This squad lacks leadership quality. Get zlatan in tbh
I posted somewhere the other day about us lacking leadership on the pitch. I know Wenger doesnt give a toss for captains, but I believe if we had an Adams or Viera style player out there, we would be a lot stronger and lose a lot less games.
It needs both
Some of our players not only lack character and guile, they lack technical ability as well.
We need a better manager. Period.Quote:

Cant belive we ant in for zlatan tbh
You think he'd put up with the shit that goes on here? Playing for second best all the time? This guy must have won more titles than any other player. He always seems to be at the right club at the right time. Why on earth would he consider the 4th Place Champions for his final bow? And apparently he wants a ludicrous lump of cash every week, so we won't want him either. This seems like the most unlikely transfer conceivable.Quote:

You don't think then that this season is something of an outlier and that in the majority of seasons it's a case of who spends the most on players that are both technically gifted and have character and guile.Quote:

a 34-year old who's been coasting in the French league for the past two seasons. Turns 35 in October. You think he'd be up for playing against the shitkickers in the Prem every week? An amazing talent once, not anymore. A waste of money for one season that he would make all about him. Almost as bad as wanting to buy in Vardy.Quote:

Leadership needed from top to bottom. On the playing side, I was listening to the Arseblog podcast and someone that wrote in mentioned Mourinho's way of having specific instructions for how the team are to set up depending on match circumstances. So if his team are a goal or two up with a few minutes left at half time, they'd know automatically how to set up. A goal down, they'd know how the coach expects them to play. It's pretty clear we don't have this going on with our set up.
:good: On my Emirates Tour, John Radford said he and some of the other ex-players thought that too - we need someone to drive the players on the pitch.Quote:
