i dont even think DM is an arsenal supporter.

said FA when we smashed liverpool at the emirates back in november/december and was top of the league for most of this season.

He is not an arsenal fan. far from it

Jonny man... One day you're saying sack Wenger, the next day, you're baiting DM.

Flip a coin why don't you..

For all the crap Mourinho comes out with gob, he does know how to rotate and use his players to effect;).

A monkey could rotate Real Madrid's squad... :p
 
Did you enjoy your relegation back in 1988??:p..

As old as I am I have suffered don't worry about that. :p


When I was around 5 years old my old Ma a Gooner drove me around my manor in her Mini decorated in Arsenal colours. :mad:

When at school Chelsea were **** & beat by everybody ending up in the 2nd Division. :p

I am proud of the fact I have supported them all my life though through the Terrible right up to now. :cool:

Lol. If we don't win FA Cup and finish 4th, he will flip again :p

I am waiting to see what DM aka Captain Hindsight has to say about people saying he is not an Arsenal fan :p:D;)
 
Captain hindsight, for saying precisely how this season would go before it all happened? Really. The guy who called Chamakh's signing a disaster before it happened and listed allt he reasons why. Expensive wage due to no transfer fee, inability to move him on because no one would match those wages, that Wenger would all but refuse to use him because he's both not his type of striker AND he doesn't rotate.

Wenger and as a consequence Arsenal are the single most predictable team in world football today.

I got bored of the happy train of daft Arsenal fans who ignored who we were playing and decided Ozil was brilliant. I don't care about beating Norwich, we were always going to have a shocking record against the top 4-6, some seasons you get lots of those games early and are always trailing, other seasons you'll get a heavy second half of the season and appear competitive till then. I said from the fixture list being announced that we'd do well besides the 3-4 particularly tough spells.

As for people who question who I support, I don't much care what they think. I wouldn't be so pee'd off about Wenger if I didn't support Arsenal, but Arsenal fans don't seem a group of people who seem particularly comfortable using logic.

I'm not claiming magical powers, Ozil has for 4 years underwhelmed at Real. Fans are easily duped, particular by highlight reels. Why is it Ozil was the one Real were happy to lose, and why are Real the better team for it. Ozil's lacking qualities were on show in effectively every game he played for the past 5 years.

I got shouted down over Monreal, but saying I wasn't overly impressed AND that it wouldn't matter because Wenger has his favourites and they'll play regardless. Monreal is a better defender, but with zero form, than Gibbs. I said as we bought him that he would not start because Wenger likes Gibbs and will continue with him whenever fit....... I got shouted down for being negative. But it wasn't negative it was merely what Wenger has done. 10 years and Wenger is a book to be read, how he'll react, what he'll do, utterly predictable. The fact that Monreal wouldn't get games was as obvious as Chamakh being a complete waste of money.

Being negative and simply pointing out obvious truths aren't the same thing.

I actually want Arsenal to improve, I think we can do FAR better with the money we have.
 
I found read this on the Daily Mail app on my phone some time ago which for me summed up the problem with Wenger this season:

Can't remember who wrote the article but it hit the nail right on the head for me!
 
Best record in 2013 (most points collected)
Number of Days at the top of the league (2013-2014)
Arsenal 128 days
Chelsea 62 days
Man City 8 days

Stats look all ok, but as everyone knows, it's the final third of the season we always fail :( Not enough depth in the squad and definitely need an out-and-out striker who finishes!
 
Aside from the fact that it ignores logic, how good Bendtner actually is and that Bendtner is irrelevant to the situation at Arsenal... yeah, hit it on the head.

Firstly you don't only look for players in a transfer window, logic fail number 1. Second, they would be looking for a striker better than the starting striker, Giroud, fail number two. Third, bendtner is good, all his stats say he's good, every time he's had a run of games he's been very good, he's excellent for his country.

The ONLY reasons Bendtner hasn't scored loads of goals is we don't play him, simple as that.

Is it easy to find a striker better than Giroud or bendtner, yes, we had offers in for Higuain and Suarez.. fail number 4 in that "hit the nail on the head" statement. Arsenal's problem as always was failing to do the right thing, making the right choice. We let Higuain slip away because we thought we could get Suarez. Higuain is what we needed, wanted to join and was good value, we had personal terms agreed but we pee'd around thinking we could get a striker off a rival.

Even if we bought Suarez I'm certain that within a couple years he'd be looking to push out of the club for a Real Madrid, Higuain is leaving Real Madrid, wouldn't join Barca, likely would be happy to be at Arsenal for a very very long time. We had him ready to go and we threw the deal away for a player who very likely wouldn't be a long term option for Arsenal......

The problem is with Wenger, even when a great striker was put on a platter needing effectively only a signature he still messed it up. Then in a panic threw 42.5mil at Real when offered Ozil, a player being offered around Europe with few takers because every top manager knew he was a big game bottler and never in a million years worth that much.

Frankly if we'd turned it down and offered 25mil they'd probably have accepted, because they were desperate to sell and were being turned down all over the place.
 
Big game bottler? Where do you get this stuff from? You ignore his assists in El Classico's...you ignore what RM fans and players said about Ozil leaving. You ignore what Mourinho has said recently about Ozil. Seriously, you need to get a new outlook on football, he's a fantastic footballer. If you can't see with you're own eyes that Ozil is great little footballer..then...i dunno..

That's the thing with great players, they'll fool you into forgetting about them, then bam...

Dont know if it was an april fools joke or something but i heard we are making a £2mill bid for none other than Salomon Kalou :/....not sure if srs lol.

Also read that Arsenal this summer are giving £100mill to Wenger to spend on over hauling the squad...now im pretty sure ive been hearing about this £100mill warchest for a number of yrs but it never seems to result in anything ie truly world class players other than last yr when we nabbed Ozil.
 
I never take much stock of the rumour mill with Arsenal. The press like creating their own narratives for us anyway so I'm quite sure some of it's created just to wind the supporters up.
