I am sorry can we just have a little more faith in our team, I still see too many people not being optmistic here like DG and the rest.

Theo is injured and I feel we will miss him most in the CL games and espcially against Bayern, but in the PL I think Gnabry and the Ox can do the job between themselves on that wing. We need the other players to step up in terms of Carzola, Podloski, Ozil, Ramsey.

And I do not agree this is the same situation as Eduardo. When Eduardo got injured the players were too young, and the injury was caused because of an opposition player. Gallas was too emotional as captain to get the team running back, now we have the like Sagna, Rosicky, Mertasacker, Flamini, Arteta to pull the team through this bad patch.

And Liverpool ending up 4th is not going to happen, it is going to be united, Liverpool are just about Suarez he doesn't score liverpool happen to loose those games. United have better players and more experience to see them through.

I am still optmisitic on our chances because of city's and chelsea's away form, at which we are the best.

Is this the same Suarez who was banned for the first few games and we scored and won games just fine without him.

Ox will be returning from a long injury and will take time to refind his form, he is also not as prolific as Theo.

Gnabry looks great but only time will tell and that is too much pressure to rely on him to find our goals.

Wenger seems to hate Podolski.

Ozil is great but has never been a prolific goal scorer and he has games where he is non existant.

Ramsey has been great but the goals have dried up and when he a Wilshere play together it doesn't work.

We have been and will continue to play well but we NEED a world class striker to stay in and around the top. Giroud has lost form and he cannot create chances for himself.

We are so close to greatness but unless we spend big on 2 stars in January we will slip and be involved in the battle for 4th.

Just my opinion.

I still think we need 2 players minimum a wide player and a striker ox is not a winger and gnabry won't perform week in week out he's still young and learning if we're going to win the league we need reinforcements

DG pessimistic? I think you have him confused with someone else. DG, G62, Goldboy have been a breath of fresh air on the site. Very optimistic, very passionate and bring quite a bit of humour to the site

I think I had read that all wrong as well DG lol

Lol Rue1025,

I keep reading that post and i'm still confused lol. Is he saying i'm pessimistic or not? i'm confused lol

Sorry people punctuations do make a difference, I guess I missed that little bit. What I meant is I would like a little bit more optimism from the rest like you guys mentioned.

I only dint like the fact that you mentioned we would end up 3rd or scrapping for it and I don't think Liverpool will come 4th.
