Dont remember which team it was exactly.. may be blackpool or wigan where they fielded a weakened team against Utd coz they were sure they are going to lose. Guess what happened? They actually gave the other team a game! Even with 11 players out, we shouldnt be conceding 8 goals.. the fact that you are justifying that shows the low level of expectation that AW has brought some to be happy with!

You really have to talk to some other fans to get perspective sometimes.

Not even a single answer to any of the questions. Didnt expect much tbh.. coz frankly speaking you are just trying to be different from the crowd to get some attention. You can have your day under the sun :good:

Don't think he sees it that way. More of a God complex born out of having noone to question his methods - which is why only circumstances do. IMHO there are 2 things that force AW to change tack. First when he has 'no choice' (Fabregas; Sczezny; Wishere; Flamini; Clichy fall more or less into this category). Second when we risk losing CL football (Arshavin; Mertesacker; Santos fit in here). I'm not saying that any of these players were totally unplanned, but IMO they are the result of circumstance as much as strategy. IMO.

Huh? What questions? That AW is tactically inept? Because of 5-6 results out of 700 games during his Arsenal career or 60 games last season?

All i'm seeing is a few individuals cherry picking, or letting a single trend that fits perfectly with your bias dominate an argument. Even I wouldn't be sad to see the back of wenger, but I always qualify that by saying "if one of the top managers in the world came in" because the reality is that AW on the pitch and off it, is much better than people give him credit for. Yes, lets sack wenger and get a steve kean and a rafa benitez because they never lost 8-2. :doh:

5-6 results? Are you serious? Im sure thats a typo and you meant to type years then its more accurate. Making the same mistake over and over again, not strengthening when we need it, buying shite ass players from the same country over and over again, defensively inept, boring football, lack of killer instinct, overplaying, bending over for Barca all the time and a lot more.

Yes, because thats much worse than getting the Harry Redknapp treatment. :doh:
