    And yet you give him no credit for our good run which has seen us recover from our awful start and get into contention for the top 4.

    My previous posts in other threads, I give him credit for doing a commendable job.. Also, we had our bad start coz of AW and his 'waiting period'. Its like he pushes you in a well and when he pulls you out, you should be thankful to him!

    He dug the hole we are in right now! He is the one not playing OAC, Park or even putting them on the bench. Its not that they looked like deer in headlights when they have started! Why did we buy them?

    I have made peace with the fact that Arsene is going to stay till the end of the season but the thought of him being manager next season makes me sick to my stomach!

    You did. Also remember the word commendable, I did not go out and sing his praises. I mentioned how the players look like they are playing for the shirt and AW seems to be on the right path and we need a few players to make this a better unit.

    Spot on.

    And we haven't been able to get these "few players" until now. Because we couldn't sign anyone.

    If AW is to blam for yesterday, it is because of the tactical decisions he made (so I hear). Players of the calibre we had on the pitch should have been more than adequte to see off Fulham.

    But when you have the likes of Arshavin et al off form and not performing when you need them, and a horrific deficit at fullback, you can see why the first 11 we've relied on might be a little "in the red zone" after playing 2 games in 3 days, having pulled us back tirelessly from 18th spot.
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

    I still think we should have rotated as much as possible yesterday.

    The defence and keeper the same due to lack of choice but the others? Can anyone seriously think that this


    -------------------bguiyb1chjcbnc--------------

    -The Gay Lion----Meatpacker---Bart-----Miguel----

    ------Benayoun-------Rosicky------Le Coq-----

    --Arshavin------------------------------The Ox----

    -------------------Schmuck----------------


    Couldnt have got a result at Fulham? Cos if we don't then we need to do some deck clearing and spending

    No point talking about Ox. Has he made any Prem appearances so far?

    Wenger hasn't bedded him ( ) into the first team at all so he's not gonna be ready to start away to Fulham.

    Wenger obviously has no faith in our squad at all to have rotated so little.

    I blame my mates misses for our defeat we were listening to the match on the radio and at the time we were winning but she decided that she wanted to watch Emmerdale and when it had finished we had lost so its her fault....

    The part I've highlighted is a Brilliant analogy and exactly how I feel about Arsene.

    On here we're forever giving Arsene the benefit of the doubt saying that things will come good eventually. It's not even about trophies for me, it hasn't been for a number of years, for me it's about the manager using his resources to the maximum and pushing the team/squad as far as he can. I absolutely do not believe he's doing this, or at least not in a pragmatic/I'll win at all costs way. Look I'm not saying we should spend like Citeh or Chelsea or radically change the way we do things, I just want us to be more proactive and not reactive when it comes to the playing squad. There are other things I could mention but I don't want this post to go the way of a "Arsene out" Thread as that is a separate discussion IMHO.

    Maybe he has been, no one knows really hows much the board relasing to him every season and we never will. Its easy to say he is tight, cheap etc but truth is we will never know.

    pushing the sqaud to the limit he has done that for the sqauds he has had, they are only as good as they are.
