Wenger's inconsistent standards

[Olivier's xmas twist]

the second isnt as true this season as it is in recent years imo. the last htree weeks show that, yes we are out of everything but still there is something different there right now, a spirit and a pride i havnt seen for years. ive said before but this year i feel like im supporting my team not players playing for my team. many games this year, even when we have lost, there has been a fight.

Yep the teams has fought a lot this season more then it has in the last 3 tbh. The effort they have shown has been immense shame the quality has not be there to go with it.

No sure about being the 1st name on the sheet, no way fab would always be 1st. my point was, that we had Nasri/Cesc/Song so we not have to rely on jack that much.

We don't have that quality. with the attackers being poor as they are (except rvp) AOC it would be on his young shoulders and if he does mess up you'll get a few who would have been on his back.

Not everyone even wanted him when we signed him, he was a "waste of money" Now he's the best thing since slice bread.

We did rely on Jack though. Fabregas was a fraud last year and Nasri didn't turn up after Christmas, Wilshere was the ever present.

Charlie, I think you might have it the other way. Wilshere made around 50 appearances last season and was a guaranteed starter because he was impossible to drop. Over the course of the season, he out-performed cesc and nasri comfortably. There was around a 2-3 month period where Nasri was absolutely incredible but for consistency and quality, Jack was the best in the league IMO. We haven't been relying on AOC because we do have options in that position. We're not even sure whether he will start tomorrow. e.g. Against Tottenham we went with Benayoun because we needed a possession player. He hasn't made many appearances this season and he hasn't had the season Jack had last year. I think we can expect a few goals from him now though. And I also think he will go to the Euros with Wilshere.

Touche lads Touche.
Although, i don't think Jack owuld have started many games had Like M O said the other 2 not been as bad as they were he would have been rotated more.

This season it seems that either AW is learning from the wilshere thing and does not want to give a burnout to another youngster( which i don't really get has the youngsters should have lots of energy imo)

Or he seems in the 2nd half of the season apart from RVP and AOC his attaking options are poor and does not want to burden the young lad.

Would be nice for AOC,Theo, Jack, Gibbs or go to the Euros tbh, nice to see Arsenal players back in the england sqaud.
