Around the Cesc era, we had a season or two where we'd beat or put up a serious good fight against the big spenders but were very complacent against the lower league teams, so I don't think it's just a case of money. Even if Wenger had billions to spend in the window, he's spend it on the wrong sort of players, play them out of position or leave really good players on the bench until there is an all out mutiny. He'd never be able to cope with the sort of egos our rivals have to
cope with.

Its always one or the other with this team, isnt it? When we play very well at home, we have a horrible away record and vice versa. When we have a good record against the big teams, we fail against the smaller teams or vice versa. The last time we were consistent was possibly 2005! And Wenger will always throw some random stat to show we did well and the supporters will lap it up like Jesus's words.
Bottom line is that we are not successful, neither do we play good football. So why are we sticking with this manager? He does not provide entertainment or success.. just generic excuses every season. Tired of him.

Just praying to Allah that the board grows some cojones!

Our 2 central defenders played at the WC, had little or no rest before this season and he still wouldn't buy a replacement for Vermaelen. You dont have to spend 30m in every position to have a great team. Teams on 1/5 of our budget have given Chelsea harder games than we ever could.

I'm confused, I think it's atrocious that we didnt sign a defender, if it was a money issue I think we should have signed a defender instead of Welbeck.

I simply asked you other than man city or Chelsea who has a completely balanced squad

In order to challenge for the title, we need two defenders, at least one world class defensive midfielder and a world class striker

Wenger has massively blundered in not sorting out our defence, but my point Is we weren't going to win the title anyway and fortunately Liverpool and United are so shit that his blundering won't cost us too badly

Unfortunately Arsenal are averse to rash decisions, if they are interested in a player they examine it from all possible angles then do it two or three times again. Having reached a decision the player has signed for another club.

It's not saying Wenger hasn't blundered because he has, unfortunately I believe in order to get the balanced squad we have been crying out for you need to have a budget like Chelsea or Man City

I don't know, all I care about is Arsenal.

Herbert, quit with this nonsense that you need billions to build balanced squads. We have 2 Senior Central Defenders, that's right 2! We sold our other Senior Central Defender and failed to replace him.

We haven't had a DM for years. Until we signed Welbeck we had Giroud and Sanogo as our First team Strikers. Wenger dithered for 3 seasons regarding buying a striker.

Wenger has wrecked the squad and loaded it with Attacking Midfielders, he's obsessed with them and buys Attacking Midfielders every single season. Our squad is woefully inbalanced and it has nothing to do with Money.

The issue in many other squads is not one of balance it is more to do with quality and that is more prevalent the lower you go down. City and Chelsea are the only two who have the balance AND the quality. There's absolutely no reason why Manure couldn't have had the balance it looks like they need with the amount they spent and Liverpool are pretty balanced but are just behind on quality now. Suarez left and his replacements aren't as good as his shadow and captain Fantastic is getting on a little.

No one is irreplaceable . If you can find a better manager to fill the gap , it is yes . But if it is a change just for the sake of it then , it is a no . Better the devil you know than the angel you don't , they say .
