    It is sheer lunacy if Arsene genuinely believes that we have enough. Its things like this that make him look a complete and utter fool.
    I know Letters finds it disrespectful and uncalled for but seriously?!?!

    wtf else are people supposed to think of someone who says stuff like this and refuses to administer change when it is needed?

    We missed out on that Alvarez chap, Wenger clearly identified him as a player in a position that we needed. Has anyone else been lined up to replace that target? Its seems not, absolutely fuck all so far. Its just not good enough for a top club and is actually completely unproffesional.

    I just dont see how anyone can defend him anymore, I really cant.

    No what we needed was a manager who woke up and saw there was a big problem. We could have Bought 5 Messi's and still finshed out the top 4 tbh. It don't matter who we buy until the AW and board and player Attitude of not being bothered changes. Also we need strong mentality Until AW works at that nothing will change.

    I highly doubt aw eveb believes some of the shit that comes out of his mouth, but he is keeping the board happy and that is all that matters.

    If Nasri gets sold over his head, we will see a diffrent side to AW real soon.

    of course he doesn't yet still too many people hook into his words even though he has been so consistent, ever since he came here. he gives politician answers and gives away as little as possible to the press.

    Whether he tells the truth or not is neither here nor there, the issue is he doesn't do the necessary in the transfer market and pampers his players way too much.

    Actions speak louder than words and his actions basically support the fact he doesn't think we need much, after all he's always signings unknowns from the French league, unlike some of the other managers he doesn't seem capable of identifying problems and addressing them.

    Frankly there's no defence for the sort of neglect he's been guilty of, the average man can see the issues and yet he doesn't seem to be able to, is that really all we can get for a 6 million a year salary?

    He's had more than enough chances now to solve the problems, I'm afraid he hasn't and just doesn't cut the mustard anymore, it's only a money motivated board keeping him in the job...if they were truly interested in success and the football he'd have been gone by now.

    It's a shame it's come to this to be honest, but IMO he's completely overshadowed what he achieved in the early days with the last 6 years.

    I'm not sure we need as many players as was suggested above but we did need 1 or 2 more serious signings. The squad needs it. The fans need it.
    It has gone worryingly quiet and although I think Gervinho is looking like a decent signing we need more.
    I don't think we're that far away in terms of ability, it's organisation and mentality which are the bigger problems and new signings won't fix that.
    If we continue to drop points in silly ways this season and drop off at crunch time then it'll be desperately disappointing.
    I do think we need to look at other options manager-wise if so but if people think that Wenger is this bumbling idiot and that when he leaves all our problems will be solved and we'll be great again then I think they'll get a wakeup call when it happens.

    We needed that many to replace the ones that we need to get shot of. Bendy, Denilson, Eboue, Almunia, Rosicky, Squallaci. Really, in that case we need 6 or 7 as we would still need to strengthen after replacing the dross.

    Surely though, having 5+ new players would change the mentality of the team. Hopefully they would be experienced enough to want to win and know what it takes, which if you had enough of them come in, would filter through to the rest of the team?

    There's a lot of truth in what Zim is saying though.

    A couple of seasons back Arsene said "Judge me at the end of the season, if we don't win anything the Project has failed"

    He was right, the Project has failed.

    A couple of seasons on Arsene continues on with his failed & flawed policies.

    If Arsene was judged on a "Results" only basis he would be out of job right now.

    well he said 'judge me in may' he's smart enough to never refer to the project

    but of course we all know he'd be out of a job at utd or chelsea

    i kinda got itsme's point of view about that quite a while ago

    Yeah true...he did say judge me in May but he was pretty much stating that he would need to change his strategy if we failed. He basically moves the goalposts every year, at the beginning and the end of the season.

    IMHO He'd be out of a job at Liverpool too.

    Come on Arsene.

    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
