They were playing well anyway, but what Wenger failed to do when we were going for the league last year, and in previous years, was to add to the squad to ENSURE we did as well as we could.

You're right though. Given the resources at both clubs, we should not be behind by such a margin.

Player for player, we're not that far off them, mind. But we have a piss poor mentality, so again, 'Arry wins, because he get's da lads upfer it. They're cracking lads vey are.
Arry's pick up of Saha and our DVD rental period of Henry shows how the psyche of the two mangers differ. . .Arry has proven over the course of the season that he will accept nothing that could damage the club or at least without a fight a la Modric and his subsequent remaining at the club

Wenger let ours go, which I agreed with cos I thought they would be replaced with likewise quality and with enough time to settle in
The get of Henry gave his three goals (2 match winners ) and a tearful farewell. . , it showed not no ounce of ambition because his departure leaves in the same hole with no back up to RvP. . .the only way I could forgive this kind of mismanagement is if we bought big in the summer but that was how I was feeling at the end of last summer when I thought about this January.

Wenger keeps breaking our hearts and it has to stop especially when Arry keeps showing us up. . .Im not saying Saha was our answer but Parker could have been and a similar arry lije reinforcement of the team could have been too!
