Who Will Win The League - 2

[Gooner23]

I don't hold out much hope but a win on Sat might at least dent their chances a bit.

I still think City are capable of putting a title run together in their remaining games. They've done it before and certainly think they are more capable than us of doing so. The cup win might just kick them on.

Leicester and Spurs will drop points no doubt. But we will drop just as many if not more before the end of the season. I can't see us winning it now, too many issues in our current set up.

I can't see us winning it, but we're capable of doing so.

What most managers would do, if they didn't have a solution in the first team, would be to fast track a kid into the position. That person may be in-experienced, but at least it would retain the balance of the side. We have had plenty of those diminutive technical players in the u18s etc. Just bring one of them in for a few matches as short term solution....you never know, it might work out like Rashford for Utd, or Bellerin for us just recently.

But no. He simply must play what he thinks is an alternative, rather than understand what made the team tick in the first place.

That said, the Coq/Santi thing was starting to fail before either of them got injured. Teams worked it out.

Agree with your posts on this my man. There's no escaping the fact that Wenger simply doesn't have a plan. Its not even the Cazorla/Coq replacement issue - its the fact that the past few years have been a constant experiment with midfield/attacking midfield players. It truly seems as though the manager simply swaps players in and out - plays them out of and in position in the hope that he will stumble on the right solution. It worked (surprisingly) with Coq/Caz - but I don't buy that this was planned - and Coq was a fortuitous result of injury and the manager having noone else to play there. I thought that Saturday illustrated Wenger's approach perfectly. He brings on Iwobi for Welbeck (too late as usual) - and while Iwobi has not disgraced himself in his cameo's this season; this sub is clearly in hope rather than expectation - as the more sensible sub would have been Campbell - a player who has exceeded expectations this season, and scored goals. It seems that Wenger simply doesn't plan properly for like for like players to be available to replace his inevitable injuries - and his team looks currently exactly like it is - a ragtag bunch of individuals thrown together in the hope that some alchemy may occur. Its no wonder there is no composure, no certainly and little confidence in our team.

Come May (4th I think) we'll be playing the gypos to see who finishes 4th. At best. It'll be us of course. I can't begin to imagine what sort of excuses Wenger comes out with when that happens. In some perverse way it will be the best entertainment of the season, listening to him dodge and duck and weave hopefully for the last time.

I'm still not willing to throw in the towel just yet but what a timid, gutless, pathetic performance we have just witnessed.

If it wasn't such a reality-distorting season I would give up but as it is we are pretty much as we were thanks to Spurs, City and Leicester slipping up too...

If things continue like they have then only Leicester can truly claim to deserve it. Spurs are getting too many plaudits simply because they are in the mix and have showed some relative consistency. In any case, in this mad season I still think we can win it. If we don't win at Spurs then that would pretty much finish it off. Nobody sensible would make that bet now but in perhaps the biggest NLD of all time, anything could happen.

I would love Wenger to say if we don't win the league now he will resign. If the players can't motivate themselves, then perhaps they could do it out of the loyalty he has shown them. For all his faults as a coach, the players do seem to respect him massively. If they have any ounce of self-respect that statement would make them push as hard as they can.

EDIT: Just heard about Cech. Well, that makes it even more an impossible mission...fucking hell...

We might have a chance of winning League 2.

I think we'll drop out of the top 4, we're only 4 points ahead of United now and City are right behind us.

No chance. 4th place is ours! Guaranteed. All we need is for the gypos to string a few wins together. It's on!

You should've seen City tonight.

Forget it lads, this team is flimsy as fuck. Even if we beat Spurs they don't have the fortitude to see it through.
