That being said, I don't understand why he can't play more of a "mad scientist" role with a wealth of talent and use them when and where they'd be most effective.



Here's the part I don't get about Song and Cesc. Couldn't we have gotten them both cheaper than everyone else? At least Cesc, I know we could.

Why wouldn't Wenger, as an economist, grab every underpriced asset he could? No one in our side is irreplaceable on form, except Sanchez.

Carvalho looks like a stud, and Scheneiderlin is a safe bet. I'd take either.

Also, Arseblog says Theo may start tomorrow. Wenger says he's ready to play. If we run out a front three of Ox-Alexis-Theo, I may have to watch in slow motion.

Let's just be honest with ourselves, we probably get neither of those guys in the upcoming window.

Has Arsene given any explanation as to why he refuses to sub until the 80th minute, if even at all?

It's almost as if Arsene holds grudges on players who leaves the team for greener pastures, and then when they come back he doesn't budge. In a sense I like it, but when it prevents us from getting better I don't.




Oh and hey fellas!

I saw this image reflecting Fabregas' stats for the season. I would say he could have found a place for him...

Arsene has been a fricking idiot this season with regards to addressing our transfer issues, not buying players who *may* have been available to us, and having a nonexistant substitution policy. I know this team would be better with a more pragmatic manager. I'm not sure what Arsene's "vision" is at this point. I just don't see it.

ETA: And to let Cesc go to Chelsea of all places is just the worst. Why let a player of his proven quality go to a team competing for the league?

Yes, at Finn's. We are going to get 9 out of 9 points. Quit bitching. My guess is we finish third.

After how we've played this season, I would take third in a heartbeat right now if I could.

Szczesny is so poor. We have got to get a keeper with better decision making.

Every single moment for Arsenal is like third and Chavis.

Arsene is Les Miles. They are the same, stubborn person.

Szcz makes absolutely shocking mistakes sometimes. Infuriating really.

This is bullshite. We don't deserve to be top four.

I don't normally complain as a fan. I believe you stick with your team.

But I get so tired of looking forward to the match, being full of anticipation, then tune in and have to watch a frustrating shite show.

And yes, the old cliche applies right now. "This is not a well-coached team."

Face it guys. Right now, at this time and place, with this manager and his handling of personnel and his tactics ... we are a mid-table team.
