Wenger confident he can fix Arsenal’s problems
In typical Arsene Wenger style, the Arsenal manager played down the extreme reactions to the recent poor run of form that has left the Gunners languishing 10th in the table. When all around him are losing their heads and pulling their hair out (not Steve Bould obviously) the Prof is loomking at the problems facing Arsenal in a cool and calculating way, and he is convinced that it will soon be sorted out.
“There’s a problem of course. What is important when you have a problem is to do something about it.
“The second thing is the strength to do something about it, and I’m confident we have both. We have the strength and we will do something about it.
“Let’s not go overboard. Every period is difficult. In every game you focus to get the best out of your team.
“We lost on Saturday and of course we are not happy with that.But I am confident that we have a strong team, that we have a strong spirit in the side, and that will come out.
“We have rebuilt the team a little bit in two ways. First in bringing in new players, secondly in getting some players back from long term injury, like Jack Wilshere. I feel there is alot of strength in our team.
“Patience and keeping our mental strength will turn that around in an easy way.”
Wenger should be commended for backing his players, never publicly blaming them no matter how badly the team or an individual has performed. The players need to repay this loyalty by giving everything they can on the pitch. Wenger also denied that his assistant, Steve Bould, had launched a tirade at the Arsenal players after the Swansea match, again protecting his players. Wojciech Szczesny, however, had already let slip that the post match conversation was louder than usual. It is not too hard to decipher that riddle.
Wenger knows the players better than anybody, so I have faith that he will get them playing well again. I just feel that they are not giving Wenger the same support as they get from him, and it is the manager who takes the blame for poor performances.

Sorry but I am not confident anymore about you Mr.Wenger,
I lost all my respect to this person.
8 YEARS WITHOUT EVEN 1 SMALL CUP MAN, what happend !
going from a club that won 1 or 2 cups a year to a club that only aims to 4th position (to be qualified for CL )is just so disappointing . I have no idea why we went from there to this place in a matter or years.
In my life I always had this policy aim for the top to be at least near the top. if you aim for the qualification only you won’t even qualify. that’s what happend to arsenal this year, they aimed for 4th , and they are not even near it now .

Yes ther is a major problem, of course! The squad has no depth, no serious playmaker(Fabregas style) and no defence! Where have all the Arsenal of old real men of steel gone? The Tony Adams, Nigel Winterburn, Martin Keown, Robert Pires, Dennis Bergkamp,Mars Overmars, Thierry Henry, where the f*ck are they?????
We are just an average side now, so sad after 32 years supporting the Gunners we have this crap!!
Why? For the sake of profit?? We are the 4th richest club in the world but can’t be consistent and are playing like has beens. The clubs with very few name players are playing brilliant football, but we are just plain shite!
I will always support this club but as a suppoter I am extremely frustrated at where we are right now. Same excuses, stadium debt, no funds from board, same old crap. I do believe Wenger has had enough and wants some action so he can rebuild further. He is a dynamic coach but can’t work with mediocracy…..

I also do believe he can turn things around for us. First, he needs to stop been so rigid with his formations. Sir Alex changes his formation to suit his players and I honestly think Wenger should consider that as well.
We should also go for better players in the transfer market. We do not need wholesale changes but a proper winger ( regardless of whether Walcott goes or stays ), a good DM, a versatile defender and a striker is all we need.
Adrian Lopez or Remy ( winger cum striker ), Mbiwa ( versatile defender who can play LB, RB, DM and CB ), Strooman ( don’t know much about him but everyone I have talked to rate him and I heard he is been keenly watched by us ) and we will be okay to make top 4 and have a good enough squad to give the title a go next season.
Personally, I have written off this season title wise but believe we can still fight for top 4 but our transfers in January should be made with the summer in mind. Buy players in January ( who says good players don’t move in January when money talks ) and give them time to bed him and we won’t have to worry about them bedding in when the 2013/2014 seasons starts.

Right, now i believe that 4 signings are required along with 4 sales.
Buy one young, proven but INCREDIBLY confident youngster and 3 experienced greats.
Who to buy?:
Zaha
Huntellar
Tiote or Fellaini
in fact that is it.
Who to sell?:
Arshavin (he has had his time)
Ramsey (good for cardiff and thats as far as it goes)
Walcott (is leaving anyway)
Djorou (never good enought tbf)
Do this and a successful season will be at the end of the road for Arsenal.

