the worst wenger side ever could be the best since 2006?

[Cripps_orig]

My argument had nout to do with you and you got involved for reasons unknown to me.

My point was Yes we went out the CL to a poor Milan side, Yes it was Wenger fault for not beefing up the sqaud i get that and he is at fault for much of the other faulires this season.

But we did not go out because we bottled yesterday we went out cause we shite in leg 1.

No one gave us a chance 3 weeks ago heck even 7:45 pm tuesday no one gave us a chance, even at 3-0 we were 1 goal away from going out had they scored.

My point was the players could have gone into that game and not bothere and settled for a 1-0 but they never they dug deep, got lucky i must admit, but done us Proud.

Of course id me much happier had we gone through no doubt about it, but i can't fault their effort last night.

Like you do with god knows how many posts of mine?

No one said we bottled it last night although after that 2nd half performance, i wouldnt be surprised if someone did. We bottled the first leg though and cos of the first leg, we are out of the CL so our reputation as bottlers remain despite last night.

just because i dont agree with you, you completely attack me now eh? resorting to insults and calling me a wanker.

grow up.

top poster you big man

Grow up? I'm not the one who thinks it's hilarious to put a typo up as a signature.

In this tedious "who me? ...but I'm innocent" routine of yours, I'm trying to show you that you're the one who has been starting these silly e-attacks. Even if you're not directly calling people wankers, if you were less dismissive and patronising about other people's comments, you wouldn't be 'attacked' and there could probably be a decent discussion on how shit or great we are.

there's a fine line between patronising someone and calling someone a wanker.

you've shown yourself up to be a completely inconsiderate, malicious and pernicious poster.

now do me a favour and never reply to one of my posts again.

I dunno...I might reply to a couple more.

Of course, that could mean 4, 15 or 30. I'll let you know the exact amount.

As a fan you can only support whats put out there and tbh the past three seasons is it that pundits have written us off and we've still managed to claw our way into the top 4. As being a supporter goes that's not bad and players like Oxo cube give us a little hope. Obviously we all want to do better but we wont always get the cake, certainly not in this world where cake seems to just be bought.

What an awfully messed up thread. Of course, SWAYR is right. RVP is the main reason we're in with a shout. His is our captain, and one of the best players in the world. Wenger did well to sign him. And cesc and vieira and henry etc. the problem with this team, despite it's admirable qualities of character and charm, is that there is only one RVP. As there was only one cesc in recent times. To win and win well, we need to supliment wengers gems with proven quality, and that is the only reason we're not further up the table. Shame SWAYR couldn't bring herself to be more grown up about it. We may not have been "good enough" to go through v Milan, but any fan of this club should be proud of the team, regardless. They were fucking heros the other night. You could never say that of nasri, bender, ade and the other money grabbing ****s we've thankfully got rud of.

Good read.

One thing I would say though, is that there are certain characters and individuals in this team that are worth sticking with and believing in. Which is something you couldn't say for past teams.

Id go with that. . .I have gone on record as saying I thought that this years version even though technically inferior is mentally stronger and more balanced than recent squads. I stick by this assessment besides the fact that cracks have been there for all to see.
We are still a work in progress and we can see that. . .there is still a big difference in many senses between us and the top two, quality=points - for me the biggest balls up was the run we went on after the Villa game, we lost some serious ground there - if we can find condistency then even this so called shit squad can challenge , if we can add to the core of Sir Ches, Kos, Jack Oxo and RvP, then we could dare to dream again. . .

Only thing is. . .it wont be till next year. . .but we can still look forward to one thing and that is giving a bitch slap to the Scum as we over take their spend at all costs squad!

My issue with the team is that we're not competitive for trophies. So I find impressive runs like we're on now ultimatley frustrating because we don't turn it on when it matters, so to speak. I'm still very much open to the prospect of a change in manager because I feel as though Wenger has reached a ceiling with the team.

I can understand the frustration of SWAYR if you read between the WUMing and e-warrior crap, it does feel like we've been here before. Hell, we were all buzzing about Nasri and how good we looked this time last year. This club are absolute masters in flattering to deceive despite there always being some points for optimism.

If you want to look at this season in isolation however, we have done well to recover after the manager failed to prepare for the departues of Nasri and Fabregas, and as much as I don't like to say it, 4th place would probably be an achievement for a change because it's something we've worked towards and not just fallen back on.

and it starts. the merry-go-round is back in full flow.

i guess this is exactly the outcome the board wanted to hook you all back in.

a terrible season with a couple of great results and some of you already talking about how we could be great again. this is perfect for the board; they can continue underfunding the team knowing you're all going to be hooked for another 3 or 4 years hoping this team is going to turn out well.

read somewhere on the forum some people saying 'we have a great core of players we can build on'

how many times have we said that over the years only to be left disappointed?

this is exactly what the board wanted, now they have an excuse not to spend because the 'team showed tremendous fight and spirit', we dont need players because 'we already have them and we dont want to kill the core youngsters we have'.

open your eyes.

I was one of the people saying that I think we have a good core, and I think we do, the names I mentioned have the makings of a good team.

Sure we have said the same in the past. . .and then too we did have good players. . .what we didnt do then and this year is give that core quality support. We definitely didn't
have a keeper we could trust in as much as we can Chesney.

A challenger needs that kind of squad. . .a bench we can believe in, not one that is there just to make up numbers but one that can enhance quality not diminish it.

Whoever is in charge come next season needs to address that, if yhat quality core that you laugh at some talking about is to flourish!

Its not about opening ones eyes because they are already. . .but thanks for the advise
