what wrong with Arsenal, arsene wenger??
-
I have been a long terms fans of arsenal since my teenager years. im in my early 30s now.
i have grown up watching boring arsenal with long ball tactics have stable defence marshall by tony adamns, martin keown, lee dixon, nigel winterburn or early than that david oleary, steve bould in central defence.
their work ethics remind me of current chelsea defenders.
what wrong with arsenal this season?? why are arsenal spending even less then like of Tottenham, liverpool, newcastle not to mention man utd or even chelsea?? is this a rebuilding process or simply the fall of a great club.
what kind of player do arsenal need to buy this jan transfer window??
1. agressive ball winner in central midfield or creative midfielder
2. out and out striker.
who??
1. Danny murphy/ Juninho of Lyon
2. iaqunita of udinese as target man.
3. Ferdinand of Westham look like a good young defender resemblances of cousin ferdinand at man utd.
arsenal need such new blood. be in a deeper squad or more tactical option. -
they missed out on owen
-
wenger too stubborn liao... when vieira left, they should've get another battle central midfielder... every team need a battling midfielder to win balls.... cannot only use young blood cos they not complete yet... have to buy the right kind of player to comppliment the young players...

Personally i dun really like both Arsenal and Arsene Wenger that much...
but then again.. their way of playing football is always something to behold..
Alot of ppl have been saying that it is a rebuilding season for the Gunners.. after Vieira left, Gunner fans have been asking why and whom they r going to replaced him with..
I felt that Wenger is doing the correct thing in not splashing out cash for panic buys... Although they are still missing Vieira badly, but at least it would give Fabregas a chance to show his undoubted talents..
Gilberto has shone since Vieira left.. and with Hleb being such a good runner both with or without the ball... Arsenal's midfield still looked pretty neat..
While upfront , once Henry is not playing , the whole strikeforce jus lack the edge and threat.. Bergkamp is a superb player but his strikerate isn't as good as before.. Reyes showed brilliance but jus in flashes...
Van Persie can't score 15 goals a season...
As for why Wenger is spending less than Spurs and Liverpool..
i think the answer would be revealed at the end of the season, when they would finished above the 2 teams mentioned above...
Who Arsenal need this coming January window.. currently the market doesn't have any outstanding players.. as the thread-starter mentioned , Iaquinta is availble.. but Wenger doesn't buy this sort of "big" striker.. it doesn't fit into their way of playing...
at the back.. Senderos , Toure and Campbell are the only available centrebacks... (No .. Cygan isn't considered a centreback.. he is Shite !)
don't think that west ham would let Anton Ferdinand off on the cheap.. maybe a cheaper option would be Zak Knight of Fulham ? -
Biased... Oly use frenchmen... look at his squad... all the uncle french playing. Gd or bad, they still get a slot... Hw To Win?!!

Zat knight?? villa also chasing him and he's a villa fan himself nut i wouldn't want to see him at villa. huth is betterOriginally posted by Jeno:Personally i dun really like both Arsenal and Arsene Wenger that much...

haha.. u r right.. huth is better than Knight...
i was crackin up my head.. trying to think of a better option than Anton Ferdinand..
but then again.. Chelski wouldn't let Huth go to Arsenal..

schalke are in for huth also, would love to se huth at villa. maybe arsenal can go for their old boy upsonOriginally posted by Jeno:haha.. u r right.. huth is better than Knight...

Upson isn't that good.. he seemed to have no composure and often rush things.. jus like Cygan..
Aston Villa has quite a decent squad.. i always loved Patrik Berger.. since his Euro 96 days.. Wilfred Bouma can hit those freekicks too.. Milan Baros is a speed demon... But with Solano off, hopefully Milner can fill his boots..
as for what Blue Garfield mentioned.. yes Arsene has a preference for his fellow countrymen.. and has kicked out some of the better english youngsters.. especially jermaine pennant... -
I'd love pennant to replace solano!! but milner is doing a good job at the moment and there's still bakke.Originally posted by Jeno:Upson isn't that good.. he seemed to have no composure and often rush things.. jus like Cygan..

berger hasn't done that well this season and villa with six pts from seven games is the worst start in their history.

arsene got a policy of no-buy former players so upson is out... tink he will buy some brazilian or cheap unknown...Originally posted by The man who was death:schalke are in for huth also, would love to se huth at villa. maybe arsenal can go for their old boy upson -
I say arsenal get ready for a season with UCL..

