    Nah, he reached his ceiling here.
    NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.

    He almost...almost twigged two-three years ago that Sanchez, Walcott and Welbeck could operate as an interchangeable front three which would bamboozle defences. But then he had to start Giroud....a guy that has never seemed to understand that you either need to buy players to complement the system you want to play or create a system to complement the players you have.

    The aforementioned interchangeable front three (which is pretty much what Liverpool use) would suit Aubemeyang to a tee

    Nah. He'd fail to track back and just hang around the other end of the pitch because he's hungry for goals. It might work under a different manager but here he'd be tactically and positionally neglectful on the wing to the detriment of the team.

    He's a beast and should be played in his natural position. Let's not ruin his career like we've ruined countless others.

    Criminal and stupid. His goal record exploded when playing as a striker. If there were any of chance of signing him, we either have to switch to a 3-5-2 or Lacazette has to make way.

    But it's all bullshit. We're not signing this guy. Not in a million years.

    Whilst Wenger is here not particularly interested who comes here. We aren’t good enough for top four, and no matter how bad we get we won’t finish below mid table.

    Different coach....Aubemeyang would be perfect fit.

    Just think he’s wasted so much time here and could potentially have been so much better than he is right now.
    Injuries have really stunted him. Wenger has too. He scored 19 goals last season but can't get a chance in the first team. That's more goals than Giroud, Welbeck and Iwobi but he still can't get a game.

    He should leave and he'd be a fool to stay. He's wasted enough time and someone should have had a word with him 4 years ago. Ox got the message a lot earlier. The manager has lost his ability to develop good players.

    We don't play Giroud anymore. We have Lacazette, Ozil and Sanchez as the front three but it doesn't work because we've lost that extra man from the midfield. Buying a player that can score 40 goals in a season but then choosing to play him on the wing is just stupid. I could understand if we had a functioning attack and spoiled for choice but that's not the case.

    Wenger does "just stupid" better than anyone, and he loves teaching strikers how to be wingers because it once worked with self-starter/ self-learning Henry.

    The funny thing about that whole Henry winger story is that Wenger didn't even develop Henry as a winger at Monaco. Henry was a striker at Monaco at youth level, Wenger gave Henry his debut on the wing at Monaco but was sacked a few weeks later. The new manager continued to play Henry as a winger and Henry went on to win the league title with Monaco as a winger and best young French player long after Wenger fucked off from France.
