I'm not after trophies, just to feel like we belong to the club again. They're the one's distancing themselves from me, not the other way around.

    This pretty much sums it up for me as well. I lost faith with Wenger quite a few years ago but after the FA cups I renewed a little bit of hope he might just be able to change his ways and prove the doubters wrong. But this season has absolutely proved in my mind Wenger must go, and until he does we wont be challenging again. Furthermore I have never felt more disenchanted with the club, and those in charge of it. For the first time supporting Arsenal I will be going into next season not caring. I have no intention of going to any live matches, wont be going out of way to watch us play on TV. I will still follow results, but the emotional investment just wont be there.

    It's actually not about how we're doing. Well, it is partly about that - if we were winning titles I think we could tolerate the rest more easily.
    But it's mostly about the disdain the club have for the fans these days. We have simply become customers to them, yes they'll woo us when they want our money but that's about it.
    And all so they can pay Walcott £140k a week to pull out of challenges like he did yesterday.
    It's not just us, it's the way sport has gone generally, but we are the poster club for it.

    At the time they were massive cunts. In hindsight, they did well for themselves.

    I blame the club more than RVP in that situation. He’s been an absolute prick since leaving but I can’t understand why the club sold to Man Utd. We weren’t desperate for money and they must have known we were about to be flush with cash from the new sponsorship deals which we announced the very next Summer. It just seemed like a feeble attempt to keep him. We were hinting all through his last season that we couldn’t afford the wages. I don’t see why we couldn’t keep him for the last year of his contract and return to the negotiation table once we had the new sponsorship deals signed up. They must have known well in advanced that we were about to come into new money?

    Joint responsibility, Van Persie for being willing to go to United (from what i can gather he insisted on going there) and us for selling him to them when we could have bit the bullet and lost him for nothing....which says a lot about Wenger having too much respect for his overpaid darlings.

    Although I will say in Wenger's defence he has learnt somewhat from that horrendous misdeed, in the case of Vermaelen and Debuchy who were wanted by United we made sure they didn't go to United.

    Although he perhaps should have allowed Vermaelen to go to United to eat up there wage bill for a player that never plays.

    Meh either way, we sold a player who if he was a car would have failed it's MOT for 15million....actually good piece of business. Of course we failed to do the other thing right and sign a defender afterwards (until January anyway).

    We won't keep either of them, I get the impression Ozil is in the early stages of trying to engineer his way out of the club, the body language especially towards Giroud yesterday (who blames him!) was a sight for sore eyes.

    Ozil has been very vocal lately in the media regarding the teams performances, he's right about what he has been saying too.

    If the club can make a profit on Ozil then he'll be sold, we know how Wenger operates when it comes to an unhappy player, he won't change.

    Sanchez for me is a slightly different case, he's not as vocal but I think he'll go too...he won't stick around waiting, he's no need to, reaching the peak years of his career and he's use to winning.

    I think they'll hang around another year IF (and I cannot stress how big an if that is) we do the right things in the transfer market this summer.
    Sign a couple of big players and they'll probably hang around for one more season at least.

    So they will leave then?

    Wenger won't do what everyone has been telling him to do, I'm not being negative or a pessimist, it's how Wenger operates. I'm not saying he won't sign anyone, he probably will, but a summer of signing Elnenys and Sanogos won't keep Ozil and Sanchez here.

    We're talking about a man here who didn't sign a single OUTFIELD player last summer because he couldn't find anyone better than what we currently have?!!!