Arsene Wenger has always had a shrew eye in the transfer market. Alexender Hleb is an excellent buy in line with Arsenal's thrill of entertaining soccer. His current suggestions that teams that score >3 goals should be awarded an extra point deserves merit.
I'm sure inflated prices have worked against Arsenal this season. Wenger has in the past insisted that they would not pay over the top for a player and will definitely not be held to ransom over player's wages or transfer fees by other clubs and agents. This gives Wenger every opportunity to dig into the youth ranks. Mathieu Flamini and Fabregas are excellent young players, as is Gael Clichy. Philippe Sanderos played well last season but is only coming into form now after horrendous mistakes in the opening games.
Give them some time and they will do well as a team. I would agree, however that they need a genuine replacement for Patrick Viera. Someone aggressive and stylish like Claude Makelele (Chelsea) or a solid, holding player like Mohd Sissisko (Liverpool). -
They are jsut toothless without Patrick Vieira marshalling the midfield. What more could I say?
-
well i certainly think it's too early to let vieira go.. secondly.. whot can i say.. u had wenger as ur manager.. and a poor financial support.. i'm not implying that wengie wosent good.. obviously.. nobody outclasses him in tactical play and player motivation but... he's just alil stingy eh? i mean.. aside than pouring out 13+mil for reyes and hleb.. he seldom fork out more than 7mil to purchase players.. even if he had the money.. well i think he might as well be playing the football manager rather than managing a real team.. and this.. is the consequence for his stingyness.. thou he had weapons in his army.. but they are way too young to be challenged.. sigh.. all u arsen fans gna do is just to wait for fabregas to grow up..
gd lck guys..

They lack the $$ dude..... coz of their new stadium.. it is said that the new stadium has to be full hse every home match till 2016 in order to pay the $$ they spend on it to the bank..

with the supporters they hv in london its no problem... but they should've taken wembley.. more cheap...Originally posted by tarcki:They lack the $$ dude..... coz of their new stadium.. it is said that the new stadium has to be full hse every home match till 2016 in order to pay the $$ they spend on it to the bank.. -
Wembley is jus a white elephant..
Crowds are too far away from the pitch.. lessen the atmosphere.. -
i dun understand why wenger dun want to replace lehmann. there's good goalkeepers around like toldo who's 2nd choice at inter now behind julio cesar. inter's third choice keeper also good, carini uruguay no.1.
sweden's no.1 issakson also highly sought after -
lolx... u play too much CM??
-
No henry and Viera Equal to end of Arsenal
-
sometimes the managers should play some CMOriginally posted by tarcki:lolx... u play too much CM??
I really can't believe no one sign toldo before the window close, he was already second choice at the start of the season -
sometimes the managers should play some CM
hahahaha... CM dun help.. saviola CM so gd but real life average nia.. bv see how toldo perform now.. so no comments... but is he still as gd as last time
I really can't believe no one sign toldo before the window close, he was already second choice at the start of the season -
at least better than lehmann and almunia wenger should play mart poom lah

To me, I feel that Arsenal lack variations to win games. When they cant score playing with their type of football, they lost the plot. Sometimes, u have to play different tactics to beat different teams. Why is Chelsea doing well in the league and Europe, but Arsenal cant? Losing Vieira is a big factor, no more ball winner. Losing Henry is one factor, but not the biggest in terms of attack. To me, Bergkamp not perform is the biggest factor in terms of attack. He is the only player in the team capable of doing the passes like Riquelme of Villareal. And he is the fastest thinking player in the team. He can think steps ahead of many players, just like playing chess. Before the ball goes to him, he already know what to do with it. That's a big factor for not scoring enough goals I feel. The defence? Not doing well. But with no good DM protecting them, even the likes of Milan defence will leak goals.
Just my opinion anyway.
