Thank you Sanago! Since the early 1980's the toot have won very little and nothing during raver61's living memory.

You forgot to mention spurs 3 European trophys Arsenal 1 mind the enormous gap.

Agree1 Disagree1

13 Feb 2018 19:47:38
Oh dear raver61 - Firstly we have won two European competitions. Secondly your last one was 34 years ago, well before you were a twinkle in your milkman's eyes. In fact you were nt even alive when the toot won ia european competition.
How about:
League titles:
Arsenal 13 toot 2
FA Cups:
Arsenal 13 toot 8

Seriously raver61, the last thing a toot fan should do is take on an Arsenal fan on a trophy count. Tell us how many trophies the toot have won during your lifetime?
Ooops Juve just scored!

13 Feb 2018 20:45:39
Oops juventus have scored let's hope we don't become another European embarrassment like the English kings Arsenal who Became the only English club to have double digits past them Las season when Munich put 10 on them lol,

Oh oh whos voing to be our EL striker now?
Can we rely on Welbeck?
Seems not only thin at the back but up front too now.

Lacasette?

Out for six weeks and we know arsenal six weeks.

We sold 3 players in the window, who could have covered and brought one in, who can't play in the cup. Good planning, not.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Feb 2018 15:22:16
It never rains it pours . Welbeck should do just fine and hopefully this is a by round . Iโ€™m not fussed about the pointless cup final. It would be nice for Wenger as itโ€™s the only domestic trophy he hasnโ€™t won but Iโ€™m not bothered about it . Just a fixture pile up competition.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Feb 2018 15:22:58
Oh ok, I guess that's just an unfortunate short term gamble you take when upgrading your striker strength in the January window mate.
Overall we couldn't pass on PEA and retain Olly just because of this season's Europa league, that would have been madness and unfortunately keeping Olly wasn't an option If we wanted Aubameyang so it's simply a case of bad luck Lacasette getting injured which can and does happen to any and every club.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Feb 2018 15:59:34
Gunner, every one new how important the EL cup is to arsenal to sell 3 strikers able to play in that and bring no one in who can play in that, is now for me short sighted. On Lacazettes side, that's bad luck. let's hope it isn't a problem, welbecks injury record isn't great, who is his replacement.

Agree1 Disagree0

13 Feb 2018 15:59:50
Shame Lacazette is injured, but we still have Aubameyang and Welbeck, who actually looks better through the middle than out wide. This typifies the problem with Wenger, who likes signing creative midfield players, but is hesitant where strikers, DM's and defenders are concerned. Even now the transfer speculation is heavy on Max Myer and the Turkish player we let go some time ago, both midfield players. `Lacazette is out for 6 weeks, during which we play 9 matches, possibly more in EL? We should be able to cope with the two striker we have. In addition we have Nketiah who could play. The odd sale was Giroud, as he gave us a different option and selling him to a rival for the top four was odd.

Agree0 Disagree1

13 Feb 2018 16:09:28
Rg auba can't play EL.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Feb 2018 16:12:12
If fit, i'm happy for welbeck but who is his plan b if it isn't going to plan. Its amateurish in the extreme to leave us so bare in an important comp for us.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Feb 2018 16:41:56
Yes Steve, but Welbeck can play and Nketiah can be back up against the Swedes. Hence why we shouldn't have sold Giroud and not to our direct rivals.

Agree0 Disagree1

13 Feb 2018 16:56:21
We had to let both Theo and Olly go Steve, Olly to get Pea and Theo because the offer for a player who after 12 years hadn't won a regular place but was on mega wages was far to good to refuse.
It's unfortunate Pea is ineligible and Lacasette injured but it can't always be all about the right now when an exceptional player becomes both available and in our case is willing to actually join us :-)

Fergie won titles with arguably lesser players Ken but he did have 6 or 7 dependable high performers to rely on.
Fergie had great teams he built over the years but towards the end there were a lot of bit part players like Danny Welbeck (who I like) who Fergie got away with playing simply because of his stature and mentality that ran through the club.
Utd walked the premier league some seasons with some very very ordinary players as well as some very very good ones.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Feb 2018 13:32:38
Agree G62,
United, like Arsenal had big game players who turned up every match.
You could probably name the United team of 10 years ago better than the current team.
Schmeichel, Irwin, Stam, Pallister, Ince, Keane, Becks, Scholesy, Giggs, Cantona and Van Nistelrooy.

I think I would struggle a bit to name the current Man Utd team.

This isn't a dig at Utd, as most people would say the same about Arsenal. Arsenal fan's included.

Also, players played in position.
Giggs was a winger, Stam a Centre Half, Van Nistelrooy was a striker and Keane was a DM.

Nowadays, most players, Arsenal's included, seem to be jack of all trades, but masters of none.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - I think you're stuck in a bit of a time warp there with your Man Utd team, Dags. Schmeichel left Utd in '99, Irwin in '02, Stam in '01, Pallister in '98...... Paul Ince left in 1995!}

13 Feb 2018 14:34:39
Exactly my point Bond,
They spring to mind more than the current Utd team ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - But it's longer than 10 years ago. And you can't name a team from Utd when they had players like Van der Sar, Ferdinand, Vidic, Ronaldo, Nani, Gary Neville, Evra, Berbatov, Rooney and Carrick on their books?}

13 Feb 2018 15:17:33
Except for de gea not one of the team would be in anyones all time team or squad. Even with all the millions thrown at the squad. I don't think they would get in a b squad either.
