I know I keep mentioning the players we let go but I think players like Syzney, Ox, Giroud, Gabriel, Coq would have made a difference and before everyone says they were crap at least we were better with them and winning more that we are with current crap!!

I don't think Le Coq was any worse than Xhaka in fact I think he was twice as good as was Ox too at least. Gabriel was 3 x the players Mustafi is and Giroud always gave a shift but was never a lone striker ready to latch onto a slick through ball.
Are we any better without them absolutely not, were we good enough with them it's an absolute no again.
We've just gone from really bad to even worse in their absence.

I honestly get what you guys are saying. But those players are not and will never be good enough for arsenal. I keep Gabriel mentioned yet he was painfully shaky at the back. I really hope we buy a lot better soon.

I'm not sure it's just buying better 16 mate i think it's also about getting better out of the players we buy, was Mustafi really that bad when he arrived? He's had a habit of stopping and appealing to the officials rather than trying to stop a goal himself since day one but was he really this bad when we paid 38 million for him? Same for Xhaka too was he always awful or has he simply become awful at Arsenal?
We can but who we want but wants the point of paying a fortune for players to ruin? We may as well buy cheap players.
Until Arsene goes I'd say all spending is a waste of money.

That is very true 62. It is odd how everyone keeps underperforming here. I kept telling my friend that lacazette isn't as bad as he is coming off. I'm sure it's lack of confidence and lack of service. Now look at aubameyang he is going down the same path lacazette went down. We really do need help and quickly.

I remember reading an article before city brought ottamendi when it was looking like he was going to Utd saying that mustafi was the better partner in the valencia defence, so I was really excited when we got him! That didn't turn out to be true though! 😂 I was much less excited about xhaka who was a liability before he came always getting sent off! I remember I was a massive critic of giroud as our main striker a few seasons back and we were never going to win the league with him, but we did always finish top 4, he knitted the team together a lot better. benching him and putting Sanchez up front seemed to be when it all went wrong, but probably more down to iwobi and welbeck being Sanchez replacements! If only we had a chance to stick with Sanchez out wide with laca or auba up front!

It's a shame 16 mate but time has been catching up with Arsene for many years now and each season that passes we get a little worse and a little less competitive than the season before.
Its already a long way back for us but if we let Arsene see out this contract we are simply settings ourselves an even bigger mountain to climb than the one we already face, as we stand I reckon we are the right man and 2-4 seasons away from being in the mix again but with another 12 months of Arsene calling the shots we can add another couple of seasons to that at least.
