The injured postman bloke who looked dogshit ordinary on Sunday. Fee was zero pounds and zero pence which converts into zero euros. I think we'll get what we paid for.

If no one is taking them aside and pointing out specifics , then devising tailor made routines to iron out these flaws, why will they improve. Players like Bregkamp and Henry spend time on their own honing already impressive abilities. I see no improvement in Walcott, simply natural progression, not massive gained. Hisonly asset is speed. He is onemajor injury or 4 more years of losing that, then what. Does somebody thing Bale just developed from a slipshod LB to the world's most prized player by chance. No I doubt it. Something about the whole Wenger organisation smacks me of indolence and complacency. I swear Arsenal does a review of each season at it's end and 5 mins later concludes that we were simply unlucky and next season, things will simply full into place with maybe a small , verysverysmall tweak. The legend of Wenger as one of football's great thinkers has long died for me.

Iron sharpens iron and you have a point regarding the training. Self motivation is also key and it's why Wenger prefers to work with young players. He can't take all the credit but I believe Wenger's philosophy is to provide an environment where young players can grow and flourish. The absence of quality players will have a knock on effect and we're getting a diluted version of Total football these days. It needs to be looked into. But in my opinion, Gervinho wasn't so bad that he was beyond redemption. All he needed was to grow in confidence and learn composure. Those things are easily taught and not beyond Wenger's abilities. Seeing him lose patience with a player so quickly is very odd.

As for Walcott, I think he'll have a short career if he stays with us on the wing any longer. He does need to worry if he loses his speed and he should be playing as a striker by now. He's only signed a short extension so I suspect he'll be off soon. Wenger has hardly played him as a striker since signing the deal. That's telling.

The limbo period, where the board goes on a cruise with another bunch of whores and dances the night away. Then there's the hangover period. Then the fry up period. Then the waiting for the bar to open again period.

Because they have fuck all else to do during the transfer window.

No, because it is not possible to sign players.

We've been linked with Capoue a few times in the past.

Sperz get one over us again.
