Now for the important part. we have the necessary talent, according do wenger. he's right, but i think he has forgotten the fact that players (our players especially because of the type of flowing football we play)do get injured and our subs arent exactly quality. however, the fact of the matter is that football is a business and wenger's strategy is to recover all our money, while keeping us the champions league. he's doing that pretty well right now but he's frustrating the fans. however, if cesc stays fit and rosicky and eduardo dont have any more problems, i truly believe we are one of the candidates for premier league glory, so GO ARSENAL!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485828876714765854.post-69446054099970208382008-09-03T16:25:00.000-04:002008-09-03T16:25:00.000-04:00Death, Doom, Destruction!

I know that all of you are invested in this game and in this team as much as I am but lets just see what happens before we start calling for heads to start rolling. Saturday was beautiful, even though Newcastle sucks, and I think there is more to come from this team than most people think.

Berbatov doing a Teddy Mingerash on our sad deluded marsh dwelling neighbours... and Robinho doing a mercenary on the Chavski Globetrotters and joining Chav Citeeeeeh instead for loads more filthy lucre (now isn¿t that ironic plastic Chavski fans?). And was I really that upset? And are we really in such a terrible position as a lot of our moaning supporters think? Just ask yourself if you¿re in this for the long haul of supporting a real live breathing club or following a fad like the Chavs or ManUre and all the bandwagon hopping scousers (aged 30-50) who latched onto the Liverpool Stealers?? Because I wouldn¿t swap places with the finances of any other club in the Premier League (just remember our monies for the stadium are owed for legitimate reasons under a business plan) And I certainly wouldn¿t want an egotistical sugar daddy surrounded with sycophants running my club as his toy and I¿m absolutely 100% certain I wouldn¿t want any other manager than Arsene Wenger in charge. I¿m definitely not going to be envious when the next club sells its soul and goes on an unethical spending spree but I do reserve the right to p*ss myself laughing when Michael Platini gets his way and all the clubs built on shifting sands collapse. Ok we didn¿t buy the player we all think we need... but the most important person at the club disagreed with us all... And I for one am happy to have jam tomorrow.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485828876714765854.post-90591351756602218952008-09-03T10:19:00.000-04:002008-09-03T10:19:00.000-04:00Bischoff IS the answer.

Appiah's coming in on a free? That's the word from goonertalk. <BR/><BR/>But don't worry. We're not going to win the league, and there'll be plenty of Fulham-esque performances, but we won't drop out of the Top 4. <BR/><BR/>How do I know?

So who would we have actually gone and bought? There was, er, um, er? Oh yes - Xavi Alonso, so good that he is an occasional starter at Liverpool and realistically nowhere near the top of any gooner list - until the rumours started. Michel Arteta? Some Swiss bloke? Does anyone think that the Robinho move to 'Citeh' is anything other than mercanary balls?. Fact is, none of us can name anyone available to sign who would definitely have made us a better squad. If the boss thinks that we have enough talent, then we have enough talent. He hasn't exactly made many mistakes over the years has he? We've got 2 world class full backs, 4 centre halves who are all internationals, the worlds best midfielder, and 5 (when Ed returns) top strikers. Plus a whole load of technically gifted youngsters itching to get a look in. Remember Man U late 1990's "kids"? We've acquired Nasri, Ramsey and Silvestre, don't forget. Hleb was rubbish and Gilberto the worst passer at the club. The only real loss was Flamini, but keep your eye on Denilson..... And remember Reyes? £18m of toss - a typical foreign player who just wasn't robust enough for the premier league or Arsenals high standards - which is exactly why splashing the cash to keep people happy is complete folly. I pay enough for my season ticket without seeing my money wasted on unconvincing signings just to please the fans and the press. Arsene knows what he's doing - the man isn't stupid and neither are the board. So don't get hooked up in this tabloid mentality that because we haven't spent £30m on a couple of 'names' then we are doomed. C'mon you reds!!! Lets show 'em.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485828876714765854.post-10833932586176647162008-09-03T05:17:00.000-04:002008-09-03T05:17:00.000-04:00We have looked a little weak in the first few game...We have looked a little weak in the first few games this season, but that's just it. It's only a few games. I don't rate Eboue, Bendtner or Denilson, but other than that we have a squad capable of competing for trophies. We might not have splashed out 30 million on one player but we paid less than 10 for Eduardo! So I for one still trust Wenger and like the stability of our board.<BR/><BR/>And speaking of Eduardo, look at what happened to him! Football can sometimes slap you in the face without warning. For all we know, City could end up paying Robinho his 92k a week to lay on the physios table for a year! Of course it's exciting signing the big names, but isn't everyone getting ahead of themselves claiming it's a new order in the Prem? There are plenty of clubs who could match the sort of wages City could offer and these sort of mercenaries can go as quickly as they came.<BR/><BR/>Lastly...to anyone who thinks you need a team full of 30m+ superstars nowdays to win anything I say only this: Djimi Traore - Champions League Winner.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485828876714765854.post-60499940842856116552008-09-03T02:28:00.000-04:002008-09-03T02:28:00.000-04:00Our manager is now totally insane.

I'm guessing the guy he wanted was Inler and it just didn't work out. I think we can still do quite well this year...but we would need to get Rosicky back soon...and have the key players (Cesc, RVP, Nasri etc.) stay healthy. And even so...I don't think we can compete with Man U now that they have Berbs...even if he is a massive prick. <BR/><BR/>The thing that really worries me is what happened at Man City yesterday. If they are in fact the new Chelsea...then I'm worried about the future of Arsenal. I think City is going to continue to drive up player prices...because let's face it...if you can go to Man City, Man U or Chelsea...the only reason I can think of to go to City is more money. So if City becomes another super club...does that leave Liverpool and Arsenal fighting for the 4th spot every year? I know I'm really jumping the gun here...cause who knows what's going to happen in Eastlands in the coming years. I don't think Robinho is going to make much of a difference this year. I'm just worried that David Dein is going to be proven right...and to win trophies we're going to need our own super billionaire. I'd much prefer that billionaire not be that fat russian bastard...I'm worried...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485828876714765854.post-6231477405557579832008-09-02T13:22:00.000-04:002008-09-02T13:22:00.000-04:00I think you hit the nail on the head when you ment...I think you hit the nail on the head when you mentioned stubbornness. Wenger sees Utd and Chelsea throwing money everywhere, and clubs like City trying to jump on board with that model, and he views it as cheating. His background in economics probably has a lot to do with that since the Chelsea policy makes pretty much zero economic sense.<BR/><BR/>But Wenger has over corrected in response and left us ridiculously thin. All the top 4 clubs have to have good injury luck to win the title, but we have to have good luck with injures just to finish top 4! If Cesc or RVP goes down, we're fighting to make the UEFA Cup. <BR/><BR/>I think we should have paid whatever it took to get Alonso, even if that meant overpaying just this once. But I'm sure Wenger fears the bad press that he would get from overpaying for ONE player in his career more than he fears the press he will get from leading Arsenal down a path that is almost guaranteed to fail and failing.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16486846785837213956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485828876714765854.post-6889355548158386212008-09-02T13:05:00.000-04:002008-09-02T13:05:00.000-04:00hi i am a born arsenal fan through and through, ar...hi i am a born arsenal fan through and through, arsene is the best manager we have had and i trust everything he does.
