Seriously, why not! No one else is scoring at the moment, so we quite literally have nothing to lose.

Well, we don't know yet as it's not next May. How about we find out before having a man-child tantrum. But if we don't challenge because of Wenger's inaction this summer then on his head be it.

Well like this. We didn't spend £36mill on a 19 year old, therefore doing nothing is GOOD!

Yeah, see my other post, and above. But keep on building those straw-men if you like, they're so easy to destroy aren't they? :coffee:

Either way on his head be it if we fail to challenge again, but signing another player with potential, or signing another 'Welbeck' for the sake of having another player wasn't the answer.

On his head be it?

Don't think so. How many times has he failed to secure the players we need in a transfer window and ended the season short? How many times has his head been on the block as a result?

So nothing will be on his head except the magic hat the final few deluded hold-outs think he still wears.

In reality - On the fans' wallets be it!

Well, my expectations have changed now the money is available. I have been somewhat placated by the two FA Cup wins but agree we need to challenge for the biggest prizes now.
If we don't because of his inaction this summer then yeah, he should be sacked.
I don't have the power to enact that, obviously.

Is it better than doing nothing? I don't think so. We needed a player who could genuinely push us on and they don't grow on trees, that kid certainly isn't one.

They dont grow on trees....but we are sitting around waiting for one to grow on a tree (unless they are too grown and a Chelsea or City want them)

Were gonna have to do some of the legwork, the last bit, and I know its ugly for a grand club like ours, but coaching/nurturing :o....like we used to, from top potential to world class.

We are finished if you think potential is beneath us.

So what's the purpose of your post then?

IMAGINE... oh those keyboard warriors... :haha: Can't compete :haha: Only club in Europe not to strengthen the outfield :haha: £200 mill in the bank :haha: Build a stadium to compete with the very best :haha: Here's a pound extra :haha:

This is about SPOILT FANS!

It is not about rich old men.

I know. Let's be reasonable and judge Wenger at the end of another season. That way there's another 34 matches to come up with the latest excuses for this man.

We didn't pay £50m on Cavani as he had no sell on value, says it all <_<

Nobody has asked you to act. Where do you get that idea from?

In a study that asked 1 Arsenal fan how he felt about his club hanging on to £200mill rather than strengthening in consistently ignored areas, the following answers were obtained:

1. I am elated with two cup wins - 0 responses
2. I am somewhat happy with two cup wins - 1 response

Margin of misdirection was +100%

Well...yes. Obviously.

There is literally no other way to judge any manager of any club in any season. :lol:
