Charlie, Arsene identifies the players and has a budget to work with, he's always making comments about being in total control of the technical side of the club so therefore it's his responsibility. If we have people at the club like Ivan who are unable to complete transfer negotiations then they should be fired. He's paid a whole lot of money to do a job, he should be doing it properly and Arsene should be complaining to the board that the powers of be who are in charge of the negotiations aren't doing their jobs properly.

I do think that everybody has a part to blame but I still hold Arsene more responsible than anybody else, it's his team.
