    Well it's been widely reported that the Money IS there, Wenger has a big transfer kitty, long gone are the days where he can plead poverty.

    The reason we were all desperate for a signing in the Winter transfer window was because Wenger botched up the Summer window, it's as simple as that.

    As far as I am concerned, if Wenger isn't prepared to spend the available funds on improving the squad then he shouldn't be in his job.

    Simeone is doing a fantastic job at Athletico and seems to be an up and coming manager, Bergkamp is an unknwon but a clown he certainly isn't (ok his fear of flying might be a problem however).
    If they had won " their trophies" with a very tight budget , if they have revolutionised their teams and their leagues , if they have been consistent in the champion's league , if they have increased the vision of their team by building something similar to the Emirates Stadium , if they have been loyal to their team and not wanting out when things went wrong , I would take my hat off for them . But I doubt they have done that . So Wenger all the way for me . I was disappointed today like everyone but Wenger deserves some credit .
    DO NOT POSTPONE TODAY'S DUTY FOR TOMORROW .IT MAY BE TOO LATE .

    TBF to him, he hasn't ever pleaded poverty despite being in relevant poverty. But that era is over. Can he adapt, can he change the way he has worked over the past decade?

    He was the right guy to transform this Club, initially by turning us into a club ripe for growth and transformation and then manage us through the change. But I don't think he is the right guy now - the last two transfer windows indicate that.

    We've just had another car crash game against one of our 'rivals'. The same type of team we always seem to loose to and have no chance of beating anymore it would seem.

    Over the long term we are seeing the same season on repeat.

    It's time for a change
    Bang on! Old Wumger must fuck off now!

    He bought one of the best players in the world (i know he hasnt performed super for us, but he was widely regarded as one of the best) and we have a big chance of winning the FA cup, i would say he has done pretty well so far

    If winning a trophy and bringing in a top class player like Özil in his first year after our financial "crisis" is not enough, i dont know what is :s

    Bought one of the best players in the world, but neglected strengthening the areas of the squad which needed investment the most. Had he got in a striker and a CDM not named Arteta, we would've been way more competitive, and probably even won the league this season.

    Wenger's fault.

    He went after the best striker in the world...

    But he got no one in. .

    He should've had a list of targets all done up. He didn't. And we had to field the likes of Bendtner/Giroud/Sanogogo against top teams like Bayern.

    He could go after Ronaldo and make bids for him, it wouldn't mean anything if he didn't sign.

    Wenger may not sign a new contract at the end of the season and that's a fact we have to deal with. He's never skipped a press conference before and I think this loss is going to hurt him badly and there may be a lot of soul searching after this heavy defeat.

    And if we had landed him the Wenger could have stayed. Because it's true what they say about football, it's all about your last result. That's why the glory has gone out of it. Half chewed prawn sandwiches gobbed in the air in fury. This is the modern game.