Of course Chamakh will start in Greece, he is the only striker we have available unless he decides ( again ) to play Arshavin up front.
May be the youngsters will show more courage and determination.
We need to turn things around because I just don’t see us beat West Brom, NO WAY.
PLAYERS SHOULD BE PUT IN FRONT OF THEIR RESPONSABILITIES…
Laziness and an increased lack of competition put us where we are.
Ex Arsenal players said that some members of the squad walked into the team without proving they could deliver.
I know we are debating a lot on the solution, but the tactic is wrong and has been for years and WENGER IS PART OF THE PROBLEM AND HE NEEDS TO SORT HIMSELF OUT…

I know we are ranting at the manager right now and I totally agree because he is part of the problem and a state of laziness and “doing the minimum” got us in that difficult position.
Another fact is, WE ARE ALSO RESPONSIBLE OF THE SITUATION BECAUSE WE NEVER ASK QUESTIONS ( LIKE WE ARE DOING RIGHT NOW ) AND WE WERE COMFORTABLE WITH THE SUCCESSIVE QUALIFICATIONS TO THE CL.
We are Arsenal Football club and what we have to put out teeth on is a place in the CL. May be we should have voiced our opinions before and ask for better… May be by that time we would have won the league.
Wenger always said that qualify for the CL was more important than win the league… Well we always knew it was financially motivated and nothing else.
Right now teams in the league and others think that we are right for the taking… And the sad fact is WE ARE…

Do you think that he was forced to get Vieira, Henry, Pires, Campbell and others to Asenal?
The only change between then and now is the board.

Ivan calls Arsene into his office:
Ivan: It is all over
Wenger: What? Are you sacking me? Because if you are then I resign. That’s what I’m going to tell everybody
Ivan: No, stop being such a drama queen all the time. I knew this day would come.
Wenger: What day? What are you on about baldy American fella? Hurry up already, I have to go and bask in the glory of watching Ramsey train.
Ivan: We have run out of players to sell. Pick up the papers. Not one of our players is being linked with other clubs!
Wenger: Theo is hehehe. Did you start that ‘sign da ting’ thingie?
Ivan: Nah brah. Not sure where that came from. Back on topic. How are we going to get our bonuses if we don’t sell players and make a profit?
Wenger: You worry for nothing. I got plenty of players. We could sell Ramsey
Ivan: No one wants him
Wenger: *becomes agitated*
Ivan: Maybe just maybe Ramsey is not going to be a superstar
Wenger: Whatcha smoking Ivan. He has been our best midfielder.
Ivan: We are 10th in the league
Wenger: *Raises palm* talk to the hand cuz the face don’t wanna know.
Ivan: Just shut up. We can’t sell Ramsey
Wenger: Yeah cuz he is our talisman.
Ivan: No. For the same reason we can’t sell Bendtner, Denilson, Chamakh, that other guy and Djourou.
Wenger: Jesus Ivan, will you just let it.go. How many times are you going to bring that up.
Ivan: OK what do we do? We need to buy players quick that Man City or Barca want.
Wenger: Let me have a look in my academy
Ivan: This is no time for joking
Wenger: OK I got this dopeass left winger. His name is Santos.
Ivan: He is a LB
Wenger: No he isn’t
Ivan: Yes he is
Wenger: But he never defends.
Ivan: Yes that has been a slight issue
Wenger: Oh now I get why everyone hates him. Damn dude is wack.
Ivan: What did you think he was?
Wenger: a left forward
Ivan: What did you think Podolski was?
Wenger: a left forward
Ivan: So you have been playing all these games with two left forwards?
Wenger: Well that day my alarm didn’t go off and then I used my wifes shampoo so my hair was all frizzy and….
Ivan: OK OK. So seriously what have you got for me. I need £40m worth of players because you can’t get into the CL this year.
Wenger: Diaby?
Ivan: Would never get through medical
Wenger: Gibbs?
Ivan: Would not get through medical
Wenger: Sagna
Ivan: Would never get through medical
Wenger: Per
Ivan: TBH I’m scared of him. He will leave when he says he wants to
Wenger: Cazorla
Ivan: There isn’t really much of a demand for him now that he’s been Wengered
Wenger: Arteta?
Ivan: We can’t find anyone that wants a AM that can play DM but really badly
Wenger: Really? That is actually the exact criteria I use to recruit DMs
Ivan: Thats why we have to sell players every year
Wenger: Wilshere?
Ivan: City say they will take him in 2015.
Wenger: Gervinho
Ivan: LOL
Wenger: LOL
Ivan: *Wipes tear from his eye*
Wenger: Why did we sign him
Ivan: You thought he was going to be the next Drogba
Wenger: No way!
Ivan: Yes way
Wenger: OK let me have a think
Ivan: Don’t come back in an hour with your friends forever scrapbook of Ramsey
Wenger: How dare you! Ramsey is a great player
Ivan: *presses intercom* Security

I agree with Sureli and Leo, however, Wenger’s tactics and his love for certain players are to be blamed on him and not on the board.
I agree the board are bunch of liars, the money they often claim we have available isn’t always the total truth but it is not the board who asks Wenger to only make substitutions in the 75 Mins mark.
It is not the board who has forced 4-5-1 ( 4-3-3 ) on Wenger, it is not the board that asks him to stick with Gervinho ahead of a far more competent Walcott or even Podolski.
Yeah, the board members are clueless idiots but Wenger is no saint either.

