Then he would have shipped out a lot more players blaming us the fans. In my mind and many others, though while there was pressure from the fans as such, it was the players fault for not being strong enough to deal with itOriginally Posted by Power_n_Glory
Last night , with all those stories of a big signing, fuck all was happening:

For those asking there wasn't a medical at Arsenal last night.
New season is tomorrow
It's not twisting his words, he says Gervinho lacked confidence at the Emirates (not in general), this is a thinly veiled dig at the support for sure otherwise he would have just said he lacked confidence and needed a new challenge.
Like who, most of the others didn't play so he could hardly blame the fans for those? He's got previous with this with the Adebayor transfer, it's nothing new here.
He probably doesn't like the reaction of some of the fans to the fact he's not delivering and so wants to have a little subtle dig...nothing too obvious mind.
It always seems to be someone else's fault, transfers, performances, players underperforming, he shifts the blame away from himself and his precious players.
Still think Wenger is doing the right thing by getting in quality over just quantity as we did before which didnt pay off.
Im confident he will bring in the right type of player to improve the team before the end of August.
It’s not as if Wenger hasn’t said similar things in the past. The Emirates is hostile, there is no denying it, but Wenger needs to stop deflecting the attention away. He could have said many other things without mentioning the Emirates. Stuff like that doesn’t help. Ramsey came back to form because he kept on getting games despite having continuous poor performances.
He's not getting quality over quantity, he's getting neither. As we've seen in the past his idea of quality is not exactly what other people's idea of quality is...these end of window bargain bucket buys aren't going to help us at all in any way other than numbers and I certainly don't trust him to bring in the right players, he's got it wrong too often.
We get lumbered with his "quality" players for years most of the time as noone wants them when we eventually realise they're not up to scratch.
Who the fuck thought paying Bendntner 52k to match his shirt number was clever ?
At the end of the day, I'm not buying into the excuse that Wenger had no money to spend over the last near decade. He did. He wasted it on shit players, obscene amounts on wages, and not strengthening the team each season and allowing it to get in such a state where so much investment is now needed. Wenger out.
Good players can move at the end of the window, RVP, Robinho, Berbatov, Arteta, Nasri, etc.
I still think he'll get the players in we need, those who have gone won't really be missed.
Pretty much, all of those who have gone, we have been crying out for them to leave (Bendtner is a parasite though, he just won't go).
The problem is, we're severely lacking in squad depth, and in such instances, I'd rather those that we've shipped out remain with us, I'd rather field Gervinho than a reserve player from the bench. Wenger likes comparing our transfer dealings to Chelski / United, but they have a squad which is much stronger.
