the spuds what a joke 13 v 2 titles and 10 v 8 fa cup wins is enough to set aside but the fact that wenger has never allowed arsenal to finish below them has won more trophies for arsenal than all the 9 spurs managers during his reign put together and the fact that he has got us into the champions league every season the last 13 into the knockout stages and even into the final (during his so called barren years) should be his testimony.
Sure we have financial restraints laid down by the new owner. but that is that i am sure if usmanov or anyone else felt they could do a better job they would offer kroenke 10% on top of the current 1750 share price and he would rip their arm off. The FACTS are arsenal is not a club in disarray or in crisis as some report. Arsenal FC is a team that is part of a 12 company group under the.parent company arsnal holdings whilst the manager is struggling to find the right recipe to bring in silverware he is not allowing the team to fall so low that he loses his job or feels the need to resign. The board and shareholders (including me) are more than happy with the financial state of the club however the supporters (including me) and the fans who dont go want to see silverware. make no mistake so does wenger and so does the players. The fact that during these so called barren years we have finished in the top 2,3 or 4 every season and reached 3 major cup finals where we was unlucky to lose 2-1 in each of them is dissappointing but hardly catastrophic. there have been many trophy less seasons in the history of this club and there will be many more. only recently i recall 18 seasons without a league title, thankfully at almost 50 im too young to remember the last time spurs won the league also unlike all of our major rivals (both manchester clubs, chelsea and spurs) i have not experienced 2nd flight football or in some cases 3rd flight) our time will come again and these trophyless seasons will become part of history just like our other trophyless spells.

Revolution is what is needed in our dear club, and i dont really believe in Wenger deceit. how can he continue to be fooling us all, it is not possile.we pay the expensive ticket in England and you are still allowing Wenger to be deceiving us. we are still in title race.either title race or top 4 should be forgotten this year. then his eyes will be wide opened that he has been living in a fool paradise.

Its ok to express you disappointment with AW but the man deserves a lot of respect for taking us to a level where we expect more than a measly point at Goodison Park against an Everton side that is realistic aspirations of a top four finish. You may think that we may be turning into Liverpool but had it not been for him we would be a mid-table team and would perhaps have even been happy about getting a point at Goodison Park.
I know that things are pretty shitty right now and AW really has his work cut out. I hope he is able to inspire the team that is ‘under-performing’, they do have the potential to play better and also makes some good additions in January. There’s still a lot of time left in the season and a top four finish with some silverware is still very much possible.

Couldn’t agree more,very good article . For me nothing is going to change until we do something about it. A draw at everton is an ok result but the performance was abysmal, and has been for most part of the season. Theo and Sagna will leave mark my words, and don’t blame them one bit.Theo has been our most effective and prolific player this season but yet still mr wengers pride and stubbornness , and that iddiot (gazids) stance on wage budget will mean we lose such a player, I wasn’t the biggest fun of willcott but the boys performance this season is second to none , he has risen to the challenge since Rvp left. Sad to see him leave too. I know some funs will say we draw and the boo boys are out, but such is not the case as for me , we have been very poor all season . In 18 games we have only performed in 3 of them , against west ham , livpool and Southampton , shitty spurs is if and maybe so I will not add that, every other game has been poor or average including cl games. Sad to say I get sad watching arsenal this days, lOng the days of the “beautiful football”! Thank u very much mr wenger and board! God bless u

Dave my dear, what can we do? we love arsenal based on past records not on these past five years now. we are sore pained, Wenger, Gazidis and co. are having fun over the fans tickets money and supportership, toying with our emotions and mockings we are recieving from our rivals to the devil may care. Wengers new slogan now is “A POINT IS OK. BUT WE COULD HAVE WON” I dont know how he could have won without a good DM to take pressure off from the jittery, slow to react and inconsistent defence line up. The refree should just dash him victory after selling his only best striker and DM without replacement,2013 they will be smiling to the banks with the proceeds from the cheap selling of Sagna and Walcot to their rivals. I keep saying that Wenger is no longer good in reading matches these days, Carzola got burnt out yet AW delayed in substuting him, at the time he did 80th min.,OX should have been ideal to help in counters and dribbling runs, this would have helped in pulling everton players back, reduce the pressure on our defence and keep their defence busy also for that limited time. Arsenal no longer plays like a team because there is no team work, they are more individualistic in play. How many times did Giroud recieved a through pass? Arteta cant send it because he is more busy doing unusual defending as an emergency DM which we had too much time to avoid, but no the lurst for extra tiny quid in their pockets will not allow them go for glory.Last night, except for Scessceny, Walcot,Wilshere, Gervinho and Gibbs the rest of the team were extremely slow in pace. As for Gibbs why is he not sure that one can pass out ball with his right foot when the ball is in motion.Wenger should pls talk to his players to be doing personal practice, it must not be only when they are training in whole.I hear that Kronke is a Man.U fan, and as longer as Gazidis and Wenger are making these returns without him dolling out anymore quids their positions are guaranteed, So my co fans we are helpless..NO TROPHIES.

