So, is Wenger out officially out?

[Bumble]

All our signings in the summer are actually good, which makes a nice change. Yet despite this we still don't think we have done enough. Defensively we are one serious injury away to Kos or Merte and we are screwed. Relying on Chambers who was right back at Southampton to cover for a long period of time is a huge risk and beyond him... Monreal as a CB.... really???? He isn't big or strong enough to do that role. It is difficult getting a 4th choice CB as you want someone who can step in straight away so perhaps a experienced head would have done. I still think Ferdinand could have done a job for us, past his best but hates John Terry.

Anyway maybe we have a superstar in the youth team, who knows. The Capital One cup team will be interesting.

Also Wenger has said Bellerin is quality going forward.... hmmmm rather have a right back that can defend first.

Mesut Ozil's mid-season lull now lasts from August until May, so why hasn't Arsene Wenger got the balls to drop him?


Mesut Ozil produces lazy performances on a regular basis for Arsenal
The German is notorious for fading during the second half of the season
But now Ozil's lull lasts from August until May
Arsene Wenger doesn't have the bottle to take the £42m out the side
Alexis Sanchez, by contrast, works hard and has more quality

Daily Fail's daily Ozil bash. (although to be fair they have a point in a way).

Monreal at CB has to be suicide. If we knew it would be difficult to find a third choice CB, why sell Verm to Barca? He still puts profit over practicality. He’s now saying we need a bit of ‘luck’ to stay injury free. No, we need common sense. We sold Verm, sold Djouoru, sold Ginter .sold Miquel , Sagna walked and loaned out Jenkinson. I’m pretty sure a few posters will say they were all rubbish and that was the argument when talk of Verm leaving cropped up, but I doubt anyone would go as far as arguing Monreal is a better option for CB. If we couldn’t find a dedicated 3rd choice CB, why not bring back Alex Song? We need a DM anyway.

This transfer window is a bit of a puzzle in that we do seem to have signed some good players.
And yet...while we're possibly stronger up front we now look hopelessly weak at the back which, for once, wasn't a big problem last season.

The board wouldn't give him money.

I'll say one thing, if we drop out of the top 4 this season then Wenger has nowhere to hide.

He has spent a pile of cash this Summer, right now it looks like he's neglected/not addressed the areas that needed the most attention in the team/squad.

We are going to have a real battle on our hands to finish top 4 this season, i really do hope we are well prepared because it's not going to be pretty.

[Marc Overmars]

Whatever happens this season I'm sure we'll blunder our way into 4th, as usual.

[Xhaka Can’t]

We will. Most likely at Liverpools expense.

Because he's a lazy, disruptive pile of crap?

Enough about Arteta, what about Song?
