In reply to Obidube. Wenger and the Arsenal FC board are taking the passion of the Fans for a ride. They deserve to be stoned. Some fans have developed Hypertension bcos of their attitude. They are only busy and happy making money for themselves without caring about the Fans feelings. Giroud is the worst striker inthe EPL. The goals he scores can equally be scored by a ten year old player. His laziness is killing frustrating Ozils effort. He should just leave the team. Mertserker is sluggish. Sagna lacks basic footballl skills, Arteta is finished, Fabianski is only good for the Championship side, Wilshere can never get better than he is now. Arsene Wenger is finished, his style is not dynamic. For anything good to come Arsenal FC's way, all the players cum coach mentioned above have to go. The board have to cange their attitude on spending on players. If Arsenal FC management interest is selling player we should be told so that we can make a decision on our support pattern.

The problem is no players purchased in transfer window knowing full well our team has been picking up cruicial injuries for the last few seasons. When Walcott was injured Wenger stated how we have Bendter coming back WTF!!! We have a strong starting team (that’s with every one fit but we need 2 more defenders,a strong CM and 2 players who can play up front. Purchase these players and we will be successful

To say the fact is among the greatest club in the world and among the richest but the problem is the spendability, Wenger is the one that always discovered best players but to pay for there service is always difficult, please I have one question for Mr Wenger what is he going to do with Arsenal’s money?

I wonder why Mr. Wenger will not start Sonogo in the first half, then, bring in Oliver Giroud in the second half. By then, Sonogo might have worked-up the opponent defense with his runs, so that when Giroud comes in, he might be able to find his way through goal easier than when he always starts in the first half.

Giroud is the biggest curse to arsenal this season. Gone are the days when defenders are terified because of strikers, rather they seem glad to play against giroud because he is the weakest 1st team striker in arsenal since wenger era. i just dont know what he can do.If he doesnt have the pace but atleast be a good finisher like vaniseroy or a bully like ade or heskey. I cant remember a regular 1st team striker who played most matches in recent arsenal in a season without injuries and didnt scoreup to 18 epl goals or betterstil didnt score against man united or anyone of the big four.
Moreso wenger approach to game is pathetic recently. He doesnt change methods, always prearrange substitution and keeps fiielding nonperforming players. Pls wenger try to forget bout bentners off fields and give him some playing time because i know he is better than that french deadwood we have as a striker. And if you wont then take a bow and leave arsenal with some of your french contingent

Thankfully I lost faith in AW five, yes, I repeat, five (5) seasons ago! I was critical of him and his unfortunate tactics. He is the one Manager who believes no one is indispensable. We, I’ll tell you folks, some players are indispensable to their teams. The saying: “one tree can not a forest make” is only true for trees and forests! Problem with Arsenal is the player-attrition which Wenger haas pursued with clinical aplomb since he orchestrated the sales of the best legs in the game to purchase weaklings and clueless opportunists. What kind of serious minded manager would sell off the likes of Ashley Cole, Clichy, Nasri, and the father of all senseless and moronic deals, Robin Van Persie! That one deal is the one that ought to have sent Aaw on his way out of Areenal! And don’t forget the cynical parceling off of Alex Song to Varcelona! How else would weak kneed Giroud have found his way to Arsenal if all that hadn’t happened? And then, window after window opened and closed and AW refused to bring any quality to the team. It’s as if the fans didn’t matter so long as he and the board made money. Then how do you justify spending £42 million on Ozil and were only able to offer £ 40 million for the extremely talented, strong as an Ox, resourceful and indomitable Suarez? AW’s forte is to bring the likes of Silvestre to the emirates and Campbell back to the team after they’ve been used up, are tired and spent! He relishes these feats of genius. It’s why we now have Flamini back after he’s been retired by his club. And weak and tired Arteta whom Everton had used wrung and squeezed of every useful essence aeons previous! That’s what Wenger relishes in. He’s oftentimes planless and rushes into the most absurd last minute deals seconds from (whatever) the window (that was still open) closing! So, yes it’s of course Gueoud who can’t run can’t dribble, can’t shoot, can’t hold the ball for more than a nano second and sticks out his tongue (is he related to Miley Cyrus?) about e a hundred times a game after making some ridiculous blunders or after fouling himself! That’s what Wenger posts up there as a lone striker! Little wonder Mourinho called dear Wenger a specialist in failure. Weeks after that famous quote AW took his hapless lads to Stamford Beidge and smart and effective tutor Mourinho hammered the Failures to drive the point home!

Its very disappointing to arsenal fans – Wenger doesn’t know what he is doing, there are so many players better than Giroud -in fact OG has no football brain so as Mr. Specialist in failures.

All these comments are valid and really try to define what Arsenal and Wenger are. I don’t know what is wrong with Wenger. even during the game when he should make important l technical decisions he wont react, he always wishes things will change through God’s grace. He favors Giroud even when it is apparent he is contributing nothing to the team. I remember writing here in January, prying him to sign Berbatov or Dafoe, they would have made a difference today. He should not be crying of a proper defensive midfielder; Vermaleen should have been used in that position quite often because he is quick and strong and to date; he would have match fitness and would never wan away. Arsenal left flank from defense to attack is the weakest link and all teams know of that. Look at every time we concede goals, they mainly come from that side, this is because there is no established left winger who is defensively minded. i wish Santos was around to be used in front of Gibbs/Monreal. Our fullbacks too need to be patient as games progress, they are too rushy upfront. The same problem of offering support upfront makes non- striker players look bad in a game the way it happened with Alex Song and fans thought he lacked defensive discipline; he just wanted to make things work out just the same way Gibbs/Sagna are trying to win us matches. Giroud should Go for good. to help Arsenal; Bring back Campbell from loan spell, a conventional left winger, a genuine striker who is physically strong, one like mendzuik or any and please let Roberto Martinez manage Arsenal. He is the most technical manager i have ever seen since his days at Wigan with the likes of victor Moses et al. He will be poached by Barcelona one day when we are still wishing … the Arsenal way.
