I wish I could say for sure that we will be fine, but what I can say for sure is that there will be an attempt to fix a broken system. At least we will try to do something different. Frankly that is good enough for me. This team is filled with potential and we are seeing very little of it because of the manager.
Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..
So what have we learned from that game? Not much that we didn't already know. Our defence is shit, our offence is shit. We're only three games into the season and we've failed to score in two home games. Wengerball
I think Cech really needed a game like this to put West Ham behind him. I hope that performance gives him the confidence to start bossing his defenders around more because Cech has been exposed in every game this season. They need someone to give them a bollocking because it wont be Wenger.
Giroud is a sack of shit. Usually he's at least an outlet for us when we need to get the ball up the pitch quickly with a long ball, but in games when a CB dominates him in the air he has nothing. Skrtel didn't give him a chance aerially and that took him out of the game. Terry usually does that to him too.
Did you watch Cesc against West Brom a couple of days ago? He was just as bad, if not worse. It's just form, but when both are on song I'd pick Cazorla every time. On current form he shouldn't be playing though. What's the point of having a lot of CMs if you can't rotate them when one of them is playing badly? A bit of time on the bench might be what he needs to fix himself up.

I can't understand why the better players ie Ozil & Sanchez are not on Wengers case regarding improving the squad. Giroud is awful, really awful. how many times did we see the ball go from side to side 30 yards out with Giroud standign still in the box. He needs to be making quick movements to open up space or receive a through ball. Wenger stated yesterday on Sky that he didn't feel sorry for Liverpool regarding losing their best players every year because they didn't sell us Suarez. This then confirms that Wenger knows the type of striker we need ( therefore not Giroud ) but has done absolutely F.A. about getting anyone in. Doesn't matter if they're not quite as good as Suarez, they'll still be better than Giroud.
With Cazorla it's not current form. He looked good against Palace and was totally crap today. He's done that before last season towards the end when chasing second. Had a string of very good games and then had an awful game where the passing and decisions totally off. He's always been like that. Both on good form.... I don't see Santi getting over 20 assists and 15 goals or more. He really hasn't got it in him.
