Arsene doesn't change the game.

Premier League Arsenal
comment on the article

Doesn't he? well, he fooled me. I'm afraid some of you Arsenal 'fans' will have to wait until at least Wednesday before you can bemoan our lacklustre team and the fact that we don't even beat clubs outside the top 4.

Shame.

Why should we rue the loss of Pires when Nasri's scoring goals?

you are right clockendandy i don't know when we will any trophy?
may be wenger should go now its time for him or buy players who are playing in the PL they will need no time to adapt ,we will get immediate results we need some experience lads in our side and or else we will never get any trophy for years to come.One funny thing is that when chelsea bought Petr cech wenger said 'oh i wanted to sign him but he would have problems to get a work permit ' another missed opportunity ,invest big man like Alex where is all that money going after all in the treatment room?

Whatever one says, I don't think that Arsenal play modern football - pretty to watch as it may be. The last time Arsenal played modern footie was when Prtit and Viera played. Arsenal were then 'ahead of the cure' as it were. Now Arsenal is 'behind the curve'. Modern footie requires players who defend their piece of the tuft like their lives depend on it, players who can pass and move when they need to, who win balls and make the quick movement. This requires a certain type of player. Marcos Sena, or Essien for example (hate to admit it!). Playing tight 5-a-side indoor football outdoors may look good but just for entertainment. In real life that type of footie folds like a book under pressure..

hope you are right mate.Pires was a creative maestro a natural footballer as arsene described him and he could score goals on rebounds or others missed ,he was always there to put it in last goal against totenham showed it and he replaced Riquelme at Villareal he is the team leader there you cannot afford to lose a player like that .

Wenger's team selection has been poor!

Our squad is missing one player (a ball winning CM, everone knows that)
I'm very dubious about some of the players that have been making our first eleven of late

Song is an absolute disgrace and never a first team player especially for arsenal!

Denilsons not up to it, (the reason that fabregas will have a mediocre season, and why he will leaving in the summer)

Eboues good cover for full back but not a first team player

And most people will disagree but Van Persie is the most over-rated player in the league

We've got Ramsay (who had a blinder mid-week), vela (looks class), wilshere and randall who both look promising! Bentner, Rosicky and Eduardo to come back

Sorry, but Song is a class young player who has quickly developed in these last 2 years.

unbelievablejef - you say Song is a disgrace and then go on to say we've got Bendtner! Nicklas Bendtner or some other Bendtner we have yet to see? Amazing..
