Away Form

[Letters]

The collective "they" - there's a value being placed on this trophy by many fans and they are very naive if they think Wenger and the board aren't going to cash that value in.

Of course there's value in it.
There's value in any trophy.
It wouldn't change my view on whether Wenger should stay, maybe it would sway some fans.

"...so I guess time will tell."

How much time? He's has over a decade. How much more time will it take to tell?

What other manager has had so much time?

And here we are, no defence, no midfield, 100 mill quid of disconnected strikers up top. Losing to Newcastle to keep our perfect record of ZERO points away from home in 2018 intact. Literally the worst away club in British football. The worst!

How much more time?

Then.
Why.
Is.
Our.
Home.
Form.
So.
Good?

Do we have a different manager for home games?
Can we not have one fucking thread where people can sensibly debate? Yes yes, Wenger Out. I think we've all established that.
But I can't think of another where the discrepancy between home and away form has been quite so marked.

There was a year where it was the opposite. Our home form was bad but our away form was good. As people keep trying to tell you, it comes back to the manager. Everytime. There is no debate to be had about it. We can improve in one area and then fall short in a major way in another. It's like watching a watching a ridiculous Frank Spencer comedy routine where he somehow, someway ends up in a ridiculous situation.

We can try to improve on our away form next season but something else in another area will fall apart. There is no other way to solve this problem.

And he always finds a way to compartmentalise, and then rationalise the failures (in his own head anyway). He's the ultimate spin doctor. Fortunately most fans see through the bullshit now.

What's up with that?

Our home form is 3rd best, behind City, obvs, and Utd.

Our away form is mid-table at best.

Any thoughts as to why we are such a car crash away from home this season? The discrepancy really is massive.

It has been covered on this thread already but our team lacks so many required fundamental aspects that going away and expecting to win anywhere in PL has now become fruitless IMO.

NQ summed it up earlier, we have no Defence, No Midfield and a disjointed Attack.

This team lacks a personality and quite clearly isn't setup or organised in any logical sense.

We all know what the problem is...it doesn't even need to be repeated again and again.
