    His way of saying, "my squad", "my handpicked players", "the squad with the most potential".

    Just Wenger PR.

    and petrol prices have ON AVERAGE been on the rise -- but I fuc*king get myself to work one way or the other (ADAPT) without bankrupting myself! And I make sure I get there on time -- otherwise you get sacked for repeated lateness. Hence the means of adapting has to be PRACTICAL BUT AT THE SAME TIME WITHIN THE REALMS OF THE REAL WORLD.




    There is a big different to be fair

    budesonide, running a deficit is not how you adapt to the structural advantages of bigger clubs. You either ask the fans to fork out more cash (lol), get more revenue from commercial deals (which isn't an option now) or bring an owner who's willing to invest in the squad.

    Also good luck with 'adapting' (your doing nothing of the sort, getting mugged like the rest of us) to perpetually rising oil prices.

    Fuck all as long as we have Wenger in charge. Man U just sign Young, and they are the Champions. We know we were shit, but have done nowt to address the issue, this is like every transfer window over again. Wenger out.

    Has Man City's (and Chelsea's) new found wealth adversely affected us? Yes, because they've moved up the table at our expense. However, can you claim that their financial resources is the only factor that has determined our stagnation? No, because many of the faults that this squad suffers from are entirely due to the players and the manager's poor coaching. For example, defensively we have been very poor, constantly conceding from set pieces and losing sloppy goals due to unforced errors (e.g. Squillaci and Almunia vs WBA, Koscielny and Sczcnezny against Brum). This is completely down to a lack of defensive quality and organisation, and the fault for this lies squarely with Wenger.

    Sure, you could argue that if we competed with City for a defender, they would outbid us. However, there are plenty of defenders in the world who wouldn't cost the earth but who would stabilise the defence. Moreover, it's not likely that City would chase exactly the same defenders as us, given their defence is settled anyway.

    Moreover, you can't blame City's wealth for our tendency to panic when holding onto a narrow lead. This stems from a lack of leadership on the field, and a lack of defensive organisation, which is the responsibility of the whole team (especially the captain), and in particular the manager, who should have drilled into the squad the importance of keeping our shape when trying to see a game out.

    No one denies that City and Chelsea's wealth has changed the balance of power, but it's by no means the only reason for our stagnation. Wenger has made poor decisions in the transfer window, and his inability to instill a sense of discipline into the team has cost us infinitely more than anything City have done.

    Id have more respect for people crying 'wenger out' if they were to do it with placards outside the ground on matchday.

    The mental image of cripps and his mob marching around the emirates is making me lol tbh.
