The failures of last summer continue to grow. We should have shunted out Ozil and Sanchez, whilst replacing them. I wouldn't have sold Gabriel, but as he was sold, he should have been replaced. We went into the season with no real cover at RB and our second LB playing at CB.
We need two defenders. We should have kept Szczesny and sold Ospina. We should not have extended Cazorla's deal and a suitable replacement should have been signed. Going into the season with an imbalanced squad was always going to prove problematic and this will grow as the season progresses.

Do you think we are a bit short at the back RG?

No problem with any those complaints, but the real question is who is responsible. I don't think the the notion that Wenger is all powerful applies any longer - even if it once did. That only leaves Kroenke and those responsible for financial management and human resources. I'm afraid with 'his sort' at the helm, the club is going nowhere fast and making him a tidy packet in the process.

Well, I don't think Kroenke or Gazidis runs the training sessions nor do they have any say on who we go and buy.
Maybe Chips Keswick is pulling all the strings? Vic Akers?

The buck stops with Wenger as he runs the club in accordance with his football ideology. The enigma of Wenger is that he has been successful, despite making huge errors of judgement and appearing not to understand basic footballing concepts.
