1-1, Suarez & Ba.

A draw for us is not a option today.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Hopefully Cissé starts up and removes even that choice.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

nothing is wrong with 4th. Wenger success ranking made great sense...

1. The League
2. The Champions League
3. The FA Cup
4. Champions League Qualification
5. The League Cup

but we are not performing. our squad isnt forming, on the field we've clearly fallen off. the decline is linked to methods that just dont work. this isnt all about spending huge amounts. Arsenal can compete within means. its management methods.

Usmanov has touched on efficiency but make no mistake he has clearly said further investment is needed. I just think he'll end up getting sucked into throwing money around all the while bending around FFP with Gazprom banking rolling us.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

At least Wenger knows & chose the players though, no new manager will walk into a club the size of Arsenal and not want to spend a fortune. Liverpool have done that and failed miserably. Spurs managed it due to selling key players, Arsenal don't particularly have any key players to do it with.

Anyway, come on the toon.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

theres 70mil in the bank. Pep fine tuned Barca and yes did spend a fair amount but if thats not available he'll do what hes there to do anyway by fine tuning getting players performing.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Maybe he's just a git like Ashley was originally, buying new Sports Direct stores rather than players.

Getting sacked in the morning...

Here we go again.:(

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Newcastle are the type of team that can see none of the ball for 80 minutes but score three. Liverpool should know this.

This whole refereeing business conspiracy with Liverpool is annoying the crap out of me, Suarez takes a tiny knock on his foot and then proceeds to hold the back of his ankle, then throws his arms up into the air like a little girl.

This guy is going to go down fast as one of the most disgraceful players to grace this league.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

A flawed genius nevertheless though.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Well I was mostly right.

Presumably Coloccini is wearing steel toed boots or Suarez was shot at exactly the same time.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Another two points gone in another frustrating afternoon.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Oh yeah, have an owner that wants to sell, great model and that's part of the problem with the modern game, football clubs were never meant to be businesses but the heart and soul of communities.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Yes but football has already turned so businesses are a better choice than money pits.
