The Madness of Arsene Wenger

my point was more saying irrespective of set pieces there is a problem with the defence full stop. Every goal scored is arguably a defensive mistake if you want to be pedantic, but there are times when it's simply unforgiveable such as sunderland away where having defended so stoutly for the entire game we switch off on 94 minutes....that's criminal in my book.

comparing him to Alan Greenspan is harsh in the extreme, in that I don't believe Greenspan is an Idelogue people like him and Larry Summers were crooks with a vested interest in total deregulation of the market place, and when it failed they weren't the people who suffered.

And we do it every season. Wenger doesn't have a point.

agreed, there are massive issues with the defence that need to be resolved before anything changes with the team. however, it's far more pedantic to analyse every goal conceded and raise it as part of the larger problem.

well as i say i was more explaining that it's a fallacy to say we are that strong defensively outside of set pieces

He did. I understood the point he was making.
