Re: THE WENGER THREAD

Surely there are far more people who went early on the Wenger out? What about the start of his first full season 97/98: Out of the UEFA Cup (when it meant something) to PAOK Salonika at home - in a misinterpretation of tactics and misunderstanding of how to defend a European home tie with 'Away Goal...

Re: THE WENGER THREAD

Out of interest. .. has anybody used their membership to log in to the Arsenal Player on the website and watch the youth team get knocked out of the FA Youth Cup at home to Crewe. It's a worse performance than last night (if that's possible). Pay particular attention to the Number 5. The future is p...

Re: Press conference cancelled tomorrow

Something that also seems very strange... Arsenal U21's v West Ham U21's was switched at VERY late notice from a public attended match at Boreham Wood (7.30pm tonight) - to 2pm London Colney (closed doors). The switch occurred on Saturday afternoon at about 4pm. It's not unusual for these games to e...

Re: Aaron Ramsey - statistics and form etc.

Only fair that I recap/update the stats that I posted about 18 months ago: WIN % WITH RAMSEY IN THE STARTING LINE UP: Up to 52% from 42% WIN % WITHOUT RAMSEY IN THE STARTING LINE UP: Down from 61% to 58% He's surprised lots of us, but even if you've been ultra-critical on here, if you are a true Goo...

Re: WENGER - Views For and Against.

Just to add to my point - the first 8 fixtures of our season were ones that we won every single one of last season.

Re: WENGER - Views For and Against.

For those getting carried away - and I've seen it here, on Twitter and from non-Gooners in the media - just look at the following. Last season - 2012/13 Aston Villa (H) W 2-1 Fulham (A) W 1-0 Tottenham (H) W 5-2 Sunderland (A) W 1-0 Stoke City (H) W 1-0 Swansea (A) W 2-0 P6 W6 D0 L0 F12 A3 *POINTS= ...

Re: Bradford match thread

Has anyone mentioned that Bradford were not at their strongest last night? Couple of first choice defenders out and one of their better strikers. It's totally unforgivable!!! A selection of teams that have won (in 90 minutes!!!) at Valley Parade in the last 18 months: Port Vale Exeter City Crawley T...

It was a comment on the Next Gen team not Wenger, although I did mention him... Apologies

Future Not Looking Too Bright

Another Wenger myth is that he is somehow GOOD with young players? I'd love to see the evidence... This new Next Gen series team which is up against the best in Europe in a Champions League format: lost 1-0 to Marseille yesterday and haven't scored in their last THREE games, over 280 mins since thei...

Re: Arsene Wenger Points of View.

We need 4 points from our next two games to avoid our worst TEN GAME points total since 1994!

Aaron Ramsey stats

The Racing Post football betting pages include a Monday column reflecting on the weekend matches. They've brought the following Aaron Ramsey stats up in the column today, I was fully aware his win % when starting was bad, but not this bad. Since coming back from his injury Arsenal have won just 28% ...

Re: Gervinho

I saw him outside my house on Sunday morning smiling away as he loaded up his Audi Q7 with bags from ICELAND (yes seriously). Ironic that he shops in the bargain basement too.

He was smiling away to himself even after that performance at Carrow Road hours earlier, who wouldn't on that cash. OUR cash!

Re: Arsene Wenger points of view

Does anybody want to offer an answer to the following (theoretical) question which was the subject of heavy debate amongst some friends and fellow Gooners on Saturday: If all 20 current managers in the Barclays Premier League were given a squad of 22 League One players picked at random on July 1st -...