@Adam Harvey A well written and presented riposte. All of what you say is based on a promise made by the board of directors. I really hope and pray to God that you are correct and the board, Ivan Gazidis in particular, will follow through with their plan and purpose for this club. But still, the financial policies of this club have nothing to do with Wenger’s managerial calls. Wenger picks the squad, picks the formation and tactics against certain teams and quite frankly, it has been below standard and unacceptable. Keeping players like Wilshere, Ox on the bench and playing players like Ramsey, Gervinho is just plain stupidity. Playing Ramsey on the LW, and then switching with Theo at half time is ridiculous. (They swapped wings if anyone didn’t notice). Playing Giroud as a lone striker up front is nonsensical. Our formation does not support Giroud and his style of play. Also, Giroud is only good when he has good support, ie from the wings especially. Who do we have to provide him with good crosses? One player and his name is Walcott. When Walcott is benched, injured etc Giroud is starved. Why can’t Wenger organize a proper LW so we can have more dimenions to attack and more sources for Giroud? Why do we only have Giroud? Whatm if he gets injured, then who do we have to go striker? I can go on and on about the ineptness of our squad, but that is for our genious manager to work out.
Regardless of whether the board have good intentions and fulfill their promise in two years time, I believe Wenger still needs to be replaced. It amazes me how so many fans and even the commentators agree on a lot of things about our team, like when Santos was played the whole game against United and was continually raped by Valencia, but was not subbed? I still said before the game that Santos SHOULD NOT play…yet Wenger played him and look what happened. Wenger has lost his touch, plain and simple.

Adam you are right in almost everything you say apart from insulting Wenger. He’s a great man who has lost his sense of reason, his stubbornness has unfortunately overpowered his sense of logic. The team is in decline and has been for some time. This year will lose Walcott and Sagna to add to Nasri, Fabregas, Van Persie and Song. Yet we still have Squillaci, Djourou, Denilson, Bendtner Chamack, Gervinho, Santos and Arshavin on the books. Sell your best players and keep your worst thats a hell of a way to run a football club and a recipe for failure and that is what we are seeing.
What will it take for the masses to see the truth? probably a bottom half finish in the league. We need to stop making excuses and act now if this club is to be saved from sinking into total mediocrity.

The pattern and trend are there to be seen.
We’ve never bought high valued players. That’s obvious isn’t it.
Buy them on the cheap and occasionally sell them for more.
For every 3 bought maybe 1 shines.
Most clubs are wised up to european players, so high prices reduces wengers passed successes in getting quality players.
i am starting to believe wenger sole ambition in life is profiting from selling our top players for money. He may not admit it but the signs are there
the buzz this gives him is greater than winning trophies
CONCLUSION: WE NEED A MANAGER THAT’S MORE PASSIONATE ABOUT FOOTBALL THAN MONEY. LIKE TO KEEP WENGER IF HE CAN PROVE IT.

