something special = win a trophy, compete in all compeitions, prove everyone wrong.
we both agree we need 3/4 players. we're both wanting the same thing, we are saying the same thing.
Except you want them all to be Brazilian which is completely unrealistic.

The problem is we're most likely not going to get 3-4 top quality players. We'll be lucky to get one tbh.
Or unlucky to get one if we go by Wenger's definition of quality.

Nice. Veeeerrrrry nice.
It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
although it is just a friendly. for the first 60 odd minutes, it was pretty much first teams for both sides. there is a fair amount we can take from this game. its not like this game is played in asia weeks before the season starts. it was played one week before the season starts. the final game of pre season. while not played at 100%, it was close to it. this team looked good, kept city quiet and attacked well. the pass by ramsey for theos first was gorgeous. his goal was lovely and girouds was great too.
attacking wise, this team looks good. the players are linking better, making better runs. podolski as a striker doesnt work. hes too static, whereas with giroud up front, there was a lot more movement, creating space for others. Theo, Ox, Ramsey all had great games today and so did Koscienly,
we played what i imagine to be the starting team against villa, maybe rosicky in for Jack. Citys starting eleven was close to their best too i think, although they didnt play aguero. i think there is a lot we can take from this game, the current players are good, they just need that extra quality brought in like suarez to really push on. we need spaces filled on the bench too rather then youngsters. signing someone like gustavo does that, if he starts we can have ramsey/jack/arteta on the bench, and if he doesnt, hes on the bench. thats a much better option to have then we do currently. we played city and beat them one week before the season. thats a good sign. need to up the level v villa as usual but this team, with added quality have the makings of a trophy winning side. I cant wait for the new season, as usual i think we will win something this year. Either way, its going to be a long and bumpy ride but real football is back in a week, im going to be at the Emirates and i cant fucking wait.

well he knows we dont have a big enough squad and has admitted it. suggests he will sign players"I think what is important is the strength of the squad. Today is one game. We want to play 55 games and we are maybe a bit thin squad-wise to go through a whole season"
Credit where its due, was a decent performance today. Ramsey, Theo and the back four were all superb. Ox and Weelshere looked sharper, and Giroud is looking good. Perez only played 20 minutes so too early to judge, but I loved his cynical hacking of one of their players.. we don't see that enough! Only player I was dissapointed with was Podolski, needs to get more involved.
As said by others though, we don't have a good squad. We have a good 15-16 players. That's not really the same thing. I hope this result doesn't blind Wenger to deficiencies of the squad.
