For us at least, it's been a struggle to sign top players anyway and we've been in the bloody competition for almost 20 years!

As for the title, I don't see anything beyond the usual half-baked challenge that ends after Christmas. I'd love to be proven wrong but I don't believe we have the will or aggression that Mourinho and Pep will undoubtedly drive home with their teams.

I care because i want us to play in the top European competition, the attitude well we won't win it as long as Wenger is in charge depends on him being manager after this season.....and the fan base may be mollified short term but if this season goes like every other and the crowd turns ugly will it really be worth it for the owner to risk things financially by keeping this going for another three years?

Do i think he will be manager next season? yes because he does always seem to do enough to keep his job....but there is no guarantee....the people who want Wenger to stay seem long term seem to form a very niche minority now. And no talk of contract extension on the horizon.
