Almost as if he's never seen the same, season after season.

We need a new Bergkamp or Ozil moment this summer, nothing else will do. There has to be a statement of intent from somebody at the club. Something that says we are in it and want to win it. Otherwise this all drifts on and with anything fan based (and increasingly fashion based) if you can't keep engaging the punters then you are going to fade out.

Of course that blog mentions what's really likely to engage us in the summer. Trying to get Ozil and Alexis to sign. If all they are promised is more of the same old shit then they'll be off and with no shortage of takers. A couple of fatal holes well below the waterline.
Even if we did sign a big name I wouldn't trust Wenger to get the most out of him performance wise or in mentality and lets be honest we should have a team strong in the all the key areas after spending 150 million since 2013.
