Once again we have nothing to show for this season.. no silverware.. The board and manager will insisted we were close.. but are we really close.. lets not lie...
This season is the worst of all.. This morning we lost 2-1 to spurs.. this is the team we are expectedd to beat.. not only that they have me invloved in a hard match a few day back.. losing a fa cup semi final. yet we lost. For the last few season, we could saw we played some of the best and beautiful football yet we lost... we could all see that we are far from it.. losing to both chelsea and manu so convincingly. I reckon we might lose another game to man city later on. One can still said maybe they played anti football, kicking us off the field, or spent so much more then us. BUT!!!! Mr wenger and the board, please explain this... We were nowhere near that magical team, BARCELONA.
True they have a player that maybe God made to delight all fottball fans.. But he was a youth player for BARC system. Out youths are good? Our team are young.. How long do we want to use that excuse?

This is part of the squad that beat real madrid (A 250 million team) twice and in style. The average age for that starting eleven was 26.45. What say u, Arsenal board.
Looking at the squad they might need at most a central defender to be the understudy of puyol or his sub Gabriel Milito. Cesc looks to be the one to replaced xavi. With all the silverware money they win.. getting our captain would not be hard. Why do their players never seems to want to leave? Simple the best want to play with the best and beat the rest and win.. Winning mean more money will come it and that more can be spread among the team... SIMPLE LOGIC?

Season confirm over....
barcelona, cesc, Messi, nasir
25 million that we just had to spent
Looking at our season.. one thing remain the same.. nice football at times but in the end we win nothing.
I am just a fan like many others of Arsenal football club.. Some of us have pay one of the highest fee for a season tickets to go watch the games.
I believe that we really need to spend this summer to end our 'impressive' run with winning anything.
I believe we need a central defender.. a top notch 1, a midfielder that offer both defensive and offensive options and a world class forward. but 1st we need to offload players.
We need to let fabianski go, he is just not good enough and we dun have time.he shld fetch us 2million. Next Diaby, we cannot afford to have a player who will do well in 5 matches and shit in the 15 others. He will get us 5 million. Denilson is at best a sub, with the influx of younger players, we shldn't kill them and give them chances (like what wenger said before). 5 more mil. next up we need to offload walcott and Bendnter.. both are just no cutting it. we need to let at least 1 go. shld be able to fetch us 7 mil in the process. Thats a total of 19 million.
Now for the ins, My headline stated 25million and that does not included the 19mil we might earn. We need the following
David Villa - 20 million might be enough since he is expected to leave. even if we have to spend 25mil it would still be worthwhile
Marouane Chamakh - Free. He will replace bendnter as the 3rd choice can provide some option
That way we will have 4 players up front with vela provide cover.. With RVP and Edurado miss half the season regluarly. He will get his chance.
midfielder. Flamini - 5-7 mil. He has not played at all. Likely yo miss the world cup becoz of that he will be looking to move and where better the arsenal. AC milan will be willingly to sells. Happy to earn that amt for a player they sign for free. he can keep Fab happy at least for now. Rasemy and other youngsters can be the cover. against lesser teams we could use Nasri, Rosicky or even Arshavin ther as well in the center.
For the goalkeeper, Joe hart has to be the one. Young with so much experience in the perimer league. City is willing to sell(on loan at the moment) 5-7 million shld be enough.
As for the defender, Gary Cahill can be the one. Man Utd is also interested but with the signing of smalling from fulham. we could get him and cheap too.. Bolten looks to be heading down. 7 million could do it.
total estimated = 41 million
total buget = 25 million + 19 million = 44million (3million left)
If my dream comes true this is how they will shaped up
first 11
Manuel Almunia
Sagna, Gallas, Vermaelen, Clichy/Traore
Flamini , Song ,Cesc Fábregas
Arshavin David Villa Robin Van Persie
With this, we will added steel into center. Against the rest of the big 4 i will like to see them face off with Flamini and Song. Cesc will have so much freedom he can take a notebook out to check the weakness of the other teams. flamini with his attitude will ensure we are not bully into to giving up the match. Players like RVP and Chamakh can dropped a bit back to win headers as well. With the 2 the defenders will be better protected. up front with Villa and a fit RVP. It has to be the more feared front line. With the ability of the 3 three of them they can sway places at anytime, creating problems and goals.
Sub
Nasri (can played in the front 3 or dropped back to play along Cesc)
Rosicky (can replace arshavin or any of the front 3)
Vela(cover for the frontline) /Walcott(last chance)
Marouane Chamakh (cover for the frontline)
Edurado/Ramsey
Gary Cahil
Joe hart (push for the no.1 choice)
NOW WE GOT A TEAM. Wenger are you seeing this
Arsenal and Wenger has loose it
Its Wenger fault and the board of director.. abt 3 season ago.. he shld have demand more money.. now i dun think the board is gg to even spend... we can even afford a Saha? Arsenal fans pay a preium to get to the games.. we fill up the stadium to watch a bunch of could be and might be players.. learning to play.. that rubbish...
he even compare Fabianski to Seaman.. to raise our hope.. laughable now.. Campbell being hungry and still good enough.. I cant see that yesterday... Bendtner.. i got only one thing to said.. he come across as a vey ego player meaning full of himself.. come on lad, if u gg to be that.. start scoring 15-20goals a season 1st.Walcott being young is just excuses what happen to when u are good enough u are old enough.. look at ramsey. Vela looks ok.. but he need to play.. if we are not buying at least give his a few games.
Wenger is trying to played with our hEADS.. Saying David Villa was not available during the transfer window even if he is.. we will never be able to sign him.. Imagine David Villa to Arsenal 7 MILLION pounds.. Dun talk rubbish Mr Wenger. The main reason the board are keeping him coz we keep finishing in the top 4.. with a budget of a bottom half team.. i think even stoke city spend more.. The board is just think of their wallets.
