    I'm sure the players want to win every game. But it doesn't matter how much a player like Djourou wants to win, won't change the fact that he'a lacking in the skill department. Also, your missing the point. I'm saying I'm not surprised about so many players leaving when they hear him talk like this. Players like Cesc, Nasri and maybe RVP. His refusal to buy proper players when we have injuries must be frustrating for them and then when you hear this and see his inactivity in the summer, it must take it's toll.

    This season (despite the Wenger muppetry of saying "trophy"), fourth would be a real achievement, ALL things considered.
    Even if we beat Sunderland in all honesty would we have really gone on to win the cup, probs not.

    never thought i would live to see the day when I'd want to see the back of Wenger

    sadly, it has become abundantly clear that the Professor has lost the plot.....his frugal ways have led to his once illustrious managerial career being perforated

    sad, real fuqqing sad

    I think the frugality thing is a total myth, the man is more than prepared to dole out ridiculous wages to undeserving players financially burdening the club and making it impossible to get rid of these players when invariably don't make the grade, so what he doesn't spend in the transfer market he more than makes up for in this regard.
    The only reason he doesn't spend big on transfers is two fold, one he has spent big money on players and usually they turn out to be flops and secondly it's hubris he'd rather buy some player that no-one has heard of and if they flop than no prob bob but if they excel it makes him look like a genius.

    Problem is every man and his dog has grown wise to this and pretty much all the big clubs recruit youngsters from smaller clubs or each others academies.

    I'm at a loss how this can be turned around in anything less than five years. Our wage bill is indefensible and it is the sole reason why this Club will be dragged down into the mire when we fail to qualify for the Champions League. A Club spending what we do on player contracts should at the very least have a spine populated by proven superstars supported by a cast of accomplished and up and coming players. Three or four players aside, we have a dishevelled rump of players accustomed to failure on the pitch and unimaginable reward for dubious talent and mental strength off it. Our players are in football terms, the richly rewarded banking failures of the business world.

    There has been chronic mismanagement on and off the pitch and this situation has been festering and building for at least seven years gradually taking us from the pinnacle to the rump of a team we have now. Anyone thinking there is a quick fix for a situation that has been building for years is deluding themselves. We have shit players on lucrative and lengthy contracts that no one else will take on, and we are still offering them. Even if there is a complete change in approach from the Board and a new Manager, it will take years to clear up this mess.

    1st step to recovery is getting in that top 4 is something we need and take it from there. And until the Stan/Usmanov is sorted out nothing will change.
