you and i are complete opposites and there is no way we will agree. you blame wenger for everything from not spending to not winning yet i blame the players for not performing. we might as well stop talking, we wont agree.

It's not a players job to build a winning team, a manager has full say on who he buys/sells, plays/benches as well as tactics and formations amonst other things.
Even a player playing at the top of his game every match isn't going to win you trophies without a good team around him. You blame the players but it's not them that build the team.
But isn't it a bit hypocritical to criticise RVP for wanting more money but then suggesting Usamnov should stump up his own cash to pay for such a player? Fans claim the morale high ground on this sort of issue, criticise clubs like Chelsea and City but those morals would instantly go out the window if we had a sugar daddy to give us want we want. Not all fans, but you seem to be toeing the line especially if we're happy to accept Usamov's money.
Been mentioned that he's the only one left to have won a trophy with us? No? May as well fuel some more wrist-slitting. I think one Johan Djourou would be our new longest-serving player.
Will feel strange calling the God of last season a ****bag but why the hell not. He whores when he wants...
the board cash in on our talent and put very little back into the club. they take a nice big payday while disrespecting the fans with comical sound bytes, telling us to keep our mouths shut and to be grateful of 4th cause its a trophy. its all the same bullshit however you want to wash it. i dont see how you can feel sorry for them in any way? they are sitting on money and wont even pay their world class star player the going price. if anything you should be more upset at the silly contracts Arsene and CO. have signed, they have wasted MILLIONS on shite players when that money could go to our top end talent.
id say the past 7 years has been a collective fuck up and an accumulation of consistently bad decisions made from a variety of different people; all of which has resulted in the progressive downgrading of our club from genuine title contenders to tournament fillers.
people can go as far back as blaming david dein because he was the first to sell to an outsider (usmanov), creating a multiplier effect that still poisons our club to this very day. or you could blame hill-wood for being a backwards senile twit who has embarrassed the club by keeping to his values, many of which are antiquated at its core. equally, you could blame wenger for believing in the youth project even when the project clearly degenerated our club into a chaotic mess, something our players have finally started seeing hence the mass walkouts. so i dont think its fair to point fingers at one person even for the on-field shambles; the manager believed in a youth project but the board let him run it for so long that in the end, it defeated even our own club. meanwhile, the board sat back and milked higher ticket prices, selling us a false vision of the future. during all of that, the man who's supposed to love us the most, mr dein, sold his soul to an oligarch but still insists his intentions were good.
everyone has consistently f*cked up.
one by one.
absolutely everyone.
the biggest worry is that we as an entity allowed this to happen without any strong opposition. the regime repressed the fans and still dismiss the critics as a minority. well now the 'minority' are turning into a 'majority', but one fears its too late.
Rumours at the moment are that we will be looking at lewandowski as a potential rvp replacement :coffee:
