I just wanted to say

That is all.

NEXT!

17 Apr 2016 22:51:39
Wenger in. 😜.

{Ed033's Note - yes NES, i don't think Wenger is leaving Arsenal this year.

17 Apr 2016 23:26:18
Going against the grain here, but I still think we should fully back Wenger until he 'hangs up his boots' at the end of next season.

{Ed033's Note - You've got some nerve saying that on here, dags :)

17 Apr 2016 23:56:21
I agree dags. He's going to be here next season might as well get behind the guy.

17 Apr 2016 23:59:44
Duck Ed because the flak will soon be flying my way mate :-)

17 Apr 2016 19:04:45
Vroom vroom, just the raver cruising through in his Subaru to tell you that spurs will fly the flag for north London this season. The title race will go to the Last day of the season where we will win it on goal difference. keep your heads up boys and don't let spurs get you down. Next stop for the Subaru is the off licence for more cider and rizlas beep beep beep.

Ofcorsa Ravey baby corsa you will.

17 Apr 2016 20:22:33
You got corsa on the brain gunner lol.

17 Apr 2016 20:52:35
I have mate it takes me mind off football :-)

17 Apr 2016 18:05:28
Just a question to every one on this page, was this 1-1 result against Palace surprising to us, I don't think so, because when it was 1-0 till 70th minute we all knew this going to happen. And to Ed033, I know Wenger is good but we have enough of this good, we now want better or best. thanks a lot. Wenger Out.

{Ed033's Note - Good luck to Arsenal fans on Arsenal becoming Better, or The Best.

The problem is that bar United, city and Chelsea most other clubs fans would die for what we have! Just look at the other fans that come over here. You have the United fans Ctr, Rosie and badger etc that poke fun at us and know it's same old Arsenal then you get the spuds fans ne spur raver etc who can't believe how we are getting annoyed with wenger and believe we should enjoy the ride just like they are! Well we're not because the driver is pissed up.

17 Apr 2016 18:41:42
I know most of the teams would die for what we have, but we are not "that" most of the teams, we are supposed to be at the level of Man Utd, Chelsea, Man City. but we are not at that level for quite a number of years now.

17 Apr 2016 18:48:02
It just goundhog day for Arsenal again. We all now we only a few key top quality players away from be genuine contenders but we all Know Wenger will never get those players as he can't handle big name players with big ego's. He always wants to develop players and it always about future potential and never about the finished product. It's is thus always excuse for Wenger as he can't handle real expectation and pressure to win.

17 Apr 2016 18:53:12
Your right. we're no where near and we should be annoyed.

17 Apr 2016 19:08:47
The only club in Europe not to buy an outfield player last summer, our ambitions and our achiements are in tandem.
£200 million reasons it didn't have to be this way this time especially but because we've been told repeatedly season after season by our manager that top 4 is success its little wonder its where everyones expectancy level is at from players to fans.
We need someone to come in and shake the club out of this complacency and remind everyone that Arsenal football club is a very very big club that should have much more ambition than champions league qualification and last 16 exit as it's comfort zone.

17 Apr 2016 20:46:09
Gunner62.you are correct every one at arsenal are comfortable in there cukoo world . from top to bottom every one is happy apart from one or two players ( ozil, Sanchez) from what we have achieved in last few year. I hear a lot being said on this page that there is no one better then Arsene which baffels me, there are lots of manager who are better than Arsene in European leagues, it is also said that it can be worse than this so does this means we stick with him for his entire life in the fear of "oh it can be worse" . why can't be it better after him. There is a saying in Corporate world that employees are averse to changes as they are very comfortable with there daily routine with any chance they have to re-adjust themselves which a lot of them are not willing to do.

17 Apr 2016 21:29:43
Totally agree Human mate, I just cannot see both Ozil and Sanchez being Arsenal players next season.

17 Apr 2016 23:30:02
I don't get the be careful of what you wish for. i'd rather role the dice than go through the same old year in year out.

18 Apr 2016 02:42:13
Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. If I was a Arsenal fan I'd likely have been driven crazy by Wenger years ago.

17 Apr 2016 18:08:59
What started as a good season has turned out to be one of our worst for a long time. will really struggle for our 4th place trophy.

17 Apr 2016 18:02:44
72% possession
68% passes in Palace half
44 touches in Palace box

And we end up with 6 shots on target.

17 Apr 2016 17:57:21
It's actually funny now! You can imagine arsenes team talk at half time 'now come on guys remember that we should be challenging for forth guys don't let me down I want to start next season early'

It's a joke the teams he has put out and some of the players he has bought over the last ten years have been average. And wenger actually thinks it's just been bad luck that we haven't won F all . No mate it's you and you alone.

The real time live chat page is open for today's Arsenal match at the below link for you to talk to each other during the match
Arsenal Live Chat page

17 Apr 2016 14:22:21
So this page become the most disliked page on this site. The eds stopped answering the quastions and stopped providing us with info and that's because of some fans being rude or there points of view are differs.
The eds in on this site can ban or unpost what they found rude of offensive, so why not doing this instead of cutting of the whole page?
I'm just not getting it.

{Ed001's Note - because we don't have to, if people want to be arses then we will just not bother putting ourselves out.}

17 Apr 2016 14:43:12
This site is for talking about Arsenal, not for talking about Eds.

17 Apr 2016 16:06:59
I'm on here so that probably makes this the most loved page on this site.

I'll get my coat :-)

17 Apr 2016 16:01:12
Good answer Ed033 to me it's quite simple this site is free to use and there's no obligation from any Ed or poster to participate, quite simply because the fans have become so divided on the manager the fun has stopped for now but once something happens for everyone to unite behind again things will go back to when this page was buzzing almost everyday.

{Ed033's Note - Yes, and what might unite the fans could actually be that if Wenger does leave in 2017 and a new manager comes in, there is a possibility that Premier League 4th spot may not happen and all the Arsenal fans may be in agreement that the new manager must leave and everyone then might realise just how good Wenger really was as a manager.

17 Apr 2016 17:07:26
Good answer Ed033.

17 Apr 2016 17:27:13
Possibility Ed033 but equally the next manager might well not be the sort to try to convince everyone top 4 and £200 million in the bank is success each season.

{Ed033's Note - Hopefully for you, The Grass is Greener on The Other Side

17 Apr 2016 20:09:56
Ed33, I hope you didn't misunderstand me. I being on your side and want what we enjoyed on this site to return.
No one should be rude and disrespectful to anyone, as it won't achieve anything.
Its your site, and if anyone wants to be an arse should be thrown out just like I do at my pub.

{Ed033's Note - OK, got it. Let's talk about Arsenal on here and not about the Eds.

17 Apr 2016 03:02:03
We have recently been linked with many players, but Wenger has done his usual and stated that it will be difficult to sign players that will be an improvement on what we already have.
However, the following players may leave;
Certainties: Arteta, Debuchy, Flamini and Rosicky.
LIkely: Szczesny, Sanogo and Jenkinson (when fit) .
Unhappy players; Ospina, Gibbs, Oxlade and Walcott.

Looking at our squad, it is likely that Wenger will sign.
1) A back up keeper, if Ospina leaves.
2) A right back. Cover for Bellerin.
3) A left back, if Gibbs leaves.
4) One midfield player.

So one or two players for sure and the others only if there are departures. Looking at the current squad, we have 22ish players that should form part of the squad for next season, with expected departures, which leaves little room for signings, especially as Wenger has never had a full compliment of 25 over age players and likes to give younger players a chance. Not that we can rely upon keeping players fit, but we already will have a problem when we have our full compliment as we have top first team players that won't even make the bench, which would prove extremely problematic.

We have many options in midfield, attacking midfield and attack, so signings in these positions look unlikely unless players depart.

We also have youngsters coming through, such as Iwobi, Akpom, Crowley, Zelalem, etc.

I would like to see Gnabry join the first team squad. He is a talented player, but sending him out on loan clearly didn't work. I also believe Chambers needs a season on loan, to play regularly at centre back, He seems to have gone backwards since we signed him and looks poor at RB. He is young and having seen the likes of Coquelin and Ramsey improve immensely as they matured, I would like to see how much he improves by playing regularly elsewhere,

17 Apr 2016 07:22:45
Bielik is going to be a big player for us one day.

17 Apr 2016 08:44:47
That's another season of top 4 glory then, can hardly contain the excitement yipeee.

17 Apr 2016 10:21:16
I agree Bacon, watched him a few times now n he's really Impressing me at CB, definitely one to watch.

17 Apr 2016 12:12:10
4th might not be good enough this time around 62.

17 Apr 2016 16:24:02
Maybe a season in the spursday night league might be a good thing if it happens Banbury mate, 1 step back to take 10 forward might work out better than continually jogging on the spot in the long run.
