Why we should be worried about Wenger at Arsenal

Money + Big name signings = Resentment in the ranks = Mutiny = poor team spirit = patchy form = fans wanting heads !

Article obviously wrote by an arsenal fan with either short memory or history with club….pls try read up about gunners and our history before you moan. It’s not always roses for us but what we have seen for past 10 yrs qas among the best in world football. learn to appreciate it

with such fans, we are in a serious problem than we think. 

Agree with KOFI, Why don’t you talk about other teams who have spent millions on players like TORRES, CAROL,DE GALE etc and yet they are not living up to expectation. If you don’t like my ARSENAL.. PACK IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The fact our most creative player on Saturday was Nasri, and Arsenal just confirmed he is signing for Man city says it all.  Everyone at the club have lost their marbles.

Everything on this article is true,ye muppets cant see our club is destroyed,nasri now going to city,we cant attract top players anymore,the board and wenger are happy to take the money and do nothing with it,you dont see chelsea,city or utd letting there top players leave and if they do they replace them with top quality and not cheap kids

Lets be clear, Arsene isnt doing anything different this season to that of the last few, he has always preferred to bring in young players and build them, than spend on over-rated players. The difference this time around is that our squad is spread thin. Its not about demeaning the players we have, theyre good players, its about our squad depth. Arsene and the board have to take this into account, whether there is a dispute over player wages or not. Nobody questions Arsene ability to manage AFC; but if we wanna seriously challenge for silverware we need back up. Look at Man U yesterday against Spurs, bringing on Giggs, Hernandez and Park when your 3-0 up?
AFC would be lucky to have 11 players still on the pitch. Disciplined tackling, greater depth in squad,a dn i woudl say 3 world class players, a CB, an attacking mdifielder and a striker to assist RVP. 2 world class players if were being tight. 

What a load of drivel.

Of the 8 players out you chose the weakest CB, last season’s 3rd choice LB and last choice keeper, maybe Wenger (like us) believe’s Wilshire, Song and even Gervinho with more prem experience behind him will make the difference and several reports in various blogs tell us Miyachi is a talent that could have a great season just like Jack’s 1st, the fact Wenger sees him training and you probably haven’t is a massive factor in your assessment of “a club in crisis”.
We’re not in crisis FFS, we’re not fully ready yet which is annoying but nothing that can’t be sorted.

Sure, we’re not as attractive as Cavski and Citeh and ManUre will/have always had the greatest appeal but on the former it’s the prospect of earning megabucks and due to financial whoring an attraction of top class players around them, THAT’s the appeal….not that we’ve neccesarily lost it, we just can’t compete at the same financial level.

When did van persie say he was leaving? Seems to me he’s happy at a club who accept he’s succeptable to injuries and the fact he takes time out to applaud the fans at matches speaks volumes of his commitment to a great club so stop tarnishing it.

yoy say  the fans are not happy with wenger you got that wrong to start with the real fans are looking forward to the new team wenger is going to build with a fraction  of the budget of city man utd chelsea liverpool and spurs all the teams sky news talk sport tell us year after year are going to finish above us with budgets  10 times ours
some of them will but for 14 seasons we have been in the champs lge  and will be next year  in arsen we trust

‘The situation with no trophies won in 6 Seasons is a massive turn off for players with ambition and the will to win to come to us , also a massive negative turn off for players at the club at their peak wanting to win winners medals’…

Utter Twaddle- why have top players gone to Liverpool (Suarez/ Torres), Man City (the entire team), Tottenham (modric/ v.d.vaart), Juventus (Krasic, Vucinic), Atletico Madrid,(Falcao, Turan) Sevilla( Navas, Fabiano), Roma (Bojan, Steklenburg), Dortmund (Subotic, Gotze)etc when all of those teams have endured much longer trophy droughts than us.

It all about money you fool- eg Falcao, one of the best strikers in the world- is on his way to Atletico, the 5th best team in Spain to replace Aguero. Does he believe they will win  La Liga or Copa Del Rey??  No I doubt it.

You have no idea what goes on behind the scenes. Hardly anyone does! In truth we have no idea whether it is hte manager or the owners and board who are more to blame for the lack of success in recent years but it is obvious that the manager is easier to blame as the public face of the club.

I suspect that if we sacked Arsene and got a new manager, we would start playing more functional and less pretty football, we would be more organised and less attractive. Whether we would see more signings and more high wages is debatable because no one really knows who is refusing to spend the money. No one knows whose idea the wage structure is so there is no guarantee that with Wenger gone, we would start paying higher wages and attract better players.

It is the same if there were a change of ownership and an overhaul of the board and Arsene stayed. We don’t know if anything would change or not because we don’t know who is responsible for the goings on at Arsenal.

If I had to guess I would say that the CEO and the board are not competent and are probably responsible for more of the bad decisions than Wenger is. But that isn’t to say that Wenger is completely blameless. His failings are more in the areas of tactics, motivation, man management and organisation. I think the mistakes in the transfer market strategies and contractual structures are more likely to be the fault of bad decision making by Gazidis and Stan or simply incompetence by those who run the club day to day.

But as I say, this is all guess work, because to a large extent, we don’t know who made what decisions and who was responsible for what, behind the scenes.

Finally, someone gets it.  Money is the key here.  Nasri is perfect example.  His agent/dad/brother/uncle, whatever the f*ck he is, has been whoring Nasri’s arse around any premier league club willing to f*ck it, and they want £3Million for the privilege.  That is 15K a week for the length of the contract, just for the agent.  Give any top player the choice of 5 clubs he would like to go to.  City would not be on it.  Maybe we wouldn’t on some of them, but for pure enjoyment of playing great football and expressing yourself, we would be on there, with Barca, Madrid, Man Utd and AC/Inter Milan. 

Problem is, players get aroused from bank balances and not enjoying their football nowadays.

Wenger does not set the wage structure, or the amount of money available for transfers. He never has and never will. It is set by the owners and the board, like every other club. Wenger is old school enough that he would never publicly slag off his employer, the board, and you people are so stupid that you think that somehow Wenger writes those rules. He doesn’t. If we are unwillingly to pay players the same as other top CL teams, Milan, Barca, Madrid, United, and the Oligarch gang of Chelsea, City and recently PSG, then that is not Wengers fault. Not at all. He can recommend a payrise or a wage, but if they say no then tough bananas. We are like Spurs in this. Our owners will not pay the top level of wages and until they do, players will move on from us to those other clubs (who are all financially dodgy, but nothing much seems to be happening about it). Hence going for young players for whom an Arsenal wage is a substantial payrise.

wenger isnt a puppet of the board..they are in awe of him!.He looks after their money so they look after him. The player problems we are having and will continue to have are down to wenger. He HAS lost the dressing room and provides no motivation.He operates the team on cold 4-5-1 tactics a bit like a chess master…the team plays mainly with no urgency, power and fighting spirit and its down to wenger.