This article is complete BS. Financially we are one of the best clubs, we don’t run on debt or deficit and our financial abilities are not hindered by a patron billionare that is subject to getting bored and stop dumping money just like what happened to Malaga.
I have to admit I’m not happy with what’s going on. It’s hard to see your team trophyless and underperforming, but you have to look out for the bigger picture. Who do you think will replace Wenger? Who’s a good enough manager to do so? Only Guardiola can be expected to be a seamless transition and improve things. And even that I doubt because as we’ve seen so far, Barcelona can manage itself. Yes, Guardiola was extremely successful, but so was Rijkaard before him and so is being Vilanova after him which just shows that managing a team that can win everything by itself is not really that difficult or achieving. Mourinho is unrealistic and he would tear the club appart financially wasting millions in players that don’t suit the Arsenal style because his style is counter attacking. Other than that who? Only one I can see is Jurgen Klopp from BVB and I don’t see him leaving his club anytime soon.
In reality, sacking Wenger will be for us a complete downfall. Just like Liverpool has become an average team, so would Arsenal if Wenger leaves. Gazidis said the club would be financially competitive in 2 years. There’s no reason to think not since we’re one of the best clubs financially and with financial fair play things will look better for us. Emirates deal, Adidas deal, stadium paid, things WILL get better.
What Wenger needs is someone to tell him to WAKE THE F*CK UP. He’s making ridiculous subs at ridiculous moments in the game. If the team isn’t working make subs at half time, or at the most at the 60th minute of the match. You can’t expect Gervinho of all people to change a game in 10 minutes against a very closed Everton defense. You can’t also expect Coquelin to do shit in 2 to 5 minutes for us to win the game. I’d rather see Arsenal make a sub at half time or 60th minute to try and change the game and go for it with another offensive player with 10 or 5 minutes to go in a desperate attempt to win the game than a change with 10 min to go that will have no impact and then a defensive player to secure a draw. Also, the order of who plays were has to change. On the LW Podolski, Chamberlain, Gervinho, Ramsey. On the RW Walcott, Chaberlain, Podolski, Gervinho, Ramsey. On the middle Giroud, Podolski, Walcott.
Now, in the transfer window we HAVE to buy WORLD CLASS.
I reckon Mario Götze should be our main target. 30 million is his reported price. Go for him Wenger. We’ve seen how he tears Man City appart in the Champions League and we’ve seen him leave the Real Madrid defense trembling. He’s Germany’s undisputed best talent. He can play through the left, CAM or right meaning a versatile player that can switch positions in field or replace pretty much anyone if our attack ain’t working. He’s also young which means a replacement for Cazorla (who’s already 27.) If Walcott leaves Götze can replace him and even be an improvement over him. He can play on the left, we can move Podolski to the middle to take advantage of his finishing and shot power or have him on the right cutting inside to take advantage of his brutal left foot. We would also have Chamberlain who should be a natural replacement for Theo.
Then a LB is in order, I however have not seen a LB good enough or impressive enough to warrant an improvement over Gibbs. So buy someone who can fill in for him. Willems the reported transfer option of just 18 years of age from PSV should be considered or maybe Shaw. He could be Gibbs future replacement. Many people say Baines but I just don’t see it. I think he’s way overrated.
Then a DM I believe Tiote from Newcastle would be quite good. And a sort of like of mine would be Moussa Sissoko from Tolouse who I believe would be better than Tiote. Moussa Sissoko is sort of the box to box midfielder we need. Like Diaby but without being a freaking glass. He can play holding midfield instead of Arteta who I have seen missing in the last games we’ve played. He can also play on a more attacking role and therefore gives variety and versatility, things we need desperately and are helpful to cope with our injuries. He’s fast, he’s VERY strong and he’s tall but he has very good technique making him a very complete midfielder. Not to mention he’s recently being called up to the French national team. Another great player would be Gundogan but since we would already take Götze BVB would not sell him.
Then we can get KJ Huntelaar. His reported price is 6 million which is a bargain. Yes, he’s getting old but he’s still deadly and can be our main striker or a fitting bench warmer for when Giroud can’t score.
Also, with all the fuss, bring Wilfried Zaha in. That would be a display of courage and ambition not to mention poaching one of England’s most talked about talents.
AND besides that sell the deadwood to ger some money and free up weekly wages.
Get rid of Squillaci, Arshavin, (Maybe Ramsey unless he improves dramatically.), Diaby as much as I think he’s great is WAY TOO injury prone… Saha was the same for Man Utd IIRC and he had to find his place somewhere else. Chamakh as well.
Mannone is NOT GOOD ENOUGH.
All in all we would be spending around 70 to 70 million in 4/5 players.
That plus Henry’s loan spell to bring confidence and bring the best out of all our players and have him give advice to our new signings to cope with the BPL and become better. After that loan, have Henry as a coach at Arsenal helping Wenger or our younger squads.
That offset by the fact it’s mostly money we already have plus money gotten from getting rid of deadwood. Maybe fueled by a possible Walcott departure that we can’t rule out because it’s a possibility.
Other than that keep investing in our youth academy and prospects. Frimpong, Gnabry, Eisfeld, Chamberlain, Miyaichi, Campbell and others seem like very exciting prospects that could become our future core.
That is what I believe to be the road to success.
TL;DR version:
Wenger wakes up and makes changes to the team at the right time.
4 or 5 key world class players brought in.
Henry loan spell and then he takes a position as coach to improve all of the squads from youth to BPL.
Sell deadwood.
Keep improving our youth academy and trust in future talents.
Also, go f*ck yourself Adam Hemp. (Yes, I said Hemp on purpose.)

