    Trouble with this is that we have had all the `bright young talent` stuff for years, and it never worked, or if it did, they upped and left. Many were calling for big name signings, of which we have made a few (ozil, Alexis, Cech), now some are saying we need to go back to scouting young, up-coming players. For me I was fed up of the `nearly` teams we had, and craved to sign established players.

    True to an extent but I also think we're now in a position to sign the best young players. No more random punts like Sanogo, Denilson, Bischoff etc.

    It's a balancing act that I don't feel Wenger as ever really got to grips with, we always seem to end up with a lopsided squad in one way or another.

    See your point, trouble is these young players are now fetching silly money too. I will reserve judgement on `the next Henry` Martial until he has done it for 5+ years. Once he has scored 25+ a season for those seasons, got 10 assists per season, and has single handed grabbed the team by the scruff of the neck and dragged them to victories when struggling. In this day and age of super lazy journalism and jumping on the next bandwagon every bleeding week.
    We see so many young players tear it up for 6 months-2 years, before just slipping away. It is a balancing act, I agree.

    The market is the market. The issue is Wenger is always at war with the market hence why we are very slow movers. If a great young talent now costs 30million + to secure their signature then that's what we have to pay to get them to the club, everybody else does it and we are certainly in a position to do it ourselves.

    It's no point having the stance of watching someone bang in 25 goals for a couple of seasons and then say in hindsight they are now worth the fee. Every transfer free is a risk regardless of whether a player is a great young talent or established star.

    Our issue with player recruitment is Wenger, he is the one that dithers and is reluctant to meet players valuations due to his "principled" stance on things.

He may actually be saying all this for the benefit of his wife. We all saw the Brazil pictures and that rapper chicka he was having it off with.

    You just know he smashed her back doors in.
    NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.

    Wenger refuses to dignify that horrid little cock Maureen with a response.

    Therefore - FEUD RUMBLES ON!

    Doesn't matter what you say or do, we're having a fucking feud and that's that!

    The best thing about Mourinho showing himself up as the stupid little cunt he is, is that the stupid little cunty Arsenal fans that respected Mourinho have shut the fuck up instead of sucking Chelsea cock. fucking horrific club. Even know Chelsea fans that feel embarrassed by Mourinho. Utter, utter twat that appeals only to the Talksport simpletons.