Stop putting words in Wengers mouth, just coz alot of AFC fans speak very highly in idolising/respecting doesnt mean Wenger thinks hes bigger than our club and neither does it mean the fans think it either.
When Wenger rates a CL spot higher than a domestic cup he is calling it how he and every other top manager/club sees it, so when he rightly does prioritise this doesnt mean he isnt competitive.
Issues involving wether or not we have had budget spending over the last seasons, i believe that if there are no major monies available it is better to say that you have enough money if needed, as opposed to saying we have no substantial funds.
To basically admit how we are stuck with what we have got wether good or bad as opposed to saying that we are happy with our squad so will need no further addition(s) would be a missed trick in the sense of confidence boosting.

I’m not sure there is money to spend? Maybe after the new sponsorship deal? And if so do we trust Wenger to spend it wisely? When he brought Gerviniho and Oxlade for roughly £25m he could have had Hazard, Lille named their price Wenger baulked! Mata the same.I think we owe him the chance to sort it in January if the cash is there, but feel it will be the same old, no signings or poor ones like Park etc.I suppose Bentner’s return will be like a “new” signing?

there have been many mistakes at arsnal. i want to make some important points.
1) who ever installed the equal parity of pay at the club needs to be held to account. people like squlliaci, denilson, and bendtner on on, roughly, the same as wilshere, walcott and arteta. and nasri and song before. that is a disgrace. it makes my blood boil that nasri etc were allowed to leave over pay and ambition. were arsenal for goods sake, one of europes super clubs. we need to pay people what they are worth. simple. at uytd rvp and rooney are on over 200k. nearly double the rest.
2) the board need to go. they robbed the club. i’l make it easy to understand. they had shares in the club, had the club finance a new stadium. when the stadium was built it automatically made the club worth 450m more. that means there shares were suddenly worth more. but, the big point is, arsenal didnt actually pay for it yet so, in reality didnt own it until paid for. but the greedy board sold their shares to someone who said would keep them on. so, basically, they robbed us and kept their job. Alisher usmanov makes this point. he said they should give the extra value from new stadium back to club to help pay for it. what did the board do? shut him out. he is our only hope. trust me on that.
3) our 4-5-1 has failed us. he changed it first time in 2005 final and we won but got pummelled by united. i dont know why he changed a successful 4-4-2 that tore teams apart. has any1 ever asked him?
4-5-1: it invites pressure on us. if we have 1 upfront, the other team can send their fullbacks forward. imagine walcotts pace and podolski’s animal spirit. no defence would push up on us.
plus with 4 in midfield they can become tight, thus 4 in centre rather then 3. i would play cazorla and ox on wing. they can drift in and both are brilliant at ball carrying into midfield.
szcseny
sagna mertesacker vermalaen gibbs
wilshere, arteta
ox cazorla
walcott podolski
4) i hear arsene wenger wants centre back who can play left, defensive midfielder, winger and 2 strikers. i think, and hope he is going 4-4-2
5) my last point is, we need to fight. we need to f*%$ing fight. even our beast and animal players wilshere, podolski, vermalen, the boss, ox are looking weak. wenger needs to sort things out. but i love him, i want nothing more then to see wenger lift the european cup for arsenal.

.The Wenger knows thing has gone, hopefully. We’re 5 points behind 3rd place and yeh we are average at the moment.
.In 2007 we were on 37 points at this point(we’re on 21 now) of the season and in 1st place. We came third by 4 points in the end.
.The point is, we should have won a lot more but occasionally and inevitably, the team lose. Happened with the Invincibles when Rooney scored after 49 games unbeaten.
.Get with it, we’re in a rut but support your bloody team when times are bad – they’ve been pretty kushdi since Wenger took over

I think most fans would give the coach a chance to “fix it.” But that is what he has been saying for years now and he has done the opposite of “fix it.”
And at this point, “fixing it” will take far more than a January transfer window so I would like to hear a proposal with some real teeth – something like….”If I don’t get a 100 million for players right now, I quit.”

