Winter Transfer Window - Cold and Lonely.

[Power n Glory]

I'm talking as if Wenger deserves a bit more credit than he gets on here for getting us where we are. The level of disrespect and abuse he gets on here is unwarranted IMO although I do get the frustration at repeated mistakes and he does talk a load of balls in interviews - no more than most other managers though.

My expectations now are for us to challenge for the biggest prizes. The new stadium is now working for us rather than against and we have the resources to compete with anyone. So no, my expectations wouldn't change if we had another manager, I think we need another manager because Wenger isn't delivering my expectations and this week's game was just another example of why he isn't.

Wenger has been respected and once he leaves and retires things won't be so negative. You don't need to bring it up in every debate when talking about him.

People don't need to go overboard and act like toddlers all the time. Every time they do I'll respond.

But you're talking to me about a separate issue on your expectations and perspective on things after this loss. We don't have to get into a debate about the abuse. I've said it before, it's mostly a spontaneous thing on here. Despite what we say, the losses still burn.

Representatives of Arsenal and Barcelona have met to discuss the transfer of right back Hector Bellerin, according to reports in Spain.

The 21-year-old has been heavily linked with a return to his hometown club, and the front page of Spanish paper Sport has revealed that they are in negotiations.

Bellerin was plucked from Barcelona's academy by Arsene Wenger in 2011 at the age of 16, but could be set for a sensational £35m return to the Nou Camp.

Just a rumour of course but I have been expecting this. I assume the 35 mill is a huge piss take? He's on a 5 year contract and he's considered to be one of the best prospects in Europe. Price would start at 50? More?

It really isn't if you listen to him talk, never accepting any blame, never blaming his team, in fact doing the opposite and saying they were very good despite getting absolutley thrashed, on top of that he goes a step further and has the audacity to blame the paying public!

He deserves everythng he gets, if we wasn't so arrogant and accepted his mistakes, he'd get far more respect, the fact he doesn't is entirely on him.

As for not being any worse than other managers, that's rubbish sorry, what other manager points the finger at the fans all the time, what other manager never criticises his team, what other manager has the cheek to blame the current atmosphere on "top bad weeks", what other manager credits his team after getting hammered twice in a row in the CL?

Let me tell you the answer, none of them, for some reason you just refuse to see that his behaviour is absurd and is what really antagonises people.

Yes but as we saw with Cesc if Barca (and Cole with Chelsea) want someone we'll bend over and let them have him.

So Lukaku wants to leave Everton

Perfectly timed as well, as it came mere seconds after having a conversation with an Everton fan convinced he was staying and whose face dropped to the floor.

Anyway, you should get him.

Not convinced about him, reminds me of Heskey, misses a lot, not a great first touch, very overrated IMO.

Thanks but i think we can do better, besides nothing matters as much as getting Wenger out of here. We could pick the best 11 from Barca, Bayern and RM, we would still be 2nd rate with Wenger at the helm.
