Only one Arsene Wenger? Has he failed to clone himself so he can manage us in perpetuity then
How many Arsene Wengers does it take to change a lightbulb?
None....the lightbulb doesn't need changing, the dirty unsafe oil lamp can be an "internal solution"

you pay for what you get
they've paid extra for the quality needed to win the league, we haven't
And how are you proposing we compete with City and Chelsea financially?
The new financial deals have allowed us to start signing big (Ozil and Sanchez) but even then we can't compete with a club with the infinite money cheat on.
Before those deals were in place we had no chance.
We've had good enough players to win the league.
In fact, the one good thing Wenger has done, is buy players who are little bit special. He has bought duds, but every manager does.
The stupid berk is just too blinded, and too stubborn to address areas of weakness, as he doesn't like being proved wrong. And he expects his players to find on the pitch solutions themselves...he doesn't do tactics.
Good players, managed well make a successful team. Brilliant players managed badly, crumble.
It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
Do you think anyone bar Chelsea or City can win the title this year?
EDIT: Since we last won the title only 3 teams have done it. Utd, City and Chelsea. All 3 have bigger resources than us and one was managed by, let's face it, the GOAT. I still have no idea how they won the title last time they did, they were awful but Fergie dragged them to the title by sheer will.
We should certainly be doing better but cherry-picking a rare counter-example does not alter the fact that, in general, the teams with the biggest resources tend to be the ones winning titles.
That has less to do with money and more to do with the fact we have an incompetent manager. If Wenger and Simeone had changed positions in the last 3 seasons. 2 things are certain. Madrid would not have won la Liga or reached CL final, Arsenal would have been closer in challenging for the big prizes.

But then that would suggest the same last year - Liverpool were a Gerrard slip away from winning it last year with a very similar team to the one they had had the year before, no major money spent only decent signings that we could have made.