If AW was at any other top team would his lack of success be accepted. The answer must be NO. But of course AFC are no longer a top team just a very profitable one where the owner never invests any of his own cash into developing the team.
And to become a top team we would have to invest heavily in top class players who under normal circumstance would now not join the Gooners unless like Man City/Chelsea pay wages way over the top. WELL THATS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN WHILE THE LONE RANGER AND TONTO ARE RUNNING THE SHOW and Aw will not be remembered for the football we played but rather for taking us into a profitable world inherited by wannabees or nevergonnabees.

Beautiful article, but your language was awful to say the least.However your points should be well taken if our club arsenal is to be rescued from the descent to livepool level. Arsene has done a lot for the club and should be allowed to complete this seaon – champions league football or not he should be eased off at the end of the season. He has lost his competitive edge and his tactical nous seem to be obsolette for the kind of pass and move he wants to play. Pep Guardiola is actually waiting for Arsenel and not Chelski. Mourinho won’t mind too. We have money to spend. The problem with us Arsenal fans is that we refuse to admit the facts. Mr Wenger has been saying that he lacks anmbition for the club for several years and we refuse to listen. If you said that if you sell two of your best players, it shows lack of ambition and you still go on to sell thaem, the point is made.
This team is not just average. It is mediocre.

kemp is right.
We dont have a world class side to match the status off our great club.
Thats the bottom line.
It would be very intresting to see what will happen if we finish outide the top 4 this season.
Arsene said he will not be here when we are a mid table team if he sticks around for another 2 seasons his worst nightmare might come true.
The wage structure is ridiculous 1 million more a year spent then tottenham although we have more pros on our books and staff theres no way our wage bill should be that much higher considering the quality off their players.

Wow! Simply awesome and on point.Adam from the terrace of my house in Lagos, south west Nigeria; I give you a big hug. In addition to your write up which I totally agree with, I will continue to say this.Arsenal not only has a large nuber of players sitting on the bench,doing nothing and getting paid week in week out, Arsenal also has quite a large number of players who have been included in games that have no bisiness being at Arsenal. With no regrets at all, and honstly; its not that I am a hater of youth football, but its one thing to have a young player, its another to have a young star. The inclusion of Ramsey,Alex Oxlade,Wilshere,Coquelin,Manone,Gibbs,Gnarby in the team is so much space filled with junk.Some might ask, what about Jenkinson; well he happens to be different.unlike the others his contribution to the team in the absence of Sagna, whom by the way was terrible against Everton was great. I counted and if not mistaken, Sagna had about 6 pull out or crosses if you like and none of it went past the first defender. I will continue to say this,we lack players in the team with the ability to turn games around. Creativity is one thing we lack and I don’t know why its difficult to include that to the team. Give Ramsey a 100 shots at goal and I doubt if 1 will be on target.the efforts of the quality players in Arsenal will continue to be frustrated when you continue to surround them with mediocre players. Like I heard and I don’t know if its true; that RVP before he left asked for quality players to be introduced to the team, like I said, I don’t know if its true. If anyone will come up and tell us the truth why quality players leave the team, I believe to an extent that we will be able to know to a certain extent the problem with our team.The introduction of Podolski,Giroud and Carzola to Arsenal this season would have done the team a lot of good, if the players that left this season and last season had remained.I feel very sorry for those fans out there who put in so much into the team in terms of season tickets and travels only for them to get this kind of results.I think its time for the managemnt of the team to do something about the dead wood in the team and also loan out the upcoming players just like Barcelona did to us with Fabregas. We made him a fine footballer then they took him back. AW believes too much in his unrealistic system and should be ashamed of himself by now.Arsenal has become so ordinary and I pity whoever will succeed him at the club
