Random Arsenal Shit (When it's not worth starting a thread)

So should he be operating from a deeper position where he can have more influence on a game? We've seen all season how badly we've missed Cazorla in that deep role.

It seems like a silly debate, but I've heard Wenger, Henry, Hoddle, Lowe and even Ozil himself admit that he needs to score more goals. This is in light of the PFA and Team of the Year snubs. Also, the debate pops up because we keep hearing Ozil won't sign a new deal. No doubt he's an intelligent footballer but I wish he had more of a stomach to lead the team and not be as passive. You say he's more than a playmaker and I'd argue that too, hence the argument.

He's snubbed because he plays for the biggest bunch of bottlers in the league, managed by the most unambitious manager in the league. If we'd have finished top this year, and if not this year then when, Ozil would have picked up all the awards. Awards go to winners. Ozil was better than Mahrez this year but he didn't play in a better, winning team.

Since October 2011 in the EPL Arsenal have been behind at half time 32 times

They've
Won 1
Drew 11
Lost 20

Mental strength & Leadership

Not good stats. But then again, only being behind at half time on 32 occasions since 2011 is not too bad. Swings and mini roundabouts.

One of the continuing reasons why many fans complained is we have had plenty of money that could have need used to make us competitive ...

...but alas we held cash, held cash, put up prices to fans, and then spent when too late but only ever just enough. ....

Hoarding cash had benefited one shareholder only, but has not benighted the club or the squad. Cash numbers stark...

May 2015 £228 million

Looking at those numbers can any argument be made that the club used its resources to the best of its ability?



More figures on his page. May 13-15, money went up by £70m!

What do Leicester City, Tottenham, Everton, Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea, West Ham and Southampton all have in common?

All have scored more goals at home in the premier league than us

Our record for goals scored at home is currently joint 9th

As long as Wenger stays I think losing both players is inevitable. It's a double edged sword. I can't see them signing a new deal whilst he only has a year left on his contract but also can't see them wanting to stay if we continue to blunder our way through a season. I'm pretty sure when they start pulling the old 'show me your sporting ambition' speech, Wenger will get defensive and shop them around. #WengerOut.

A new manager is essential and even if we lost all of our top players but brought in a serious manager that knows what he's doing, I'd have more confidence in the team getting back in shape. I just think of it as a fresh start and a new manager working with a blank canvas creating the team he wants without having to squeeze anyone in from the old regime.

Arsenal's longest winning run of the season will stand at 4 games (October). The worst of any season under Wenger.

The depressing thing is that if we avoid defeat at Norwich it will be our longest unbeaten run of the season.

All competitions presumably (though not even sure that was right), it was five in the league. I'm all for calling Wenger out on a shocking season but it needs to be accurate tbf.

I'm all for building a giant wicker man statue of Wenger and burning him
Alive in it due to a shocking season but it needs to be an accurate representation tbf.

I can see why South Yorkshire police did what they did, doctoring people's statements is fun
