Summer Transfer Misery and Recriminations.

[Xhaka Can’t]

It's ironic that in operating in the way we do in hope of getting the best prices, by leaving it this late we're probably going to pay way OTT anyway.

Tbh, unless there is a major surprise on the horizon we are now at the point where there is nothing to be gained by entering the transfer market now.

The course for this season has been set.

Enjoy.

If we really wanted a striker and were serious about challenging, we would have signed him BEFORE the season started. By the end of the window, we could find ourselves with 1 point from nine BECAUSE of the lack of striker! Its unbelievable how much this manager neglects his work and continues to ignore obvious weaknesses.

Considering the situation we're in and the way he's back himself into a corner, I can't see anything happening either. We'd have to find a club desperate to sell on deadline day at this point.

Aye, we're screwed, we either overpay for garbage or bring nobody in. I don't understand the mind set of Wenger and the way he operates in the market.

It's been my life and, quite honestly, I'm scared of the day. Because the longer I wait, the more difficult it will be to lose the addiction,"

He's here to stay (and die).

firstly i think it's fucked up that wenger has to give the green light to changes that he probably won't be around to benefit from, second makes you wonder if instead of transfers money is being ploughed into this project, don't get me wrong i don't think it would cost hundreds of millions to overhaul the academy but maybe it's an example of the club looking beyond Wenger. I don't know i see a lot of evidence of everything from a footballing sense being left in Wenger's hands, but if honestly someone like Gazidis is thinking a few moves ahead than fair play to him.

Jonker overhauling the scouting system and staff is a good example of someone with experience at the highest level restructuring how we operate. We need similar appointments at the club. It's a shame Adams and Henry haven't taken the coaching roles but I think it's possible for things to change once Wenger is gone because it seems like we're open to change but it has to be run past Wenger first.

I'd love to think the club have held back the funds from Wenger this season because that would indicate his time is up but I don't think that's the case.

Lacacettte -5 goals in 3 games.

It's not going to happen for us. Crazy.

A waste of money IMO. We reward players before they have even achieved anything. How can someone as useless as Walcott be earning 100k + for the past 3-4 years? what has he achieved? how can Iwobi get a new bumper contract just a few months after singing a new deal? 2 good games last season and he was rewarded with a pay rise. Im not even gonna go on about the wastemen we had 5 years ago (Denilson, Bentnder, Chamakh, Squillaci etc all on really good contracts.

So you think Wenger is a "tight cunt" who is "wasting money"?

[Letters]

Nobody expects us to be challenging for the title. We have the resources to challenge, but not the will nor the nous.

And that is the problem with Wenger and/or the Board. They are not even operating a self sustaining business model any longer because that would involve maximising the use of the resources we are ploughing in to their business enterprise.

I don't expect us to challenge for the title this season, but I do think we SHOULD be challenging for the title with our resources.
The fact I feel we should challenge, and the fact I don't expect us to are both down to Wenger, confusingly.

Why won't you just admit he needs to go?

So sick of you defending him for everything.

JOSE WOULD BLOCK ARSENAL MOVE

Manchester United are set to reject any offer from Arsenal for Phil Jones, because Jose Mourinho doesn’t want to do business with Arsene Wenger, according to the London Evening Standard.

Arsenal are also reportedly interested in Jones, as their hunt for a centre-back goes on.

From Sky. would we want him anyway?
