Comments on: Isn’t it just plain stupid only to sign one player this transfer window?

Bingo, you are absolutely right!

Once again, Wenger sells more than he buys. That’s two seasons in a row. All this talk about Eduardo and Rosicky being like new purchases is bollox. The chances of those two staying injury free for most of the season is low.

Every non Arsenal fan I talk to says Wenger is an idiot cuz we could seriously win trophies if we only had a couple more top players. But Wenger prefers to constantly leave the squad just that little bit short of what it needs in terms of experience and quality to get us over the final hurdle and see us through the tough patches. An arrogant eccentric French idiot.

Wenger screwed up – we needed at least three players to replace the 8 world class we lost since 2006. Henry still hasn’t been replaced. Diarra is playing in the best team in the world right now!!!. Arsene has lost the plot in the transfer market. I think we’ll give a good showing in the league {2nd maybe). But for the Champs league – the likes of JUVE, BARCA & INTER are too strong for us. three players he should’ve signed LUISAO, TOULALAN, CHAMAKH

If you read Wenger’s in-depth interview in Daily Mail earlier in Aug, you will realise that Wenger’s focus is on developing youth and not letting their development getting hindered by new signings or old legs. He cites an example that when Fabregas was knocking on the door for regular first team football, he let Viera go as he couldn’t ensure both of them to find a starting line-up.

Now i don’t necessarily agree with this philosophy in its completeness. I would’ve preferred a mix of young upcoming talent with some seasoned, battle-hardened players. If we stick with the current youths for 2-3 years, we may have an excellent team challenging for all titles, but what is the guarantee that they would stay? Wenger developed Flamini, Hleb and Greedybayor, and they basically left for more money. What is the guarantee that Fab, Song, Wally, Ramsey et al stay with us once they are established players and the sugar daddy clubs come with their offers of £150k a week? If that happens, these trophyless seasons of youth development would go to the drains and we’ll need to start from scratch, and Wenger would have only himself to blame for these barren trophyless years.

I totally agree with you, because it’s like the last year arsene keep telling us that he believe in the squad and we gain nothing, i think sometimes the squad need only for one or two players to be perfect and he does nothing and at the end of the season he keep telling us that we improved and need and we reach the semi final of all cups i think it’s bullshit he doesn’t sign elshmach because the price is high by two mill he doesn’t thinking about the money he will bring if we win the league or the champions 2 mill is nothing compared to it.and finally i think we need for a striker and midfielder and cb and less priority a goal keeper and i think Gignac is better than elshmach because he is gona ad more power which we lack and for cb hangland is good choice

Please, arsenal fans , just start crying because, with no signings we are no where near trophies.

But, wenger should also know the trust fans has put in him.Secondly, he should know that, this time if we dont take any troph, he like to face abacklash.
Because, enough is enough. We have been patient enough.
I myself i trust wenger, it seems he doesnt care about the fans.
Therefore he must be ready. May be he is planning to leave the team, that, why he doesnt care.

Good day crying fans.
