    Was this our most wasted summer transfer window yet?

    Instead of buying proven pl talent like Van Djk, Kante we settled and splashed out more money on players that haven't delivered. We could've invested the 80 mil we blew on players on a top class striker or a paul Pogba but instead we got 3 magic beans.

    It doesn't really matter anymore.We've spent money, we've signed decent players and we are no closer to where we want to be. If anything we are going backwards.

    Should have bought a premium talent like a pogba or higuain then filled the squad with young talents like the serge

    We have signed premium talent, nothing has changed.The manager is the reason we are not good enough to push for major honours.

    Yep, nail on head. If we gave Wenger 200 million I don't actually think he would improve the team. He's the problem, the constant in season upon season of under achievement.

    Agreed.

    The way I see it, we have a very talented team technically if not the most talented in the league. We've seen what they can do when they are fired up, work their socks off and to a set game plan. Sadly we obviously haven't seen anywhere near enough of that, for various reasons which ultimately lead to a couple of doors. ......poor management of the team and lack of sporting ambition from the board and owner.

    We've got four world class players (Sanchez, Ozil, Bellerin, Kos) surrounded by a couple of very good players (Carzola, Mustafi) and several good/decent players (Perez, Coquelin, Ox, Iwobi, Welbeck, Cech). Of course we can always strengthen and maybe need to in a couple of areas, but that's not a bad outfit. The only thing lacking is a manager who has not only the ability but most importantly, the balls to run the team. We need a manager with a ruthless will to win and can transmit that to the team, and demand full application win or lose.

    There's a whole lot of fucking slackness going at this club, far too much skylarking for my liking.

    yup


    and the correct answer is the Summer of 2015 was the summer Wenger blew it.

    This past summer he signed quality players but Wenger does not know where to play anyone. He needs to go.

    This formal apology.

    Would I have to do it with a straight face?