lets be fair,when the season began we looked strong,determined,focused n true title contendors.the reality is if u are real gunners n have been following proceedings of the club,u’d realise that challenging for honors would really depend on Aw’s decision making,drive,fight,focus,competitiveness n motivation he would instill or be able to maintain in his team,but,he’s proved he can’t.we would all be liers if we claim we didn’t look the most convincing title contendors the first 6games despite not topping the table.where did it all go wrong? why are we blaming the players n calling them names? all
the players apart from squillaci are quality players,yes,including ramsey.all they need is the above qualities and the players to be played on performance merit not Aw’s preference and we’ll see a drastic improvement even before the jan transfer window is opened to strengthen positions like the DM that is most key.the team is strong but needs proper management n motivation.the so called dead wood are winners in their capacity arshavin,chamakh,santos,gervinho,giroud all won league just before joining arsenal,these are not dead wood,all they need is proper motivation n competition for positions n we’ll see how good we are.the question we should ask is,how good is the management? has he lost his ways? is he really tactically astute? does he properly use the players or play them as they deserve to? if management can’t sort the above,then we are wasting time with him.

@AYJ None of that signing would improve Arsenal at the moment

The way I look at it with all the young players we’ve got we must keep which we would definitely trust wenger (not) to keep them and in a few years time we will have good chance at being back up there

What i want is that this year we get a midtable finish so that the board and wenger gets to know that investment is required
they bring in :
1) Mario Goetze
2) Huntelaar
3) Mvilla
4) Sakho or any one else but at least he a 10-15 million price tag to ensure that he is some one brought in wid quality
for the rest of the season simply apply this Professor
szenzy
sanga per.Mer Kosly Gibbs
Vermalen
TheOx arteta Santi <3
Wolcot/giroud Poldi
i would love to c dis

buy all the players and and who would wan’t to come to a struggling team in decline when their teams are doing far better;there is no financial benefit either,if all the ‘buy me’ players earn good money at their respective clubs and want to earn more then they will definitely go somewhere where they will be paid more.Huntelaar is not going to happen cos of our sh*i*t position.Playing for arsenal is not a dream for any player anymore,Hazard and Mata showed us that we are just an average team that no big player wants to play for.Carzola had payment issues with Malaga otherwise he would never have come to arsenal and he must be regretting it if he looks back at malaga in la liga and champions league.Sorry to dissapoint most fans but there will be no cavani,huntelaar,lopez,fellaini forget abt it.

@SaMz Ali Mid table finish( no Champions league) means those player won’t come to Arsenal. So January signings are required

Is arteta really that poor or because he is playing in wrong position,keeps breaking attacks by passing back all the the time,if wenger had any common sense he would have addressed this issue a long time ago.

The ony thing that I can blame the board for is for being a*s*sh*oles and not having the wits to sack wenger when he could have been sacked a thousand times by any other board or team in these 8 years.He speaks like he has a right to remain forever and do whatever he wants..fix my a*s*s a*s*shole!!!

AWs phylosophy depend on having player good enough to produce the goods, unfortunatly that is where the plan goes wrong.
I also believe that we are no longer able to get that quality player as what top player would join AFC if they have any ambition.
When yout on the way down its difficult if not impossible to reverse the fall without major investment and with our Board (no matter what they say) the transfers wont be paid and the salaries won’t be offered.
We’re shopping at the “pound” shop instead of the 3/4 pound shop and getting rid of those we don’t want by pawning them at Cash Converters

I’m really scared lately. I don’t want to end up like Liverpool!!!!
But OUR own board are responsible! It’s an absolute disgrace. They don’t respect us, don’t care about the scoreline. At least the owners of Man Shiekh/Chelski have ambition – and refuse to see THEIR club decline by taking IMMEDIATE action. What do the AFC board do – nothing. Not as long as our beloved stadium is packed and we barely cling on to that CL spot.
I’m fed up of all other fans looking at us as some joke club the board have sucked the desire and fear out of our Arsenal – and we should be standing against it!!!!!!
Enough is enough WE need to step up and WE need to see to our club being back at the top. USMANOV IN HE HAS THAT PASSION(AND WILLINGNESS TO SPEND). I mean I’ve just read that Kroenke just spent £70MIL on LAND???????? WTF WHERE’S OUR FALCAO/CAVANI/KEEPING RVP???? HE DOES HAVE MONEY HE JUST WANTS TO SPEND LESS AND MAKE MORE $.
WE CANNOT HAVE THIS STRICTLY BUSINESS MENTALITY ANYMORE. STAND TOGETHER GUNNERS AND FIGHT FOR THE JUSTICE OF OUR GREAT ARSENAL!!COYG!
