    Whether it will...well, who knows.
    We should win, not sure about smash though, we can barely field an 11 at the moment. Call me a pessimist but given our recent league form I'm not overly confident of beating anyone.

    Of course, the perfect storm. And it doesn't appear he lets anyone have an opinion on the training ground either, certainly not when it comes to defending. There's no way Bould would allow the shit that goes on - turning backs on the ball, leaving men unmarked at set-pieces, getting out-muscled. This would all be weird but acceptable if we were properly challenging for the big prizes but we never get a sniff. At the chavs, gypos or utd this wouldn't be permitted. Not even at Liverpool. Wenger would have been sacked 5 times over by now if he'd have been at any of those clubs. I think we confuse doing the right thing, the Arsenal way, with complacency. In sport you keep moving forward or you fall behind. This comfortable bullshit we get every season shouldn't be acceptable. It shouldn't be for the fans to be pro-Wenger or anti-Wenger, it should be for the board to realise objectives aren't being met and to act.

    Of course objectives ARE being met. Money. A two decade payday from that 4th place trophy and last 16 berth in the CL. And so skilfully sold and stage managed many fans are in awe of the mediocrity. Doesn't change the reality. In terms of the size of this club and the results returned, particularly against our major rivals, we're a long way behind par. As you say, questioning it is not tolerated in certain quarters.

    Not much left to debate. We all know (including you) whats going to happen over the course of the season. I'll more than likely come back and debate you on the same topic again to keep this place ticking. I am here to do my part to keep GW alive!

    Careful. Those veins in your neck will let go any minute now
    You remind me of Cripps. Walcott love was his greatest flaw.

    Even you should be able to figure out that there is a vital component Walcott brings to this team. Something Giroud lacks but what our most successful strikers under Wenger had. Speed and mobility. Without that we's never have beaten Bayern or Man Utd. Try to understand what I'm saying here even if we disagree on Walcott being the solution. Don't bring up a useless stat that blurs the argument and ignores the fact that we haven't been the same team since his injury.

    Walcott is good (not great) and we can do better. My problem with Walcott is that he is hardly ever fit, and I am tired of the club gambling so much on crocks. Another person who I think is a great player is Rosicky, but what is the point of him? He has hardly made any significant impact over a season for us. I'd rather we get rid of crocks like Walcott, Wilshere and Rosicky and invest in people who can stay fit for 10 games at a stretch!

    If I knew what was going to happen I wouldn't bother following it. Nor would you.
