That may be, my point was more that selling two of our best players, generating over £50,000,000 and then bringing in Scott Dann just isn't acceptable and there will be pressure for Wenger to do something he doesn't traditionally do and spend big on a big name player.

You'll be in for Hazard/Mata, a CB, and a random youngster I imagine.
 
I think sneijder wants to go somewhere where he can continue to win trophies. arsenal cant guarantee that but utd can as much as any British team can. remember inter did the treble - he doesn't want to take a step down.

I've got money on Wenger to be the first manager out this season!

Surely they cant sack wenger though. its not his fault that nasri and fabregas want to leave- but he has generated almost 40 million wealth through signing and selling them on! For a team more concerned about wealth and sustainability than outright achievement wenger has consistently achieved this and more.

And guess whom they play in the middle of those qualifiers!. I fancy us getting a win on 20th aug especially if Cesc and Nasiri are already gone. It has been long overdue

It is his fault they want to leave though, and its his fault he made this massive "stand" against Nasri leaving, then looked like a weak fool as Nasri seems set to leave only a week or two later.

Arsenal failure to win things is Wenger's fault and Cesc wouldn't be so intent to leave already if Arsenal were winning things. While we're getting decent money overall, and 20mil for Nasri is ridiculous, Cesc is worth an awful lot more than 36mil, and together it barely makes up for getting half the value for Vieira and Henry that we should have.


Will depend who we get in to replace Cesc, personally I think Wilshire has more than earned a shot at that kind of role, Ramsey hasn't looked anywhere near that level YET but has potential. So what we desparately need is someone who can step into Wilshire's role of last season which was basically the DM< and ditch Song. Jesus last season Wilshire played deeper than Song, and Song did smeg all going forwards, he's worthless defending and worthless going forward.

Wilshire + a new and actually quality DM, and someone maybe like Mata would make a great midfield 3 with Ramsey getting games in there aswell.

But if we keep Song in there, there isn't a possible way that the midfield three could be as good as last year.

I just don't trust Wenger at all, he won't sort out the defence, we'll bring in a CB who will have the same issues all of ours have now, wrong system, stupid players around them. I don't trust him to drop players who aren't even close to good enough and so I don't trust him to buy replacements that we need, at left back, right back, DM and right wing.
 
Does anyone else just automatically skip drunkenmaster's posts? Hopefully i'm not the only one.

Anyway, a lot of heat surrounding Sneijder now. He really seems to be hinting / pushing towards a transfer to United. Hopefully Fergie can cough up the dolla?
 
How has a post about Fabregas and Nasri leaving, ended with Song bashing? You really are pathetic with the criticism of some Arsenal players, DM.

He posts some informative stuff, but I am not the best reader , so always takes me forever so I just skip lol
 
Didn't Wenger say the other month that Arsenal can no longer pretend to be a big club (make note that he admits that they were only ever pretending to be a big club) if both Fabregas and Nasri leave?
 
Nooo just wrote a big response to dm and it went wrong.

Basically wenger is the reason you have been competitive at all. Its not arsenals spend that's the issue, you've been outspent by 600 million by chelsea and by a lot by united and now city. that's not to say wenger has made no mistakes but without bankrupt yourself like Leeds or newcastle sustaining the success you had previously was a pipedream.
