I see Aaron has already got bored of his blond era

[GiRTh]

Great player Walcott. Always rated him

[Shaun]

LOL

Another season it is. Let's hope Danny recovers quickly I guess.

[GiRTh]

Typical. Now our only centre back looks like he's got a bad injury.

[GiRTh]

Gabriel looks like knee ligaments so may be out for a while. Trying not to be cruel but he got completely lost for City's 2nd goal so maybe this is what was needed for Wenger to see we need another centre back.

[Drew.]

Gabriel will be out for ages, it's inevitable. Holding and Chambers starting against Liverpool it is then

Gabriel: Arsenal defender out for up to eight weeks with ankle injury

Thank God its not knee ligaments and he's out for a year.

Jose Mourinho takes swipe at Arsene Wenger and Jurgen Klopp - 'Arsenal and Liverpool not big enough to sign a Paul Pogba'

I must be one of the only Arsenal fans who likes Jose and I totally agree with him here. A few fans from ArsenalFAnTV tried to calculate how much Arsenal have to spend on transfers and they reckon Arsenal must have had at least 90 million this summer. Arsenal have the money to make their own big signings so why the manager doesn't is a mystery to all IMO he's a bit of a k**nt to make comments on big signings made by other clubs. I hope to GOD this is his last season. I really am getting sick of Wenger.

Wenger and Klopp's comments are stupid. Both would sell their grandma to bring Pogba to their club, but they either can't afford him or he wouldn't be interested. Just comes across as bitter.

Klopp possibly doesn't have the money to buy a 60+ million pound player but Wenger definitely does have that kind of money. So why the hell he doesnt make his own big signings is the mystery.

[Drew.]

Yeah, we could afford pretty much any player we wanted, the moneys definitely there and theres proof of it which is the most frustrating thing.

Arsene just straight up won't spend it, he always says to treat the money like it's his own and i do kind of admire the way he does that and the way he keeps the club in a strong financial position because not many other managers would, but he's done a good job at that and now the moneys there to be spent which he refuses to do, thats the part that pisses me off.

I've been harsh on him in the past and the guy is one of the most frustrating humans on this earth but i'm gonna miss him if this ends up being his final season which is likely

[GiRTh]

Agree Drew. I think the Pogba signing is pushing me very much into the 'Wenger out' team. All we ever hear from him is how difficult it is to get even 10 to 15 million pound deals done yet Man U have managed to get a whopping 89 million pound deal done. Imagine the details and intricacies of such a deal yet our team could not even get a 10 million pound bid for Wassim Ben Yedder over the line. Frustrating is too mild a word; I'm ******ing pissed off with the manager.

Also, Wenger needs to watch it. It has been noted and discussed by Arsenal fans that our players did well in Euros while playing under different managers in slightly different systems. Ramsey being the main one. I'd argue he was the Premierships best player in the Euros -better than Payet - playing as a number ten a position he rarely plays for Arsenal. I'd argue he was better than OZil in that position and Ozil undoubtedly has better players around him in the Germany team. Having said that watch Wenger play him as a winger or holding mid. Crazy

Giroud is another. I'm no Giroud fan and I dont think he played all that well during the Euros but he linked up brilliantly with Griessmann. Does Giroud need a partner? Should Wenger play with two strikers? Its something to try but I'm pretty much certain Giroud aint getting a partner and Wenger aint playing with two strikers. Also look at the goals he scored. One where he 'outpaced' the Icelandic defender but the other two were both high balls into the box for the big man to get on the end of. Not balls whipped in at pace but high kind of hopeful balls where he out jumped everyone and scored. No one on the planet can tell me that is how Arsene Wenger wants to play football.

So in a few months time when both these very players are faltering, we need to ask is the problem with them or with the manager, given how well they both did in the Euros.

[GiRTh]

The comeback probably gave Wenger too many positives when in reality there werent many. Good goals from Walcott and OX but the other a clear Liverpool mistake. Not sure if 4-2 is as big an embarrasment for Wenger to go into the transfer market. Leicester away next week, they need a win as much as us. Its already a big game for us.

Preach it DT.

Agree with what he says about Rob Holding at about 5 minutes in. If Holding starts looking shaky its not his fault. The manager cant just drop him straight into games like this against teams like Liverpool. He needs time to get used to the premiership.

ArsenalFanTV is gonna be brilliant tonight.

Too old at 31. Wenger likes teenagers so he can sell them when they're 21 - 23.

Dont forget, Zlatan was offered to us on a free but Wenger didnt want him. Can anyone work that out?

Doubt he would have joined you anyway. He was hell bent on playing for Mourinho. No excuse on Williams though. You need that leadership.

We'd have got him if we'd have offered high wages but as soon as it was announced many fans knew it was never gonna happen. He's too experienced, too knowledgable, too outspoken for Wenger. Zlatan know more about winning at the highest level than Wenger and that alone was enough to know the deal was never gonna happen.

Wenger: A coward who throws players under the bus

Damning article on Wenger and his stupid comments in the presser after the Liverpool game. Agree with the sentiment but its a bit strong even for me.

[empire]

the reason why arsenal have not played right in the last few years is that there is a lack of english born players in the EPL, wenger could buy a player at 100 million who is italian but what does this player lack, english league experience, other teams have brought in players and spent over 80 million, but there big mistake is they bought players who played in leagues that are not on the same tough level as the EPL, you could get rid of wenger, but you need players who can play in this tough league, arsenal are just throwing good money down the drain, for players who can't play in are league.

Its official. We're ******ed.

Strange to see John Cross tear into Wenger, he is usually very supportive of Arsene but even he is questioning Wengers attitude in the transfer market. Some of the stuff said about Wenger in this vid is quite well know ie that he dither, he hates the transfer window and he's always looking for the best deal. Everyone looks like they're wise to how he operates so now when he comes in with his too low p*ss taking bid the clubs simply up the price showing they have no respect for Wengers one man crusade against inflated prices. Its clear to see why Arsenal struggle to make transfers and once again it can be traced back to Arsene Wengers stubbornness.
