You mean he's stuck in customs?
NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
its actually nice winning games that we are meant to be winning and quite comfortably. now we have hit a bit of form it will be interesting to see if we can keep it up against better sides.
arteta lucked out with the suspensions forcing him to play ESR and Holding etc. suddenly a run of games and these guys can play.
Worth every penny of his release clause.
Definitely the start of something coming together there. We don't have the depth to be consistent across long periods yet - lose any one of 2 or 3 key players in the middle and the whole thing starts to stutter again - but we're starting to tick off problems: the front 4 are sharing the goals and assists around, which is great to see; the defence looks well structured and is keeping regular clean sheets (and actually doing it in an attacking setup); we're transitioning from defence to attack much better and much faster; off the pitch the bloated squad is getting trimmed; and the profile of player we're going after is starting to change.
I still think we need to upgrade 3 or 4 players in our best XI before it really starts to purr, and we certainly need to up the standard of our depth, but at least it looks like it's starting to go somewhere.
