    Wenger loves to take these gambles but it’s been a while since he’s pulled one out the bag with a young player. What’s happening with Joe Campbell and Wellington Silva? I hope this kid turns out to be a gem and only time will tell. Excited to see him play.

    If we supplement signings like Sanogo with the likes of Higuain, Bender, etc then that's not a problem. However, too often in the past Wenger's only made cheap signings in the summer and failed to properly reinforce the squad, the worry is he'll do something similar this summer as well.

    Yeah I'm with you. I have nothing against Wenger buying youth, though he evidently indulges in Youth Purchases. That said, like you have stated he must buy experienced quality, this summer is more crucial than any other in my opinion.

    If this came after we'd signed a couple of ambitious signings, then I doubt anyone would mind that much, but it's that horrible feeling that we've seen this all before.

    - Arsene gives his January speech "If we find someone special, we will do it"
    - Annual collapse, or fight for fourth place ensues
    - We sneak in to the CL spot, just
    - Everyone says we must do better
    - Press leaks suggesting we have X amount to spend
    - Ivan does his sweet talking to the fan forums / papers around June time
    - One or Two big names get blasted about (it's called spin, and this is Ivan's job)
    - Those few big names are our "trying to hammer out a deal all summer" players we have no intention of signing
    - We buy someone on the cheap who is a gamble
    - Arsene gives his summer speech about "if we find someone special we will do it"
    - August comes, and we get told that there was nobody available


    And repeat.
